A top skill of no top skill

I have resorted to telling people that I ‘have no real skills’ but I do so with a sense of humor and sick confidence. An air of: I remain an idiot but look at me go anyway. 

They’re often like, “no you must have skills - maybe you have people skills”.

it doesn’t matter what I have, which is why I never defend myself. What I have is no top skill which allows a solid big picture. I don’t obsess over one thing more than the other, and anyway that’s what specialists are for.

I know specialists and they claim great value in my said skill of no skill - - so don’t be afraid. 

Just this: Have enough confidence in your array of skills to back yourself up with profitable action.
