The Underlying Cause Of Your Top
Frustrations And Aggravations?

(The ultimate in "competitive intelligence" - It's not what you think!)

 

From Timothy A. Gross, Executive Director - Educated Media, LLC

Friends, deploying your personal assets correctly is critical to your success.

You wouldn't:

* Hire an accountant to write your advertisements
* Ask your lawyer to paint a picture for your office wall

...And yet individuals often work well below their OWN capacity because they mistakenly choose to put themselves into environments and take on work loads they aren't best suited for!

This simple fact can account for many of the frustrations and aggravations you may have in your daily life - Both in business, and in your relationships. (And of course, business IS about relationships.)

Self-Awareness Of Your Strengths And
Possible Weaknesses Is Of Ultra-Importance.

Example: What if Michael Jordan never realized he had a particular knack for basketball, and spent his entire career playing baseball in the minors?

What if Sylvester Stallone hadn't clued in to the fact that he made a great action star, and had dropped the Rocky and Rambo movies so he could sing in Rhinestone 2, 3, 4, and 5? (Note: If you didn't see Rhinestone, Stallone sang country music with Dolly Parton in the movie... it wasn't his shining moment.)

- You may be a work-alone genius who's currently in a management job you don't excel at.

- You may be doing technical work when you're better suited to be a team leader/motivator.

Here's the thing:

If you're employed by an outside company, you may not have the ability to choose your "dream job", but if you are an entrepreneur and/or you own your own business, you may be accidentally CHOOSING to spend your time at things you don't like or aren't suited for, just because you never quite realized what you excel at the most!

Self awareness is a tricky thing. If you can't get the most out yourself, you're in for a much harder life than is needed.

I strongly encourage you to take the following personality test - What you learn may be very interesting... and profitable... to you. :-)

Go to: http://www.socionics.com/ipti/ipti-2.htm

-Take the test (it'll just take a couple of minutes) and the results will be emailed to you in the form of four letters which describe your personality type. (Like INTP, ENTJ, ISFP, etc.)

Now this is important: When you get your personality results by email, there will be a link to personality types on socionics.com. You are welcome to look at your personality description on their website, but a much more complete and valuable interpretation of the results can be found here:

www.personalitypage.com/INTP.html
www.personalitypage.com/ENTJ.html
www.personalitypage.com/ISFP.html

(Just replace those four letters with your personality test results, and be sure to CAPITALIZE them just as in the examples to get to the page.)

Note that at the bottom of your personality profile page on personalitypage.com, there are links to "Careers" and "Relationships" for your personality type, which you should read as well.

A final thought:

We probably spend more time trying to get inside of our competitors' heads than we do looking inside our own (smile). So make sure you're getting the most valuable "competitive intelligence" in the world... your own!
