How to Use the Strength Cards
3. Gather the views of people you trust
Show the cards to different people you trust. Ask them to pick out which
cards they feel are your strengths.
Ask the person to give examples of when they have seen or heard you show
these strengths – this is important – it gives evidence so that your brain believes it.
Ask them to write the examples on post-its and add to the pages of your Strengths Journal.
4. Strength Goals: Extend Your Strengths
Look through the cards and choose two or three that are not your strengths
yet but you want them to be.
Put these somewhere you will look at every day. At the start of the day, think
through some ways you could practise these strengths.
Just keeping them higher in your consciousness will help.
Ask a trusted adult to help you create a plan of other actions which will help you improve
your Strength Goals
