Recommended: strategic planning

I have never taken the time to really sit down and look at myself as a person. I tend to think inside the box, I’m either good or bad. I don’t take into consideration all of the different parts of me. While taking test after test I have learned so many attributes and strengths that I behold and it gives me hope that I can succeed in school, work, and my personal life by focusing on my strengths and working towards what already works for me.
My results from the Strengths Finder Test are as follows; futuristic, deliberative, discipline, consistency, and restorative. I definitely agree with futuristic. My future is what motivates me. I am always thinking about what I can do now to make a better and brighter future for myself and be successful and happy. I agree with deliberative as well. I tend to be a serious person and I am always looking for the next mistake so that I can fix or prevent it right away. I don’t like when things go sideways, which is weird because I tend to procrastinate and those usually go hand in hand. Discipline is something that is very important to me and I agree with this 100%. I like to have a plan and I like each part of that plan to have a plan. Being organized and ready for what comes next is important to me so I believe that this is very true to my personality. Consistency is another attribute that describes me pretty well. I like balance and I like when people are treated fairly. Lastly there is restorative. I like solving problems and finding a solution when needed, although I do not necessarily seek out a problem to try to fix it. I tend to solve problems when they are brought to my attention.
The next test I took was the Learning Styles Assessment. I found out that Visual is my primary learning st...

...me. I feel that leaving with a certificate and associates degree with good grades will make me feel accomplished and successful. Plus it will help lead me to transferring to a university to further my education in business and open up more doors for my career.
Long Term Goal:
I want to have $4,000 saved up by September of 2016 so I can trade in my car and buy a new Toyota Hybrid. I have been thinking about getting a new car and what I should get and I have come to the conclusion that getting a hybrid would be my best option. I want to attend Seattle U after completing RTC and that will be a long commute since I want to be living at home. I think that this will help a lot and save me money in gas. It will also add responsibility to my plate having a car payment and I am definitely ready for that, as more responsibility is part of growing up and becoming an adult.

    First, by reading over my results it was very helpful to understand why I like putting others before myself, defending those who need it, and always serving others because I am the defender and that’s what 13% of the people around the world do. It is also helpful to understand why I am shyer and introverted because I put others before myself and I serve them. I also felt that by knowing what I am stronger at or weaker of so I know how to approach any situation in the future. The one thing that I found to be least helpful is that even though I know my negative traits, it will be very hard to break those habits because those qualities define who I am. Some of my most accurate responses were supportive, reliable, being a great family man and husband, caring, imaginative and observant, loyal, enthusiastic, hardworking and an admirable employee. Altogether, there was nothing that does not define who I am. These results for me were actually highly

    It took me a little while to think on some of the questions because I had to think about what the true answer was and not just how I wanted to view myself. I’d say most of the results are accurate except for competition and significance. They do not describe my personality because I’m a pretty laid back person and I do not like to measure myself according to other achievements because it would drive me crazy to live my life that way. I’m the type of person that doesn’t care about what other people think about me unless it is my close family and friends. On the other hand discipline was very accurate. I’m the type of person that will get things done because I control that part of my life. I need to be in control of most things in my life or it is too unpredictable and that scares

    I feel like this is an accurate assessment of my personality and I think this is a characteristic that will be beneficial to me when I am in the counseling profession.

Empathy means being able to sense or feel other’s feelings and being able to imagine yourself in another person’s situation. I know that this will be beneficial for me as a counselor because empathy is one of the most crucial characteristics for the therapeutic relationship. Input is my third strength. This means that I am inquisitive, naturally curious, and seek information about many things. I think this is helpful for me as a counselor because we are expected to be life-long learners and actively continue our education. Connectedness was my fourth strength and it means that people who have this strength believe that all people are connected and that we are responsible for others. It also

    In today’s society, people like to believe they are different or unique; however, we all share the same qualities as far as our weaknesses and strengths go. While one group’s greatest strength might be forgiveness, it might be another group’s greatest weakness. It is important for people to know what their greatest weaknesses and strengths are because these qualities help define who people are. Furthermore, it is crucial for people to not only focus on their negative qualities, but to also focus on their positive qualities. Upon taking the “VIA Survey of Character Strengths,” I learned what my top five strengths are, how my weakest strength is also one of my top strengths, and how I already incorporate them into my everyday life.
