Stop focusing on people’s weaknesses!

by Rick Baker
On Nov 6, 2014

Our habit of 'focusing on weaknesses' may have started in our family homes when we were infants or toddlers.

Or, our habit of ‘focusing on weaknesses’ may have started when we met our first teachers.

Or, it may have started through the hands of neighbourhood bullies.

Or, it may have started when we joined the workforce and received our first performance appraisal.

The point is - it happened.

If fate was kind to us and we received a balance of positive/supportive feedback to offset the barrage of ‘focus on weaknesses’ then…we certainly were among the fortunate few!

Most people have received much more negative feedback than positive feedback.

Most people have become accustomed to focusing on weaknesses…their weaknesses, other people’s weaknesses, employees’ weaknesses, etc.

And, that’s the Problem.

You can choose to be part of the Solution!
