What am I really good at?
What am I really good at?
Sunday, July 23rd, 2023
We all have strengths and skills that we’re naturally better at than others - whether it is because we were more inclined to develop them or we grew in an environment that cultivated them at an early age. Just because you can learn any skill doesn’t necessarily mean you’d enjoy the learning journey or that learning the skill is the best use of your time. We know developing our strengths happens faster than working on our weaknesses because of the relationship between enjoyment and learning. Knowing our strengths allows us to focus on the things we’re really good at, to signal where we belong on teams, and to steer away from jobs, projects, and effort on things that will drain us.
Below, I offer some recommended resources to assist you with the question of the week. I’ll post my reflection on Wednesday afternoon on my?Instagram page .?
