Personal Strengths and Weaknesses

Through the years I have learned that my experiences are what carry me through life. Through these experiences I have developed strengths and weaknesses.

Let me start by naming my strengths and abilities. Anticipate Tasks, Problem Solving, Vigilant while Sleeping, Resolving Conflicts, Open Minded, Decision Making, Follow and Lead, Work Under Pressure, Team Player, and Handle Multiple Tasks.

My weaknesses are procrastinating, not listening well, contradicting myself, Selective Hearing, and settling for the minimum.

I tend to know what will happen next when my children are at playing and are doing things they are not suppose to.
