Discover – Spring 2010


When we seek to discover the best in others, we somehow bring out the best in ourselves.
William Arthur Ward
 

There is no such thing as the pursuit of happiness, but there is the discovery of joy.
Joyce Grenfell
 

Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked.
Warren Buffett
 

In our work, we are fortunate to be always learning. From understanding advances in our clients' products and services, to getting up to speed on new clients, we love the influx of information that fuels our content creation.

This shared passion was confirmed when each High Pointer took the StrengthsFinder test – a way to discover your five core strengths. Not surprisingly, Input was one of our strongest shared strengths. (Input is defined as people who have a craving to know more.) If you've taken the test and want to compare strengths, send us a note. Given our passion for knowledge, we never say "TMI." Read on to make some discoveries of your own.
