My signature strengths came out as appreciation of beauty and excellence, capacity to love and be loved, curiosity and interest in the world, bravery and valor, and creativity, ingenuity, and originality. I was surprised that capacity to love and be loved and bravery and valor were in my top five strengths because I often have difficulty building relationships in my life to the point of love and I'm not usually brave enough to take many chances. I have learned from this test that I actually am not authentic in my actions the majority of the time. I find myself pretending to be friends with people that drive me insane or purposely not sharing my opinion because I know the people I am with don't agree. I see a lack of authenticity particularly in my style, when trying to decide what to wear in the morning instead of thinking what do I want to wear, I think what would this or that person wear, or what is in style? I was shocked to uncover this about myself because I thought that I have been true to myself but I have started to realize that that isn't always true. While I openly express my opinions about things I find beautiful or fantastic and I am very curious about things around me, my actions always don't match up to my other "strengths". I have already explained the contradiction between my personality and actions and my capacity to love and be loved as well as my bravery and valor. I also find that while creativity, ingenuity, and originality was one of my top five strengths I often have a difficult time coming up with truly original or ideas. I find the difference in the results of the strength test and my personality to be puzzling.
