(前略)「仕事ができる人」と「できない人」のいちばんの違いは何だろうか。私がいろいろな仕事で接してきた「できる人」に共通している特徴は、「自分の能力特性の分析」がうまいということだ。
まず、自分は何が得意で、何が不得意なのかを分かっている。もちろんオールマイテイ(注1)にあらゆる仕事をこなす(注2)エリートもいるのだろうが、たいていの人は、「仕事の得手、不得手」を持っている。そのうえで、「得意な仕事」を積極的にこなし、「不得意な仕事」からは上手に逃げている人が、実は「仕事ができる人」と評価されるのだ。
(和田秀樹『頭をよくするちょっとした「習慣術」』による)
(注1)オールマイティ:どんなことも完全にできること
(注2)こなす:処理する

(Beginning omitted) What is the biggest difference between “people who are good at their jobs” and those who are not? One characteristic shared by the “capable people” I have encountered in various kinds of work is that they are good at “analyzing the characteristics of their own abilities.”
First of all, they know what they are good at and what they are not good at. Of course, there may be elite all-rounders who can handle every kind of work perfectly, but most people have kinds of work they are good at and kinds they are not.(注1)(注2) With that understanding, people who actively take on the “work they are good at” and skillfully avoid the “work they are poor at” are actually the ones judged to be “good at their jobs.”

(Note 1) All-round: being able to do anything perfectly.
(Note 2) Konasu: to handle or process.
