Hi Linda,
I read the Gallup article with great interest. Especially the quote by Carl Jung.
Jung had his own theories on why people fail, he called it "the collective unconscious". He saw people not only divided into the opposites of introvert and extrovert,but into sensing and intuiting, and of feeling and thinking. By understanding how the personal unconscious integrates with the collective unconscious, Jung theorized that people can achieve a state of individuation, or wholeness of self.
In our society today, people have forgotten how to draw deep into themselves to achieve success. They instead rely on books and advice by so-called experts, instead of relying upon their own strengths.
Just a thought.
Your Good Friend
