Are you hiding in plain sight?

April 3, 2012 by Elizabeth H. Cottrell

Reference Feb. 7 article

Eliz: take StrengthFinders test and ask J, J, and S what they think of results.

Jane Pauley article in AARP 2010 “Meet a New You”
“Sometimes the things that give the most pleasure, meaning, and purpose to our lives are obvious to everyone but us. So if you’re wondering where you go from here, a little reintroduction may help you see that your hidden self was in plain sight all along.

Other ways to identify your strengths:
“List every major accomplishment in your life,” says Howard Stone, coauthor of Too Young to Retire. Look for intersections and threads of commonality.

Test the waters to see if your observations and conclusions are correct. Take field trips or volunteer in areas of your strength and see if you enjoy it as much as you thought.

Prioritize your time commitments to align with your discoveries.

What am I (Elizabeth) doing along this line?
