Fear is the greatest single enemy of self-confidence and self-fulfillment. It is not that you don't know what to do; it is usually that you are afraid to do what your hearts tell you to do. Strong people have strong weakness as well. Weakness are an inevitable and unavoidable fact of life. You may be strong in a few areas, but weak in hundreds of other areas.
Peter Drucker says, "all innovation must be simple if they are to work, because there are only incompetent people to carry them out". The one thing that you'll always have in abundance is incompetence. We are all brought up with feelings of inferiority and inadequacy. Our self-esteem and self-confidence are fragile. Our positive feelings about ourselves are like balloons, easily popped.
You have to work on yourself for a long time to build yourselves up to the point at which you are tough and resilient, especially in the areas in which you make mistakes often. Michael Jordan says, "everybody has talent, but to translate it into ability takes hard work". So view your (almost every) weakness as a strength inappropriately applied.
If you use your strengths where it is neither required nor helpful, it actually can be a weakness if it interferes with your ability to get the result you desire. "The very worst use of time is to do well what need not be done at all" - Benjamin Tregde. Thus, the so-called weaknesses that you might have are merely strengths being used in the wrong place and for the wrong purpose.
Beautiful morning to you. #DubemickyInspiringGreatnessDaily. Don't fail having yourself a fabulous Friday.
