Remember the theory of multiple intelligence: there are myriad ways to be talented. The trick is to find yours. That involves three steps. First, recognition – think about those instances, perhaps in your youth, when you were told you had a talent. Was it a ‘golden seed moment’? Second, reflection – think about what you’re good at in the here and now. Success leaves clues. It’s your job to spot them. Third, rhythm – seek out those tasks that induce a sense of ‘flow’. These moments are all too rare, but might just reveal your true calling.
