The Secret of Luce's Success

Luce had a million ideas Her mind ran ahead of her all the time Capturing things others missed Putting them into the recesses of the corners of her dendrite fields Luce was not afraid to share. Or take a chance. She was fearless, showing that being right was okay, and being wrong was just another way to figure things out Another conquest to master. Luce was not afraid to be wrong. People did not laugh or make fun of her when she made a mistake, for they were in awe at how rapidly her mind processed and spit out information in surprising new ways. Luce was known in her workplace for her genius, her generosity, and her willingness to share. She was welcoming and wise, and it was not long before even the newbies were in her office, throwing out ideas, waiting to see what the thought. The secret of her success? Luce was an idea person. More importantly she was a great listener. She encouraged each person she met to tell her their story. Strangers on the street saw her eyes, and knew. Waitresses and bus drivers opened up to her like she was their best friend. There was a magical quality about Luce. The key to her popularity was that she loved people, and their ideas.
