i have a very salient personal strength...im really good at convincing people to take action. im not saying i can convince anyone of anything, but i have a very provocative way of talking about things i like and convincing people to give what i like a try to see if it fits their needs. ive probably wracked up thousands of dollars worth of sales for moleskin. i know im the reason that about 30 people actually joined or went abroad through aiesec over the past 3 years and at least 200 people went to info sessions about it. i know about 8 people who over the past year got up the courage and did something they normally wouldnt do (dropped 700 bucks on a ticket to argentina, applied for that internship they are barely qualified for and got it, told that boy/girl the truth about their feelings, chose cornell over other colleges) because of something i said to them (i couldnt even tell you what i said, but obviously it pushed a button).
now that i can identify this strength, its time to use to my personal benefit. the next few months im going to try and figure that out...
