Garth steepled his thick fingers in contemplation. “That’s the beauty of science, Counselor. My contributions to our understanding of the universe will inform other scientists, and by contributing to the continuation of that knowledge, my legacy will be immortal. Even if it is eventually only a minuscule building block that supports a more advanced understanding.”

Korczak nodded once again and then asked “And what is your biggest concern with dealing with Cadets on what is seen as, but may is not always so, a simple learning cruise prior to going to the main fleet?”

“I’m not a particularly big fan of hand-holding,” Garth grumbled, “so I hope that my cadets will be competent enough to act as if this is their first placement, rather than some simulation in a holodeck. There are real stakes here, we have real missions to accomplish. Reasonable assistance is fine, but if I find myself teaching basics… that would be frustrating.”

“Understandably so, I believe.” Korczak replied. He paused for a moment, simply looking at the Scientist with a blank expression on his face. Finally he spoke up and said “So what do you believe is your biggest personal obstacle as both a scientist and an instructor?”

Garth sighed. “All this talk of weaknesses is tiring. I wish you would take a strengths-based approach to your evaluation, counselor. But I suppose if I must reflect to identify yet another shortcoming, I do have the tendency to get “tunnel vision”. I focus intently on projects and ways of thinking that I have determined to be important and effective. I have little patience for self-doubt when a course of action has already been decided upon.”
