Raw Talent
By Erec Lindberg
Raw talent is one of our largest
untapped resources.
Everyone has raw talent: abilities and interests that remain
undeveloped and unexpressed. By discovering or rediscovering
your unused raw talents, you can bring more balance to your life,
revive a job or lifestyle that has grown unsatisfying, or develop
a new engine of income.
Many people stop developing their raw
talent once
they become embedded in the workforce. Mistake! In today's
job market, we have to be flexible, ready to move to new areas,
within a company or outside of it. Also, people are demanding
higher levels of fulfillment, which requires investment of
personal and career growth. Or perhaps the career you thought
you wanted-or were told you wanted-is no longer for you. This
is where your raw talent can be your strongest asset.
Let your preferences lead you.
We all excel at what
arouses our interest or passion. The energy you feel when
yelling for your favorite team can be focused into commitment
to developing an area of raw talent.
Revive past interests, such as hang
gliding, a daily
walk at sunset with your partner, painting, or writing.
Nurture underused skills, such as public speaking, animal
breeding, mentoring, or a flair for research. Keep in mind the
raw talent that you begin with may lead you to the raw talent
you really want to build on. You have to start somewhere.
Another indication of raw talent is hearing others talk about
some activity and wishing you could try it. You can!
Be honest with yourself. Ask yourself where you will be in
ten years, if you stay with the same job. Look around at
co-workers who have already achieved those ten years-do they
seem happy? Finally, would you advise younger people you care
about to follow your exact life?
If the answers are negative, you may
be ready to make
new choices. Think of the feelings of freedom and possibility
you had at college graduation. Think what it would be like to
again experience that excitement, learning, and growth.
Just an hour a day can do it. Add
just one hour per day
pursuing a talent or interest you currently ignore. Enjoyable
in itself, this time can improve your attitude all day long.
Developing your awareness of what attracts you and spending time
with these activities can also help you understand what you want
in other areas of life.
Daily structure keeps you moving
forward. There are
many ways to add structure: keep a daily log, join a self-help
group, find a mentor or role model, or read motivational books.
Structure is what life-coaching is all about, helping to pull
you forward when you are not strong or disciplined enough on
your own. Invest in yourself and in your raw talent; I use the
rule of spending up to 10% of my income to invest in my career
and personal self-development.
Weekly goals make you show up.
Weekly goals bring
instant results that add up quickly over a period of months.
Yes, many times I wait until the end of the week to dig in, and
sometimes I don't fully meet my weekly goals, but even that is
more than I would have done had I not made the commitment.
Develop your insights.
Insights can open up all areas
of your life, from what you wear to whom you love. Learning to
act on these insights produces self-awareness, a major part of
designing the lives we want to live. Combining our insights and
our raw talents with actions can bring experiences that we have
only observed or read about.
Clear out tolerations and
distractions. Two basic
problems can interfere with our progress. Tolerations are
those things we no longer enjoy, but which we put up with out
of habit, fear, or not wanting to make waves. As a coach, I
help clients clear out these bottlenecks in three areas:
living space, personal life, and career.
Once you are no longer dragged down by what you have been
tolerating, you have time and energy to develop raw talent.
Distractions are usually genuinely enjoyable, but still
interfere with what is even more important to us. Not everyone
needs to throw out their TV, as I did, but you do need to
honestly face what is distracting you from living the life
you want to live.
Which makes more sense: wasting
time and money to
distract yourself from your dissatisfaction, or investing in
your own raw talent, building a life you are satisfied with?

QUOTES To Get You Thinking
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The chief danger in life is that you may take too may precautions.
Alfred Adler
Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by
dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways.
Stephen Vincent Benét
It's like déjà vu all over again.
Yogi Berra
Beauty: That power by which a woman charms a lover and
terrifies a husband.
Ambrose Bierce:
Too much credit is given to the end result. The true lesson is
in the struggle that takes place between the dream and reality.
That struggle is a thing called life!
Garth Brooks

of the Day by Ted Goff. http://www.bizsuccess.com/cartoon.htm
------------
Ski season is here! Hence, the following list of exercises to
get you prepared:
16. Visit your local butcher and pay $30 to sit in the walk-
in freezer for a half an hour. Afterwards, burn two $50
dollar bills to warm up.
15. Soak your gloves and store them in the freezer after
every use.
14. Fasten a small, wide rubber band around the top half of
your head before you go to bed each night.
13. If you wear glasses, begin wearing them with glue smeared
on the lenses.
12. Throw away a hundred dollar bill-now.
11. Find the nearest ice rink and walk across the ice 20
times in your ski boots carrying two pairs of skis, accessory
bag and poles. Pretend you are looking for your car.
Sporadically drop things.
10. Place a small but angular pebble in your shoes, line them
with crushed ice, and then tighten a C-clamp around your
toes.
9. Buy a new pair of gloves and immediately throw one away.
8. Secure one of your ankles to a bedpost and ask a friend to
run into you at high speed.
7. Go to McDonald's and insist on paying $8.50 for a
hamburger. Be sure you are in the longest line.
6. Clip a lift ticket to the zipper of your jacket and ride a
motorcycle fast enough to make the ticket lacerate your face.
5. Drive slowly for five hours - anywhere - as long as it's
in a snowstorm and you're following an 18-wheeler.
4. Fill a blender with ice, hit the pulse button and let the
spray blast your face. Leave the ice on your face until it
melts. Let it drip into your clothes.
3. Dress up in as many clothes as you can and then proceed to
take them off because you have to go to the bathroom.
2. Slam your thumb in a car door. Don't go see a doctor.
1. Repeat all of the above every Saturday and Sunday until
it's time for the real thing!
