My Talents are quite specific. I found StrengthFinder from the Gallup institute to be a reliable guide in this question. My Strengths are (starting with the most dominant):

• Ideation
  People strong in the Ideation theme are fascinated by ideas. They are able to find connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.
• Input
  People strong in the Input theme have a craving to know more. Often they like to collect and archive all kinds of information.
• Strategic
  People strong in the Strategic theme create alternative ways to proceed. Faced with any given scenario, they can quickly spot the relevant patterns and issues.
• Learner
  People strong in the Learner theme have a great desire to learn and want to continuously improve. In particular, the process of learning, rather than the outcome, excites them.
• Achiever
  People strong in the Achiever theme have a great deal of stamina and work hard. They take great satisfaction from being busy and productive.
