1. Strength is the ability to consistently provide near-perfect performance in a specific activity. From this I learned more about myself and related a lot of things to my everyday life. I feel like I can use these Strengths to symbolize the art of becoming a psychologist. I can relate to a chameleon for knowing how to adapt to different environments quickly.
2. Talents are naturally recurring patterns of thought, feeling, or behavior that can be productively applied. Talents need to be time spent, practice, developing your skills, and building your knowledge base that combine to create your strengths.
3. My five strongest strengths are: Adaptability, Empathy, Restorative, Intellection, and Connectedness. Most of my strengths are relationship ones and I feel like I am a very big people person. I can adapt quickly to any type of environment; I care about others feelings and put myself in their shoes; I try to help people resolve their problems; I think very hard on what to do; and finally everything happens for a reason.
4. The skill that made a huge impact on my life was Restorative. I really believe I am this way and the part that stood out the most to me was “I love to bring things back to life... and restore something to its true glory.” The last three words of the whole paragraph “you saved it.” Made me realize that I have changed many peoples’ lives in a positive aspect just by attempting to help and make sure things are going well for them.
5. Now that I
StrengthsQuest Paper My Strengths are Discovered! “By the end of the day you must achieve something tangible in order to feel good about yourself. No matter how much you may feel you deserve a day of rest, if the day passes without some form of achievement, no matter how small, you will feel dissatisfied.” (PH.Ds, Clifton, O., Anderson, E., Schreiner, L., Pg 26) When I read this quote in our StrengthsQuest text I felt as if I was describing my own personality while starring at myself in the…

his creations of Middle-Earth are an adventure that all must at least attempt to read. Another strength of Tolkien is the great story. The Journey fits the typical stereotype of the Hero Quest. The further into Middle Earth he travels, the difficulty, and risk; of the challenges Bilbo faces increase. He begins with an attempt to pickpocket a group of Trolls and soon discovers the courage and strength to confront the great dragon Smaug, all alone, deep in Smaug’s lair. Of course, Bilbo’s journey…
Thesis - Odysseus’s real power as a hero does not come merely from his physical strength, but instead his cunningness, ability to resist temptations, and fearlessness, the qualities he demonstrated during his quest home. The Odyssey is one of the two major Greek epic poems written by Homer. It is a sequel to Iliad, which describes the fictional conflict between a coalition of Greeks and the occupants of Troy, known as The Trojan War. After the Greeks victoriously end the war, due to Odysseus’s…
Cameron Langley HES 250 April 15, 2013 When choosing a career one must take into consideration many variables. Strengths, weaknesses, likes, dislikes, and so on. After taking the MBTI assessment, strengths quest, and researching various career paths, I have decided to pursue a career in the cloud computing field. After taking the MBTI assessment I learned that my four letters are ESTP. ESTP stands for extraversion, sensing, thinking, and perceiving. This four letter acronym means that I focus…
woman who triumphs over obstacles. The classic hero is not necessarily all-powerful and immortal. Heroes represent the best of what it means to be human; they demonstrate great strength, courage, wisdom, cleverness, or devotion. The hero’s quest is often seen as a symbol of the journey of self- discovery, a quest to overcome inner monsters and finally achieve an understanding of themselves. Beowulf and Hercules embody the positive and negative traits associated with being a hero. Two of…
believed to have been written in the 7th or 8th century as the first piece of English literature. The story is one of a great hero who has many encounters with inhumanly monsters on his quest for glory. The hero of the poem, Beowulf, demonstrates all of the characteristics of an archetypical hero. From having superior strength to incredible courage to performing brave deeds Beowulf showed it all. He truly was the perfect role-model for the Anglo-Saxon culture. Beowulf’s first battle is with the evil monster…

notice that almost all action/adventure movies and novels are the same. All of their stories fit the archetypal pattern of a heroic quest. A heroic quest consists of twelve steps that the hero completes throughout his or her journey. In this essay, I will be explaining the parallels between Watership Down by Richard Adams and the archetypal pattern of a heroic quest; as well as the parallels between…
Works of C.G. Jung. Hopcke describes the Wise Old Man as “a quietness, a hermitlike secretiveness, a force expressed not in the phallic thrustings of the Hero or in the procreativity of the Father but a force that comes from within, a magical strength that guides and fortifies one in one’s inner struggles” (Hopcke, 1989, p. 117). The Mandela can be described as The Ring which Bilbo found and put in his pocket, after he regained consciousness and saw it laying near him. This ring gave him the…
