It could also be said that what someone has "going" for him or her are the things believed to be the person's "strong points" or attractive features (e.g., one thing he's got going for him is his sense of humor).
With this in mind, other options might include "lo que pueden ser tus ventajas y desventajas/tus puntos fuertes y (puntos) débiles"
