STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES - SELF UNDERSTANDING
“Every plant has its own tenderness at its shoot and thick rigidness at its root.”
In today's competitive world, Intelligence Quotient (I.Q.) is one of the important factors expected from everyone. But, in reality, one's intelligence becomes their best friend and worst enemy too. Not only the personal emotions inside us but also the general situations out there give us strength and weakness as well.
Being patient can act as an advantage, for those persons who are short-tempered, to deal with the people or situation peacefully.On the contrary, it can be a huge disadvantage for those, who is being patient forever and for everything. It can be said that strengths and weaknesses are subjective, it differs from person to person and situation to situation.
Does strength become a positive sign for success and weakness vice versa? Of course, not. Sometimes finding weakness at the right time and handling it wisely becomes the biggest strength. Then arising a question, what is strength and weakness and how to find out it?
Let us discuss a scenario, to make it much clear. We all might have, well known about Cadbury's Diary Milk. And why not? We all have tasted it at least once and some of our friends are easily convinced by us by offering them Cadbury's Diary Milk Silk. But, how many of us know the interesting fact about it.
Once, the targeted units of Diary Milk Chocolates were manufactured in the factory. Unfortunately, all the production was found defective. Due to some technical issue, the temperature was not maintained properly and all the chocolate bars found melted. It threatened the industry. But the CEO of the company made the situation favourable to them. They marketed such chocolates with a new brand name 'Silk' and it has been trending since now
In the above case, the disadvantage was turned into advantage at the right time, which became the strength of the said company. Then, as you know that the customers demand for Diary Milk Silk have never streaked down.
Well, thus we can conclude that, a perfect blend of sugar's sweet and coffee's bitterness make the coffee tastes good. Therefore, our strengths and weaknesses are our own signature, which moulds us to deal with ourselves and the society as a wide.
