How to help your child find their strengths most accurately

Báo Dân tríBáo Dân trí23/12/2024

(Dan Tri) - American psychologist Adam Grant said the way to find out your strengths is to... ask other people.


According to expert Grant, each person can ask 15 to 20 people who regularly come into contact with them, such as family members, friends, teachers... to hear their comments about the most beautiful image of themselves that leaves an impression on those around them.

From these stories, we can read the most common themes and details in the shares. Ultimately, each individual will build the most impressive image of themselves through the perspective of those around them.

Psychologist Adam Grant teaches at the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. Grant often asks his students to see themselves through the eyes of others.

"This is one of the exercises that I really like to give to students. The interesting thing is that when collecting feedback from people around them, students themselves cannot imagine their own strengths through the perspective of others. In fact, there are strengths in ourselves that we ourselves do not realize," said Mr. Grant.

Understanding our strengths can help us get through difficult times more easily.

For example, a businessman is very diplomatic and always has the ability to master conversations, but once, he felt confused because he suddenly had to enter an important conversation without any prior preparation.

If the businessman knows that his strength is the charm and elegance, he can go through the meeting more effectively. He will know how to take advantage of his strengths in an awkward situation.

Mr. Grant said he also collected opinions from people around him and learned that many people were impressed by his sharp memory. This made him realize his strengths and actively remember useful information around him.

For example, when he first started teaching an MBA program, he was nervous about connecting with his students. He quickly learned their names and surprised them.

"My ability to quickly and accurately remember students' names changes the level of openness in my interactions with them. I wouldn't have realized I had such an impressively sharp memory if I hadn't asked people around me about my strengths.

Once I knew about this strength, I immediately sought to take advantage of it to create an advantage for myself in the process of interacting with colleagues and students," said Mr. Grant.
