The gist is that if you are not
working with these strengths you will feel down. But if you work with them you
will feel great and are able to do things better.
The five signature strengths for me
are:
1)
Creativity,
Ingenuity and originality
2)
Bravery
and valor
3)
Judgement,
Critical thinking and open-mindedness
4)
Appreciation
of Beauty and Excellence
5)
Curiosity
and interest in the world
Which I must say is quite accurate.
I do like and have fun squeezing my
brains for ideas and working with problems. And making up some problems too.
I can be quite arrogantly brave
especially if I have a strong towards reaching a particular goal. But not all
the time though. Sometimes I do sheep out and hide.
Judgement. Yes I am quite
judgemental but I do try to learn more, gather more evidence before doing
something. And depending on the situation I can be quite open-minded to listen
and constructively debate on other’s ideas.
Appreciation of Beauty and
Excellence. Yes, I am the kind of person who can stand in front of an Excellent
artwork with no idea of time passing by just appreciating it. Go on to
meditative mind states staring at beauty be it an artwork, the sunrise, or
butterflies passing through.
Curiosity and interest in the world.
Yes. I am very interested in the world. It’s workings and how to work with it.
