Our greatest Strengths are our greatest weaknesses. I am not entirely sure if I agree with this statement. Aren’t we meant to gain strength from our weaknesses and grow on that? I’m not really sure how a strength can actually turn around to become a weakness.
Of course it’s important for each person to know where there strengths and weaknesses lie but a strength becoming a weakness. This topic really got me thinking and after a few scratched on the head and a few questions here and there, I realized that this is actually possible; our greatest strengths can become our greatest weakness.
Okay here’s how: Have you ever noticed how when someone realises that they are really good at something, the head starts to inflate and they find themselves floating above everyone and everything else. That’s just it. When people realise their strengths, they allow it to go to their heads and the it in turn becomes their weaknesses. There are many examples in the world we live in. Good actors or singers with ridiculous demands. Sports stars. The minute they realise the crowd loves them and they are good at what they do, the head inflates.
So after much contemplation about the statement our greatest strengths can actually become our greatest weaknesses.
