What are you good at?

Article link: What are you good at?

This article talks about the difference between content, which is "domain knowledge," like the skills you can develop over time, and process, which is "emotional intelligence skills," such as visualizing success and dealing with multiple priorities.

As I read the article it really got me thinking on how I can improve or develop "process" skills, and it made me think of that old catch-22 that a couple of friends and I used to talk about where employers only want people who know process, so they won't hire those who know content. But those who only know content won't get the experience to understand process, because they weren't hired by the employer.
