Have you ever been asked, perhaps by an employer or a teacher, “What are your strengths?” and felt your mind go completely blank?
Join the club. As a student, figuring out what you’re good at feels a lot like trying to solve a huge, complicated puzzle. You know you have skills, but pinning them down and actually naming them can be tough.
It’s often much easier to think about what you do, like playing soccer or acing a math test, than it is to define the underlying talents that make those things possible.
