We are all born with a grab bag of gifts and gaps. Identify your true talents, then find out how to use them to make money.

The line frames human ability as unevenly distributed: everyone arrives with innate strengths (“gifts”) and limitations (“gaps”). Its practical thrust is vocational and market-oriented—self-knowledge should lead not only to personal fulfillment but to economic strategy. The quote implies that success depends less on fixing every weakness than on accurately identifying comparative advantages and then translating them into paid work. It also reflects a merit-and-market worldview: talents are real, but they become valuable only when matched to demand and packaged as a livelihood. The emphasis on monetization can be read as motivational advice or, more critically, as reducing self-development to economic outcomes.
