My Strengths From The Institute

Based on the Clifton Strengths Assessment my top five strengths are strategic, deliberative, learner, maximize and individualization. As an individual, I rarely look into my weakness. I believe that when your too focused on your weakness, you forget about your strengths. Everything the book said is true, and we need to take the time to look at our strengths and make it perfect. It is true that in this world or the school system, we are taught to look at our weakness and correct it so that we can become stronger in our life. This book brings out the truth that I longed to hear for a long time. Invariably, I hear my professor tell their students that for them success in life, they must practice and look at our weakness. This book proves it wrong because for us to become successful, we must stay to our strengths’ path.

After reading these results of the VIA Survey of Character Strengths I believe it reflected what I also thought of myself. It is not only important to be assessed to have these traits, it is also necessary to let them be incumbent in my personality so as to really captivate the people I have to lead to success.

I believe that my strength are that I am a fast leaner. I do not give up easily, and I also make sure if I am going go to do something I do it to the best of my abilities.

I usually have a sense of who I am and my strengths, but I can never seem to express it in words. So this evaluation of my strengths really helped to do that for me. My top five themes are strategic, context, discipline, consistency and futuristic. And it says that those who are strategic can spot patterns in any given situation and create solutions. I agree on parts of this because I like thinking about cause and effect, but I don’t think about the multiple solutions and then pick the best. For context, it is those who think about the past and use that to connect it with the present. I do this every day. I’m always thinking so that is probably why I do like talking about the past with other individuals. And yes, problematic issues, like wars, do interest me. For discipline, it is those who like structure and routine. I can’t believe how accurate the discipline trait is for me. The whole passage described me so well, and when going over it in the book, I am just blown away by its accuracy. I’ve always believed in equality and wouldn’t want to give someone an advantage over another. I love it when things go smoothly and easy for myself and others. I am an orderly person so the 1, 2, 3, step methods are easy for me to follow and preferable. For consistency, it is those who try to treat others equally and live the world by being consistent on their beliefs. This passage also described me so very well. The first part of it was quite similar to

My dominant strength is feeling and being able to help other people. With feeling being my biggest strength, we are best when responsible for winning peoples cooperation with personal caring and practical help. By reading on ESFJ, I found out that I am sociable, orderly, opinioned, conscientious and realistic. All of these definitions fit my personality perfectly and really define who I am.

My third personal strength is probably that I’m a good friend. For example, I love to listen to them when they are upset and always remember to keep in mind that they are sad. I’m always there when they need me, so if they feel like they have no one to go to I’m always there for them. I have a very big sense of humor so I can always make any of my friends laugh. The best thing is that I actually love them and care about them even if they don't care about me in return.

My first strength is discipline which fits me because I set up routines, know deadlines, and am a perfectionist. My second strength is futuristic because I focus on my future a lot, everything that I am doing in my life is going towards the goals I have for my future. My third strength is achiever because I like to achieve at things and do everything in my life to the best of my abilities. My fourth strength is deliberative because I am very careful with my personal life, so I am very private and cautious. My last strength is responsibility because if I have a task that needs to be complete I am someone that myself and others can rely on to get it done.

The results for my test showed that my top 5 strengths are achiever, discipline, positivity, relator and empathy. I wasn’t surprised by my results because they all show up on a daily basis. In college, I like to get things done in a timely manner. I love to stay busy and I can do that because I am great at organizing my life, and writing everything in my planner. Everyday, I try to stay positive and I find that I am always the one to cheer my friends up. I can see situation from their perspective and give them my best advice to help them. Every week, I have set time in my schedule where I call my parents or video chat with my sister or my friends back home. Currently, my major is undecided but I know my five strengths will play a role in my

In strengths quest there is about thirty four strengths.The top five I had were Consistency, Responsibility, Futuristic, Relator, and Harmony. These do describe me but, in very different ways. This gives you the revolutionary approach to achieving your goals. Some people may wonder how does taking a simple test describe my top strengths. Especially without testing them physically. I encourage many people to take the strengths quest test. This will show you your strengths and also help you with everyday struggles.

My first major strength is having patience because I find it important to have patience during a bargain. It shows the other person that I am taking my time to listen what they want to negotiate. Not a lot of people are patience, it could affect during a bargain because it shows me that person doesn’t consider my bargain as important. I find it disrespectful because if I was in that position I want the person to listen to me. Having patience, it is a way to avoid conflict because I am not in a hurry or ignoring the person’s negotiation. My second major strength is self-control because I don’t get angry easily. It is important to have self-control during a bargain because nobody wants to get in a conflict or ruin their chance to do a business

Perseverance, Honesty, Judgement, Self-Regulation, and Prudence are my top five strengths according to the Values In Action (VIA) character survey (2017). The survey suggests that I should work hard to finish what I start, in a timely fashion. I should not get distracted when I work, and I should take satisfaction in completing tasks. I should be a straightforward person, not only by speaking the truth, but by living my life in a genuine and authentic way. I should think things through and examine them from all sides and I should not jump to conclusions because I rely only on solid evidence to make my decisions; however, I am also able to change my mind. I should be able to self-consciously regulate what I feel and what I do because I am a disciplined person. I should also be in control of my appetites and emotions, and I should be one who makes careful and consistent choices with prudence (VIA, 2017).

Humans have been notorious for judging themselves more harshly than their peers for centuries. When asked what their strengths are, they often cannot look past their weaknesses. In 1998, Donald O. Clifton created the "Clifton StrengthsFinder" assessment to help "millions discover and develop their natural talents" (--------------) therefore giving everyone a chance to answer the ago old question: "What are my strengths?" The Clifton assessment gives its participants a description of their top five strengths, mine being the following: Includer, Woo, Communication, Responsibility, and Empathy. At first glance, I was confused at the results but when I read my summary and soon realized the test had pinned me perfectly.

On the subject of my strengths, I believe that I was able to with at least some degree of skill convey

During this week I also examined some of my strengths thanks to the VIA survey of Character Strengths assessments. My top 5 strengths are in fairness, teamwork, forgiveness, open-minded, and humor. I feel like the results were accurate and I really wouldn’t go against them because I know it will be difficult for me to rank my own strengths. Fairness and teamwork will help me in any competition that I go into by myself or with others. Forgiveness will help so that I will not hold any grudges that will hold me back or make me biased on a decision. By being open-minded I can make more friends and not really be at odds with people. Having humor can help keep me positive and help reduce stress. I can’t remember a difficult situation in my life, but I feel that my humor has helped me the most in life.
