Here are 7 Reasons Why We
Should Put Our Talents, Gifts
or Strengths to Use:
1. Other People Can Benefit From
Them.
• Our gifts or talents are purposely
created not just for ourselves but to
help those around us.
How do other people benefit from
our gifts or talents?
Our gifts or talents are ours but they
are not just there for us. They are
given to be shared with others.
Sharing our talents with other people
can create more lasting fulfillment.
We get to exercise our talent and
other people on the other end
receives a benefit from it.
2. Other Lives May Change Because of
Our Talents.
Sherry, a former-ballerina-turned-attorney, married
Bob, who is likewise an attorney. They started a
program in 1984 called “City Hearts: Kids Say Yes
to the Arts”.
They deeply believe in the potential and gifts of
children who are trapped in the cycle of
delinquency and poverty. They saw that using their
talents is the first step to provide the appropriate
avenue to transform and benefit these children.
3. Leads to a More Satisfying Life.

• Gallup conducted a research on people who use


their strengths every day and how it affects
their performance and overall, their quality of
life.
• Gallup found out that people who use their
strengths and talents every day are six times
more likely to be engaged on the job.
The key points they found in the research are as
follows:

a.Improved Health and Wellness


b.Experienced Less Worry, Stress, Anger, Sadness or Physical
Pain
c.Boost Their Positive Emotions
d.More Energy to Face the Day
e.Higher Engagement Level on the Task

They also found out that building employees’ strengths is a far


more effective approach to improving performance than trying
to improve weaknesses.
4. We Can Make Money Out Of
Them.
• People are often unconscious about the
kind of talent they have. If we are aware of
something where we are really good at, we
can start small and make money out of it.

• Found what are really good at and with


constant use and practice, our gifts serve
us well .
5. Let’s Us Leave a Lasting Impression
to People
• “If we want to leave a lasting imprint to people
we encounter, use whatever we have to offer.
These are our gifts and talents.
“That moment of sharing without an agenda of
getting a part wasn’t about the outcome but
about the joy of touching others and giving
unconditionally what was mine to give.
6. Leads to Faster Growth and
Development

• When a person positively monitors


his performance and look for ways to
improve his strengths, he will
develop faster than focusing on his
weaknesses.
7. Show Appreciation to the Giver
One thing I like about gift giving is the feeling I get
when the receiver opens the gift and love it. But I
like it best when I see that the person is using the
gift. When we are using the talents given to us, we
are opening more doors and windows for more gifts.
Why is this so?
Because it’s how the Law of God works. Whoever
we believe in, when we use the talents the Creator
gave us, it shows that we appreciate His works. He
will give us more opportunities to use them in
return.
