Conscious and deliberate use of our character strengths in daily situation or in new scenario can help us to overcome challenges in life. Learn more about Character Strength.

Attack on Titan

We are going to take a look at one of our fav manga characters from Attack on Titan to identify his strengths.

Armin Arlet

AOT fans would know that Armin Arlet has come a long way since the beginning. Smaller and weaker than the other recruits, Armin didn’t have the physique needed for military life. As a young child he was often bullied and needed his friends to defend him. When he first joined the military, he struggled very hard as he did not have the physical strength and speed that was needed for the drills and he graduated bottom of the class. However, Armin pressed on determined to become as good as everyone else and to make his presence in the military count. He discovered his real strengths and he used those strengths to rise up and be recognized by his superiors. Armin became the person whom the military leaders would go to when they needed a solution to overcome their enemies and he rose to the rank of Commander of the Survey Corp. We think that Armin has all 6 virtues and almost all the 24 Character Strengths that is needed to overcome challengers and flourish in everything you do.

Armin Arlet is one character who learned to recognize his real strength and he used it every step of the way. His wisdom and strategic mind became the greatest asset to the military.
