How to Find Your Most Profitable Skill — Even If You Feel Ordinary/Average You’re sitting on a goldmine. But when your skill is normal to you, you’ll assume it’s worthless. It’s not. It’s just unrecognized, unpackaged, and unpositioned. Here’s how to find the one skill that will pay you the most — even if you feel ordinary. Thread 👇 1. Stop looking for a new skill. Your most profitable skill is rarely something you need to learn. It’s something you’ve already done, survived, or delivered, but haven’t priced or packaged (refined) yet. 2. List what comes easy to you but hard to others. What do people say: “You’re good at this…” “How did you do that?” That’s not small talk. That’s a signal. Ease is a clue. Pain + confusion for others = opportunity for you. 3. Look for patterns in past results. What do your best wins have in common? → What problem did you solve? → Who did you solve it for? → What changed because of your input? The marketplace pays for repeated outcomes. Not random brilliance. 4. Run the Money Skill Filter For every skill you list, ask: – Does it save someone time? – Does it save someone money? – Does it help someone earn more? – Would a business pay for this? If the answer is yes to 2 or more, you’re holding a monetizable skill. 5. Stop trying to be unique. Be useful. Many times, you don’t need to invent something new. You need to position what you already know in a way that solves an urgent, expensive problem. 6. Use the “Cash Conversation Test” Have 5 conversations with people in your target audience. Ask: → What’s frustrating you in [area of your skill]? → What have you tried that didn’t work? → If someone fixed that fast, what would it be worth to you? This gives you the language and the pricing. 7. Package a small win. Fast. Don’t build a business (yet). Don’t launch a website (yet). Just pick one skill + one result + one person And turn it into a low-friction paid offer. Examples: – “I help startup founders write investor-ready bios.” – “I help 9-5 professionals build personal brands on LinkedIn.” – “I help coaches craft 1 clear, high-ticket offer.” Clarity gets clients. Complexity kills confidence. 8. Recognize your skill and act on it today. Most people aren’t broke because they lack skill. They’re broke because they’ve never recognized the value of their skill. 💬 COMMENT “SKILL + MONEY” if this hits you hard and you will practice.
