 |  What are your best strenghts?
In reality it's really hard to point out our greatest strength compare to our weaknesses. By opening this thread I hope to open up ourselves and share it's others ideas to help us find our strengths and find assistance to the areas where we need improvement. My strength: 1.) I am an optimist 2.) creative 3.) resourceful 4.) enthusiastic towards new things 5.) friendly 6.) persistence Weaknesses: 1.) Emotional 2.) high temper 3.) lack of focus 4.) poor decision making |

I like this topic a lot. I have to say I've spent quite some time figuring out what my strengths and weaknesses really are. My strengths: 1. My passion towards fitness. 2. Desire to achieve/to be the best. 3. Optimism/enthusiasm. 4. Love of learning. 5. Self-belief. 6. English. 7. My body. 8. Desire to improve something every day. My weaknesses: 1. Temper in arguments. 2. My ankles. 3. Anxiety in social situations. 4. Sometimes care too much about others opinion (I do things my way regardless but the feeling that I care makes me anxious). 5. Feel awkward when I'm quiet. 6. Hard to concentrate on one thing for a long time/impatience. Last edited by Lifeisamazing; 09-10-2010 at 08:00 AM. |

Would be interesting to know how people overcome their weaknesses- either by working round them or by curing them. For me, my greatest weakness is my laziness. TBH, I'm not really dealing with it all that well, but I do tend to act quickly when I feel motivated. |
