If you can do that, clearly you\u2019ve got what it takes to succeed financially, too, true or true?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So why focus on problems you\u2019ve solved? <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">One, because as you just saw, <strong>it feels good.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">And two, because <strong>people need to believe you get what they\u2019re going through\u00a0<i>and\u00a0<\/i>know the way out.<\/strong> Makes sense, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6385\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6385\" src=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/2019\/10\/discussion-conversation-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2019\/10\/discussion-conversation-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2019\/10\/discussion-conversation-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2019\/10\/discussion-conversation-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2019\/10\/discussion-conversation.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Take the problems or pain-points you experience \u2014 ones you know OTHER people also experience \u2014 and\u00a0<b>find solutions for each of them.\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><br \/>\nSTEP 3 \u2014 Identify Your Strengths<\/span><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">For your third list, write down <strong>what you\u2019re good at.<\/strong> Just like step one, include <i>everything<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This might be tricky if you\u2019re one of the many, many people who doesn\u2019t like to talk about their strengths. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">One way to get past this is to <b>pretend you\u2019re your own agent<\/b>.
