In your "Resonant Leader" workbook, at the end of Chapter 5, is a Personal Balance Sheet. This is an exercise to support you to assess your personal assets and liabilities. Promoting assets and limiting liabilities can help you to achieve your hopes and dreams. Complete the personal balance sheet exercise, and create a reflection blog that summarizes your assets and liabilities. Use the outputs from the exercises that you have completed in the course workbook and your reflections of those assessments as your guide.  In the blog, discuss your assets: My distinctive strengths (things I know I do well and strengths that others see in me). My potential strengths (things I could do better or more often if I focused or things I do well in some situations and could begin to apply more broadly). My enduring dispositions that support me (traits, habits, behaviors that I do not want to change and that help me to be successful). Discuss your liabilities: My weaknesses (things I know I d...
