Which Power would you prefer?

If you had the choice between being able to intuitively know a person's personal strengths or intuitively know their personal weaknesses, which would you choose?

I'd prefer to be able to know someone's weaknesses at a glance, whether they are dishonest, or bigotted, or stupid, etc.

(Instead of being able to know their strengths such as loyalty, empathy, generosity, etc...)

Which would you choose?

hiya,
I think knowing the weaknesses might be more interesting as you can help others to work on their weaknesses and become better. However there are some people who wouldnt change.

love and blessings to all

my first thought was I'd like to know their strenghts.
I'd rather know someone who is strong and true because one who is weak tends to drag you down. You can usually see for yourself anyway the signs of weakness in someone, if you know them well enough.

ah but wouldn't the world be a better place if the 'stronger' ones inspired the 'weaker' ones, rather than seeing them as inferior or a drain, just a thought as a lot of 'weakness' is actually a lack of confidence instilled in people by others imo

I understood the question to be, "would you want to know a persons weakness, or a persons strengths??
As it seems people may be a myriad of both.....
I would choose as is, to see both, to better help someone to pull from; be aware of their strengths to enhance their percieved weakness?? hhhhmmmmmmmm
its all good! ones percieved weakness could be their most valuable strength....i suppose.... I like to try not to judge people or myself to harshly, not easy sometimes....but a goal of the way!:)
Love and Light

Hi

My first thought was strengths, the reason being if anyone could see my weaknesses they might be the wrong person and play on that fact

but now you mention helping people if you could see their weakness and that sounds a lot better to me

Hiya,
At a glance, I'd prefer to intuitively know a persons strength. My reason is that I'm of the notion that everyones personal weakness is actually their personal strengths, it just sits more subconsciously most of the time. Strengths are a guiding light to accepting weaknesses. Love it all I reckon, they're one in the same.

I would have to say the persons weeknesses, then you could work on the weeknesses to improve there self worth. Just my opinion anyways.

To be honest, I wouldn't want to know either, since it could change how I react and interact with others. And know others would be able to know mine too, it might change my own actions. I simply go about my life trying, and often failing, to be the best person, humanly and spiritually, that I can be. It seems that if you try to impress people you seldom will, at least not in a positive way.
