Identify your strengths

Identify your strengths

Key Takeaways:
Strengths are not just what you’re good at; they are activities that strengthen you.
Weaknesses are activities that weaken you, even if you are good at them.
You may be good at things you don’t enjoy, which doesn’t make them strengths.
The best judge of your strengths is you, as you know what intrigues and engages you.
Your strengths are activities that energize and captivate you.
Don’t solely rely on others’ opinions; trust your own assessment of what drives you.
Activity:

To identify your strengths, make a list of activities you love doing and those you loathe.

 

Now ask yourself these questions and reflect on your answers: 

1
How much time do you give to your strengths daily?
2
Are those strengths getting utilised & strengthened even more or simply fading away?
3
Are your weaknesses getting the best of you?
4
What are you going to do now?
