I think the thing I am most talented at is acting (funny, huh?). That is the thing I feel I can really do well and that I am most excited about doing. I also have talent in real estate investing. Those are the two things I need to focus on. I tend to try to do a million things. You make a good point - focus on what I'm good at. Great post!

The 10,000 rule was coined by Malcolm Gladwell was it not and it is true, you really need to be sure you are going to want to spend 6 hours a day for ten years to be excellent at it. Thats is also 6 quality hours, not just dead time. It's a big commitment so better make it a lifelong goal. Kudos on your tutor business mate, things seem to be going well. Hi Brian,

Did you ever get the video of that? However my good friend you are great at so many other things like procrastination and trying to be funny, im just messing with you. you have so many great qualities and skills that i cant help be be a little envious sometimes. the skill i admire most is your determination, your not afraid to do new things and to try them until you have perfected them or decided that its not for you. Its important that we know our strengths and develop them however it should never preclude us from exploring other avenues. my friend your the best.

My greatest strength though lies in being a tech entrepreneur so this is what I've decided to focus on... You probably have heard of a similar point about the 10,000 hour rule - basically that is takes about 10,000 hours of practice to master a skill. So I try to remember that too before diving deep into something - do I love this enough to spend the next 10 years working on it to accomplish something great? Cuz that's how long it will probably take :) Keep up the great posts! Brian Great post Jonny…I can totally relate having tried and wanted to do all sorts of cool things (tried acting too).

I indeed suck at a lot of things but dammit if I am not gonna do it anyhow. Steal away. Hi Kristin,

Steal away.

You should talk to Colin about learning how to act. He's terrible, but somehow keeps it real in front a camera :) On to the point of your article: it's pretty encouraging to hear about these things you suck at that you still like to do. That came out a little negative and sarcastic in typing it out. But I meant it genuinely. I will never be the singer of a rock band (if you don't believe me you can see/hear me and tiger #2 singing karaoke here: http://instigationology.com/), but I let that fear of being terrible get in the way of me enjoying the activity (until I posted it on my blog and now the secret's out). So bravo! I am going to start stealing all kinds of pages from your book of life. Watch out. Also: rock on the Building Businesses and Buying Buildings. An admirable goal to say the least!
