Will you focus on Your Strengths in 2009?

The first question you may want to ask yourself is; “How do I really determine my strengths?

I’ve certainly asked this question of myself a number of times. Over the course of our lives we get more proficient at many aspects of our lives, but we need to continually ask this question. Given the pace of life, I’m always looking for simple, easy ways to personally and professionally develop toward my goals.

A good friend of mine who is an expert in assessment technologies that serve business owners referred a very cool book to me and I bought it in a heartbeat. It’s small, 1/2 size book written by #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Tom Rath. It’s called Strengths Finder 2.0.

The focus of the book is divided in two parts; Finding Your Strengths and Applying Your Strengths. As you go through it, you actually get a personalized, web-based assessment that you can use to guide your plan for this year and your life. It’s probably the best $25 I’ve spent with Amazon.com in a long time.

Strengths Finder 2.0 includes:

• Complete Strengths Finder Assessment 2.0
• Strengths Discovery and Action – Planning Guide
• 50 Ideas for Action

I read the book in a single evening. I highly recommend it. Enjoy.

Cheers,
Steve
