Integrations
We all have a unique set of strengths that impact how we think, feel, and behave. Scientists have codified these traits into 24 character strengths. To discover your distinctive strengths profile, take the VIA Character Survey and look at your top 10 results. Then choose 5-7 strengths that you consider the most important to who you are. These are your “signature strengths.” These strengths constitute core parts of you as an individual and are expressed across all domains in your life.
Your Integration for the week is to use these signature strengths in new ways. You can focus on one each day, or the same one all week. Research has shown that using your signature strengths in new ways boosts happiness and lowers depression. In addition, aligning your strengths with your job and life tasks can deepen your sense of meaning and fulfillment.
