My Strengths and Weaknesses

Is it important to know our strengths and weaknesses? All people have special qualities about themselves that give them their individuality. These qualities can be divided into a specific characters called strengths and weaknesses. To grow as people, we must identify our strengths to help us overcome our weaknesses. These are about my personal strengths and weaknesses and how I plan to overcome my weaknesses in my personal life.

First, I will explain about my strengths. Being responsible with my duty is the best strength that I have. I never neglect the duty which is given to me, whether it’s about the assignment that is given by my lecturer, the duty that I got in the organization, etc. Meanwhile, I always be careful when I do something. Beside that, I’m good in managing money. When my parents gave me much money, I’ll list my requirement in order to make sure that I won’t spend my money to buy something useless. Those are the explanation of my strength which I have.

Second, I will explain about my weaknesses. Often forgetting something (being senile) is one of my weakness. I often forget about my course schedule. It often gives me a trouble when I arranged my other’s schedule. Beside that, I’m lack of confidence when I perform in front of many people like when I do the presentation in front of the class. I always think that I can’t be better than the other people. It makes me down sometimes. Beside that, I am also being hard to mingle with a new people because I’m shy and I’m not an easy going person. Those are the explanation of my weaknesses that I have.

Third, these are the ways which I have planned to overcome my weaknesses. I will make a personal note to remind me about an important thing, for example, my course schedule. I will prepare my self as well as I can before I did the presentation in front of the class. It is for increasing my confidence when I perform the presentation in front of the class. Beside that, I’ll try to think positive about my self. Moreover, I will try to adapt with a new people and try to be an easy going person although it is still hard for me to release that. Those are the simple ways which I have planned in order to overcome my weaknesses.

In conclusion, I have mentioned 3 things about my strengths, weaknesses, and the way to overcome my weaknesses. The strengths which I have, are : being responsible with my duty, being good in managing money, and being careful when I do something. Moreover, I still have some weaknesses in myself such as : often forgetting something easily ( being senile ), being hard to mingle with a new people, and being lack of confidence. Therefore, I have planned some simple ways to overcome my weaknesses, such as : making a personal note to remind me about my schedule or another important thing, trying to do the best as I can in order to increase my confidence when I do the presentation trying to adapt with new people and still try to be an easy going person.
