I have always been an avid learner, soaking up all I can on subjects that I find interesting, buying the latest self-improvement books, listening to podcasts, diving into subjects like habit change and parenting. I love wrapping my brain around something and soak it all up to the max! I was always looking on how I could be different, ways to be a different adult me. As a primary “O” many attributes can seem unprofessional, immature, or flaky. I now know also that  a trait of an “O” is that excitement to learn all the things, or at least for  this “O” it is. 

 

 The first thing I learned from Dr. Slade was that who I was, was awesome just the way I was. Self improvement is a great thing,  but should not be used as a way to not feel enough or change the core of who we are. I learned that skills, partnerships, and processes can help me with my weaknesses. He was that partnership at first, someone to hold me accountable,  and the 7 principles in his program taught me the skills and continues to do so!
