Perseverance, Judgement, Self-Regulation, And Prudence?

I was very surprised with the results of this test because of its accuracy. All five of my strengths relate to me, although the order of them may be a little off. These top five are easily the most accurate towards describing me. I believe relator and adaptability are the two that fit me best and they are my number five and number two.

“An applicant's handshake may be crucial at a job interview. But a personality test can tell a company what's behind that handshake” (Korn, 2012). When you think about a job interview you have gone on recently, do you think about what your strengths are? I can assure you that the people interviewing you are looking to see what you strengths are, whether it is in the form of asking you directly or in observing how you interact and answer the questions. I recently did a self-assessment strengths test by using the Strengths

To no great surprise, the results of the StrengthsFinder survey revealed that my five strengths are; Restorative, Empathy, Harmony, Adaptability, and Arranger. While reading each of the strengths, I found myself agreeing aloud with each one. For example, in 2014 my family had a wonderful birthday/Spring Break trip planned for my son, three days prior my beloved grandmother passed away unexpectedly. I was faced with, what I consider, a difficult situation. How could I leave my mother and aunt with making funeral arrangements along? After months of planning, how could I tell my children that we would need to cancel our week long family vacation? In an effort to fulfill my obligations with everyone, I decided that we would go on our family vacation.

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.

Tom Rath’s “Strengths Finder 2.0” on-line assessment identified that my top five strengths are: Strategic, Focus, Futuristic, Significance, and Learner. I see the Strength Finder Assessment as a great opportunity to get to know my personal strengths and it motivates me to work and practice my talents rather than trying to fix my weaknesses. Looking only at my strengths is a new type of skills-building which allows me to stay focus on my talents.

Strengths Finder 2.0 identifies my top five strengths are adaptability, restorative, individualization, communication and strategic. I must use these strengths every day in my job and my home life. These strengths are apparent in all areas of my life both at work and home.

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 like to be Faced with any given scenario they can quickly spot the relevant patterns and issues.. I improve things about myself and other people or situations. I am “fascinated by problems that puzzle,confound or frustrate most people”. My other strength is Belief. I have certain core values that are unchanging. My family is my top priority and I am driven by my talents. The strengthsquest helped me understand who really I am. I am always been an independent person who wants to complete every wish my family dreams about. A person who’s only goal in life is to make my life proud. It helped me understand what are my quantiles that my friends and family like about me. It showed me what are my strong point are like my beliefs. It also helped me what my strong leadership skills

Based off my result after taking the VIA Survey of Character Strengths survey my first strength is my judgment, my effective use of critical thinking, and my open-mindedness. I agree with this because I actually spend more time thinking things through and assessing the cost and rewards than I do with the action I was originally thinking about. The Second Strength was Fairness, equity, and justice. I do agree with this strength but its description is not how I would describe it. I treat all people fairly and how I would want to be treated. I may give everyone a chance but ultimately I believe you get what you give; if you treat others good will get the same in return. I completely agree with the third strength- Hope, optimism, and future-mindedness.

An example of an assessment that I completed to identify my strengths was the Strengths Based Leadership assessment created by Tom Rath and Barry Conchie (2008). As shown in Table 1, my five strengths, according to the Strengths Based Leadership Report, are restorative, includer, achiever, woo and positivity. Restorative is a strength that was defined on the report as making newcomers feel welcomed (Rath & Conchie, 2008, p. 3). This strength also included attempting to enhance my performance and efficiency (Rath & Conchie, 2008, p. 3). People with this strength also tend to gravity towards others who are honest and give constructive criticism (Rath & Conchie, 2008, p. 3). This strength manifests in my work and life through speaking with newcomers and consistently asking my

My core value from the strengths assessment was courage, as it reiterated in the face of opposition exercising perseverance, honesty and bravery (all in my top 5) will allow me to accomplish goals internally and externally within the company I choose to work for.

Trying to decide what your personal strengths are, is hard. For myself, I have grown in my strengths, and I’ve experienced my weaknesses. My personal strengths consist of: positivity, encouragement, laughter, and love. I pick these four because I feel that I am truly strongest in these aspects of my life. Being positive is a big factor in everything I do. I always want to be happy and joyful; not only to display Christ in me, but to make others feel the way I do. I want others to appreciate life and to feel any kind of uplift in his or her spirt. Positivity plays into encouragement. I make it my goal to make others feel better about themselves. My goal coming into college was to learn and know every person(s) name that I got the chance to meet. Just taking a few minutes out of your day to truly get to know someone, is such a blessing. It not only blesses me in new friendships, but it also blesses others because they feel that someone genuinely cares about them. Laughter is another characteristic I strive to pour out onto others. I laugh at practically everything. I love to laugh, and I love to make people laugh. I’ve learned the importance of laughter, and I just want to make one person smile every day. Love is my last of the four attributes. Love is so important to me. I love creation (Trees, birds, squirrels), God, and I love people. I just want the love that God has given me, to pour out onto others. I want others to know that I love them. These are my personal strengths

My personal strengths are that I am a keen learner and organized person because like Benjamin Franklin I believe that if I fail to plan then I am planning to fail. Above all I am confident that I have made the right choice and that I am a suitable candidate for

I like to think I have many strengths. After review of my character/ personality test, I can see what they are. I am a task-oriented leader, which drives me to finish a project. I have a strong individual work ethic, which allows me to be responsible and not rely on others. I am good at building and leading
