[A list of words and phrases that I keep in my pocket and use for impromptu moments when I want to throw the kids off balance and boost their responsiveness.] Nakamura seems really to have come around. If I give him the time he needs to formulate a response, he steps up. Sato is marked triple-F, and should instead be a Tripple-C….… and then I enter a series of numbers:
- VIBE 76
- EMPOWERMENT 72
- IMPACT 86
- VALUE PROPOSITION 88
