How To Tell If You’re Using Your Talents Or Not

In his groundbreaking book, Jay Niblick talks about the ‘Long X’.

The Long X is a term that describes the level of results you get when you are inauthentic as opposed to authentic. By authentic, I mean are you mostly using and relying on your talents.

When you are inauthentic, and not using or relying on your talents – you will feel that – it feels like the effort that you put in exceeds the results you get back. It feels hard, and just wrong.

When you become authentic and rely on your talents, you start to feel like you get back more in results than the effort you felt you had to put in. It feels easy, and right.

Authenticity is the Geniuses’ secret to consistently high 5th level performance.

What does it actually look like when you are being inauthentic – when you are not using your talents? Compare this to what it looks like when you are being authentic, when you are using your talents:

Inauthentic Authentic
Quantity Quality
Dissatisfied Satisfied
Impassionate Passionate
Stressed Comfortable
Frustrated Peaceful
Struggling Effortless
Forced Easy
Depleted Energized
Unnatural Natural
False True
Performance Level 1–3
(feels depressing, unrewarding, frustrating)
Performance Level 4–5
(feels great, significant, rewarding)

Where do you spend most of your time? In the inauthentic column, or the authentic column?

There is a simple, proven process for moving over to the authentic, talent/strengths based way of working and spending your time.

If you follow the simple steps, the changes you make will not only impact your work, they will show up in all areas of your life; your health, your relationships, the amount of fun and ease and happiness you experience.
