Recommended: Strengths and weakness personal assessment

The results from my StrengthsFinder are accurate in most areas of the descriptions. The questionnaire identified the following: achiever, discipline, empathy, deliberative, and relator. I can see all of these playing a role in the type of person I am at this very moment in my life. I took a strengths quest survey in high school and I still possess two of the same strengths which goes to show I do not change my ways too often.
The results say I am an achiever meaning I like to have something tangible completed by the end of each day no matter the circumstance. I completely agree I do not like to have a to do list as long as the page. I like to feel in control of what is thrown my way. I demonstrate achiever on a daily basis and have ever since …show more content…

I think that has to do with how my mind operates because I always have questions. Typically, if my questions cannot be answered then I do not like it. The definition for discipline is exactly how I try to live my life. I demonstrate it every time I get an assignment and start a new week. I even have the same patterns for getting ready in the mornings. However, it states the person is not neat which does not fit my personality. I have to be neat and organized because if not I feel like my routines are not working. This strength will help me in my future by getting things accomplished on time or even early. It enables me to not get off task. This helps me in my personal life by reducing my stress and making each day of my life especially in school go by …show more content…

I demonstrate this quite often with school work or when I go somewhere. I am always observing others for my own safety. The definition says the person is serious which is me for the most part. I have always been more mature for my age so I do not always find everything hilarious like my peers. This will help with my career by enabling me to assess options and which one is the best for the patient based on the risks. In my personal life this helps keep me grounded and safe.
Relator deals with relationships and says I am pulled towards people I already know. I can see myself doing that ,but I mostly demonstrate this theme with friends I have had for years. I always want to know more about them. This will help me in my career by making my patients feel like more than just patients. I find people are more at ease in hospitals when you have normal conversation. In my personal life it helps me stay on top of the relationships I have with people ensuring they are

    735 Words  | 2 Pages

    Writing essays was never my forte, it just never came easy to me like it would to others. Since other subjects came easy to me and I had to focus more than others on writing, I had a negative attitude toward the process as a whole. During this summer semester, I was able to grow as a writer, and gain a more positive attitude toward how I write and a better feel for writing in college. Writing a paper is a process in which there are many different stages. In high school I would never write outlines or any sort of pre planning work. Other struggles I encountered in my writing were my theses, and framing quotes.

  • Explain The Strengths And Weaknesses Of Social Work

    This strength, in particular, influenced my decision to pursue social work as a career because cases will often be complex and I know that changes do not occur overnight and positive results only occur within time. I mastered the strength of being patient because growing up with an older sibling often requires you to learn patience. One aspect I realized was I don’t get frustrated easily and that is because I can be a patient person. The second strength I possess is being empathetic for example when a friend or family member shares something that may not be going to good in their life I like to pretend I am in their shoes, I like to provide empowerment and also be relatable, often times when one of my friends is upset over a situation I tend to get upset as well. I like to look at events through a sociological lens so I can better understand the situation. The last strength I possess is dedication, I feel this will influence my decision to pursue social work because I put my heart and soul into every aspect of my life, for example, I am quite dedicated to my studies, in High School I worked extremely hard to make it into the top ten of my graduating class and by being dedicated to my school work I ended up being number five. I am an extremely dedicated person because I do not like to fail, and I’ll always give it my all until I can no longer do so, I believe I would be a good social worker because I’d be dedicated to my client trying my hardest to provide the best of the

    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. This is a characteristic that I relate to counselors and advocating for clients. Empathy was listed as my second strength. 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

The online quiz assesses you talents and strengths with which you can develop by reading the book ,Strengths Quest, which explains your abilities. The quiz takes thirty minutes to ask about various topics that determine your top five strengths or “themes of talent”. When I first read the synapsis on the back of the book I was skeptical about the accuracy of the quiz’s ability to determine what I’m like based on one hundred and thirty questions. Once I finished the test I still questioned the truth behind the results, until I read the book. I believe that Strengths Quest is a helpful tool that will help me through my college career. The test determined that my personal talents were: adaptability, learner, input, relator, and intellection. Each attribute is presented in the order of the strongest to the weakest. I feel as though the strengths are accurate because I see the similarities between them and my personality.

  • Reflection Of Leadership: Theory, And Trait Approach

    Other strengths include being self-confident, conscientious, diligent and determined. It was interesting to see my lower scores as well; the lowest average score was sensitivity (3.2), followed closely by self-assuredness and perception and empathy. Although I consider myself sensitive, I believe the sense of sensitivity does not apply as often towards others I interact with. For example, I often speak my mind and voice my opinion with little thought of the consequence or impact it might have on those around me. Thus, sensitivity is not one of my existing strengths, but rather an opportunity for growth. I also found it interesting to note how I scored significantly lower in the human skill, and higher in technical, which I did not expect. This score likely correlates with my score form the LTQ, which identified room for improvement in relating with
