Strength and weakness are not what you think.
They are relationships. Relationships between what you are and where you are, between your qualities and your circumstances. Change the context, and the weakness becomes the strength. Change it again, and the strength becomes the weakness.
It's the reason the expert in the room keeps missing the thing the newcomer sees. The reason the disaster everybody should have spotted looked impossible to predict, right up until the moment it wasn't. The reason some of the most important breakthroughs in history came from the exact people nobody would have picked.
Once you understand the relationship, you start noticing it everywhere. In the room you're in. In the choices you're weighing. In the story you've been telling yourself about what you're good at, and what you'll never be.
Most people go their whole lives without seeing it. This book is about what happens when you do.
