TWENTY-THREE QUESTIONS  TO FIND YOUR SMARTS

There are only 23 questions in this quiz but they are specific and I hope the information you get will be extremely helpful.

The quiz will draw up to your mind what you might have forgotten (or never thought about) from your childhood with regard to interests, talents, gifts and smarts!

You will immediately see that other kinds of questions will present themselves to you to remind you of other gifts you might have missed or not followed up on.

I can help you with that later.

Be specific in all your answers.

We’ll start at the beginning, in childhood.

We’ll take sports and the arts to start the process.

(There are many other ways we could use to discover your ways of being smart—this is just a couple of topic examples to get you started.)

BONUS QUESTIONS:

Here are three more questions to discover your strengths and smarts.

Different ways of remembering strengths from your childhood.

21. What things did you do when you were young that you seemed to do better than most people?

22. What things did you do that people remarked on, saying you were good at such and such a thing? Better than most kids or anybody else?

23. What things did you do that came easily to you? You didn’t have to work at them (other kids did). Although when you did work at them or practiced them you were even better at them!

When you answer these questions you should have a different—better—view of yourself regarding the things you were good at (instead of the just the things you feel you are not good at).
