Most people think they know what they are good at. They are usually wrong

    I agree with doubling down on strengths and maximize your talents, but don't think you should outright avoid weaknesses.

    If you were to avoid your perceived weaknesses, you lose out on opportunities to grow. Like the attitude that "I'm not good at communicating with people" could lead your path in a constrained direction. That's a bit extreme and sort of my point on not being open to challenging your weaknesses. You still need some balance, especially at core skills.

    You may surprise yourself. I think you should give "weaknesses" a go a bit and see what you can do if you dive in at it for a week. I've surprised myself many times trying new areas I didn't think I had a talent for, and I'm way better for it, and it has opened up strengths I didn't know I had.

      That's true, we had the same conversation with my partners in the office the last day. I think that this suggestion can apply at the moment of deciding what you can do in a team in the daily basis, meanwhile, you can improve your weaknesses.
