How to avoid the thorny path

いばらの道を歩まない方法

Hello! This is Orcel Saito.

Even Michael Jordan, the god of basketball, could never become the "Michael Jordan" of golf or baseball, no matter how hard he tried.

It's not that if you work hard you can become anything you want to be.

Focusing on your weaknesses and weaknesses will not only waste your time, but it will also cause you to miss out on the results you could have achieved.

By knowing our strengths and talents and focusing our energy on them, we can achieve great growth.

StrengthsFinder has been used by over 15 million people in over 100 countries around the world to learn about their own strengths.

I tried this about 10 years ago, but it came up again during an MBA seminar, so I decided to try it again.

If you purchase the book "Now, Awaken Your Talents," you can take the online test.
A new edition called StrengthsFinder 2.0 has been released.

If you try it, you will be able to clearly identify your own qualities and be motivated to make better use of them and put them to good use in your work and life, so if you have never done it before, I recommend you give it a try.

It also helps you learn what kind of people your colleagues and the people around you are, so it's recommended to try it with your company, friends, or family.

Compared to 10 years ago, four of the top five strengths are the same, but one has changed and is now the top strength, so I think we may have grown a little.

1. Strategic
2. Activeness
3. Desire for achievement
4. Future-oriented
5. Self-assurance

I was happy to see that after 10 years, an intellectual element called "strategy" had finally been added.
There was absolutely no mention of "harmony with others" this time either.

I thought I'd introduce this to you because I believe it's useful to objectively look at your strengths, whether you're in business or running an online shop.

If you're interested, please give it a try!
