Come with us this week as our host Suzy Welch demonstrates how good she is at pottery! Wait, don’t. Because she’s terrible.
Not for lack of trying. She’s tried her entire life. And not for lack of love. It’s her favorite thing.
And that’s pretty much the point of this week’s episode of Becoming You, the podcast devoted to answering the question, “What do I do with my life?”
It’s about the things we want to do, and love to do, but shouldn’t do – with our careers, at least.
Because we can’t. It’s just not…in us. We’re all great at something. We are. But we are not good at everything.
Our job is not to resist that realization. Our job is to acknowledge it. And live it.
Becoming You is a methodology that is designed to lead you to your purpose, which exists at the intersection of your values, your aptitudes, and your interests.
Our focus this week is the second of that triad – aptitudes – urging us to ask not just what kind of work we should do. But what kind of work we shouldn’t.
It’s a eureka that can change everything.
Listen in as Suzy describes her four favorite ways to figure out your aptitudes once and for all – for the good of your career.
And your life.
