We shine on the basis our strengths.
But often relying too much on our strengths could limit our possibilities.
A good war time general seeks war even when it's time to make peace.
A cost-focused corporate leader cuts costs even when it's time to spend and grow.
A super-diligent worker focuses on perfection even when it's time to move fast with 'quick and dirty' solutions.
You get the drift.
As you grow in life and career, it helps to reflect and ask: what's good about me that may be preventing me from becoming better.
As they say: what got you here won't take you there!
