The explanation provided assisted me with understanding why I each strength was identified. For example, I was uncertain about my result restorative, by going into greater detail on this result, I was able to understand the concept better. After reviewing “Your Personalized Strengths Insight” (Gallup, n.d.,) section, I do believe restorative can be a personal strength for me. My personal results explained the reason I received the theme restorative for my strength stating, “You are motivated when your results are compared to those of others.

I am solid in those aspects, but thought that it overestimated my capabilities
