Another great resource for this is Strengthsfinder 2.0 by Tom Rath. When you purchase the book you also get access to a long online questionnaire that helps you identify your top 5 strengths. Over the years I've really tussled with the definitions of kinesthetic smarts. I have an active dislike for participating in sports but have always found joy in movement and dance.

I bet our definition of smart is going to keep on growing, especially as times keep on changing. It’s very interesting to see where our strengths lie.
