Leverage Your Special Talents and Abilities
You are Different! You have special talents and abilities that make you different from every other person who has ever lived. There are certain things you can do, or learn to do, that can make you extraordinarily valuable to yourself and others. Your job is to identify your special areas of uniqueness and then to commit yourself to becoming outstanding in those areas.
Take stock of your unique talents and abilities on a regular basis. What is it that you do especially well? What are you good at? What tasks come easily to you? What do you do easily and well that is difficult for other people? Looking back at your career, what has been most responsible for your success in life and work to date? What have been your most significant accomplishments in the past?
You are designed in a way that you’ll most enjoy doing the very things that you can be the very best at. What is it that you enjoy the most about your work? What accomplishments do you enjoy the most? The fact that you enjoy something means you have the capacity to excel in that area.
Look at that various things you do. What is it that you do that gets you the most compliments and praise from others? What do you do that positively affects the work and performance of other people more than anything else?
Leaders take the time to identify what they do well and most enjoy. They know what they do, those unique talents that really makes a difference in their work-- Then they concentrate on that area of activity, exclusively, which doubles your chances of success.
Continually ask yourself these key questions:
What am I really good at? What do I enjoy the most about my work? What has been most responsible for my success in the past? If I could focus on any talent, ability, task at all, what would that be? Whatever your answers, move your focus to excel in those areas and get started TODAY.
