This is based on the list of things a "competent person" ought to be able to do, from Heinlein's Time Enough For Love


Bold the ones you know you can do because you've done them, italicize the ones you think you could do with a reasonable amount of competence.

A human being should be able to:

change a diaper
plan an invasion
butcher a hog
conn a ship
design a building
write a sonnet
balance accounts
build a wall
set a bone
comfort the dying
take orders
give orders
cooperate
act alone
solve equations
analyze a new problem
pitch manure (even got *paid* for it)
program a computer
cook a tasty meal
fight efficiently
die gallantly

Several of the above I might be able to do ok. With a bit of practice. But I can't be sure of it.

And the last two get interesting anyway.
