It was about 3 years ago when I was first introduced book called Strengths Finders 2.0.  This was a short book that came with a test that each reader was suppose to take.  Through the way you answered the multiple questions, the end would reveal a list of 5 top strengths that the test taker would receive.  These strengths are something that helped put language to certain things that I already knew was inside of me.  You see for most of my life I only focused on certain aspects of my life that I wasn't good at and spent most of my time trying to fix those negatives.  For some reason I failed to take the things that I excelled in and allowed them to go to waste.  Since then I have changed the way I allow my strengths to play out in my life.  I no longer choose to put those strengths on the back burner and focus on my weaknesses, rather I choose to focus on those strengths which ultimately has been a lot more gratifying.  You see, when you act out of the purpose in which you were created, you feel a sense of excitement and become alive inside.  This is something that I believe is missing in most humans.  They are too busy living out the things in which they were not created to do and become stagnant in life and their souls are left unsatisfied.  Now this book does not help you find your main purpose in life and explain why you were created, but it will help you discover some of the strengths that dwell inside of you and help you to magnify those strengths.  When this takes place, I almost guarantee that will start to feel more alive than you ever had when you are able to exercise these natural strengths that dwell within you!  So if you are aspiring to be a great leader or are in charge of a team of some sorts, check out the book and take the Strengths Finders test and discover what's been inside of you all along!  Check out www.strengthfinders.com to learn more what this is all about.

Below are my top 5 strengths in no specific order.

Ideation
People strong in the Ideation theme are fascinated by ideas. They are able to find connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.
