You have to consider that business you could do utilizing "what you are good at" may not be as lucrative as some other business that you could do utilizing something "you wish to be good at".
To put it in example:
You are good at X and best people doing something where you really need X earn 100.
You are not good at Y, just average and average people doing something where you really need Y earn 200. Best earn 400.
So there is no point utilize your perfect X trait when you can just use your average Y trait.

Point is that you should have some traits in order to be good poster and you should utilize them in a better way :)

I agree to some degree. If you are fantastic for some reason at cracking your knuckles, there may be no way to market that effectively. Also the thing you are pretty good at may be a good choice for other reasons (low cost, windfall job offer etc).

However, having thought about it a lot the last couple days, I do know a lot of people who seem 'miscast' in their career roles and I've asked several people online and off what they are good at, with very few seeming to have given it much thought before they were asked.

Just last week or so I was wondering about this. Like what am I really good at.

Tough question :2 cents:

Explaining things.
Seeing the big picture.
Taking something and making it 1000% better.
Talking.

That's an interesting set. It suggests you would always be better off reworking an existing product than trying to create a new product, especially if you can find an existing good idea that is faltering because of it being more complicated than it needs to be. That's a fairly specific target to go after.

I create lots of new projects by mashing together lots of ideas from projects others have going that I think could be better.
