Say you only have time to focus on improving one thing in your life right now, what should you focus on: something you\u2019re good at or an area you\u2019re weak?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Most people will argue that you should focus on your strengths. With books like Strengths Based Leadership and Now, Discover Your Strengths<\/a>, authors have made a living out of arguing that we should give up trying to fix our flaws and double down on what makes us great.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s just one problem with this advice: it often doesn\u2019t work!<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t just because life is complicated and every situation calls for a unique response. Instead, I think the dividing line between whether something is a weakness you should work on or ignore is actually fairly clear and simple.<\/p>\n

When You Should Focus on Your Strengths<\/h2>\n

The logic behind focusing on your strengths is one of specialization and increasing returns to mastery.<\/p>\n

Albert Einstein didn\u2019t need to be a good painter, baker or tailor. He could enjoy art, eat cookies and wear suits all made by somebody else. Spending more time trying to improve his pastry-making skills would have robbed him of precious hours to develop general relativity.<\/p>\n

Similarly, the value of Einstein\u2019s science came from breakthrougths at the edge of human knowledge. Had he only gotten halfway to the frontier of his day, that wouldn\u2019t be useful. Either you develop new science, or you don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

This illustrates the central case for focusing on strengths:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Specialization is possible.<\/strong> Einstein\u2019s muffin baking can be safely ignored. <\/li>\n
  2. Mastery matters.<\/strong> Einstein\u2019s success depended on being the best physicist, not merely a mediocre one.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    When You Should Focus on Your Weaknesses<\/h2>\n

    The logic behind fixing your weaknesses is one of bottlenecks and inescapable elements.<\/p>\n

    Suppose, for instance, that Albert Einstein, brilliant visualizer and imaginative thinker he was, couldn\u2019t do math. In contrast to his lack of baking talent, this indeed would be a major failure. For it wasn\u2019t merely thought experiments that led to his success in science, but turning those thought experiments into math that others could put to the test.<\/p>\n

    The math behind general relativity, for instance, was so fearsome that it took Einstein years to wrap his mind around it. His biographer even argues he developed stomach problems due to the stress. Yet, the math was inescapable. It had to be done or the work didn\u2019t count.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n

    Einstein can\u2019t outsource \u201cdoing the math\u201d to someone else because it is intrinsically tied up in his work as a physicist. Similarly, he can\u2019t outsource \u201ccommunicating his idea\u201d as how would he be able to do it?<\/p>\n

    This illustrates the central case for fixing weaknesses:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Separation is impossible<\/strong>. Einstein can\u2019t get someone else to do the math. <\/li>\n
    2. Weaknesses worsen the whole<\/strong>. If Einstein’s math is bad, the theory will be bad. Failure in one will undermine the entire enterprise.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      The Dividing Line Between Fixing and Ignoring Weaknesses<\/h2>\n

      With these two paradigmatic cases in mind, let\u2019s walk through a few questions you can ask yourself to decide if you should fix your weaknesses or focus only on your strengths:<\/p>\n

      1. Can You Outsource Your Weakness?<\/h3>\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n

      Is it possible to get somebody else to work on your weak point? If you can hire, delegate, purchase or abstract away the thing you\u2019re not as good at, this is often a better solution than trying to fix weaknesses.<\/p>\n

      2. Can You Ignore\/Downplay Your Weakness?<\/h3>\n
      \n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

      Even if a weakness can\u2019t be outsourced, it can safely be ignored. If you\u2019re a writer who isn\u2019t very funny, you don\u2019t need to be comedic in your prose. If you\u2019re bad at math, you can avoid making your career rest on numerical virtuosity.<\/p>\n

      3. Do You Want to Improve Your Weakness?<\/h3>\n
      \n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

      Sometimes a weakness is merely an undiscovered strength. It\u2019s often through lack of practice, rather than genuine lack of talent, that our weaknesses hobble us. Therefore, if you actually want to improve your weakness, that might be the best sign to work on it more than anything else.<\/p>\n

      Of course, the opposite is also true. If you hate working on your weakness, and you more motivated to tackle something you\u2019re great at, that may be a better path to follow. Whether those weaknesses can or should be ignored matters, but perhaps even more is whether you have the will to fix them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
