Your strengths are the talents and abilities you currently have, or talents and abilities you may develop.
We often do not recognize our strengths because we take them for granted. Instead, we tend to focus on those abilities that others have and wish we had them. Strengths develop out of adversity. You have strengths. Among them are things you do to get through the adversities in your life.
