The Experiment: 7 out 100 Finished

Well, the experiment has kicked off, and whoever signs-up next will be Subject 8.

I had a great start, but after I did good with the first several subjects, I think I freaked out a bit. I was rather shocked by my own accuracy, and that in turn made me fear myself.

I started to wonder could I keep up with my new track record. Was this real, or is it just plain luck?

I tend to believe I am on to something, but it will take time to see how this all plays out.

It's just scary at times to put yourself out there like this, knowing you could fail. But without failure, we never grow and learn, nor do we reach our full potential--so I am giving this my all!

Today I added scores of all the participants on my website (there is a graphic link on the home page). I figured this would be good for multiple reasons. I am sure, you my readers, will find it interesting to watch as this experiment progresses--first and foremost.

But I also think it will be good for me to keep my perspective. I tend to be really hard on myself when I don't score so well, and I didn't score so well on the last two. Seeing the big picture helps meI have speculated as to why I didn't do good on the last two, but I want to give it more time to see if the pattern repeats.

I will try to get a few more subject profile/reviews up in the coming week so check back to see them. I don't think I will post all subjects as it is time consuming, but I will update and change them from time-to-time, and I will keep scores of all subjects posted at all times.

If you participate and want to know your subject number, I will be happy to share it with you! Just let me know.
