  • Look for resilience and flexibility. You want to surround yourself with people who are flexible during change and will jump on every opportunity to help during a transition.Β 
  • Look for people who manage their emotions well. The question behind self-management is simple but rare: Can I manage my emotions and behavior to a positive outcome?

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
