Strength and aptitude are different things. Strength is a force that a person has which can withstand through all the odds wheres aptitude is a quotient a special skill set that a person posses e.g.: numerical ability, spatial ability, verbal ability etc.
Often the person's aptitude can become a person's strength. I have strength of being courageous, of withstanding through all the odds, the courage is the strength that I have which helps me in standing still in case of tough situations. I do not budge in any case, I do not go back. I prefer fight response over to flight response. I believe that by being courageous one can excel through all the tough times and achieves what he wants. Eg: during exams, there was lot of portion like other students I may have studied just to attain mere 60% but I decided to study the whole and hence I studied the all the book and got the very good marks.This ability also continue at work place, there was enormous amount of work but I was not afraid, I continued with the work and got more projects.
I have aptitude of understanding, I use all my force of conscience in order to understand people or situations around me. I know well how to handle people around or the situation in front. I use my creative forces and the verbal ability to calm down people or to help them in their tough situations. My friends often came to me for the solution because they had problems, sharing with me would help them understanding the whole point. I like to read, reading is my hobby which helps in honing these skills
