What is Unique Ability?

Many of us have a talent or interest that distinguishes us from the rest of the crowd. Some distinct skill, something that we love to do and may not even think of as special and that comes naturally to us. Doing this activity doesn’t seem like hard work; it is a delightful enterprise! We enjoy immersing ourselves in this activity and accomplishing the results from the talent that we have. Someone else may come along and point out to us the unique aspect of the ability and then we notice this as our natural aptitude.

Playing an instrument, writing a blog, making presentations, organizing ideas and pictures or thinking creatively, (the skill some call “daydreaming”), are all examples of such skill sets. Some of us have the innate ability to understand exactly what another person really wants, even when the person cannot adequately explain it. Whether aware or not, each of us has our own special talent that could be called our unique ability. Additionally, each person has specific skills that are best left to others.

Where Is the Niche for Our Unique Ability?

Unique abilities, when acknowledged and rewarded, bring great satisfaction to our lives and to the lives of others who also benefit from our talents in action. Though we may have a challenge finding the best niche for our own set of special skills and proclivities, discerning what that niche may be is worth the effort. The rewards are valuable to our well-being, enjoyment of life and to our financial success. Finding the ideal environment for full expression of our talents also creates an atmosphere of greatest appreciation by its beneficiaries, also called customers and clients. With each client interaction, we have another opportunity to use our expertise while happily creating something of benefit to that customer.

Each individual’s unique ability is valued more by some than by others. While this fact may seem obvious, it is an important key to successfully defining one’s ideal niche. Of great value in the quest for our own best skill set environment is a network of others who support us:

• by combining their similar ability to become our affiliates

• by sharing their experience and mentorship or

• by augmenting our distinctly different expertise with their own.

There will also be those who do not recognize what we have to offer or have nothing to add to increase its potential of being fully expressed. The value they have to our quest is to point us in a new direction that benefits us much more, thereby broadening our horizons.

Building a Unique Ability Team

The ultimate solution to finding a great niche for our talents may be to create one. Finding others with complementary unique abilities who provide the best skill sets for those times and tasks when they are needed can be very advantageous. With a community of like-minded individuals who love their work, their co-workers and their customers, a sustainable and holistic enterprise can be built. By performing the tasks that exemplify our unique abilities, productivity and satisfaction ratings go up while exceptional quality is the result. A close-knit and passionate group like this will deliver value every day as each member utilizes and strengthens their own unique ability.
