The ‘flaws’ make it beautiful.
One of my clients recently told me (and gave permission to quote this),
I realize that my perceived weaknesses were actually my greatest strengths, and now my work depends on those ‘weaknesses’.”
That’s actually a common experience! A trait in ourselves we’ve hated turns out to be our biggest gift!!
And our career fulfillment might depend on uncovering that gift.
I was filling out a business profile recently and noticed that alongside the blanks for my name and website address was a blank for “Your Superpower.” I love that! And it got me thinking.
What would you put? I discovered it was a worthwhile exercise to decide.
When I talk about superpowers, I’m talking about what are you uniquely really good at. Everyone has something that makes them stand out. Something that comes so easy for you, yet is not typical for others.
In order to excel in your work or get that job offer, it helps to know what makes you unique.
I’ll explain how to find your superpowers and what I learned about my own superpowers.
