What Are Your Strengths?

We all have our strengths and weaknesses. I pride myself with some of the strengths I have. One of my strengths I would say is I’m a quick learner. I also feel communication is a strong point of mine, and also my self confidence.

Whether it was in the classroom, in life, or on the job; I have always been able to pick up things fairly quickly. I am more of a visual person therefore, if I am shown something rather than told or reading something from a book I pick it put pretty fast. Don’t get me wrong, I pick up things faster than most people even when things are explained to me. Normally someone can show me or tell me something a couple of times and I get it. I am not without flaws. There are times that things don’t quite register. However, for the most part I learn fast.

Communication in my opinion might be my biggest strength. That may be due in part to the fact that I love to talk. Communication comes in handy in both my personal and professional life. I have to be able to communicate in my field of work. I am very verbal in communicating my feelings and concerns in my personal life. I know one complaint I will never hear from anyone is she can’t communicate.

One may ask why I would say self confidence is one of my strengths? I have a simple answer to that question. I believe in myself. I would be lying if I said I don’t have days when I don’t believe in myself. We all have those days. Once I get over that initial fear I have no doubt in my mind I can do whatever I set my mind to. Some people may say I’m cocky, but those who truly know me say it’s one of my strengths.

Of course these are not my only strengths. In order to list them all I would have to write a book. As I stated before, I pride myself in being a quick learner, a great communicator, and believing in myself. I am not perfect by far. Even so I believe my strengths outweigh my weaknesses.
