Weaknesses 

I love challenges and like to add value wherever I go, so I see myself taking up more than I can handle which makes me use my personal time to catch up on these deliverables. What I do to tackle this weakness is not to be quick to sign up for projects or tasks. I now check my calendar and availability to ensure that I have the time to handle them before offering to.

I have a propensity to overthink my work because I want it to be excellent and this tends to make me deliver projects closer to deadlines. I am working on this by reviewing expectations ahead of time, planning clear timelines and conducting self-reviews later on. This helps me with better time management and also reduces the burden of restricting creativity too early in my process.

Because I am independent and enjoy working quickly, it has been difficult for me to ask for help when I need it. I have learned that it is much more beneficial for me to ask for help when I do not understand something or feel burned out with my workload. I have also learnt that a lot of people around me have other skills that can make my work better. While I am still working on it, I have been able to produce more high-quality work as a result of getting help from those around me.
