What You Can and Cannot Do
I think knowing what you cannot do is more important than knowing what you can do.~Lucille Ball
I’ve certainly experienced the wisdom of this statement in my life. It’s been very difficult for me to learn in the conventional classroom setting, so I placed more emphasis on being self taught. I have no interest or talent for computers, but I married someone who does. I know I can’t change everyone, but I will help those who want to change. I know I can’t know everything about a subject, but I won’t let that stop me from assimilating what I learn. I know I can’t be right all the time, but I know I can’t be wrong all the time either. I know I can’t be everything to those I love, but I will be the best me I’m able to be—consistently. So it is in this way, that knowing your weaknesses and shortcomings, they can cease to be a limiting liability and be turned into a useful asset. The first step in this process is acknowledging your weaknesses and shortcomings.
