Mary Lou used to consider her a “weird” individual, because she had an uncanny knack for remembering everything that was said on television shows. She developed this ability from the young age of seven. Her parents tended to side with others, and thought she was strange.

To the outsiders, the strangeness, if you will, came from their lack of understanding of how a person of 22 years old could remember every word said on T.V., but could not remember details of her own personal life such as hospital visits, job interviews, etc.

At 22 years old, Mary Lou decided to explore why she was so able in one area and not the others. She felt memory was the cornerstone of all areas. She met Dr. Lindstrom for an examination. He ran routine brain scans to determine where this dissection came from. His report concluded that she had a mild form of a disease that blocked certain brain waves. He informed her that treatment was available.

Mary Lou took advantage of her medical options. Over a 4 1/2 month period, she went through intensive procedures to correct her condition. Today at 25 years old, Mary Lou is blessed to have sought out Dr. Lindstrom. Great strides have taken place in her life over the last 2 years.

Mary Lou now works at one of the most prestigious brokerage firms in her city. She is using her talents to memorize and dispense statistics to fellow traders. Her unique talent speeds up the process of decision making on long-term investing. She is presently one of the greatest assets to the company.

Luckily, Mary Lou didn’t give in to her disease. She found ways to capitalize on her asset. One lesson she thought: to be an asset, you must cultivate your asset!
