There is nothing wrong with being aware of our weaknesses and managing them, but our greatest opportunity for success lies in building on our natural talents.

Let’s start now to identify and maximize each person’s talents and strengths.

1. Attractiveness - to what kind of activities are naturally drawn?

2. Learning-what kinds of activities do seem to pick up quickly?

3. Flow-in what activities did you seem to automatically know the steps to be taken?

4. Excellence-doing what activities have you had moments of subconscious excellence when you thought how did I do that?

5. Satisfaction-what activities give you a kick either while doing them or immediately after finishing them and you think when can I do that again?
