Know What Conditions Make You Successful
Understand that you won’t always shine in certain environments. Your talents and strengths might be wonderful, but sometimes we are top of our game in one environment and fail miserably in another environment. “Weaknesses” sometimes are simply strengths out of context. So it is important to not only reflect on your performance but also on the conditions under which you were successful.
I was once asked to give a thirty-minute talk at a breakfast meeting of fifteen CEOs. I thought it was a fabulous marketing opportunity, so I agreed. The talk went amazingly well, with several of the CEOs calling me to do work with their organizations. I scratched my head, wondering what was different about this talk that made it so successful.
