Personal skills:strengths and weaknesses

      Throughout my life, my strengths and weaknesses tend to gain more clarity, as I grew older. When I was younger, I did not focus too much on this part of myself. I must now use my strengths to improve my habits and my weaknesses to strengthen my faults. Several of my Strengths are centered on my study, because the majority of my time is spent there. Some of my qualities are beneficial to different situations, while the other qualities hinder. Although we describe our strengths as positive attributes and our weaknesses as negative attributes, they make us who or what we are as an individual.

      Each of us is unique in different ways, because of these qualities. It is important to be conscious not just our personal strengths, but also our weaknesses, so we can inquire about help in the areas we need strengthening.

      I have an ability to track different projects at different times.  This ability simultaneously has been very helpful when trying to work on a deadline. Many students describe it as multi-tasking. Everybody has the potential for drastic workplace or school environment change.  Working on different types of assignments weekly has taught me to adapt my skills in a variety of different work situation. Another of my stronger qualities is my computer skill.

     Since my first computer class in high school, I have always been intrigued about computers. The process of inputting data and the speed it sends back the information has been fascinating to me. Today my ability in understanding all work on computer help me to better exactly in learning process.

     The last quality that enhances my personality is structured organization. I provide strength and confidence to my peers and team members in times of unpredicted situations. I try to remain calm, so I can provide direction. A team needs a person they can look up for guidance and support for work or school issues.

     Weakness in person’s character should not be considered a negative factor. Each of us has a flaw or numerous flaws that can, at some point, be improved. One weak point that I have throughout my educational years is a fear of writing. Looking at a blank page is frustrating. I often doubt my abilities to write a first-rate paper. The English language is very confusing. American society uses slang in everyday conversation. It is very difficult to differentiate correct English grammar and slang and then transferring the English language into a paper. Despite my self-doubt, I have assured myself that I will work harder on my writing skills in order to overcome my fear. I want to improve my writing ability and gain the assurance that my writing is satisfactory.
