It's not that we ignore our weaknesses; rather, we make our weaknesses irrelevant by working effectively with others so that we compensate for our weaknesses through their strengths and they compensate for their weaknesses through our strengths.

Stephen Covey

Mae Jemison

At times, our strengths propel us so far forward we can no longer endure our weaknesses and perish from them.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Our weaknesses are always evident, both to ourselves and others. But our strengths are hidden until we choose to reveal them--and that is when we are truly tested. When all that we have within is exposed, and we may no longer blame our inadequacies for our failure, but must instead depend upon our strengths to succeed ... that is when the measure of a man is taken, my boy.

James A. Owen

Neal A. Maxwell

We should learn to be patient with ourselves. Recognizing our strengths and our weaknesses, we should strive to use good judgment in all of our choices and decisions, make good use of every opportunity, and do our best in every task we undertake. We should not be unduly discouraged nor in despair at any time when we are doing the best we can. Rather, we should be satisfied with our progress even though it may come slowly at times.

Joseph B. Wirthlin

Success is achieved by developing our strengths, not by eliminating our weaknesses.

Marilyn vos Savant

In many ways, each of us is the sum total of what our ancestors were. The virtues they had may be our virtues, their strengths our strengths, and, in a way, their challenges could be our challenges.

James E. Faust

Human players have their strengths and weaknesses and Watson is the same way. He just has different strengths and weaknesses than most people.

Brad Rutter

One of the main focuses of my training sessions is to help individuals find their unique voices in the learning process. We all have our strengths, our weaknesses, our styles of learning, our personalities. Developing introspective sensitivity to these issues is critical to long-term success.

Joshua Waitzkin

It's not our weaknesses that frighten us. It's our strengths.

Nelson Mandela

I know what I would do if I were coach. I'd determine our strengths and weaknesses and utilize them. And it's pretty clear what our strength is.

Michael Jordan
