Your strengths aren't just nice-to-have qualities but powerful engines for accelerated growth and development. Building on what you're naturally good at creates more energy, confidence, and results than constantly trying to fix your weaknesses.
• Poll question: Do you focus more on improving weaknesses or strengths?
• You grow faster when building on what you're great at
• Personal story of losing momentum in strengths while fixing weaknesses
• The strengths-based approach increases energy and confidence
• We often downplay our natural talents because they come easily
• Your "zone of genius" might be someone else's daily struggle
• Double down on strengths you've been treating as ordinary
• Apply your strengths in new situations (encouragement in conflict, analytics in relationships)
• Marcus Buckingham: "You grow most in your areas of strengths"
• Operating from strengths builds confidence and resilience
