19. What is
self-
assessment?

20. Self Assessment
is not a test
• It is a way to learn about yourself by
gathering data that includes information
about your work-related values, interests,
personality type and aptitudes

21. Is it important
that you assess
you self?

22. How much do
you know
yourself?

23. LET’S DO THIS
MY + AND -

24. On a piece of paper
what do you think
are your
STRENGTHS and
WEAKNESSES?

25. STRENGTH
It is a personal asset to you as
a product and can be used as a
way to differentiate you from
others.
Strong project management skills,
communication skills, ability to improve
processes, ability to present on a large
audience.

26. WEAKNESS
It is a personal liability or an
area of opportunity for
growth. These are
characteristics you could
improve
Disorganized, uncomfortable speaking in
front of groups, tendency to procrastinate,
passive, poor listener

27. STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES
According to eudaimonia (medium.com)
WHAT TRUE STRENGTH REALLY IS AND WHERE IT
COMES FROM
“Strength isn’t the absence of weakness. Strength and
weakness are one. There can’t be one without the other.
Weakness is just the mirror image of strength, and voce versa.
The can’t be separated.”

28. There will always be
a room for growth.
No one can be
perfect.

29. GREAT INSIGHTS
ABOUT
TRUE STRENGTH
True strength is
AWARENESS
True strength is never
dividing one’s self up into
weak and strong to begin
with. Always, when we
divide ourselves, the do
fear and anxiety arise.
We will always think we are only weak this way
because we can never really get “rid” of our
weaknesses at all
“true strength is knowing, experiencing the truth, that in our fragility
lies our possibilities and therefore we must accept not just our
strength but also our weaknesses”

30. GREAT INSIGHTS
ABOUT
TRUE STRENGTH
True strength is
COMPASSION
We look at every person
differently. With true
compassion. The
weaknesses we despise
in others also contain
strengths, and the
strengths we so admire
also hold weaknesses
Now we do not simply have to despise the weak and
admire the strong. We can have compassion for every
single being, including ourselves.
“We have more sophisticated way of seeing people now, through the truth of them. There is no us and them,
no separation. No matter how different they may appear to be, we are all walking the same path home.”

31. GREAT INSIGHTS
ABOUT
TRUE STRENGTH
True strength is
PERSPECTIVE
We must learn to know
ourselves as
contradictions.
Sometimes we are weak,
sometimes we are
strong. And that is how it
should be.
Is the river weak or strong, when the water flows
around the rocks? Is the tree weak or strong when it
bends in the wind? –Lao Tzu called all this actionless
action. The idea that the truly mighty thing are weak
AND strong not weak OR strong.
“We need not to be not weak or strong to be mighty, but weak and strong be mighty
which what true strength is.”

32. Therefore your are the
mightiest thing in all
creation. All of being is in
you. Weak and strong.
That is all true strength
really is.
-UMAIR (2016)

33. Even if you could provide a
rundown of every one of your
characteristics, there's a good
chance you don't know how to
use that information to help you
find a career that is a good fit.

34. The anatomy of
self-assessment

35. Work-
related
values
Interests
Personality
type
Aptitudes
All of these
characteristics make up
who you are, so ignoring
any of them won't give
you an accurate answer.
Let's take a look at each
one.

36. Your values are the ideas and beliefs
that are important to you. Your
work-related values can include
autonomy, prestige, security,
interpersonal relationships, helping
others, flexible work schedule,
outdoor work, leisure time, and
high salary.
If you take these things into
account when choosing a
career, you have a better
chance of achieving job
satisfaction.
Work-
related
values

37. Your likes and dislikes regarding
various activities make up your
interests. E.K. Strong and other
psychologists discovered many
years ago that people who share
similar interests also enjoy the same
type of work
Based on this theory he developed what is
now called the Strong Interest Inventory, an
assessment many career development
experts use to assist their clients with career
planning. Take Control of Your Career
Interests

38. Knowing what your type is can help
you choose an occupation because
particular personality types are
better suited to certain careers, as
well as work environments, than
are others.
Your personality type is
made up of your social traits,
motivational drives, needs,
and attitudes
Personality
type

39. It is important to keep in mind that having
an aptitude for something, doesn't mean
you will necessarily like doing it. Or you
may enjoy doing it, but not for work. That
is something to keep in mind when you
choose a career.
Aptitude refers to an individual's natural
talent, learned the ability, or capacity to
acquire a skill. Examples include math,
science, visual art, music, verbal or written
communication, reading comprehension,
logic and reasoning, manual dexterity,
mechanics, or spatial relations. You may
have multiple aptitudes.
Aptitudes

41. LET’S DO THIS

MISSION STATEMENT

42. Formulate a MISSION STATEMENT
• IT IS MY MISSION TO…

46. IF YOU CAN
THINK OF IT, YOU
CAN DO IT
