An essential part of every bootstrapper's journey, particularly in [[Ideation]], is the discovery of their [[Core Energy]]. Knowing core energy helps focus and deepen our strengths while seeking out complementing dance partner(s). While there are many ways to assess personality including [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-Briggs_Type_Indicator Meyers-Briggs], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DISC_assessment DISC], etc., we use the [[Maven]], [[Relater]], [[Evangelist]] or [http://www.thehumanfabric.com MRE Framework] developed by Bijoy Goswami to create a common vocabulary among bootstrap members.
