October Education Program
The Freak Factor: 
Discovering Uniqueness by Flaunting Weakness
Keynote: David Rendall


 

Event Description

What's your problem? I'm serious. What do you wish you could change about yourself? What is the complaint that you hear the most from those closest to you, your friends, co-workers, and family members? Are you too loud or too quiet, too hyperactive or too sedentary, too organized or too messy? You get the idea.

So, what should you do? Most people think that they should find and fix their weaknesses. Unfortunately, this just leads to frustration and failure. Your weaknesses are actually the best clue to your strengths.

Furthermore, building your strengths, not fixing your weaknesses, is your best strategy for success.
