Throughout my years of schooling, I was always told to focus on improving my weaknesses. I was never great at the sciences and I was constantly told to put more off my time and effort to improve. While I think it is important to always work on improving all your skills, I think there is merit to focus most of your energy on improving your strengths. Everyone is born with unique natural abilities, and if we all focused on what we do best, we would be able to bring so much value to the community.
We should celebrate our strengths and make them a priority. If you are a terrible musician, but you are a wonderful writer, focus on getting even better at writing. Strive to not only be good at writing, but great.
If you are not sure what your strengths are, I encourage you to buy the book Strength Finders 1.0 on Amazon. This book does a great job explaining the concept of focusing on your strengths and also helping you figure out what you are best at.
What do you think your strengths are? Feel free to share below :)
