Do our greatest strengths have the potential to be our greatest weakness? I would have to say yes I agree with this statement in the sense that our strengths have the ability to give us power or some sort of advantage over others and yet these very strengths have the ability to bring us down on our knees if they are used in correctly. Therefore it is important to utilize our strengths in appropriate ways and in ways that will not just benefit us but also make a difference to other people’s lives. We as humans have different strengths, one person’s strength might be the ability to sing, the next one may be the ability to organize and plan effectively, run a 100 meters in the shortest time and so on.
What happens when one losses one of their strengths? They may believe that they have become useless and have no real purpose in life. Yes our strengths have the ability to make us feel this way, when we no longer have the ability to use them or when we lose them. When this happens some people may end up taking their own lives as they tend to believe that they can no longer live if their lose their greatest strength/s because of the fact that we live in a very competitive world. Everyone aims to have the best things in life or be the best in what they do. We don’t settle for mediocrity, we always want more.
Our strengths are blessings yet they have the ability to destroy us if we become too competitive and greedy, as this may lead to us wanting to do whatever it takes to be better than the next person. I urge you to use your strengths in a fitting manner and be grateful for having them.
