Personal Narrative: My Five 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.

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.

It is my responsibility to make the right decisions and demonstrate how to take appropriate action when necessary. I also enjoy being someone my little brother can come to when he needs advice and I value his reliance in me. After school, I help him do his homework and provide encouragement to persist in meeting his goals. By paving footsteps for my little brother to follow, I display my ability to be an admirable

My five strengths that strengthsquest gave me is Input, Connectedness, Relator, Futuristic, and Responsibility. Each of these strengths definitely describe me and how I look at my life. I have worked in retail and customer service for the past four years and I use each of my strengths while working with the customers.

My Signature Themes are achiever, arranger, responsibility, input, and significance. Each of these are very significant in defining my strengths and showing me how to best use my strengths in my future. My first strength was achiever and this is representing me as a whole, and is what I use in everyday life. I am a driven person who wants to accomplish many things and I visualize my life as a mountain that I will overcome every day and at the end of every day I will have a beautiful view of what I have accomplished. I use every day in events such as: relentless volunteering, working long hours and everything is done with an impeccable sense of satisfaction after completion. My second and third strengths are arranger and responsibility. These

Here are my five words before reading chapter 7. I tried to think way back when my daughter was an infant and came up with the five words that she would say; however, not in the order that she learned the words I am sure.

There was five characters their names were Dariah Lockhart, Bria Hill Ashely Fraizer , and Khamia Carter and June Glover which is me . These people are former students of Tree Hill High School. We just took graduation pictures last week . We are all on the tree hill ravens cheer team . But they got this new student Abby Johnson , she tried to take over the cheer team the ravens . Nobody liked her at all because she always thought she was better than everybody . But about the characters Khamia and me are just new to the school. But Bria , Ashely , and dariah has been here since Freshman year .

The five components are a big part of my life. I belong to a loving and caring community called SHC. We all help one another and support one another. We show the community support in many ways, from Bruce Mahoney games to, setting next to a classmate who is sitting alone during lunch. When I’m not with my community I’m with my institution. My ancestry are the people who defined who I’m. They give me unconditional love yet always helping me get to the next step. I would one day want the world to be like my community and my institution. A world without any judgement (gay, people with color, homeless) . A former addict at Saint Anthony told us, “The people who are homeless was one time just like you, living a normal life.” Everyone is still human so why treat others differently. A great start to getting rid of this world problem is to start with service. It does not take skills to serve and help someone. This does not mean go volunteer at a soup kitchen every day, yet just spend some time talking with the people. You will have similar idea and share similar things. Last component is Sacrament. Many things symbolize me throughout the years, but I symbolize my life to a mountain range. I have up and down yet I never crumble. However myself is a different symbol. I’m

The ten years I was lucky enough to have with you many valuable lessons were learned the from getting up early to help you with everything whether it be repairing a roof, changing truck tires, or simply planting a garden. We would always work our ass off to help anyone in need. There was work and something to learn. Dad knew best so we always had fun even when it was just making dinner, playing cards, or shooting guns. Those times shaped me into who I am; I learned a lot following his every footstep, watching carefully, and asking lots of question. Thankful for the ten years I had with you and the nine you have kept me safe while I raised hell and stood up for what I believed in.

One doesn’t question miracles, one embraces them to the fullest. Although I was cutting it close, the fact that I was able to complete all requirements to surpass the rank of Life Scout before my 18th birthday was truly remarkable. My former Boy Scout Leader of Troop 1, Rodney Hanson, provided me with an enormous amount of encouragement and support to focus on the required merit badges necessary for advancement. My leader motivated me to accomplish great things within the Boy Scouts of America.

How my dependable strengths go with my good experience. To start with is what is my dependable strengths are people, word, and picture smart. My good experience I pick was about getting an A on a quiz in science. How my good experiences goes in with my dependable strengths.

I am looking for my first gig on this site, and hope you are willing to take a chance on a newby of sorts. I do not have a website or proof of my writing skills, other than this Cover Letter. That doesn't mean I have no experience with either. I do have a rather unusual need for privacy, so I rarely share my information on social sites and whatnot. I took a chance on this site, as I also have a need to be productive, I kinda like to eat, and sorta enjoy the roof over my head.

Well since it's a risk, I'll go for it. I will say one thing that no one knows about me. I might appear okay on the outside but on the inside, I'm just an insecure kid trying to find her way in the world. I try to fix other people's problem and most time neglecting my own. Most people think that everything is going smooth for me not knowing that there is a turmoil brewing inside me trying to find a light, seeking for assurance that all is gonna be well. A friend once asked me to tell him more about me. Laughing, I started to talk but nothing came out.

That is, until I was nine and fainted at the sight of my own blood when I cut my finger.

I have never believed in the rod or the belt, nevertheless, I learned to respect them both. I never believed that the universe and its cosmic upheaval were formed by chance, but I eventually came to respect that belief and its proponents. I have never believed that all things were meant to be conducted or said in any one specific way, and in spite of myself, I begrudgingly respect this and whoever sees things this way. My respect for these things is not born of fear, admiration or any reason one would typically find in cogitation or meditation, but of experience. (101)
