In this video, Tim discusses how the Clifton Strengths 34 framework has positively impacted his life. Before discovering the framework, he felt that something was missing from his life and career, despite having a good job, good pay, and a great reputation.

This dissatisfaction led him to move and start his own business, but he found that the feeling of unease returned. A friend introduced him to the Clifton Strengths 34 framework, which he initially did not take seriously.

However, after meeting with a strengths coach, he began to truly understand himself. He realized that his feelings of frustration stemmed from either trying to use strengths that were not his own or not allowing his true strengths to be used. This understanding helped him realize that the issue wasn’t his job or other people, but rather his own approach to problems.

The speaker concludes by stating that having a deeper understanding of his strengths and building strategies to use them has transformed his life from being “good on paper” to a life he truly loves and feels in control of.
