Question: 
 
I'm not sure what I'm really good at. Is there a way for me to discover 
my hidden talents? 
 
Answer: 
 
It’s really not that unusual for people to come to me and say that they 
are struggling with figuring out what they are good at, or 
understanding what their real hidden talents are. 
 
So let’s take a look at three things you can do to uncover your hidden 
talents. 
 
First of all, ask other people what they think you’re good at doing. 
Oftentimes, they recognize things that we can’t see in ourselves, and 
they will tell you what they have seen you do in the past that helps 
you understand what the key is to a greater and greater future. 
 
The second thing is to think about, maybe even journal about, what 
really gets you excited. What are you passionate about? We 
understand that what people really enjoy, they tend to perform at 
higher levels in those particular areas. 
 
And third, use personal assessments. If you have taken personal 
assessments in the past, pull them out, look at them again from a new 
vantage point, and see if you can uncover talents that maybe you 
hadn’t recognized before. If you haven’t, find some way to take some 
personal assessments, so that you can look at the way this 
assessment unpacks and uncovers what your hidden talents might be. 
 
 
 
When you use all three of these together— talking to other people, 
thinking about what really excites you and comes natural, and using 
personal assessments— you’re going to develop a rich picture about 
what is unique about you, and how you can make the biggest 
difference in the workplace.
