I really enjoyed this because it informed me about how focussing on strengths is just as important as focusing on weaknesses. It was talking about how you need to race your strengths. This means that you need to understand your strengths and try to push them to the limits and  to further expand upon them. Focusing on strengths is just as important as focusing on weaknesses because sometimes it is better to have a few very strong points rather than several average points. This is not to say that it is bad to work on weakness as well, just ensure it is not your only focus. Another point that was talked about was how We know what we like and what we dislike. No one really knows exactly why we like and what we dislike,  but one point is that the more you're exposed to something the more likely you are to enjoy it. This is based on the theory that the more you're surrounded by people that like one thing the more you're inclined to share that opinion. I really enjoyed this podcast because it touched on a lot of interesting points.  It was also honest and it seems like something where if you ask a question the people will take it seriously and not just laugh it off.  Overall I really enjoyed this podcast and I would give it a 4 out of 5.
