Gifts are those talents and abilities that flow almost effortlessly from us. Gifts are sometimes confused with skills. While skills can be developed, gifts are something we are born with—they are what we discover as we try new things and find that some things are as natural to us as breathing.
When we intentionally make a decision to create our life and work based on our gifts, we are not only more likely to succeed, but can also more thoroughly enjoy the journey toward creating andrealizing our full potential.
Take inventory of your life to determine where you are utilizing learned and developed skills as
opposed to expressing and honoring your innate gifts. Are you operating based on what you think you “ought” to be doing or are you living an authentic life that is rich and fulfilling?
Even if you are not in a place to pursue a new career based on your gifts, look for ways to make your gifts known to others and demonstrate them in as many areas of your life as possible. The more your gifts are called upon, the more naturally you will fully accept and promote those gifts. The more you express your life through your innate gifts, the more you will excel. It’s a beautifully self- perpetuating process once you make the decision to begin.
Your gifts are your signature, your unique paintbrushes—use them to express your greatness and make your mark on the world!此段固定词组有哪些
