Stop Using Your Left Hand

Sometimes it can hold you back

Most people are really good at something. And if they are not, then they most likely could get really good at something, with some time, practice, and initiative.

Most of us have some type of strength. Not always physical strength, but something else.

Some of us are smart. Some of us are great with people. Others can work well with their hands. Or are born to lead. Or are responsible.

And if you don’t have any apparent strengths — you’re well-rounded (which is a strength).

The number of strengths is too great to completely list.

But I have noticed that most people don’t use their strengths very often.

They focus more on weaknesses — on what they lack — rather than what they are really good at.

This Is the Best Interview Question

A common interview question is one that nearly everyone prepares for: what is your biggest weakness?

Of course, the questioner really does not want to know what someone’s biggest weakness is. In fact, if you tell them an actual weakness, then you might harm your chances of securing a position.
