Oh Curtis baby - just because I am hard on you doesn't mean I don't love you. Need I say it - just ranting without articulating your needs is a sign of low emotional intelligence. All you had to do was swallow your pride and say - Hey Rav, can I have a consolidated, concise list like Steve as well.
Oh yeah? No problem Curtis here you go 1) Stick to your strengths (very, very important, you know what they are - I already told you OK?) 2) Avoid your weaknesses - viz your seductive, killer charm shouldn't come at the expense of honest, integrity and accountability. 3) Stop falling prey to the rabid pack mentality of your white, old boy, Mid-Western clique. 4) Stop letting your beliefs in the epistemological purity of neuroscience and DSM from making you immobile 5) Stop getting progressively cruder, baser and grosser because of your 7 layered deception Good luck !!!
