Third Dimension of Capability: Skills

Covey, in The Speed of Trust. The One Thing That Changes Everything (New York: Free Press, 2006), says: "Skills are our proficiencies, what we can do well." [p. 94]

Here are his questions for you, on p. 96:

What skills do I currently have? What skills will I need in the future that I do not currently have? To what degree am involved in constantly upgrading my skills?

I disagree a little bit. I think you should ask yourself what skills will make you into the kind of person you want to be. Then when a future arrives, you'll be Abel to tweak yourself to take advantage of it.

My goal here is to bring out more skilled entrepreneurs. How am I doing?

Entrepreneurship is the life's blood of all my professional activities. It makes them go. It informs my connection strategy. For my ideas on connection strategy, go to my new blog www.Connecting.blogspot.com.

It makes Your Stop for Real Estate, my real estate referral business, go. See www.yourstopforrealestate.blogspot.com.

It powers my writing. Go to www.kearneymusicschoolmurders.blogspot.com for my ideas on writing and where you can read my mystery for free, download it for free or buy it from Amazon.com more cheaply than you can print it.

It fuels my publishing enterprise, By and for Writersgo. See www.byandforwriters.blogspot.com where you can get a poem or a short story published.
