What are you really good at? I’m not talking; just ok…this is your top strength, I mean you’re really good at this!
Who knows that you’re really good at this? Does your significant other know? How about your leader, your family, your friends and peers?
…maybe even your team?
If they don’t know…what are you doing to advertise, promote or allow others to leverage this strength?
“What about being humble? Having humility?” You ask.
My answer is as follows:
Merriam-Webster’s Learners Dictionary defines humility as: the quality or state of not thinking you are better than other people: the quality or state of being humble.
Making sure those around you know you’re really good at something in no way means that you’re better than them, because they will always be really good at something that you’re not so good at…
On the other hand…not telling your significant other, your leader, your family, friends and peers; even your team is far worse!
First and foremost…it’s a disservice to you not to share your talent. Secondly, it’s a disservice to everyone else who could benefit from your talent. Last, but definitely not least…it’s just plain selfish!

Great post!! I also think its important to help others realize their strengths. When we observe something about someone that is a strength, unique and/or special, we should share that with them. You never know what kind of impression those few words could make on someone’s life.
