Put in the tags:

Which of these are you currently Real Good At, and still growing and improving?

Which are you currently Real Good At but in the process or in danger of becoming rusty through lack of practice?

Which were you Real Good At at some point in your life, but are no longer at that level because you stopped using it and lost the skill over time?

Which are you just starting the process of Getting Real Good At?

Which would you like to Get Real Good At someday but haven’t yet had enough hours in the day to put in the time?

And

Which would you theoretically like to Get Real Good At, but realistically given time and energy constraints it’s not a priority and probably never will be?

Feel free to include other skills besides those listed, and to adjust the categories to those that make sense for you!

There aren't enough fucking hours in the day to get real good at chess, violin, piano, singing, crosswords, film photography, contemporary dance, literary analysis, writing, film criticism, historical analysis, political commentary, tennis, Latin, French, German, Italian, identification of invertebrates, programming, cooking, musical composition, watercolour painting, philosophy, stage acting, fencing, psychoanalysis, and sickoposting online.
