If Rgcraig is right...this person's feet should not be soiled by the earth.
I make a motion that this poster be carried around in a basket from now until that great and terrible day (when she starts drinking lattes and eating bon-bons).
Intellection? Is that a word...cool.

I'm sure you know, even if she's right, that each one of those items has a "dark side."

I already drink lattes, and I love chocolate truffles. I try not to eat the truffles too often, and I've recently started ordering skinny lattes. That is quite a sacrifice.
I'm not sure intellection is a word.

Intellection is a word in Strength Finders.
There are 34 strengths.

1. You're right. I'm very competitive.
2. Balance is important.
3. LOL!!! I used to read encyclopedias during recess. I was THAT kid.
4. Does multi-tasking count? Jeff laughs at me because in the evenings I usually have the TV on, my laptop on my lap, the kids schoolwork next to me, looking over the next day's lesson, AFF open, Facebook open, and the phone within reach.
5. I take ownership to a fault. If things don't go well, I'm crushed because I blame myself.
7.  You have no idea!!! That's not always a strength. If I'm not using good self-control, I tend to cut people off mid-sentence and get straight to the point.  Jeff, especially, does NOT find it amusing. I'm very impatient, so that adds to the problem.
You're good. I'm still not sure how each item relates to a strength....
I should take the test--just for fun. Is there a link, or was it on paper?

There's a charge for it - if you purchase the book there's a password included to take the test.
#4 - More of the definition - - you like exercising the muscles of your brain, stretching them in multiple directions. LOL!!!

PM it to me, and the title of the book. Or, you could just post it right here.
