    The Strength cards are a wonderful resource to support children’s self-esteem. At times they do not realise their amazing qualities and they are happy to see they have such fantastic strengths and qualities. They walk away feeling great about themselves knowing they have beautiful qualities. I ask them to read their qualities out aloud which reinforces their qualities to them.

    Working in a school I loved the ‘Sometimes Magic happens when’ cards to help students identify how they best work in class and share this information with their teachers. I saw imcreased engagement in their class work and closer relationship with staff. So helpful 😊

    My favourite card is “achievements”. We so rarely stop and reflect on what we have achieved, we focus on what has gone wrong or what we still have to do.

    It has been powerful both in life and work. It’s a great way to be grateful too. Grateful for the things that are going well.

    I like the design too. The stacked rocks remind us that achievement does not mean perfection.

    One of my favourite cards from the Innovative Resources are “Strength Cards”. These cards feature a simple yet powerful message to encourage people to notice their strengths and resources. They may not recognise these strengths in themselves. Displaying these cards on the floor or table for participants to choose the cards – aligning and resonating to their own life, personality and story. These cards break the silence withing every person who are feeling disempowered in their current situations. These Strengths cards are valuable to open the topic – as Discover Your Top 5 Strengths Now – which are covered so far by your self-limiting beliefs and perception.

    What speaks to me most about this card is its depiction of strength in flexibility. In both my personal life and work, leveraging one’s top 5 strengths have been a cornerstone values. These cards serve as a reminder that facing challenges and adversity is a natural part of growth, and that the ability to adapt and recover is a true measure of strength. But, first Discover Strengths, Develop those strengths like muscles and Empower Your Strengths by using them daily.

    In my work, these cards have been a valuable tool in facilitating discussions about overcoming obstacles. It has helped clients visualize their own power of strengths and recognize their capacity to bounce back from setbacks. Personally, it has been a source of encouragement during tough times, reminding me to stay grounded yet flexible.

    I love the design of the cards – the simplicity of the clear, impactful word. The design style is clean and minimalistic, which allows the message to stand out without distraction.

    Overall, the “Strengths” card has had a profound influence on my life and work. It encapsulates a powerful concept in a beautifully simple way, making it a cherished part of my toolkit for inspiration and support.

    The pack of Symbol cards are the most used. I have 3 different sets of cards from Innovative Resources, but the symbol cards have been the most used as they are always simple, easily placed on the floor or tables, people walk around and can immediately identify a symbol that relates to their current experience of a question. It certainly helps individuals share in small or large groups. Totally recommend them.
