Give me a task to do and you might as well consider it done. God has given me some serious organizational skills complemented by persistence and determination to work in a timely manner. Yes, I make lists, mostly in my head, however, sometimes making a list on paper helps me to prioritize them and check them off when they are completed. While being task-oriented is good it can also be a hindrance because when I am focused on a job there are times when I miss what is going on around me. Through the years and many personality tests, I have learned that I can get impatient working with others because they move to slow. There is a lot to be learned from working in a group rather than being self-driven. Working with others provides an opportunity to see the "whole" picture of the entire project along with the "why" of doing it. |
