Our Biggest Weakness Can Be Our Greatest Strength

FILED IN: GET PERSONAL

I am 5’3 and a half (I always through in that half;)… basically tiny. I sometimes think this is weakness as I can never see the band at a concert unless I’m in the first 3 rows, buying items on the top shelf at the grocery store is pretty much impossible, we have three step stools in our home so I can reach things and my tiptoes are usually required to kiss my hubby.

Each weakness gives me the opportunity to think outside of the box, solve a challenge and uniquely define who I am in the eyes of Christ.  So if we take my hight for example, what I thought was a weakness has been a strength – here is how:

*It allows me to have prime seating at my favorite concerts and I fit in an airplane seat comfortably.

*Not being able to reach items on the top-shelf at the grocery store has taught me to ask for help without embarrassment, rather with hope + sincerity. It has also allowed me to meet some amazing people I would have most like never meet any other way.

*When people ask me how I keep the cellulite off my legs I tell them is from using a step stool 20 times a day, a built in workout.  

*Brandon loves the fact that when we hugs me I fit under his chin perfectly and he adores the way I stand on my tip toes to kiss him. Plus its uber cute when he bends down to snuggle me, I feel wrapped in love. 

*But most of all its benefited me in my business and sharing love through my business.
– When I need height for a shot it gives me the challenge of being more creative and capturing a photo more beautiful then I had originally thought of. 
– When a client is focused on a weakness they perceive having, it gives me the ability to empathize with them, reveal one of my weaknesses and help them turn what they see as their weakness into a strength.
– It allows me to be playful, relaxed, calm and confident in my perfect flaws. To embrace who I am and in turn embrace who others are without judgement. 

Next time you think you are weak or have a weakness think outside the box and turn it into your greatest strength. Stay positive and stay fabulous!

Love, Michelle

Drawing on years of experience in photo journalism, design, marketing and traveling ministry our photos are true, graceful, pure and boldly natural while completely intentional.  Wether it's the opportunity to narrate the retelling of a  wedding day to the blessing of documenting the Holy Mass, or the stories in-between, we look at every photograph as a way to document moments of God's Glory.
