You’re going to want to know what you’re like, right? And, you’re going to want to know what the people around you are like, right? By knowing what you’re like, you’re going to know what to do with yourself to get what you want.
And by knowing what the people around you are like, you’ll know what to expect of them, and how to interact with them in the best possible way.
Knowing how you think and how others you interact with think is critical in getting what you want in both your personal life and in work.
That’s why I’m so excited to have shared PrinciplesYou with you. And I’m thrilled that the Dot Collector is coming soon too. Stay tuned for more. bit.ly/3vzYY13 #PrinciplesYou

Because of the biases with which we are wired, our self-assessments (and our assessments of others) tend to be highly inaccurate. Psychometric assessments are much more reliable. Image
They are important in helping explore how people think during the hiring process and throughout employment.
Though psychometric assessments cannot fully replace speaking with people and looking at their backgrounds and histories, they are far more powerful than traditional interviewing and screening methods.

On this Memorial Day weekend, I find myself simultaneously thinking about 1) the American heroes who lost their lives in battle fighting to protect the American way and... (1/4)
2) how unlike that American way some Americans are now treating Asians, Blacks, and Jews while too few Americans are expressing their revulsion to that. (2/4)
The disconnects between the principles of America that are worth fighting & dying for—i.e., that all people are created equal—and these behaviors are upsetting to me... (3/4)

Many of you have asked me to share my #PrinciplesYou personality type, which I’m happy to do. I’m a Shaper, with strong elements of Inventor and Adventurer. The assessment described me to a tee in much greater detail than I can convey in this post. (1/7)
Being a Shaper means loving to visualize great things and build them out and being willing to wrestle with the obstacles to achieve that visualization. Being an Inventor means that I love to come up with original ideas and designs that never existed before. (2/7)
Being an Adventurer means that I’m excited by going into the unknown and even the risky. Those are my great pulls in life.

The profile also highlights my big “watch out for's.” (3/7)

As the father of a bipolar son who went through the terribly painful and enormously rewarding journey of saving my son from self-destruction due to mental illness (1/7)
I found the new movie “Four Good Days” to be an excellent portrayal of what it’s like for people in that position so I am passing it along for anyone who might find it useful. (2/7)
Because such struggles of parents trying to help their adult children successfully deal with mental illness, including addiction, are typically kept private, we don’t realize how common these struggles are. (3/7)

Values are deep-seated beliefs that motivate behaviors and determine people's compatibilities with each other. People will fight for their values, & they are likely to fight with people who don't share them. Abilities are ways of thinking and behaving. bit.ly/3vzYY13 1/5
Some people are great learners and fast processors; others possess the ability to see things at a higher level. Some focus more on the particulars; still others think creatively or logically or with supreme organization. (2/5)
Skills are learned tools, such as being able to speak a foreign language or write computer code. (3/5)

If you’re interested in my more in-depth view of the Biden program, you can find it here. In it, I look at the plan with reference to the concepts I tried to convey in “Why and How Capitalism Needs to be Reformed” and “The Changing World Order.”

History and my experiences have taught me that for societies to work they must both grow the pie and divide it well, that capitalists tend to be better at growing the pie (albeit dangerously unequally)... (2/5)
... and socialists tend to be better at dividing the pie (albeit dangerously unproductively), and that societies typically go through big cyclical swings between the two approaches. (3/5)
