Ambiguity

One thing that I knew about myself (and which was enforced by all those obscure psychometric tests in OB class) is that I am not comfortable with ambiguity. The information given to me has to be clear and categorical. It's easy to say "Of course, getting all that you want is an ideal case", but in a situation which warrants an important decision, you would want all the information you can get your hands on before you press the button. Unfortunately, this NEVER happens in the real world.The lesson to be learnt here is to learn how to use the (unclear/insufficient) information given to us to the maximum possible extent, and make logical inferences and conclusions.
Ambiguity rules!
