Description of my strengths
One of my strength is the quality of connectedness, whereby I have enough presence of mind to consider myself as a part of a larger community. This makes my dealing with the people a little more cautious, considerate, caring and accepting them the way they are irrespective of their background. I have the capability of creating a peaceful coexistence between any rival groups, giving them comfort and building their confidence beyond their belief.
My strength on being a developer enables me to recognize potential in others. It makes it possible for me to work with groups of individuals and mentor their lives to the full realization of their potential. As a nurse, this quality helps me give my full services to patients since my desire is to see them overcome their present conditions. My key focus is to enable those around me experience success, whereby, I prescribe interesting ways that can challenge them and help them grow. This makes several people to seek my advice and encouragement since they find it my counsel both satisfying and fulfilling.
My adaptability nature enables me to quickly adapt to current changes within any environment. It is therefore, in my strength to respond vividly to the demands of the moment. This makes it easier for me to work within the emergency section of any hospital. This character trait reinforces my nature of being flexible and capable of staying productive amidst pressure within the work environment.

Reflection on my strengths, giving specific examples from my personal and/or professional lives
The strength of being a developer has ensured that I make some self-sacrifices for the sake of serving others. This makes it possible the devotion of my services and abilities towards the welfare as well as interest of others. For instance, in the hospital environment, I tend to work extra hours since I find fulfillment in ensuring that patients are satisfied the hospital services.
