Talent management

[bishopbiscuits]

ATTENTION PLEASE:

.........Due to the abundance of people of all levels and varieties of talent here in Deep Waters, I am asking "How do you manage your talents, especially any ones that people recognize and request of you?"
.........The story of your gift can be in almost any area, so please share it. I know that your testimony will bless myself and others.
..........Sometimes we need to have someone put into words what we have been "sensing" all along for it to finally make "tangible sense." In other words, you said what was on my heart, and now through your words I see my heart/mind better.
.........I wanted to get some feedback. Some advice , suggestions, or examples that may help me to better direct and focus my developing talents.
..........Share what you feel free to share. Here are some avenues to help focus the responses: (please identify the type of gift or gifts that you are sharing about)

1. What was it like when you first became aware of your ability?

2. What or who encouraged you in its development? (No specifics on the who are necessary)

3. How did you go about developing it?

4. Any challenges? funny stories?

5. How has operating in your gift/talent affected who you are as a person?

6. Has your gift been a further extension or representation of you as a person?

7. What challenges have you had when people began to make demand of your talent? Were fear or pride factors in your use of your gift?

8. What boundaries do you set?

9. How do you now invest in it to continue to grow?
