Your Primary was ‘The Lion’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Beaver’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

Lion- This personality likes to lead. The lion is good at making decisions and is very goal-oriented. They enjoy challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for advancement. Because lions are thinking of the goal, they can step on people to reach it. Lions can be very aggressive and competitive. Lions must learn not to be too bossy or to take charge in other’s affairs.

Strength: Goal-oriented, strong, direct
Weakness: Argumentative, too dictatorial
Limitation: Doesn’t understand that directness can hurt others, hard time expressing grace

Beaver- Organized. Beavers think that there is a right way to do everything and they want to do it exactly that way. Beaver personalities are very creative. They desire to solve everything. Desire to take their time and do it right. Beavers do not like sudden changes. They need reassurance.

Strength: High standards, order, respect
Weakness: Unrealistic expectations of self & others, too perfect.
Limitation: Seeing the optimistic side of things, expressing flexibility

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Felt a season of emptiness. That there is surely more to living. Got invited to a church programme. The preacher made a compelling argument about finding true meaning only in Christ. I gave my life that day.

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

Choir – global harvest church, Ago – Iwoye ( member and head)
Also in RCCG CARDIFF, PORTSMOUTH

Protocol – HTH

Drama UNIT – HTH

List 3 Positive experiences from the past that made a big impact on who you are today:

The sense of family I had with my Choir group in UNI… There I developed some godly characters

Experience of study and work abroad. It expanded my perspective and broaden my outlook. Being able to better understand different cultures and gaining insights into how others do things

The support and encouragement of two senior colleagues when I joined my current workplace helped develop my skills and confidence.

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

Being lied upon at a young age and feeling of helplessness and injustice of it all by having no support from my mum on the issue. Having no one to talk to. I never want to see anyone feeling helpless and want to be an ear and source of comfort to those who feel this way

Not being able to express my self freely in my family. you always have to bottle things up, risk being disciplined if you said something. There were no explanations… You simply figure it out yourself and if you get it wrong, you are in trouble. I couldn’t trust my thoughts, lost confidence in myself. This makes me want to create an environment where youth especially found a way to express, had good examples/ role models to follow, had guidance to making decision, got explanations of at least have a support system as they try to figure things out. So that they can be the best they can be

Bad customer service experiences. Increased my resolve to always strive for efficiency and effectiveness when serving others

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

  • Your Kids Second
  • Everyone Else After those

3. Travelling around the world on mission trips ( using my administrative skills)

4. Own a media company – producing quality movies (entertainment)

5. Creating beautiful clothes, decors, gardens , ambience that will be a blessing/ inspiration instead of sedice/ distract
