When you were little, you probably believed in one or more myths: the Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, Santa Claus.
For the most part, those myths were pretty harmless, except for the anguish and heartbreak you suffered when your older sibling or classmate gleefully broke the news that those beloved characters didn’t exist.
As adults, you buy into myths for different reasons:
It’s what your parents taught you, so it must be true
It’s what your friends believe, so it must be true
It’s common knowledge, so it must be true
Here is a biggie I swallowed hook, line and sinker for years, and I know lots of other people have, too:
I don’t have any real talent. That’s why I’ll never really be fulfilled by what I do for work. Sure, there’s some stuff I’m good at, but it’s really nothing special, not like having real skills to be an engineer, webmaster, salesperson, or so many other professions.
This is the myth of talent, and I am making the case at Engaged Marriage that you do, indeed, have talent.
You may just not have recognized or located it yet.
I can help you with that!
And I can testify that when you actually identify and begin to work with and develop that talent, how much more happiness you will discover in your life. I know I did!
Please join me at Engaged Marriage for a change in perspective and a potential new lease on your work life. I’d love to hear your thoughts, so come on over!
I’ve shut off the comments here so that we keep the conversation in one place.
