The Value of One, The Power of All

Day Two: The Value of One, The Power of All. Physical challenges...ugh. Before the day even started, I was having flashbacks of gym class.
But it turned out interesting, to say the least. It was a series of difficult challenges we’d have to complete as a small team. Everyone had their personal “ah hah!� discovery moments of the week, this may have been it for some people, but it wasn’t mine quite yet. If anything, it showed how hard it was going to be during the week to communicate when all the leaders were trying to be...well...leaders.
Later, we took the DiSC personality test...One of those scientific ones people spend years on or something...each letter stands for something...I was a high D…...standing for Dominance. Oh goody. Ok, so at the time I wasn’t thrilled, but it’s just a leadership style, and it’s my leadership style, and in real life hopefully the styles of a group balance each other out. As the week went on, and with my family's encouragement, I definitely came to terms with my inner "D".
