The failures that build success
I’ve tried countless times to write about TEDxAFC. My fear of exposing the failures that went with the successes (measured differently in my mind than through simple quantifiable #’s) prevented me to do so.

Reflection – VIP Strengths
The VIP Strengths results were surprising to me! The first time I took the survey in 2016. I just now took it again. Look at the similarities and differences. To me this underscores that life (and work) circumstances can affect certain focus of strength… but notice that some key core values stayed: Kindness Honesty Creativity …
