I often response with 'my greatest weakness is finding my weaknesses'.

Though I also regularly answer the 'what will you be doing in 5 years' with 'in 5 years I plan to know what I'll be doing in 5 years'.

Your often response is what I think mine is for real. Until I am challenged, I have blind-spots. All the ones that I think would be truthful come off as a canned response, and all the thoughtful responses I think of would be considered long-winded babbling.

I wish the article would go into how to shift the question/answer to make it meaningful. I don't think I will read a book on the off-chance it satisfies this.

How often and regularly do you have interviews?
