Strengths-Learner

The final strength I'll highlight here is LEARNER.  It's the strength that popped up in the last test of Strengths Finder.
I'm not surprised since I love to read and learn.  It's been the way that I've kept up with technology and trends.   I read these periodicals:
I'm most happy when I have a couple of books working in my head and I try to sythesize the material into my life. 

Learner
  • You love to learn. The subject matter that interests you most will be determined by your other themes and experiences, but whatever the subject, you will always be drawn to the process of learning. 
  • The process, more than the content or the result, is especially exciting for you. 
  • You are energized by the steady and deliberate journey from ignorance to competence.
  • The thrill of the first few facts, the early efforts to recite or practice 
  • What you have learned, the growing confidence of a skill mastered — this is the process that entices you. 
  • Your excitement leads you to engage in adult learning experiences — yoga or piano lessons or graduate classes. It enables you to thrive in dynamic work environments where you are asked to take on short project assignments and are expected to learn a lot about the new subject matter in a short period of time and then move on to the next one. 
  • This Learner theme does not necessarily mean that you seek to become the subject matter expert, or that you are striving for the respect that accompanies a professional or academic credential. 
  • The outcome of the learning is less significant than the “getting there.” 
So, are you a learner?
