All the Happy staff have completed a Gallup's Strengths Finder quiz which aims to discover our five top strengths. These strengths are meant to be the things we should maximise to become truly effective people, rather than wasting time focusing on our, ahem, lesser talents, and never even reaching above mediocre in those.
So, if your tea making skills are weak - don't worry. Just get on with being a fantastic bed maker, if that's more your thing, and you'll enjoy much more success. Sadly tea and bed making skills aren't really on the official list. The real ones include new and bizarre concepts such as: intellection, maximiser, ideation and woo. Which one are you?
Once you know your skills, how does it help you? It could mean you'll get on better with others of a similar ilk. Bossy boots unite! Opposites can also attract and complement each other. Effective working relationships will always develop through a better awareness of others' strengths.
On a personal development level, the radical message is concentrate on what you're good at. Tea, anyone?
