[Rye Miles #13621]

Called a Venn diagram used to show the relationship between several sets.

UB,

I'm no meteorologist, but I interpret the diagram as this:

What you do gets in between what you like to do and what you're good at from making money.

Of course, you could redraw these things all sorts of ways and insert all sorts of stuff. Ginger and Mary Ann could possibly overlap, so long as Gilligan was left out and you inserted yourself instead, the three of which are entirely enveloped by a fourth circle called the El Rancho Relaxo. Of course, something to consider, only you and Tina Louise are still alive, and she's 88 years old. 

But I don't think Mary Ann, stamp collecting, and Thurston Howell would create any sensible combination, and would avoid that entirely.

[Rip Snorter]

A successful diagram would show overlaps of the "Things I do" field with (Hopefully) all three of the circles.  The greater the overlap the better the outcome.

Well I’m no SY-cologist but that looks like it would complicate my life by a factor of 2.5 circles.

Maybe if it was color coded….. );

[LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L]

There.  I fixed it.

I can mail you some crayons and we can have a  Zoom meeting, if that helps. It is easier if you start by using interesting fun stuff like, likker, women and cigars in the circles instead, til you get the hang of it. Then work up to the serious stuff like guns, boats, explosives, and swords.

I'm 75 yrs old I ain't rethinking anything about my life! Just sayin'............

So what do you do with it, once it's  drawn?   

(besides the obvious).

It is one of those "Consultant" big important meeting things.  When used with good data, you show a current situation, a desired goal, and ongoing progress toward that desired outcome. I was unfortunate enough to spend years of my life in that sort of meeting.

Bob was Army, not USMC.

I looked at it and wondered how he knows me so well.

[Utah Bob #35998]

The Things I’m Good At is not only grammatically wrong, it is much too large for me.

Yeah, me too.  All of that training consultant stuff ended up as dusty binders residing in managers' book shelves.  Occasionally there was a training class we could actually use for something, but most of it was a huge waste of very expensive managerial time. 

 

It gave everyone something intellectual sounding to parrot back for promo interviews.

As requested...

To “Rethink my life” implies that I put some thought into it in the first place. 

[PowderRiverCowboy]

Naw to late for that , Made my deals with the devil and paid for them , I have my demons and they hide from me

I rather think you have.

[Waxahachie Kid #17017 L]

I'm too old to do anything BUT re-think...if I can remember to do that.

It is a waste of time for me. I've done the math, and I don't have enough time left to make any meaningful, major/minor, relevant, changes. 

I'm at the age where I can barely keep up with all the things I hate.

[Dusty Devil Dale]

Parts of my life I guess I'd like to re-think.  Others I would really like to re-live; especially with what I know now!

[Utah Bob #35998]

Maybe pre-think if you could manage it. But who does that when they’re young?
