My Clifton strengths

Achiever

I thrive on identifying problems and making the needed repairs or implementing appropriate solutions. I work diligently and ignore all kinds of distractions. Reaching your goals spurs you to toil with even greater purpose.

Activator

"When can we start?" This is a recurring question in my life. In my view, action and thinking are not opposites. I believe that action is the best device for learning. I make a decision, I take action, I look at the result, and I learn.

Maximizer

Excellence, not average, is my measure. I reach my goals, excel, and gain confidence when I am permitted to do things that I do quite well.

Futuristic

"Wouldn't it be great if..." I am the kind of person who loves to peer over the horizon. The future fascinates me.

Positivity

Generous with praise, quick to smile, and always on the lookout for the positive in the situation. Finding the good in human beings delight me.
