☀️Happy Friday! ☀️
This weekend I hope you think about your beautiful strengths. 💪💪
👊Identify 2 of your strengths
👊What do you love to do? (This is a clue if you’re not sure of your strengths)
😃When you’re using your strengths you boost your happiness (this is based on lots of research)
😃I love connecting and communicating with others in ANYWAY I can. My strengths are around activating others and viewing life from a standpoint of possibilities , not limitations. I took most of this for grated for decades but I’m doubling down on it now as a build my coaching practice.
I take a strength bases approach with my clients and this quote hit me hard this morning 🥰
Painter Mariam Paré, who specializes in making paintings by mouth after suffering a spinal cord injury, offers some advice to her younger self:
"If I could talk to myself twenty years ago, I would tell myself to focus on my strengths, and not on my weaknesses; on the things I could do and not the things I couldn’t do; to strive to excel and hone those skills to the point of excellence. That this was the best strategy to secure my future. I would say to myself that the only real obstacles you have are those you create for yourself."
