Look for a pattern of experiences that you’ve had throughout your entire life. Of course you have to enjoy them. And of course, you must use it in the future to feel satisfied and happy. That’s really the fundamental principle. The ideal is to really focus on your strengths to the fullest.
Book Excerpt
Champion Your Career
In the workplace, we are often assigned tasks we don’t like and are not good at. We’ll probably do the task or project with a lack of zeal. But it’s not what we love. If possible, it is really better to give it to someone who enjoys doing it. This is a mistake that a lot of employers make, particularly on teams. They give people tasks they don’t like to do and guess what? They don’t get done very well. Part of the concept of dependable strengths is that if you know what they are you can say, “Well, I can do this.” One of the last pieces of working with dependable strengths is using your strengths in working with others. It’s great when people do a project together and say, “I will do this because I’m really good at it and I love it.” Imagine you have a team and everybody on it is doing what they love to do. I mean, imagine the power of that? It’s just fantastic.
