Tonight, two of my good friends came over and we got caught up with what we've been doing since we last got together and chatted. Daniel gave me some great feedback about one of my greatest weaknesses and gave me a way of overcoming it.
There are a couple of great things about what happened there. First of all, it was nice to get an honest, loving assessment of one of the reasons I'm not as savvy as I could be. Daniel's a very nice guy and tends to be far more complimentary of me than I deserve, so it was great to get some criticism. The other great thing is that my weakness is one of Daniel's strong points, so it was like getting a master class.
I'm clearly a bit leery about telling you what my weakness is, partly because I'm hoping I can take make it more of a strength before too many other people realize I have it.
There are very few things more valuable than people who love you enough to let you know why you suck. You can tell they love you when they help you find ways to fix it.

SO...part of the reason I'm leery of giving feedback is that I may end up in a blog post. But then, it truly is an honor to be in a blog post written by you Rob.
