Let’s talk about the best of the best; the people out there succeeding and making their mark on their world.

They aren’t average, right? And they’re definitely not mediocre. Instead, they’re expert heavyweights in their fields; the go-to humans for their particular niche.

And that’s because they’ve found what they’re good at (aka their talent), and they’ve invested in it until their growth and performance is practically unparalleled.

That’s the power of talent. And by learning how to consciously find ways to apply your talents to your goals, your ability to perform with excellence increases exponentially.

Basically? Hello success and farewell mediocrity.

How can my so-called talents actually help me succeed?

You’ve probably been told at least once, “You can do whatever you want to do.” And that’s great advice. But it also has its limitations. Because the reality is that a person who has always struggled with numbers is unlikely to be a genius accountant (or enjoy doing it!)

This is because you can’t really “fix” your weaknesses. The more you try, the more stuck you become.

So what are we meant to do with them? I believe a better approach to managing your weaknesses is to be aware of them, account for them, and use your strengths to manage and produce results.

(My workshop walks you through what this looks and feels like in the real world.)

In other words, you *could* focus on your weakness and – with a lot of work and pressure - become “average” at it. Or you could focus on your talent and become a master (and a magnet for success) in a way that feels easy, effortless and aligned.

Shouldn’t I be focusing on fixing my weaknesses?

Building on your talent isn’t something that’s really encouraged in our modern world. Instead, we’re told to focus on what we’re bad at, and invest all of our time and energy into bringing that weakness up to speed (more on that soon).

Except, Gallup’s research shows that the most successful people start with their natural talent, then add knowledge, skills, and practice to the mix.

By tackling it this way, their talent serves as an accelerator to performance. It’s like adding kindling to a fire – it fuels the flame. It also offers the greatest opportunities for success and growth.

And by investing in areas where you already have a natural tendency for excellence, you are more likely to develop world-class performance and to do so more quickly.

If I’m already good at something, should I even bother learning more about it?

I hear you (and I understand where you’re coming from – I used to feel the same way!)

But the thing is, talent is a naturally occurring pattern of thought, feeling or behaviour. When something comes naturally to you, it’s easy and effortless because you *are* so naturally good at it. That’s your talent: those things that feel easy to you are not always so easy for other people.

In this workshop, I’ll show you ways to uncover your talents and intentionally leverage them to drive more success.

I don’t have any talents. For real. This workshop will be a waste of my money and your time.
