Via Character Strengths

Via Character Strengths

This quiz gave me 24 character strengths, however I chose the two 4 to talk about in this blog. 

Forgiveness:
My top strength was forgiveness. I do in some way agree with this because I am a pretty forgiving person. I don't like making people upset even if they make me upset, and I always love giving people a second chance. However, being a forgiving person does scare me. I wouldn't necessarily call it a strength myself, as being an overly forgiving person can cause people to take advantage of that and walk all over you. 

Gratitude:
I am definitely a person to show gratitude and always say thank you. I am extremely thankful for everything in my life and when someone does something for me I want them to know that I'm thankful, so I always say thank you. I definitely believe this is a great quality to have and I'm really happy I have this strength. And I agree that this would be in my top four strengths and qualities. 

Social Intelligence:
Social Intelligence is the ability to get along well with others, and to get them to cooperate with you. I 100% agree that I have this quality because I like to believe I'm a nice person. I'm someone who always just gets along with others. This quality would definitely come in handy when working in any work place. 

Love:
I think this strength kind of ties into social Intelligence. I have close relationships with lots of people because I'm caring and kind person who loves to make friends with everyone. 

Overall, I do believe that these 4 qualities are definitely my top 4 strengths. 

This quiz suggested career paths such as a Social Worker or a Therapist. I personally don't have any interest in any of these jobs, as although I like to help people, I'm not one who likes to deal with serious issues. I have also always had a passion for working with animals.

Mind:

I do agree with my results to an extent. I'm not the type person to get super excited about going out, or meeting new people. I love having time to myself or even with just a few friends, to just hangout and relax. I consider myself an anti-social person I guess, someone who isn't also comfortable or keen to socialize, especially with new people, I just get nervous and anxious. However, I do enjoy going out every once in a while with my friends and having fun. So I do believe I am an introvert however maybe only 60%. 

Tactics:

I do agree that I don't always enjoy following a set plan, I like to just go with the flow and be flexible when it come to dealing with both expected and unexpected challenges. However, sometimes, especially in situations I'm unfamiliar with or uncomfortable with I will like a plan, but most the time I just go with the flow.

Identity:

My results said I'm 88% turbulent, which I do agree with. I'm the type of person to get stressed out, however I don't always know why I'm stressed, which makes me even more stressed. However, I can usually overcome the stress by just relaxing and listening to music. I can also be extremely self-conscious in certain situations, such as being around a large number of people. I also have a drive to improve everything I do, and am always eager. All I want is to do my best, which is what turbulent person wants. 

Overall, I believe most of my results from this chart are accurate. 

My overall result for this whole quiz was that I'm a 'mediator'. 

I'm a true idealist. I love to believe there is good in everybody and everything. I'm calm and reserved, however, I have an inner drive and flame to truly shine and do my best. 

Mediators are seen as inspired and creative people, who are skilled in poetry, writing and acting. I don't necessarily agree that I'm a creative person, and I am definitely not a poet and I am far from a good writer. However, my parents say I'm good at acting and can be a bit of a drama queen. 

Mediators are people who take things personally, and can get quite self-conscious when around others. They are private people who usually keep to themselves however, put in a great deal of effort to make sure everybody's happy. 

I personally think I have both these weaknesses, if that's what you would like to call them. I do have a habit of taking things personally, however don't usually show that I'm affected. I do consider myself a reserved person to an extent however can be extremely outgoing when around people I'm comfortable with. I will definitely keep to myself when around unfamiliar people, but can be more out going when with friends. I don't usually share my feelings with people unless I'm in desperate need of a rant, however if I'm and close with the person or feel comfortable, I will usually just spill everything. I do have to agree that I feel guilt a lot. I tend to say things as jokes a lot, however straight after I say it I will always say sorry or just kidding to make sure they didn't take it personally because I feel guilty. 

Overall, I do agree that I'm a mediator, and do agree with most of the results given from this quiz. 

Lion, Beaver, otter or Golden Retriever

Lion, Beaver, Otter or Golden Retriever 

My outcome from this quiz was the Golden Retriever. It states that I am loyal and caring however can be a sensitive person. I don't like the idea of change and only have a few close friends that I'm willing to share my thoughts and feelings too. 

I 100% agree that I'm a Golden Retriever. I was actually going to be a little worried if I didn't get it to be honest. I believe I am a caring and loyal person, who is willing to help anyone and everyone. However I can be sensitive at times and take things personally, especially when it comes to bad comments or people putting me down. I have deep relationships, and only with a few close friends, which are usually the only people I'm willing to share my thoughts and feelings with. I'm the type of person who wants to be loved by everyone. I don't like the idea of someone hating me, which is one reason why I'm a nice person. 

I would definitely recommend this quiz to a friend as I believe is provides accurate answers, based upon my outcome.
