TURNING YOUR LIABILITIES INTO ASSETS

1. Know who you are: Whatever your personal qualities are—aggressive or genteel; elegant or sporty; collaborative or competitive—don’t be afraid to use them.

2. Blossom where you were planted: Every experience that we have—both good and bad—helps shape who we are.

3. Find a fresh perspective: It does not matter who you are or what kind of product or service you sell; be the first to explore and execute outrageous and unconventional strategies.

4. Understand that your so-called liabilities can be your assets: It is tough to compete with people who are identical to you. Being different gives me an edge. Being different is not a liability; it makes you unique.

5. Change your circumstances, so your liabilities become your strengths

6. On the other side of your strengths lie your weaknesses: The universe contains five elements: water, fire, wood, metal, earth. Water can conquer fire, wood, and metal. Yet earth can conquer water. The same principle goes for fire, wood, metal, and earth. In each element’s strength lies its weakness.
