Concealed Strengths Which Show Case the Obvious
Rich Eisenauer, my former Sunday School teacher of two years, is my adult fan. For the past few years, Mr. E has been much more of a Sunday School teacher to me; he has been a mentor and father figure who has helped me overcome some of my biggest challenged.

That makes sense considering that futuristic, maximizer, and intellection are my strengths which occur “below the surface.” Meaning, they take place in my mine and are expressed when I achieve or command. The most significant information that my meeting provided me with was the fact that my analytical strengths are unnoticeable, but work to make me the achiever and commander whom people perceive me to
