I am a detail guy in work, in play not so much. In work I want to inspect every tree, in this I am then able to see the forest. It does not take me long though and generally I see where things are going rather quickly. I do get frustrated with plodders, the ones who overly inspect and analyze. It is strange, I do respect the analytical mind and process, for me it is a task for times of solitude not collaboration. Thus, in my solo endeavors I am mr. slo mo. Perhaps I do not know or fully understand my thinking process. hmm now I have more to think on! Common Ground is found in patience, that or hiding my frustration! Really though I tend to ask questions of my collaborator, what are the expected outcomes, why they think a certain approach is best. It took me years to learn this. Am I manipulative in how I phrase the questions to get my desired action? That is an entirely different can of worms! I always question myself after the fact, in solitude,
how did I get what I wanted so easily?!! Truth is all parties involved can get what they want/need, it just takes to darn long.
