I would reiterate: the mark of genius is the ability to hold two contradictory thoughts in your head at the same time. Raise awareness to your weakness, and direct your intentions towards strength.
Be highly conscious of your weakness, always. In every situation, show humility. It is by focusing on our greatest weakness that we experience genuine strength.
If I may go off on a tangent, it's often said about falling in love that it's about "making yourself vunerable". Falling in love = being vunerable because you are opening yourself to all kinds of experience; good and bad; euphoria and heartbreak. There can be no strenght without clear juxtaposition to weakness.
