OUR APPROACHES TO WEAKNESSES
SUCK
Try harder“If I beat my head against the wall long enough, the
wall will surrender”
APPROACH #1
Carrots and sticks
“Maybe I can trick myself into doing it”
APPROACH #2
Willpower is finite
THE PROBLEM IS
Returns are limited
AND
We can do better

than perfect

Does it stand in the way of what you are trying to
accomplish?
A STRENGTH THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE
Alter your context
What looks like a character problem might be an environmental problem
Partner with others
Two strengths are better than one.
A STRENGTH MISHANDLED
Identify the strength
Learn more about the strength
Learn about other people
