3 Ways To Find Your Gift

I believe that God has put gifts and talents and ability on the inside of every one of us. When you develop that and you believe in yourself and you believe that you’re a person of influence and a person of purpose, I believe you can rise up out of any situation. Joel Osteen

Inspiring words right? Only if you believe them.

Here is the thing.

Many of us don’t really know our gifts and talents

And when we do know, we don’t necessarily know what to do with them

So let’s try to solve at least one of these issues now

Ways to find your gifts:

The very logical way is to find your gift is to yourself…

1. What is the one common theme that is repetitive in your life?

2. What would 5 people say about you that makes you unique?

3. What comes easy to you? What do you love to talk about?

 

Problem with the above method is I don’t have five people I personally want to ask to validate me (strong word I know) as more than likely I won’t believe them…

 

The funner way (yes I know funner is not a word) to find your gift…

  1. Try everything (please keep it legal lol)
  2. Reflect and find out what you liked about it
  3. Do it as often as humanly possible AKA develop it, make it a habit of excellence

The third (and not for everyone) way to find your gift

Close your eyes

Imagine you have just landed in airport security

Exiting the airport

The clerk asks: business or pleasure

You reply both

What does both look like? Write it down (the first thought)

Then develop whatever came up

Is that it?

Erm pretty much. If you want three ways to know why you are unique check out my post on point of difference

Here’s to staying confident consistently ✊
