When I took my strengths test I was not necessarily shocked with what I received, more with what I did not receive. I thought for sure that I would have received positivity because people are always telling me how positive I am. Through learning about my strengths I have come to realize that all five of my strengths together may be the cause of my positive attitude, and all five of my strengths working together constantly are what people see. My strengths are restorative, communication, input, strategic, and achiever.

I currently hold the equivalent knowledge and expertise of an NVQ Level 2 qualification and feel I have equivalent expertise to what expectations would be deemed appropriate as of having experience myself.

What are your main strengths?Punctuality, adaptability, precision and organisation. These are the strengths I possess, and the qualities that I believe will allow me to excel in this field of work.

I was interested by the results discovered at the completion of the StrengthsFinder Survey. While I found the strengths listed surprising at first, after reading the descriptions I could see how they fit my personality and life experiences. I believe it will be a challenge learning how to utilize each individual strength into my life and career, but it will be worthwhile to take the things I’m already good at and use them to my advantage. My top 5 strengths were reported to be harmony, communication, responsibility, discipline, and consistency (Clifton, Anderson, & Schreiner, 2006). I will work to integrate and utilize these strengths into my professional life.

After receiving the results of the strength finder assessment my initial reaction was a bit awkward. Considering the attached notice of how I should proceed with caution while viewing the results. Instantly, I felt as if I did something wrong while picking what describes myself. Unfortunately, more than a few of my strength finder responses were neutral, which made the results less personalized. Once relieved that there was no right nor wrong answer to fail the quiz. Gladly, I was then able to pay more attention and recognize that the five strengths populated for me were bold and meaningful terms that actually represents my life right now. My top five strengths are as follows. 1. Competition 2. Activator 3. Input 4. Strategic 5. Restorative.

Like most advising approaches, advisors typically focus on how they can help the student with meeting their needs and getting past difficult problems.

It's not uncommon for people to compare themselves with others around them, and to feel inferior, or even superior towards them based on their strengths and their weaknesses. The thing is, every individual is unique and we all function differently based on our personalities. It's important to understand yourself and to know your capacity. Your strengths are traits that you can use to push yourself further, and your weaknesses are the areas you need to improve on. It's not something you lack, it's something you need to develop or build. In order to take advantage of your strengths and improve on your weaknesses, you need to know what they are, which is why it's a good idea to take the Big Five Personality Test.

Nothing can prepare you for what this class has to offer, however, the only way I made it out alive was to leave the writer I thought I was in the past. There are challenges along the way that tested my strengths and showed my weaknesses. Also, I was able to realize the type of writer I am and the writer that I am not. English 1101, teaches the elements of writing allowing studentto understand themselves as writers; with the hope that by the end of the semester the students will be stronger writers.

In the interview, i asked one of my friend a few questions about myself. the first one was what are my strengths. the answer to that was curiosity and humility. From this I was expecting one strength to be curiosity which tells me that I would enjoy travelling in the future and learning about new things. Although humility, i was not expecting that strength only because i never noticed that in me and i never thought that strength was one of the things people noticed most about me. this strength added another career option for me that involves me understanding others issues and putting myself in their shoes. One career suited for this would be a psychologist. my second question was what are my qualities, in which the reply was honest, understanding,

One of my strengths that I would like to see improvement is to become more open minded towards other cultures, opinion, and beliefs.
