PL 101: Introduce Yourself! (Discussion 1)
Welcome to our first course in the Leadership Development Program! I am very excited to get this going. This has been something we've wanted to do for the last several months and at long last it is here. Please find the course description below. Please also introduce yourself and let us (if comfortable) where you are from and a recent book or movie you have enjoyed. I'll get us started!
Course Description: You have personal gifts and strengths that can help you in life and also help other people. Identifying, amplifying, and deliberately building those strengths enables you to have a better personal life, professional life, and also enables you to more effectively serve others in our community. People sometimes make the mistake of focusing too much on their weaknesses. This can help, but deliberately building your strengths will get you much further in life and in your career. This course provides links to personality testing (MBTI, Big 5) where you can learn to identify your personality style and strengths. It helps you understand how to match your strengths to roles in the 7 Cups community and enables you to find a career path that will be fulfilling. Join other new leaders in individual and group learning exercises.
Please note: In order to successfully complete the LDP, you must respond to all discussion posts. Your comment/response should answer the questions/shows that you completed the given activity (if any). Read the post carefully and follow the instructions given. Save your responses to a document that you can later refer to. You will need to copy/paste your response in the course evaluation form at the end of each course to show that you have done the work and to refresh your memory.
After fulfilling the requirements of this post, please check out the next post here! You must take part in the brainstorming/activities given in all of these posts to successfully complete the program.

Hello there!
I am from India and the last book I read was A Brief History of time by Prof. Stephen Hawking. Loved it! I had to read it twice to get the whole material (at least most of it)....
The last movie I watched was Dr. Strange, wow, it was one of a kind!

@marvelloustree1111 Dr. Strange is awesome!
Hi! I’ve already been typed as ENFP from a website called cognitive8, it uses visual and auditory cues while typing. Speaking of my Enneagram, I’m almost type 5 as someone dealing with schizophrenia.
Forgot to tell you that I’m an Uzbek Saudi living in Riyadh, I’m a fan of Disney and my favorites are Aladdin and Treasure Planet, both made by the same directors.

@GlenM 🙏
Thanks for this Thread, as by my as it clearly says, Am Nitya, am practicing Spirituality and healing.
And I joined 7 Cups as I got motivated by the fact that we Gemini people are chatter box and not good listeners, so to prove it that we are also Good listeners, am here...🙂
Am an Indian, as it clearly shows my native country.
And recently I Saw film "A Beautiful Beast"🎬. As the story of film really motivates an invoking thought that sometimes we need isolation and free ourselves from World duties to be at Peace with Nature.
Regards🙏
