Celebrate Your Differences!









1. EXTROVERT OR INTROVERT: extroverts love crowds while introverts would rather spend time in solitude or with a close friend. Extroverts are energized by people and intoverts are worn out by people.

2. SPENDER OR SAVER: if spenders have extra money, they want to spen--on themselves, on others, on worthy causes, on anything. if savers have extra money, they want to put it away for a rainy day. they do not like to spend uless it's very important.

3. PLANNER OR FLEXER: planners love structure with everything organized and neatly packaged. they like schedules and deadlines. flexers ben with the flow of life and take things as they come. they tend to be spontaneous and laid back. loose ends dont bother them because they believe everything will work out.

4. THINKER OR FEELER: thinkers focus on facts and principles. they base decisions on objective data and ten to be task oriented. feelers focus on people and emotions. they base decisions on subjective data and tend to be relationship oriented.

5. DREAMER OR WORKER: dreamers are creative people who love to come up with ideas. they are optimistic and oriented toward the future. workers are practical. they like to take other people's ideas and make them happen. they tend to be realistic and focus on the present.

6. COLLECTOR OR TOSSER: collectors gather things. they hate to throw anything away because they know they just might need it sometime. tossers get rid of things. they hate clutter and they insist that if you haven't used something recently, you probably never will.

7. JUGGLER OR HOLDER: jugglers are multichannedled and can deal with many things simultaneously. holders are singlechanneled and can only deal with one, maybe two, things at a time. if they try to do more, they become stressed and overwhelmed.

8. LOOKER OR LEAPER: leapers take risks; when they see an opportunity they want to jump on it before it's too late. lookers are more cautious. they like to carefully check everything out before making a decision.

9. OUTLINER OR DETAILER: outliners have a general focus and look at the big picture. they think in terms of direction and getting things done. detailers loook at the nuts and bolts. their concern is how to get things done.

as i look at this list, even tho' i think my way is always the best way (grin), i'm actually thankful that God allowed us to be different. life would sure be boring if everyone was just like me. but there are definitely challanges to having relationships with people, especially if we aren't able to celebrate the differences! so, look around and find a reason to be thankful when someone you love has a different perspective.

hey Mom! Even though we are so much alike, we still have so many differences - which help us get along so well!

Thanks for being so supportive of us, especially during softball. Without you and Dad, I wouldn't be half as good! :-)

This is a list to get your teeth into. Thanks for finding and sharing it.
Quickly, I'm Extrovert Saver Planner but Flexible (flow with the bumps) Thinker Dreamer Collector (definitely this one) Juggler (with some caution) Outliner. [I decided to use them as nouns/names as you did, they are nice descriptive adjectives too in my dictionary.]
None are really bad, except maybe being a collector.

It's good to be different. Both opposites could accomplish great things together if/when they are willing to work together. They compliment eachother.

God's Grace.
