  • #1 - Individualization

    The genius of your Individualization talent is that you see each and every person and a one of a kind, distinct individual. But more than that, you see the particular factors, qualities, characteristics, thoughts, and perception that make each person distinct.

    You see each person as a mosaic of highly individual factors each of which contribute to a person’s distinctiveness includes both personal qualities and past events that have formed the person. You are curious about their individual characteristics and you and yourself thinking and asking questions about what makes each person so distinct.

    This results in people feeling special and prized by your attention. But all of this simply lays a foundation for the genius of your Individualization. Your genius is that armed with all of this thinking and question-asking, you attempt to interact with each person based on their individual qualities. This leads to meaningful and very helpful relationships.

  • #2 - Communication

    The genius of your Communication talent is found in the profound fact that you can and words for your thoughts and your feelings.

    Whereas many people have lots of good ideas, they often stumble in finding the words that capture and convey their good thoughts. Yet, you can do this with ease.

    But the genius of your Communication talent doesn’t end with your ability to and words for your thoughts and feelings; You can and words for the thoughts and feelings of others means that in interactions, you can help other people express their thoughts and feelings as is seen in the way that you can often complete people’s sentences or and the word that they cannot and in expressing their feelings.

  • #3 - Arranger

    The genius of your Arranger talent begins with what you can see and perceive. You can see patterns and perceive how things go together or could go together.

    Whereas most people only see things as isolated items, you see groupings and connections. The genius of your arranger perception comes to light in that you can take many different items, bits of information, factors, people, and/or events and then see patterns among and between them.

    This enables and empowers you to arrange items, facts and information, people, and the many things that must come together for successful events and activities.

    You are a genius at coordinating people and events because of your Arranger talent.

    Accordingly you can “multi-task” like few others. You can deal with chaotic situations by seeing how to combine and coordinate as you will see connections and linkages. But the ultimate genius of your Arranger talent is seen in what you do after you have completed a project.

    You go back and arrange and rearrange in your mind what you did. This results in increased effectiveness and efficiency each time you use your arranger talent.

  • #4 - Competition

    The genius of your Competition talent begins with the tremendous energy, drive and determination within you.

    You want to succeed. You demand success for yourself and you measure that success in terms of where you stand in comparison to others.

    For you, second place is sometimes seen as another word for “loser”. But the drive to win, succeed and achieve is a basis for leadership and impacting the lives of others.

    First, your “win attitude” is a model for others. Second, your competition is often turned into being a source of inspiration for others. And finally, you can use your competition talent to stimulate others to strive for higher levels of performance and productivity. You are someone who grabs the attention of others and they begin to believe that they too can achieve.

    There is great energy, power, determination, and motivation within you to make a significance cant and lasting difference in the world. While others may consider you egotistical this is not your motive. You want to make a significance cant difference because there is a lot wrong in the world and you are trying to make the world better.
