WHERE WE ARE NOT GOOD AT

We tend to do more and more of things where we are good at.  And this is okay.
We tend to avoid things where we are not good at. And this may not be to our advantage.
It may not be to our advantage because we do less and less of it to start with and avoid it altogether at a time.
Then we may have to pay a heavy price.
Being humans we cannot be good in all areas.
Being humans we can certainly attempt many things with appropriate help.
A common example is personal finance. Good help is available in plenty.
One guideline I have found useful. Become aware of areas where I am not naturally good at. And avoid short changing. Thus, If I am good at a thing only 10 per cent, let me make sure it does not become 9 per cent.  Preventing worse can mean assuring better.
