1. What’s
Right
with You?

2. For centuries, mankind
has pursued its fixation
with fault and failing.

3. Think
about it.

4. Doctors have
studied disease...

5. ...to learn more
about health.

6. Psychologists have
studied sadness...

7. ...to learn more
about joy.

8. Therapists have
looked at the
causes of
divorce...

9. ...to learn
more about
happy marriage.

10. And in schools and
workplaces
around the world...

11. (just think
back to
your last
evaluation)

12. ...we are encouraged to
identify our weaknesses,
in order to become strong.

13. Well-intended,

14. but misguided.

15. We have become
programmed to focus
on our shortcomings.

17. Yikes.

18. Good news though...

20. But first, we must confront a
HUGE
false assumption...
(insert wrong ideas here)

21. ...the idea that
our greatest
room for
growth...

22. ...is in our areas of
greatest weakness.

23. Think
about it.

24. Does
that make
sense to
you?

25. That if you put more
attention on your
defects, failings,
imperfections, flaws,
blemishes, foibles,
and frailties...

26. ...you will reduce the
chance that these
negative things
will have a
negative impact?

27. That idea goes here.

28. But you can teach yourself
some things that your parents,
teachers, doctors, bosses,
and coaches didn’t.

29. ...and you can start
NOW

30. Begin by asking yourself
these 3 questions...
(and write your answers out.)

31. 1. What are your strengths?
(what one, two, or three things do you do well?)

32. 2. Where have your strengths
taken you in the past?
(how have your unique talents helped you before?)

33. 3. Are you capitalizing on
them right now?
(are your strengths in play?)

34. When you explore what’s
right about you, you’ll
notice the shift.

38. Now...

39. ...if you need some
help getting started...
(we all need the shift kicked out of us every once in a while)

40. ...or if you need someone
objective to point out
what’s right about you,
or your organization...
(maybe you’re out of practice)

41. Then connect with us.

42. That’s what we do well.
