Developing strength
I had a conversation this week that got the gears in my head moving. This guy’s claim was that every strength I have today was once a weakness. While the guy was trying to sell me something, the premise struck a chord.
At the time, it made me think back on what I’ve learned over the course of my career. What I feel like I’m good at today is very different than what I was good at when I started my career. At the beginning of my professional life, I followed through on details and got the work done. While that’s still true to an extent, now the level of detail I pay attention to is much higher. My strengths are in strategic and future-focused thinking – and that’s where I get my energy at work. Looking back, I realize what a journey it’s been to develop that ability to think at 30,000 feet.
His statement resonated even further when I thought about my physical self. I am returning to the practice of yoga. I’ve done yoga off and on over the past couple of years. Honestly, I surprise myself with how much I like it.
I signed up for a series of classes offered through work, but didn’t dig the experience. The conference room with a canvas tarp over the flooring created ab ambiance that was less than optimal. It got me moving but didn’t allow me to really tap into my self. I couldn’t really concentrate. Meh. So, yesterday I returned to a studio.
His words returned to me as I worked through the class. Approaching yoga as a practice has been really helpful for me as I work to hold poses. It helps me to notice how different my last downward dog is from my first. I know that with each practice I’ll get stronger.
I guess that’s the point, what you practice, you improve. Some of the positions are difficult, but if I practice I will get stronger.
Huh. So I guess this guy was right. Every weakness you have can be a strength if you work on it and have the right outlook. I’m going to continue to ponder about this, to think about what else I can improve. What about you?

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the page layout of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

Bạn có biết các giống mèo hiện tại chưa. Mèo là thú cưng được nhiều người thương yêu nhất hiện nay. Tuy nhiên bạncòn chưa có đủ kinh nghiệm để phân biệt các giống mèo. Việc lựa chọn một chú mèo về làm thú cưng không đơn giản chỉ là mua và bán nếu bạn không hiểu tính cách và lối sống của chúng thì chắc chắn rằng chúng sẽ bị bệnh ngay lập tức.
