Do you know what your talents in business are? Discovering
your hidden business talents is your surest key to success. Focusing on your
natural talents can help you develop them into strengths for business. This is
because your greatest improvements will only come from identifying your natural
talents and strengthening them. What are your talents? These are natural
reoccurring patterns of thought and behavior. Talents are fixed. You need to
perform personality and psychological tests to enable you discover them.
Do you know that there are many people out there who will
pay you to benefit from what you know? Do you know that if you are better at
something than most people are, then you are gifted in that area? You simply
need to think and dig deep and uncover them. This is how it works: You prosper
when you make other people prosper and you create value for yourself when you
create value for others. At the end you are financially rewarded for it. Successful
people are hard workers. But the difference between their hard work and the
hard work of others who work long hours to earn a meager salary is that
successful people are not even aware that they are working hard. They simply
enjoy what they are doing, they feel they are fulfilling their potentials and
in the process are rewarded with lots of money, recognition and success.
In order to identify what your talents are, you need to make
a list of everything you enjoy doing. This list should include those things
that give you joy and fulfillment when you do them. It doesn’t matter how long
the list is, just go ahead and make it.
Next, you need to make a list of all the things you are good
at. This list is quite different from the initial list you made. You will
notice that in the first list you identified the things you enjoy doing. In
this list you are trying to identify knowledge and skill.
By now you already have a list of all the things you enjoy
doing and all the things you are good at doing. You also have a clear picture
of what your talents and skills are. You are now giving yourself the opportunity
to harness those skills. Go through both lists thoroughly. Identify the top
priorities on those lists. Preferably identify the first four or five items on
both lists. You will have filtered out the top things you enjoy doing and those
you are good at. Match these items. You have automatically identified multiple
streams of income by doing what you enjoy doing and have knowledge at while
earning an income out of it. For instance, you may enjoy watching football on
your first list but you may not be good at playing football. On the other hand
in your second list you may notice you are very good at writing. Merging both
skills affords you the opportunity to benefit financially by giving football
lovers current information concerning the game of football which they will be
willing to pay for. Naturally you will reap financial fortune because you are
doing what you enjoy doing and are good at. You are equally creating value for
others and deriving satisfaction from doing this. Do not worry if you are not
making so much money at the beginning. Be patient. Sooner or later things will
pick up.
