If you want to achieve something that is blocked by a weakness, you have to address the weakness or choose something else to achieve.
You can address a weakness by improving yourself or finding a workaround.
For example, if one of his strengths is bonding with fellow geeks, OP could bond with a fellow geek who likes talking to VCs and convince him to be a cofounder. Then he has worked around the problem by using a strength which is an example of a resourceful workaround.
TLDR: Using your strengths to work around a weakness is an example of being resourceful.
NB: In my experience, the willingness to go outside your comfort zone, even your weakest areas correlates highly with success in entrepreneurship.
