Book Review: Talent is Never Enough by @JohnCMaxwell
John Maxwell explains that talented people have to work as hard, or even harder, than anyone else to make use of their talents. Talent is not a free pass; it takes choices in order for your telent to be maximized. Every person on this earth has talents to some extent. Some find their talents at a young age and some never find them. John Maxwell says, whether you’re a highly talented person or not, you’ll make or break yourself through the choices you make. There are 13 choices you must make to become a “talent-plus person”:
1. Belief Lifts Your Talent.
2. Passion energizes your talent.
3. Initiative Activates your talent.
4. Focus directs your talent.
5. Preparation positions your talent.
6. Practice sharpens your talent.
7. Perseverance sustains your talent.
8. Courage tests your talent.
9. Teach-ability expands your talent.
10. Character protects your talent.
11. Relationships influence your talent.
12. Responsibility strengthens your talent.
13. Teamwork multiplies your talent.
John Maxwell goes through deep detail for each choice and how to you can apply it to your own life. I’d suggest your listen to the audio CD or read the book, it’s more than worth your time.
