Sometimes our challenges show us our strengths. You may have found that you’re tougher than you thought. Or that you’re capable of feeling deeply.
Let’s take a moment to focus on your strengths.
You are a complete and whole person with unique strengths. Understanding your strengths will help you better know yourself, and will help you flourish.
Everyone has challenges. Which strengths have helped you get through some of your life challenges?
Have you ever surprised yourself with your abilities? Have you ever thought, “I can’t believe I was actually able to…”

On the next few pages, we’ll list a bunch of strengths. Spend some time picking yours. Try to pick at least three.
