skill Development

What is skill
• the ability to do something well
An ability to do an activity or job
 well, especially because you have practiced it:
• A skill is the ability to carry out a task with determined
results often within a given amount of time, energy, or
both. Skills can often be divided into domain-general
and domain-specific skills. For example, in the domain
of work, some general skills would include time
management teamwork and leadership, self-motivation
and others, whereas domain-specific skills would be
used only for a certain job. Skill usually requires certain
environmental stimuli and situations to assess the level
of skill being shown and used.
 What is skill development
• Skills development is the process of (1)
identifying your skill gaps, and
(2) developing and honing these skills. It is
important because your skills determine your
ability to execute your plans with success. ...
In goal achievement, your skills are your tools.
The house is your goal.
Why skill development is neglected
• There are two big reasons;
• Firstly people are often impressed by what
others have accomplished without realizing
what they want through to get there.
• Secondly, some of us can be heavily self
critical. We look at how successful others are
the top coaches, internet gurus, award winning
performers, winner of society and conclude
that what we can never achieve the same.
