Our strengths are those qualities that restore us, those things we feel passionate about and enjoy. By concentrating on strengths our positivity and energy is increased and we can use them to work on our challenges and goals. Knowing your strengths and using them effectively can have a positive impact on your life.
People who focus on their strengths seem to be happier, feel less stressed, feel healthier, have more energy, are more confident and experience faster growth and development.
Try thinking about what you really enjoy doing, what activities do you spend ages doing without realising, what activities give you a boost of energy rather than feeling tired? This will help determine if your strength is being committed, organised, confident, brave, creative, enthusiastic (just to list a few!)
Sometimes, we find it hard to think about ourselves, so we may need to ask others to see how they view us – they may even notice things you hadn’t.
In our wellbeing groups, we discuss what our strengths are and how this affects our work. If we are determined – we keep going until it’s done. If we are a team player – we help each other. If we are brave – we try new things, even when they seem difficult.
