What is It
“What are your strengths and weaknesses?” While others can easily answer this
question, it may sound tricky to some individuals because they do not take time
to evaluate themselves. But how do we define strengths and weaknesses?
You were able to develop these strengths because you probably spent much time
focusing on these areas or as a result of our observation. Strength, however, is
much more than that. According to Marcus Buckingham and Donald Clifton,
authors of Now, Discover Your Strength, a true strength meets three criteria:
(1) you are good or have the potential to be good at it; (2) you are energized by
doing it; and (3) it benefits something greater than yourself.
A self-knowledge is a powerful tool that can help you nurture your professional
interactions and stabilize your personal life. While this is something you will
have to figure out mostly on your own, there are exercises you can do to identify
your strengths and weaknesses.
Clarify your core values. Some beliefs will shape your think about yourself,
others, and the world around you. Determine whether your life aligns with
your values. Living life with those values is called “value-congruent” living,
2
and it can lead to a greater feeling of satisfaction. Consider whether or not the
environment you live in is conducive to your strengths and personal
attributes. Think about how you can either change the situation or move to
an environment within which your strengths might be more highly valued.

Activity 2: Road to Success!
One of the advantages of knowing your strengths and weaknesses is that it can
help you achieve your aspirations in life. However, it does mean that your
journey will be smooth because there will be some instances in life that are
beyond our control.
To stay focus on your life’s goal, you can create a road map that shows your
goal, as well as your strengths that can help you in your journey in achieving
your goal and also the weaknesses that may impede you along the way.
Direction: Create a road map by filling in the shapes with needed information.
