Turn Hidden Talents Into Extraordinary Advantage

The Break - with Michael Gardon

#518:

I dove headfirst into finance for one reason.

Money.

As a 20 year old I simply neglected who I was, and looked to go to the place I could make a lot of money.

How ignorant.

I ignored my real talents.

Despite natural skills in writing, speaking, and presenting, I chose the expected path.

Here’s the truth: Our system, from college to career, often buries our genuine strengths under a pile of “shoulds.” It took me too long to listen, to unearth those dormant skills, and truly embrace them.

Why share this? Because you, too, have untapped potential, overshadowed by what you’ve been told to pursue.

Let’s challenge that. It’s time to dig deep, uncover our real talents, and redefine our paths.
