Strengths


In your professional life, I think it’s far better to be very, very good at one or two things and just marginal at the rest than to be merely good at lots of things.

“Working on your weaknesses makes you a complete player, but you won’t be dangerous anymore. That’s why I work on strengths.” — Roger Federer

You can’t make your mark unless you’re very, very good at something.

These are challenging words to hear for the girl who has been a bit of an 'all-arounder' all of my life. Not quite exceptional at any one thing, but pretty decent at most. Hmmmm, what do you think? Raise our kids to concentrate on that one special gift, or encourage them to try and become proficient at many?
