The Strengths Quest Analysis

We tend to obsess over our weaknesses rather than recognizing our strengths, but the strengths quest introduced us to a different philosophy. Instead of dwelling on our weaknesses or desperately trying to turn them into strengths, we should focus on the strengths we already have and built upon them to succeed. The Strengths Quest presentation was my favorite part of the course. The Strengths Quest is a 30-minute online assessment that asks us a series of questions and determines what our five top strengths are based on our choices. The presentation helped us gain insights on how to use our strengths to our advantage. We learned about each of our strengths and how they can help us succeed in academics, work, relationships, and choosing a career.

They are flexible and they are comfortable with change which definitely does not sound like me. I need structure and order to function properly. This time I got Restorative instead of Adaptability, a much better fit for me. People with Restorative as one of their top five strengths are described as problem solvers and troubleshooters.

My results chose Context as my first strength. However, I do not believe Context is my number one, but it definitely does belong in the top five. History has always been one of my favorite subjects and I often find myself thinking about the past, analyzing it, and using it to solve issues in the present. My second strength was Analytical, which
