My Secret Sauce

Describe five ways in which you think you have human capital that is truly unique
1. I have no problem looking back on a situation and making it clear that I was in the wrong but then laughing at my flaws. 
2.  I liked to look at small details within a situation because I like to use my detective and reasoning skills to infer more information.
3. I love to be sarcastic because I think satire is one of the best forms of communication ever used. 
4. I grew up in a large family that has created this sense of competitiveness in me.
5. I differ in sorts that I think I do some of my best writing in high pressure situations. 

 Interview the five people who know you the best.

1. The first interviewer was my little sister, Angela. My key takeaway from this interview is that she thinks I am a great person to be around because I am optimistic but goofy about it.
2. The second interview was with my girlfriend. Gillian pointed out that I liked to look at the small details of things because of my business minded brain. 
3. The third interview is with my little brother, Kenny. Kenny thinks what makes me stand out is that I do not mind being the odd man out. 
4. The forth interview is with my other little brother, Kyle. Kyle says plainly that I stand out because I like to put my life on hold in order to better someone else's. 
5. The fifth interview is with my mother. The key points that my mother pointed out was that I had a kind personality and that I have no problem helping others. 

Reflect on the differences
After talking to my family members and my girlfriend it makes me happy to know that my closest people all think highly of me. I liked the fact that my girlfriend, arguable the closest person to me knows that I like to point out things others don't realize. I think my family as a whole would agree with my points that I made and you can roughly see that through the interviews. If I were to redo my previous list I don't think I would change a thing because what my family said reflected these points.

  1. Hey Kevin! I think it’s great that the people closest to you see you the same way you see yourself. I found this also to be true in my exercise, which you check out here: http://cxgoss.blogspot.com/2016/03/my-secret-sauce.html. You mentioned that you grew up in a large family, which I think can cause you to have so many unique qualities just from how it was growing up for you, compared to someone like myself, who comes from a very small family.
