As I say in my description I am a left-handed guy in a right-handed world. As such I have to use both sides of my brain to a greater degree than most folks. I think that has caused me to have a mind that rapidly analyzes problems; thinks thru the variety of solutions available and comes up with a way ahead all in my head. This causes me problems with others because they can't see my thought processes and just assume I've jumped to a conclusion without thinking it thru.
I also am usually convinced of the "rightness" of the solution - which again causes me problems with others when trying to convince them of the solution. Hopefully I've gotten better over the years in trying to explain my thoughts but I still have a long way to go.
I still haven't figured out what I want to be when I grow up. I retired from the Air Force in 99 and have been a govt contractor ever since except for a 2 yr stint back in govt in Homeland Security. My recent return to the contractor world has convinced me that at heart I am a public servant -- I need a mission to achieve. So I can see myself back in government in the near future.
Being left-handed my mind works in strange ways since I have to use both sides to function in a right-handed world. Perhaps thru this I might even understand how it works.
