I started out many years ago as an apprentice baker, I quickly realized that the cakes I made would make a sword-swallower gag!
I then moved into the field of accountancy, I then realized that there are three types of people in the world, those that can count and those that can’t!
Even learning to drive, I was that well known in the driving centre in Finglas that I became godfather to one of the instructor’s children!
The myth, we can put our mind to anything, forms part of the ‘power of positive thinking school’ which suggests that success is simply a matter of hard work.
This assumes that we are all clones, possessing an identical set of talents.
This is of course false, we all have our own unique set of strengths.
When I work with my clients, we first identify what these strengths are and then look at building on them.
This is what will give real long term success.
