"How do you think knowing your strengths can help you when things feel tough or challenging?"

"Sometimes, we focus on what we can't do. How can we shift our focus to what we can do, especially thinking about our strengths?"

"How do you think others see your strengths? Do you think they notice the same things you do?"
