My Strengths

Okay, after that long and arduous struggle... Fine, it was just an easy quiz, but when you're half-asleep, everything that takes any brain power is transformed into a desperate fight against... yeah. Ahem. Anyways. My top five strengths are adaptability, input, developer, harmony, and empathy.

Adaptability
People strong in the Adaptability theme prefer to "go with the flow." They tend to be "now" people who take things as they come and discover the future one day at a time.
Input
People strong in the Input theme have a craving to know more. Often they like to collect and archive all kinds of information.
Developer
People strong in the Developer theme recognize and cultivate the potential in others. They spot the signs of each small improvement and derive satisfaction from these improvements.
Harmony
People strong in the Harmony theme look for consensus. They don't enjoy conflict; rather, they seek areas of agreement.
Empathy
People strong in the Empathy theme can sense the feelings of other people by imagining themselves in others' lives or others' situations.

(A) Mom: "Your "go with the flow" attitude may seem like irresponsibility to those who prefer structure and predictability. They may get irritated with what they perceive to be sloppiness or carelessness."
(A) "Because you live in the moment, you might find yourself easily distracted by new things that come along. You might be particularly likely to drop everything when your friends want you to go out with them." I almost did that when all of Adams Hall went for a donut run at 9:30 at night the night before my health test... But I did stay and study!
(I) Reading over this description makes me wish I were a science major so that I could learn even more!! This describes me perfectly, I think... It would explain why I always was obsessed with learning everything about Pokemon. Haha...
(D) This would explain why I'm drawn to young children... and vice versa. Yay.
(H) Um, I don't know. I do like to avoid conflicts, usually. Unless I really think I'm right.
(E) Ooh, I like this one. It's almost like I'm special and helpful and stuff. No, I really do think it fits...

Well, lets see, for the most part I do so agree with them. Miss Ally you are by far a very "go with the flow" person. Which suites you quite nicely. Among the other things mentioned. They're all good traits that you excel in. Be merry! :D

Though, I do believe you need one in there for "Absolutely-amazingly-awesome-and-amicable"


:]

Your strengths are definately what you described. First off, adaptability speaks for itself- you moving from where you once lived to now illustrates that clearly.
Input? I think the most questions I have ever heard from in my life must be you- and that beats my little cousin asking me "why?" for everything.
I believe your kid-skills mostly comes from your ability to, as you say, cultivate potential in others; I believe that strength also helps you in helping and comforting others.
I think you are very harmonious, in a level where you love harmony, and keep it balanced in a playful sense so-to-speak. Finally, empathy applies to you in the way that you handle situations concerning people's feelings. I think that empathy and harmony help you a lot when you're helping people.
In all, I think that the strengths you chose really suit you, and that if you could choose one more, being energetic should be one of them.
You're pretty much a super-person, soyeah, keep doing your best. <3

Hey!
Ally, I have noticed that you seem to want to be in peaceful surroundings and that if they don't exist, you are able to help others in making the environment less chaotic, thus invoking your "Harmony" strength. :)

I can tell ya got harmony. You're seem nice and someone who could never get too crazy. As much as you got Harmony, I'm not sure if you have Bone Thugz to go with it, though. Jood gob.

In the short time that I have known you, Harmony definitely shines through as one of your strengths. You seem to have the type of personality that likes to keep everything in balance. You also seem very adaptable to changing surroundings.

Hey Ally, you are very lucky that adaptability is your biggest strength. I have not been around you much, although by your quietness I can tell you are very "go with the flow" and handle change very well. *Kristin
