Let’s remember that it is when we face a challenge that our resilience is truly tested. Now is when we must recognize our strengths. When we actively do this, we give ourselves better chances at positive outcomes. As a result, we feel happier, fulfilled and find ourselves able to cope better with stress.
When we use our strengths, we feel more energetic, less stressed, and more confident. We engage better, learn faster and reach our goals sooner.
How to use our strengths?

- Look for ways to build on your strengths rather than dwell on your shortcomings.
- Sometimes it is alright if things did not go as planned. Celebrate what went well.
- Even if your big goal looks far away and difficult, remember that…
