This is the last in the series regarding my strengths as indicated by Tom Rath’s Strengths Finder 2.0 assessment tool.
People who are especially talented in the Belief theme have certain core values that are unchanging. Out of these values emerges a defined purpose for their life.
I believe that my faith in God and the principles that are taught through His Word are the reason that this strength appears in the Top 5. However, I know of mature believers who do not have this rank in their Top 5 and therefore believe it would be a mistake to think my faith is the only determining factor in this strength.
Recently the phrase has been crossing my mind: “The right thing is rarely the easy thing.” Over the last few years, I’ve set aside times to spend evaluating what drives me. As a result, I have more consciously focused on making decisions that are values-driven more than anything else. Whether it is in the workplace, home life or personal journey, making values-driven decisions has not made life easier, but it has definitely made life more satisfying and fulfilling.
