Are your strengths working for you, or against you?

Strengths are traits that empower us to improve, do better, and become the best version of ourselves. The question is, are strengths immovable? Meaning do they stay strengths - and therefore positive - forever? Socrates (the renowned Greek philosopher) used to say that a life that is not regularly examined is not worth living. And so before you consider any trait as your strength, it is advisable to examine and re-examine it to ensure that the trait is working for you and not against you because any "strength" that impedes your self-growth is a weakness, no longer your strength.
