"A chain is only as strong as it's weakest link.".. or one of the many variations on the popular aphorism.
Everybody says it, but I don't really believe it.
Do you really feel any worse off by your inability to write with your opposite hand? Are legendary basketball teams that way because of their starting 5 or there 12th man? Will my tiny biceps hinder my squat?
We all have weaknesses, and we are made to think that we need to always bring up those weaknesses. Sometimes our weak links really do hinder us, and then we definitely should strive to brink them up; but most of the time the return on investment of nourishing our strengths will be much greater.
The weak link only matters if it is in the part of the chain that is being used.
