Take the VIA Character Strength Test, Trust Me It's About You

How many trait characteristics traits do you know about yourself? I find that figuring out who am I as a person and why I am such a creative geek and a people person is a must learning experience that I need to discover my personal self a psychological understanding.

Finding the traits that you can work on a daily basis to evolve who you are is a key essential to your daily living for being you. Knowing who am I as a person from taking the VIA test opened up myself to what I am capable of the world, and what I need to work on for myself. I highly recommend for everyone to take the VIA Character Strength Test to determine the top ten qualities that makeup who they are as a character. The VIA test gives you twenty-five characteristics, ten being your greatest assets to you and the last fifteen character traits that apply to you only by a trickle. I took this test back in February to really dive deep on my personality. The top five that was brought up was creativity being my first, humor, kindness, social intelligence, and hope. Throughout each listing of a character, trait had my brain shook because it really framed my personality as a person.

The reason why I suggest this test to you because it creates a defining psychology analysis of you. These traits are what you present to others on a daily base. It can help determine what you are lacking in yourself and you can figure out ways to better yourself. Plus, you can build off of traits to seek more mind-fullness in your daily life. After taking the test that only takes a couple of minutes of your day, writes down an affirmation to you on those traits and reflects on how you use them day after day to improve as a person.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
