What is a charism?
A charism is a gift of grace given by the Holy Spirit for building up the Church and serving others. It is meant to be given away.
Charisms are not simply personality traits or natural talents, even though God can work through both.
They are also different from the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit in Catholic teaching: wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. Those gifts and these charisms can be related.
This questionnaire is a starting point for discernment. It is not a definitive declaration of your spiritual gifts.
