My eyes can change the blue and green green I'm sad or scared and I can check my head Viber technically egg and shake my eyeballs
Please I want tips on this issues concerning gifts discovering.. can you drill me through.?
Finding your passion as an introvert is different. You can't just go there and do things.
When I was first starting in my business and came to face this problem I figured out very quickly that the majority
of advice are made for people who have no objections talking to the camera and love selling or those who will put profits
above anything else. You see I am not them.
I am an introvert and activist who runs a non-profit and coaching business where
people come always first. That's why I made a channel where I show my fellow introverts, activists, and non-profits
how I do it without selling soul and compromising on our values and our true self. But I encourage you to watch this video. Some good gems inside.
The most beautiful hair EVER!!! :-)
Agreed
Thanks
😍
You see them dooo ... its sooo good i want an advice how she done it that stuning
For real! Pantene should pay HER
I admire people with special gifts. The singer, writer, actor, athlete, etc. who is blessed with a great skill, love doing it, others appreciate it, and they make a tremendously successful living doing it. The rest of us are just trying to make it through despite not having them.
Lovely! Marie, I used to say 'I don't have a creative bone in my body', my younger sister was the artist in the family, I was a linguist. However, back in 1993 I encountered the Aura-Soma colour system and over a number of years I noticed that the colour associated with creativity and creative communication kept coming up as my unsuspected gift and talent. When one has an Aura-Soma consultation there is an actual 'Gifts and Talents' indication!! Eventually I was drawn to silk painting, became an Aura-Soma teacher, and since about 2007 I have been making wonderful gemstone and pearl jewellery and rosary beads!! Currently I have just built a studio in my back garden and my project for this year is to realize a dream of creating colourful handpainted silk ties and matching silver and enamel cufflinks and tie clips... go Aura-Soma colour!!
I'm a guitarist and I started playing after watching Sungha Jung's video that poped up infornt of me out of nowhere, his guitar playing skills inspired me to pick up a guitar and give it a go, I picked it up and actually excelled in it... XD
I think your gift is really a thing that is unexpected but is there somewhere inside you, you just need to stop comparing yourself with others and explore yourself, BE YOU!! that is NO. 1 GIFT, "No transparency", look for inspiration, that inspiration would lead u to your passion/gift/hidden talent , the thing you would love to do most.
that's my story
I took a leadership class recently, and in the class we were asked to ask our friends and family, "When was I at my best?" When you are at your best you are naturally using your strengths and gifts. Asking this question will bring some eye opening results and will reveal your true strengths!
I loved how you used the word "Strengths" to not make the idea of gifts overwhelming. This perspective helped me a lot. I realized why I was not enjoying a particular position and it was because I did not get an opportunity to use my core strengths at all and that's why it didn't feel aligned. I learn the job responsibilities pretty quickly so I perform well, but does that really bring me satisfaction? Seeing this video, I feel that making use of my strengths majorly is very important, because that's natural and that's what helps us nurture our joy within.
Thank you, beautiful Marie! ♥
WHEN THE HECK WILL YOU GIVE US A TUTORIAL ON THOSE LUCIOUS WAVES???
I second that! Her gorgeous hair is so perfect!!
The profilephoto is so SCARY :) mychaneleesy
Thank you Marie! I found this video because I use RUclips like a search engine and this is exactly what I was looking for. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I think my gift is planning, organizing and facilitating but doing all that behind the scenes. I discovered this when I was part of a group that was in charge of a special project and a number of people pointed out that this role in the group really suited me. I had the opportunity to plan and organize things for a dance team when I was the captain and I have to admit I wasn't the best captain in terms of building a good relationship amongst the team but I was good at creative direction. So I found a strength and a weakness. And as a matter of fact, when I joined the group I spoke of previously, before we started working on the project, I actually told one of my peers that I didn't think there was anything special about me or my life. I didn't feel like I had a particular gift that no one else had or that I was the best at. But I learned that no one is the best at everything, there's always somebody better, there is only one you, and that you is always interesting because there is nothing else in this world like it, nor has there ever been, and nor will there ever be.
Jasmine Lewis. That resonates with me. I am looking for a way to make money with this strength
Girl... What you said^^^^. You are the Puppetmaster. As. Am. I. It can be quite lonely up there. But it is a powerful position. Think about it... What a gift!
We need to really recognize our strengths because we all have it, we just don't see them. I really love this video.
thank you Marie and have a happy new year.
Great, You cannot give your best when you don’t know what your best is. Love you so much Marie Forleo ;)
Great video, Marie! To respond to your CTA: "What Color is Your Parachute" really helped me gain clarity and focus. Not only is this a career-finding must have, it's really just a great way to take inventory on your own skills, passions, and dreams.
Gday Maria, great video. My A to your Q is:
12 months ago I just knew I had to find clarity to my own purpose or calling. I was really good at lots of things and helped my clients achieve massive measurable results, but I really lacked a focus and had no ability to be centered. I was questioning myself "What am I doing here?" So I looked back at all the work I had done with my clients over the past 15 years. What got me most jazzed and where I helped my clients achieve their biggest "AHA" moment came down to the same common denominator, the cross-road of what I loved doing and what the world needs. It came down to one single thing...purpose. So 12 months ago I started my crystalised journey as the Prophet for Purpose. I truly believe, I have witnessed it and it is proven in companies doing good all over the world that "if you become the prophet of you purpose, you will profit from your purpose".
Keep up the awesome work...on purpose
Great message Dave!
Oh, Marie, this made me cry.
I was thinking how would I have felt when I was a teenager, if someone would've done such a beautiful gesture for me the way you did for Aja.
I'm so happy for her!!
2:52 🤣 epic! Although yes I agree that's one of my natural strenghts. Solving complex problems and creating better, simplier, easier, and accesible solutions on the get go. I just like it when things work out perfectly and in harmony.
Wifi connection problems really gets me..... lol
Thank you! I needed this!!
Lol - always love the fun examples @marieforleo:) #Believe
Wow! I didn't know that you commented on other channels.
This was a surprise, I didn't know you once commented here, amazing.
I love how much effort you put into 5 minutes video. Marie knows the art of saying so much in 5 minutes. It saves lot of time.
I didn't find my gift after this video.
Action Steps to find your gift after the video
1. Find a way to read Discover your Strengths
2. Read it and take the test
Might help?
@@isamatulaI took it, and… he talks about interests, but they’re very esoteric. It was confusing, to me. Like she said, positivity and communication. Those are not interests. I was looking for strengths, like counseling and music, like playing a guitar.
I’ll go back and look at it again.
Curious, have you read it?
Wonderful how just a simple shift in vocabulary (from "gifts" to "strengths") can make all the difference in perspective. Always enjoy your insight!
This is some great advice! I`m glad i checked out this vid Marie.
Gold as always.
Same here :-)
1st time here. Thanks for the video. Next, I am reading that book You mentioned. Thanks! Peace!
Thank you for your video and explaining that gifts are strengths which makes it easier for me to figure out mine. What I actually don’t agree with is the phrase “gifts that ONLY YOU have”, which makes it impossible for me to figure out bc many of my strengths or gifts many people also have, therefore leads me to dismiss mine. I believe none of us have that 1 thing that only we individually have, but we all share strengths and gifts that we were gifted with, some have it stronger than others and some have nurtured it more. But this video really helped me in figuring out my gifts or strengths, so thank you. Been on this journey of reflection and changing my career but can’t decide what I would be good at doing.
Hey there! Thanks so much for so openly sharing with us. We totally see your perspective. While we may have many gifts and share them with others, there are some things that come so easy to us that it's truly our gift. It definitely can be hard to find because it comes so easy to us, but we know you'll find it. We believe in you and are cheering you on throughout this journey! - Monauar, Team Forleo
I feel like my gift is empathy, hard worker, always bring happiness, maybe even decorate or improve things. The question I have is how do I create a job out of these skills?
Interior decorator?
Counseling, charity organizations, social services maybe
Love the video, Marie.
What a great way to think about this concept of our 'gifts'.
Thank you Marie- so well thought out and simply shared! Loved the quote at the end:)
My strengths are: Curiousity, I always ask such unique and insightful questions.
Positivity- I uplift everyone around me so effortlessly
Therefore- I am going to be a TV host and have my own talk show focusing on health and happiness:) see you there:)
First time on this channel and I believe I find my gift thanks 🙏🏿
A brilliant way to discover your inherent strengths. Thank you Marie!
Lyra Scotch woot! :)
***** Now I wanna read that book she recommended
Lyra Scotch Go for it! marieforleo only recommends the goods :)
Lyra Scotch Me too!!!!
Strength is like Gem in Dirty water, you cannot see it unless you pour some clean water on it, either temporarily.
You've broken this down in a way I've never heard it before! I think anyone can find their " gifts " after watching this.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience in changing the world better than how you met it.
Well just now I realized that I am a quick learner,I'm competitive,and I can easily win people over
Ooh Love your Tie-Dye dress! (That style is called Lahariya in India :) ok I just got so excited over the dress, Must watch video now!
RGV Love
Yeahh! I took a screenshot of her dress coz I wanna make a kameez similar to it XD
I come from the communication tree🌳 I learned that about myself from people telling me I'm a good writing lyricist, good story writer, a good salesman, good debater, good conversationalist, giving good inspirational advice, good listener, good reporter and a good teacher. But the string that pull me the most is the lyrical writing which I have a tub of lyrics that I've created over a two decade span something like 23 years on the side of working in retail. I truly believe that's the best to use my communication gift whether I make a living off it or not I just know that string sing to me different than the other ones for some reason.
Marie, this might be slightly off topic, but your wardrobe and hair is always on point! It would be amazing if your hair and wardrobe team made a second channel designed specifically for fashion/beauty advice
+Berry Stylish ❀ She has a stylist who dresses her and does her hair for the shoot. She sometimes shows the stylist making the finishing touches. You can often see that it's the first time that Marie is encountering the dress or the jewellery that is being put on her for the shoot. What she brings are the raw materials of her amazing hair and body.
SOLD!! To the beautiful lady in the blue dress. I'm not even Sasha but I feel as though she solved my problem.
I can't believe that talent show sketch was thrown in. Top quality content.
Thank you!
this video got me motivated.....thanks
Great perspective Marie Forleo . Thank you for sharing. :)
That book was extremely helpful thank you
GIFTS=STRENGTHS 💎 Thanks for clarifying.
Love you Marie ...... and Team :)
Great video!!
You look beautiful as always. Great video..I pinned and tweeted it. My special gifts are I think giving back and design. I'm working on how to combine the two.
Thank you so much I just discovered my gift now I love workout I also have alot of strength to do it well but sometimes I'm lazy to do it again
Very interesting. So true.
Awesome message thank for the inspiration and nice dress and your hair is Gorgeous
She so beautiful! Jealous! I laughed so hard at the moving the chairs to fir another row!!!🤣
Thank you for this information. It is very helpful. My takeaway is to: Recognize that I have strengths. Asking myself what are my strengths make more sense.
Growing up and attending school we are often taught that gifted people are the really smart ones who make A's all the time. Everyone with lower grades are not gifted. This is probably one of the reasons why so many of us think we do not have a gift. Not to forget how often people are told that they did things the wrong way; no you can not do this or that ; and on and on and on.
This is such a good point, Carol. And a very powerful shift in perspective. You absolutely have unique strengths and we're so grateful you're sharing them with the world. Keep up the wonderful work - you're an inspiration! ❤
Thank you
Love this video! Think strengths not gift!
Chris Gloss Thanks
I love the video!
thank you!
Very good pts!👍
I never comment on videos but my God lady your hair looks faaaantastic *_*
All i could focus on was your hair....flawless!
So true 👌
I have just recently discovered for myself your channel and I LOVE IT! Thank you so much for what you are doing. I think it is so immensely important to motivate people, teach them confidence and show that even their most unrealistic dreams can come true!
You are gorgeous! Love your videos. :)
I'm trying to discover my talent because in a subject at school we are needed to discover and share our talents and I don't have anything I'm good at
Hi Marie I love you videos... I also feel the same way I am trying to go to school and it’s so hard I still don’t know what I should really focus on and it’s kind of stressful...
omg your hair is so LUSCIOUS! How do you do your hair? Can you post a tutorial?
Saying strengths rather than gifts...I finally got it.
Your hair...mesmerizing.
Great advice, and funny vid.
Your hair!!!!!! IS AMMMMMAZING!
Excellent video
Your hair is just aweeeesoomeeee
Great video
Thank you!! Yes, I agree that you should call them strengths. It helps people who get stuck in perfectionist all or nothing thinking. You can focus on mini successes and strengths you have-- like motivating people and helping them. Or talking to random strangers in the airport haha!
You're awesome 😄
@marieforleo, thanks I think I'm gonna be fine now after watching your video. Can you imagine I have been asking myself this question ever since I heard a religious mass sermon talking about this mysterious "gift" we all have? Now I know the answer is my no.1 strength, isn't it!
My gifts are eating big macs in 30 seconds skipping school
I love waking up to these videos
Martha,I read your profile on Google and i share in your ideals and will like to connect with you.
Currently, i am reading a course in digital marketing and the future looks bright.
One of my dreams is to surround myself with positive people who can ADD VALUE to my life and from what i read from your site on google...i will like to connect with you as a friend.
Hope to hear from you
Regards

Hello,
Sounds exciting. I am taking courses as well. Of course message me on google plus !
Not to knock on the rest of that video, but the part with the quote was awesome! It makes many things clear. :)
my
haha moment is when you said to look our gifs like stregts. Then you said this strengst are is us for our life. Now I can see that I dond need to find a single type of career for the rest of my life but instead look for best jobs to use my unique strengsts. Thank you.
Thanks
I am a new RUclipsr and you are top on my 'To Watch' people. Not only do i watch you for personal Inspiration but lm learning a tonne of stuff i need to improve on as well on my show! #ThankYou :-)
thanks for the book recommendation
How was it?
How to Discover Your Strengths! Thank you
I'm 22 and so confused about what to do with my life what is my strengths are. But For sure that I will know it sooner or later.
Don’t feel so bad I’m 39 and still trying to figure it out!
Dear Sasha. You have a great gift with words. You write so beautifully.
if you're in my class and sorting by new, you're an actual legend
Thanks. I read the book 1:45 and it kinda surprised me. It actually stated what I'm INTERESTED in vs what my strengths are? To me there is a subtle difference between the two?
Thanks. I like to watch you very much. You are fun and professional. Now: The topic is huge and the 8 min video is very good but it does not do much for people looking for answers around the theme.
Bruh I can work at something for months and somebody comes along in my life that is like “ oh that’s easy” and just obliterated me at it like I just wanna be good at something
nice!
According to a strengths test my nr1 strength is "personal growing" next on the list are: being critical, knowing who I am and motivate others. How in the hell am I going to make a living with these four traits.??
I love the hair.
I agree with the top comments. That hair is amazing.
I still feel like I have nothing to offer, I may have some strengths but nothing that comes in useful for any career.
Saira, that was two years ago. As we go through life, we are always becoming more aware than we were before. Might there be people in your life that you have known for a long time and who are close to you that might be able to point out things you are naturally great at? You probably have more to offer than you know.
@@p2prelates934 thank you for this! You are right, it took me some time to know myself better, I was been beating myself up for not accomplishing things people my age were but I'm trying to accept that, and remember that my circumstances were different. I want to be a writer, I always knew that deep down but I was scared to pursue it. I still need to find another career to keep me afloat for now and incase I'm never able to be a full time writer if it doesn't bring in enough income so I'm still in a bit of pickle but I definitely believe in my self more than I did 2 years ago!
@@saaa.aa9578 how wonderful! 🙏 Have you read Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert? I highly recommend this book 🥰 good luck to you ✨
My journey to discover my life’s gift led me here.
Thank you for this reminder. Even as an "older adult," I still have to deal with the s-h-itty committee in my head.
"That mean voice in your head is not true and that's not you." !Marie Forleo
Hi Marie Forleo. You are amazing. Do you play Piano? You are a great musical talent. Dance and music. I'm watching your videos MarieForleoTV. Brazilian Nat. Flag. With love. His fan!
So I actually love cooking and I would love to be that chef people go to for soulful food✨
Wow obviously you’re great example of EVOLUTION, Pardon me It deserves more love , going from bar tending to where you are NOW, thank you for reaching for the stars and reminding us about evolution that is not impossible to achieve .
Thanks so much for your kind words! And whatever you want to achieve, it's possible too :)
I took his strength finder test and my strength was something along the line of "being able to see possible danger down a given path." The problem is no one wants my strength. How do I use this? Frustrating to say the least. Also, get and watch the movie Trombone Player Wanted - by Buckingham.
That sort of observation is invaluable ! Health and safety , Risk assessment , insurance scenarios, employment environment safety. Hope you have found your way with your great gift . x
I sure hope you took in Ezra's input about "health & Safety, Risk Assessment, Insurance Scenarios, Employment Environmental Safety. Those are wonderful suggestions. Somewhere in there I can't help but think you're a writer -- just from your cool RUclips name! Whatever your gift is, there are people who need it!!! Wish you the best!
