Career Goals

M not on here to wax poetic about myself, or accomplishments. It is not my style. I'm writing this summary so people can get a sense of, who I am, what I stand for, and how I accomplish tasks. I am a driven straight forward guy.
I've learned to harvest as many facts as possible. I have used out of the box research methods occasionally, I try to leave no stone unturned. Then based upon known facts, formulate a decision or plan. If plan/decision works, great, next project please. If not, revisit, analyse, and deconstruct, to see where I went wrong, and take corrective measures.
What I'm trying to convey about myself is.
1- I'm not afraid to make a decision, it is much better than no decision.
2- I'm not afraid of failure, everybody has failed at some point in their life. Pick up the pieces and go forward.
3- I use as much information I can to reach my conclusions. Some methods are unorthodox to a few.
4- I believe I'm an excellent listener, and can communicate my thoughts clearly and precisely.
5- I am a good team player and can be counted on doing what I'm told.
