Still filling in my Q&A a day journal and today's question has me stumped, so.....
Why are you impressive?

I can lead a song or speak to large groups with no fear.
I can ski down a 40 degree slope.

I have mad organizational skills! I'm also a pretty good problem solver. Give me a mess/problem and I'll have it sorted out in record time.  |

Because my daddy told me so every day when I was a little girl (and everyday of my adult life until he died)...
and I've believed it ever since.

Never thought I was lol!! Guess I don't really see anything worth the word impressive about myself. Guess I need to give it some thought.

I can get stuff done really quickly - I can accomplish a lot on short notice. (this answer comes from my son)
I can multitask really well and am very resourceful.
I can take on problems and find solutions very quickly.

Since the age of 4 I've been able to sit at a piano and play anything I hear by ear. Not just a finger plinking a few notes, but play it full out in the same key. I thought at first that everyone could do that, it seemed so obvious to me.

It's inspiring to hear you women who know your strengths and aren't afraid to state them!
Seriously, way too many of us "play small." Myself included.

I'm an impressive mum in the eyes of my daughters and my husband.

I'm very confident. It's always helpful when walking into a new job (which I used to do every couple of years). I'm not intimidated by people with great power. When meeting powerful people I'm professional but never obsequious. This has helped me greatly in my last 3 jobs.

I will do pretty much any crap task with a good attitude and a smile on my face. I will shovel the walk or clean up the bathroom (I work in a school and little boys don't always have good aim) without grumbling a bit. Then I will come whip up a cute flyer for your program or give a family a tour of the school or comfort a crying child or first-aid a skinned knee or bloody nose.
My boss often tells me that I am the go-to girl for whatever needs to get done.

According to dh no one cooks better than me. In fact, there are some things like chili or barbecued anything that he won't order in restaurants anymore because he says it's always a disappointment compared to mine. |

I'm good in a crisis. Not sure it is all that impressive, but it's a skill!

I'm very determined. I often say that the reason I have a Ph.D. is not because I'm smarter or work harder than anyone else, it's because I just wouldn't quit. |

I can make biscuits from scratch just like my grandmother use to and I am blessed enough to do so in the "dough bowl" that her grandmother used (I am fifth generation).

I'm impressive because even though I suffer from anxiety, I never give up.
