Everyone has strengths and everyone has weaknesses

Everyone has strengths and everyone has weaknesses. Yet all too often we obsess over the things we can’t do and ignore the things we can.

— from The Relationship With Yourself (Traits/Reflection) · High Performance written by Jake Humphrey, Prof Damien’s Hughes

In the book

That kind of radical responsibility is not a burden; it is the very thing that makes you feel empowered rather than tossed about, because the person who refuses responsibility is, by definition, always waiting for someone else to be responsible for them. But be fair in the accounting, too: everyone alive has both strengths and weaknesses, and yet all too often we obsess over the few things we cannot do and ignore the many things we can. And one warning at the threshold: do not be too full of yourself. — The Relationship With Yourself (Traits/Reflection)
