Strength finder

In almost every personal help book, you can find at least one chapter centered around " know your goal", " find your passion", " have a purpose in life" , " know what you want". But the truth is, although many people know they want to be successful one day, not many people know what they want in life, especially us MBAs.

Here is my thoughts on how we can find what we what in a three steps process: ( always three!)

• Realize you can never be perfect and it's okay to not be perfect ( so you can focus and prioritize)
  
• Free yourself from other people's expecations/view/comments ( so you can be truly honest with yourself)


• Know your own strengths and weakness ( so you can combine your talents with your desire to make it more powerful)
  

Tonight I finally got a chance to discover what my top 5 strengths are from an online test (www.strengthfinder.com) They came out to be:

Achiever: People who are especially talented in the Achiever theme have a great deal of stamina and workhard. They take great satisfaction from being busy and productive.

Activator: People who are especially talented in the Activator theme can make things happen by turning thoughts into action. They are often impatient.

Learner:People who are especially talented in the Learner theme have a great desire to learn and want to continuously improve. In particular, the process of learning, rather than the outcome, excites them.

Retrorative:People who are especially talented in the Restorative theme are adept at dealing with problems. They are good at figuring out what is wrong and resolving it.

Communication: People who are especially talented in the Communication theme generally find it easy to put their thoughts into words. They are good conversationalists and presenters.

So is this me- a person who is not afraid of the hardwork that needs to be put in to work with people in solving problems and puting solutions into action as long as during the process I can contineously improve?

This is a bit too serious for me to accept..
