Two-Day Game Warning: Almost the End of Regulation !
As I approach my Big Day (Public Dissertation Defense ) to complete my Doctor of Philosophy , my journey toward this ultimate goal may be drawing to a close while my next one toward my career advancement will begin.
However, my Ph.D. pursuit has helped me grow, not just professionally , but also personally , and most of all: spiritually . Furthermore, this undertaking couldn’t have been accomplished single-handedly: GOD’s grace provided, JESUS’ example was all-sided, and the HOLY SPIRIT’s light guided, in addition to Team Dr. D, who had my back. I forever will be grateful to the †Heavenly HOLY TRINITY† and my positive supporters here on Earth , who’ve rooted me on all the way , leading up to this Tuesday, December 8 ~ save-the-date
My next anticipated title this Advent : Tita Elaine .
We expect my future niece or nephew to arrive around CHRISTmas time ~ the very 1st grandchild of my parents , who recently celebrated their ♥wedding♥ anniversary . Yes, my family is very blessed . Regardless of these joyous times, I pray that we’ll always turn to the LORD , as we lead our lives here while preparing our eternal home in Heaven .
Sending peace and goodwill to San Bernadino, CA, in the wake of this terrorist tragedy. ✌

Happy National Dessert Day!
My peers who’ve preceded me in finishing their doctor of philosophy degrees can agree:
Cleaner and clearer are better.
That means: clean desks and clear minds …
Plus clean PowerPoint s to clear our minds !
Two of my esteemed classmates who graduated a few years ago and whose guidance I sought for my paper and slideshow both explicitly pointed out that I most certainly must cut back
Down to 120-140 slides, no more than 150!
As the ☼summer☼ drew to a close ~ during my most recent hurdle (that lasted four months as we entered fall term ), my statistics ~ I already reached 300+ slides and reached 300+ pages of my dissertation
Yet that’s way too many to fit into a two-hour presentation (including professors ‘ Q&A) ~ so I’ve reduced down to almost ½ so far!
This slide: an indicator that I measured a TON of stats ! I ended up taking out 50+ slides last night … Shooting to eliminate more. Next issue: making sure that the fewer slides that I look less cluttered
Just as I’ve had to minimize my clutter-bug and shutter-bug ways, I’m also de-cluttering / cleaning and clearing up my PowerPoint
That way, I can advance into the next round !

Grey’s Anatomy Leadership
Be worthy of being believed in , of being looked up to .
~ Dr. Edwards to “the other” Dr. Shepherd * (Feb. 26, 2015)
You have to lead .
~ Dr. Harmon to “the other” Dr. Shepherd * (Feb. 26, 2015)
Being a leader isn’t about whether they’ll listen to you, it’s whether they believe in you.
~ former Chief Dr. Richard Webber to new Chief Dr. Miranda Bailey (Oct. 1, 2015)
I call this GA 360 because this is relevant to followers and leaders alike:
Confidence
“There’s a scientific study that shows that if you stand in superhero pose for just five minutes before a job interview or a big presentation or a really hard task, you will not only feel confident , but you will perform measurably better.
~ *Dr. Amelia Shepherd to Dr. Edwards on Grey’s March 5 , 2015 )
From Big Bang Theory
Dr. Leonard : “I’m a little nervous” (about approaching George Lucas at Skywalker Ranch ).
Dr. Sheldon Cooper Confidence is key in these situations.”
Empathy
It’s an evolutionary advantage to be included in things.” [as I teach about affection being a basic interpersonal/social need]
~ Dr. Amy [played by real-life Ph.D. and the Blossom star from 2½ decades ago] about feeling left out to empathize with bf Sheldon
Alliteration and Assonance
You are the K ing K ong of P ing P ong . You are the Menace of Table Tennis … You said you played Bad minton ? More like Sad minton !
~ Dr. Howard to Dr. Raj
Progress
You know why you’re acting this way? You’re so close! I’ve been there … When you’re about to make a breakthrough . Keep going. Don’t stop.
~ Dr. Derek Shepherd Dr. Caliet (wannabe mistress) on GA
^– I most certainly must heed this as I approach my finish line ! –^

During this week’s conference call with my dissertation chair , she called me
conscientious .
I not only accepted this ~ to ♥heart♥ and absolutely at face value ~ as the best compliment from her (when we were discussing the running and re-running of my statistics for my research results ) but also am ensuring that I live up to this standard .
When my cohort members and I were admitted into our doctoral program , conscientiousness * happened to be one of the personality traits for which we tested and that we studied in our leadership theories literature. It comes from the (1b) Big Five OCEAN ” acronym:
O penness (or O riginality)*C onscientiousness (or C onsolidation)
E xtroverion ~ I’ve also consistently tested high for this in the (2) Myers-Briggs ENFJ for E xtraversion • In tuition • F eeling • J udging) both when I took it as a psych minor for my undergrad and again in doc school A greeableness (or A ccommodation)N euroticism (or Emotional In stability) ~ the reverse of this attribute as leaders and doc students is ideal to deal
According to the (1a) instrument provided by my doctoral degree program , someone who is conscientious is “achievement”-oriented and “self-disciplined” ~ so this implies that conscientiousness involves intentions (definitely something for which I strive ).
Currently, my conscientiousness has stuck with me through school ~ as both a scholar educator
This past week, I taught my students about literary terms , so I tied them into ♪music♫ and pop culture:
Asyndeton ♫George Strait ♪The Chair♪
VIDEO
Irony ♫Alanis Morissette ‘s ♪Ironic♪
VIDEO
Verbal and Nonverbal Communication Jeremy Lin How to Fit in the NBA

Now I know that my advisor wasn’t trying to flatter me, but her acknowledgment meant encouragement of the ♥heart .
I challenge you fellow servants and leaders to consider which personality traits that you have in order to enhance your strengths and improve from your weaknesses!

After I helped lead my †Church† in prayer at Vigil Mass, Fr. Bob Pastor , greeted me as “Soon-to-be Dr. Dispo ” ~ to which I replied, “GOD-willing ,” and “to glorify GOD .”
