56 The Unlock Moment Box of Keys #5: Freedom To Be Imperfect
In my book The IDEA Mindset, I wrote “Freedom is the day you realise that it’s ok not to be good at everything. Choose the path that plays to your strengths.” It sounds so obvious, but often the simplest things are the ones you need to pay most attention to. I spent a lot of my life trying to overcome my weaknesses and fill my gaps. I noticed what I couldn’t do much more than I noticed what I did really well. It led me down a lot of divergent paths as I saw myself as some kind of human multitool that needed to do a bit of everything. This week's exercise is about acknowledging and activating your strengths. In it you’ll find some freedom. And with that freedom you’ll start to unlock some of that potential that’s been stored up - ready for the day you can open the box and let it fly.
