The joys of quantitative research (!)

I am actually proud of myself that I had the guts to pick up a quantitative method again... Despite my past bad experiences with it and my belief that I was not inclined towards it.

I have challenged it through learning how to use Q Methodology. My ability to do abstract reasoning, works even with numbers, it does not merely work with words. I surprise myself. :) 

If not for struggling with it, making lots of mistakes, asking for help, and trying again, I would not have learned this about myself! :)

I love how quantitative data can surprise you in a way that qualitative data cannot. And I have learned not to fear surprises. I learned that there is a story waiting to be told, and I am the story writer. :)
