Figuring out your Gifts worksheet



Answer these 10 questions honestly. Don't overthink—go with your first instinct.

1. The "Energy" Test

What is the one activity that, after you do it, you feel more energized than when you started? (Even if it was hard work.)

2. The "Compliment" Archive

Think back to the last three times someone said, "I don't know how you do that." What were you doing?

3. The "Default" Role

When you are in a group of friends and a problem arises, what is your automatic role? (e.g., The Peacekeeper, The Researcher, The Comedian, The Map-Reader, The Hype-Person.)

4. The "Boredom" Threshold

What is a topic or skill that you can talk/read about for hours without getting bored, even when everyone else has tuned out?

5. The "Childhood" Clue

When you were 10 years old and had a free Saturday with no chores or homework, how did you spend your time? (The "pure" self usually shows up early.)

6. The "Teaching" Moment

If you had to teach a 5-minute Masterclass on anything right now with zero preparation, what would the subject be?

7. The "Frustration" Indicator

What is something that people do "wrong" or "slowly" that secretly frustrates you because it seems so simple to you? (Your frustration often points to your natural proficiency.)

8. The "Budget" Question

If you were given $1,000 but you had to spend it on a hobby, a tool, or a class, what would you buy?

9. The "Flow" State

When was the last time you "lost time" because you were so deep in a task? What was the specific action you were performing?

10. The "Reliability" Factor

What is the one thing your friends always count on you for? (Not just favors, but qualities—like "honesty," "calmness," or "creativity.")
