Skills
I see my profession as a sport.
I think of myself as a skilled athlete.
I’m starting out with a set of skills to perform a specific job well.
Most athletes are contented to play in the top league.
I am not that kind of athlete. I am the kind of athlete that believes they can be the amongst the best in the world. To that end I’m committed to adding skills to my game.
There are 4 areas where I seek to develop my skills:
Effectiveness
Efficiency
Flexibility
Flair
Skills are gained one after another, if sequenced properly, the acquisition of some skills make the acquisition of future skills easier. I think this is the best sequence.
