A couple of takes regarding this from a programmer (who, naturally, is extremely neurotic about his skills):
There is no single skill that defines your value
You are probably not even aware of all the things you excell at, because these things seem the easiest to you
Social intelligence is extremely important. You can’t do shit alone, and even if you can, you need to sell it to someone
You don’t need to be the best to be extremely good at something. Being in the top 10% means there are countless people at least as good as you, yet 90% are worse
The hardest things require a good team, not a good person
A good team is more than the sum of its parts. Supporting some genius can make you 200% as productive as you would normally be, because they can direct your skills to the right places at the right time, or clear roadblocks that woud take you forever
