Reflective Account On Strengths And Weaknesses

Decent Essays
However I recognised that I could not just focus and rely on my strengths, I also needed to be aware of my weaknesses to work successfully at Orion, and sometimes accepting these weaknesses is the hardest part. As I progress through my placement, I believe I will build on the skills I have learned at AUT and develop the skills required to manage both my strengths and weaknesses. This will assist towards achieving my goals of building strong working relationships within my team, managing my time management and stress levels and will allow me to focus on the vision and goals of the organisation.

    I thought the Survey of Character Strengths was an interesting survey to take. My first and second strengths were not particularly surprising to me, however my third was not what I necessarily expected it to be, but I am certainly not unhappy with it. All three strengths are values I have always admired because I have grown up watching my parents and older siblings showcase all three. I have consciously tried to emulate their example regarding these strengths and it was intriguing and encouraging to see all three show up in the survey. I was glad to see which strength showed up as my top, as kindness and generosity are especially important to me.…

    The first chapter was very informative in the understanding of psychology. It made me want to rethink of how I perceive myself and others. Even though I learned about scientific research and observations in school and how to apply them to science experiments. I never thought about applying this to people, but after I did this it changed how I viewed people. An example of this is when I would sit at a park and do what I would call people watching.…
