Identify
your natural talents and abilities
One
of the components of a satisfying career is a job that utilizes
your natural talents and abilities. We
tend to think about these traits as we create our resume and prep for
interviews, so some of them are obvious to us. But some aren’t and we often discount things
we’re good at because we assume everyone else is good at the same thing or we
believe that it does not qualify as anything special.
Don’t
sell yourself short! Give some thought to
your natural talents and those which you’d like to be able to use in a job. Ask
yourself these
questions:
What
are things people compliment you on?
What
do they seek your advice or opinion on?
What
is your greatest strength?
Then
take it a step further. Ask people you know what they think your gifts and
talents are. You might get some surprising
answers! Good luck finding a fulfilling career path.
If
you need help, you know where to find me!
