I’m partial to leaning in to your strengths. You can find other people to make up for your deficiencies.
While it is beneficial to be aware of your weaknesses and have personal cues to avoid falling into them, it is very challenging to improve a weakness. It’s best to focus on your strengths and consistently show tangible improvements. You’ll feel better about yourself, too.
