When we think of skills we would like to possess it's usually something like leadership, problem-solving, development, etc. What is an underrated skill you would like to develop and why does it seem so valuable to you? I personally think a lot of people would benefit from developing their emotional intelligence and the ability to listen to what someone is saying rather than just hearing it.

Manipulation. So I can get what I want... Lol just kidding. I'm trained in design, but know very little about development. I guess I just wish I knew how to code (though that's not really underrated at all) so I could come up with the clever ui/ux AND actually build a real version which is identical.
