I love this one. I recognize myself in most of this (and linked) descriptions (GTD notebook, lol). Except for the bits I don't. But the thing is, the bits that do not reflect me are because I had life experiences that taught me the value of skills to acquire those other habits. For example, I am no longer afraid of small talk (most of the time) and random people. But, I used to be. I know exactly when it changed. When dotcom bubble burst, I chose to do a senior tech support job for three years. Going into the job, I had no people skills. Leaving it, I had plenty and kept developing. Turned out to be a super-useful skill in our "public communication shy" general community. And by combining ability to communicate with geek's ability to connect the dots and see the critical communication path, I can do things that are hard for people with only one of those skills. Of course, now I see pretty much all of my projects/activities as "Hero's Journey". But that's another discussion.
