In Praise of Misfits: Why business needs people with Asperger’s syndrome, attention-deficit disorder, and dyslexia

Check out this article from the Economist: “In Praise of Misfits” by Schumpter: Why business needs people with Asperger’s syndrome, attention-deficit disorder, and dyslexia.

It reminds me of something I saw recently from former atheist Michael Minot. He wrote, “You’re spectacularly made, imprinted with a unique design that is not of your own making. God made you wonderful!”

It reminds me of David’s attempt to use Saul’s armor: Saul dressed David in his own tunic. He put a coat of armor on him and a bronze helmet on his head. David fastened on his sword over the tunic and tried walking around, because he was not used to them.

“I cannot go in these,” David said.

So he took his own sling instead.

And slayed Goliath.

1 Samuel 17:38-39

It reminds me how God wants you to be the best you — you can be (with help from Him of course)

You are fearfully and wonderfully made. (Psalm 139:13-14)
