The Way We See Me

The way I see myself definitely varies from one degree to another. For instance, I am not at all tactful as I am imaginative. This is another reason why I perceive myself as being slightly quiet. I chose these answers because I know that I like to think a lot to myself and am more observant of others around me than I am of myself. Since I am rather quiet, I haven’t really practiced my communication skills as much as I’d like and thus why I am not very tactful. On a more positive note, I do see myself as extremely imaginative and friendly. I chose to rank myself high on these two because I always try to treat others the way I would want to be treated and was always told that I was extremely curious, imaginative, and artistic as a child. I believe I still am. It is so interesting to read the different perceptions that my friends and husband see of me. For example, my husband had very similar results to mine because he lives with me and sees me everyday. He has known me for ten years now and it is reassuring that he knows me so well. The only thing that we both seem to entirely disagree on is how imaginative I am. He believes that I am only slightly as I think that I am extremely. I believe this is because my husband is a big talker and he likes to verbally express his ideas where I would rather put them down on paper. As for my two friends opinions, they are slightly different. The two of my friends are actually a couple who lives together. The one I have know for ten years, where as the other I’ve only know for two. Both seem to agree that I am not at all selfish but also extremely considerate of others. This makes me feel good, as I have stated previously that I always try to treat people with the utmost respect that I would want from others. My friends and spouse’s view of strengths and weaknesses seem to be reasonably the same. Two out of the three

    Clients sometimes have difficulty discussing their strengths and weaknesses. I can begin to identify John’s strengths/weaknesses by examining his feelings, ability of knowledge and skills, and actual performance. Some questions I can ask are: “what are your hopes/dreams?”, “what are you passionate about?”, “what do you do well?”, “do you adapt to change quickly?”, “what do other people look to you for?”, “what would you consider are your strengths and weaknesses?”, and “what can you do to…

    When most people look at me, they don’t always see me. They see a girl. They see a quiet girl who is a big reader. They see a girl who is a hard worker and does well in school. They see the sister of three younger brothers. It’s true. I’m all of these things. I am also much, much more. I am mature in certain matters, and childish in others. I change my personality according to my surroundings, and do not show the world the real me. There are even some things that my family does not know about the real me.…

    It is common for a person to have strengths they show off and are proud of, as well as weaknesses that probably would not receive as much exposure. Should a person have an equal amount of strengths and weaknesses, or is it common for one to have more of one than the other? Is it possible for strengths to be weakened, or the other way around? The April 19, 1925 Minneapolis Sunday Tribune review of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, referring to the classic tale as an “ironical panorama of the weakness of the strong and the strength of the weak,” understandably communicates the incongruous factors of strength and weakness of the characters Tom Buchanan, when dealing with his affair, Nick Carraway and his sense of judgment, as well as Jay Gatsby and his sense of hope.…

    I am very outgoing and sometimes consider myself to be very talkative, even when people tell me to be quiet I cannot help it. That is just the type of person I am. I like to be heard even if I am the only person listening to myself my brain is always running and developing new thoughts and ideas to discuss with other people. Whenever I am with my friends they are constantly telling me to be quiet because I never stop talking I just do not like it to be quiet. I feel that I am the life of the party I also do this at work with my co-workers I just like to talk I feel I have a mouth to express myself and be heard. Openness to experience I feel is another that describes me well because along with always thinking and talking I an very curious to know a little about everything. I feel that I can learn about different things forever, and that I can always learn how to do something I already know a different more efficient way. Curiosity never hurt anyone I believe the world is full of many mysteries and we must unlock and discover them to learn what they are. I also find myself building thing without the instructions not because I do not need them, but because I am curious to see if I can create what I am building without them. Even if I do not know something on a subject I will sometimes act as if I do because I want to see how gullible people are, and I also know many facts about everything so it is easy to believe me. Using agreeableness I would consider myself to be ruthless and soft-hearted why, because I tend to be easygoing and am kind to people I know, but if I do not know you I am not going to be nice to you. Do not get me wrong though even with people I know I can turn on if they give me a good cause to snap on them. People who hitch for rides I…

    I would place myself in the category of Advanced Thinker. I say this because I tend to over analyze everything. I think about things way too much sometimes, and I like to think about things from different perspectives. I like to think of myself as the creative type, and in order to be creative I have to think outside of the box.
