Out of the five strengths mentioned, which do you think are most prominent?

After completing my assment my top five strengths are Responsibility, Competition, Achiever, Developer, and Positivity. However, I feel the most prominent one would be responsibility. I chose responsibility because I have always been responsible in my life and in the workplace. If something needed to be completed it was taken care of and no one had to worry about it. Many employers look for this employee and trust them with their company. Now it is a hard find in many people and it is sad to say.
For each strength, can you describe a way or a time that you see or have seen yourself operating out of that strength?

I have completed that goal of my life, but now it is time to move forward to the next chapter of my life after completion of school. Developer, I like to make things happen that I set my mind to. When I opened my business fourteen years ago I loved it, but within five years I wanted a second location. I began to plan and figure out what I needed to do to make that happen and within one year I open a second location. It has been successful and growing since that time I have been very blessed. Positivity, this has been something that I have had from childhood. I have always been positive regarding things and events around me.
