Lets be proactive
I have a question. It's a fairly important question, so if you think you have an answer, no matter how far outside the box it may lie, please respond anyway. Please try and be honest. I think anon posting is allowed on my LJ and I don't log IP addresses so go crazy.
What am I good at?
I'm compiling a list of things that I'm good at, and once it's complete I'm going to see if any patterns form or any inspiration hits with regard to something that might one day be a career.
I have, however, managed to stall at the first hurdle, by not having any fucking idea what I'm good at, so I figured asking people that know me would be a good place to start. It's certainly not going to be the end of my research, but everything has to start somewhere.
Additionally: Another question, equally important and possibly more useful (thank you erfalaswen for bringing to my attention!)
What are my weaknesses?
I realise that some people may not be entirely comfortable with sharing their opinions on this publicly, or particularly comfortable with sharing them with me at all. If you are one of these people, it's probably *more* important that I hear your input, so please don't hold back. I promise I won't bite. If you're still hesitant, I've just changed the permissions on this post so Anonymous comments will be screened automatically, so if you don't want me to know who you are, or don't want anybody else to read it, make your reply Anonymous, and within your reply please indicate if you would object to it being made public.
