Identifying our strengths can give us an instant confidence boost because it reminds ourselves of things we can do that are really great. But sometimes when we don’t notice our strengths right away, we assume that we don’t have any, or worse, downplay the ones we do have. A common exercise to find our strengths includes making a list of everything that we are good at. Review this list several times and remember a time when you had to use each attribute. Keep this list nearby to always remind yourself of them and remain confident.

Tips for finding strengths:

• Analyze how you handle situations
• Determine what your desires are and how you go after them
• Examine the ways you solve problems
