Think that's the last time I'm going to take tests about myself, seriously.
A great way to spend a chunk of time
... and though they come up with different ways of asking various questions- I (realize now)have learned absolutely nothing new about myself !
lol like how many times do I have to confirm things about myself that I already knew ???
Like:
Cognitive Aptitude
92 (out of 100)
Your score indicates that your cognitive aptitude is excellent. In a field where working with computers is standard, analytical reasoning skills and the ability to understand abstract concepts is essential. This area of your skills will require very little, if any, improvement.
... wow I guess I wasn't off base all this time (as confirmed by the "How suited are you to work in IT?" questionaire)
Different test...
Social Values
81
You appear to hold social values. Social values entail three main aspects: Charity, Sociability, and Solidarity. For individuals who place meaning on this value, contributing to society is of utmost importance - being involved in the community, volunteering, and helping others is one of their main goals in life. They like to help people and enjoy closeness with others. This desire to be connected with others is one of the main tenets of this value. These individuals also likely place great importance on family and friends, and make the people in their lives their priority.
...like I had no clue on this about myself.
After all these years if I don't know these things about myself I must not be a very reflective person ( I mean I'm not even 16 anymore...but even at 16 I think I generally knew who I was- though much has changed).
Or how about the suprising:
Extroversion
48
You scored somewhere in the middle between introversion and extroversion, which means that you draw characteristics from both ends of the spectrum. Sometimes, you need time to yourself, preferring to think things through on your own. Other times, you enjoy interacting with others. Overall, you are likely a fairly outgoing person who occasionally opts for solitude. You likely need a balance of alone time and time with others in your life because you can become a little overwhelmed if you ignore the introverted side of yourself.
... of which I have gotten the same (always in the very middle between 48-51 either way)...after how many quizes & tests
LOL the only one that might have told me something slightly new or clearer is the one on if one would make a sucessful entrepreneur:
Strengths
· No strengths detected
Potential Strengths
· You possess some entrepreneurial potential
· You are somewhat of a go-getter
· You are reasonably conscientious
· You seem to possess a moderate level of self-confidence
· You are somewhat people oriented
Limitations
· No limitations detected
...of which that I also seem to be down the middle. Like maybe, if I really get motivated (or get serious about it, which would mean help & resources and a current idea that moves me & I have faith about)
Let's see if I keep to this now, no more!
( unless they come up with a really creative sounding loong test...:o)
I mean what does this mean, hmm that:
I still have an "ego" and like to hear about myself (even if no one else is interested)
I am insecure & need much reassurance about who I am (no don't think that's it)?
I still like personality psychology? That's it too ( I mean I could read some random person's results & find it interesting)
So I guess it's 50\50 1. & 3.
But it's time to stop with that and "get real"
...prioritize,prioritize, prioritize
On another compleatly different note, it's hard to stop looking at O'Donnell...because I keep wondering & seeing my daughter many decades later. How similar I think they look. and she makes the same faces & stuff with their eyes going off to this corner or that. I can hear her talking in that same confident yet not totally but gilrly way. Ms. O Donnell doesn't seem as emotional as my daughter (but ya never know).OK she lost but she seems the time that will bounce back find something new and go on happily with her life. That attitude (that she projects) & her faith is still a good example.
I have tons going through my mind that's been "going down" & that I've been thinking about.
But it'll take a lot of sorting out to write out- which I'm not ready for yet.
Other thoughts like these flow easier out, and don't really need to be properly worded.
