Caleb for you I would say your adversity quotient is fairly high. I have seen your pf blog since the very start and it has grown exponentially. Instead of giving up, you continue to work harder and innovate more than any other new pf blogger I have seen. Your new layout looks amazing and I hope that everyone gives your blog a read.

You can learn a lot about people from working with them in a stressful environment. A couple of years ago, I used to serve tables. I had a co-worker who quite often had a negative attitude and perspective. She never made enough money; her food was always taking too long; she was always over-worked in her section; and she could never keep up. Funny thing is, all of us servers had the same problems, she just looked at it negatively. We were all in the same storm, but she was drowning in it. Her adversity quotient must’ve been very small.
