That something extra we´d love to see…

1. Detailed: Nothing gets by you and you rarely forget a thing. When learning some new procedure, you’re the type to take notes. When everyone else is still lost, you’re already at the next steps. Others count on this skill of yours. Maybe due to your detailed nature, you are also exquisitely good at planning. You like to make plans and follow through, meticulously.
2. Fixer: You like to provide comprehensive solutions, keeping in mind both internal and external needs. You keep with the mantra of always being part of the solution (not the precipitate). Those who rush to precipitate, you’ve learned, repent at leisure.
3. Focused: You take direction, follow through, and make the necessary corrections to stay on track. Prioritize, and then act. You are like a super soldier or an average termite: focus super powers. Most of us spread our focus on too many things and that’s to our detriment.
4. People Person: You are interested in others and enjoy the challenge of meeting new people and winning them over. You feel rewarded just from breaking the ice and making a connection with another. You would probably excel as a diplomat.
5. Integrity: You don’t have a dishonest or disloyal cell in your body. Down to the marrow, you can be trusted. This applies to everything about you in every area. Some people can find this quality boring, but it’s as rare as element 115 and just as precious.
