What are you GOOD at?

Went to dinner with a couple very successful entrepreneurs tonight. Conversation got around to what makes some succeed where others fail. One of them said something that got me thinking. He believes the number one thing that differentiates success or failure is that most people do not know what they are good at, not that they lack talent or aptitude but that they don't put enough effort into identifying their own talents and matching them with their ventures. 'Too many great short order cooks want to be terrible chefs and too many very likable people take back-office jobs' was the way he put it.

So what are You good at? Not what skills have you learned or degrees have you earned.
What are the more general talents or traits you have that allow you to do something better than someone else?
