Well, I seems to be riding a cognitive psychology wave…I can be like that some times – once some idea got into my head, I would go way beyond the scope of the initial quest. So, while looking for something else, I’ve been aimlessly clicking on the side links, which took me some other places, with even more side links, on which I clicked too, and they took me somewhere else again…and that somewhere else had its own fancy side links, which in turn…you’ve got the idea…it is so easy to get lost in the Wild Wide Woods, especially, if each new path you take entices you more then the one you’ve just left…Anyway…being interested in practical psychology recently. Not on professional level, of course, but purely out of inquisitiveness of my ever restless mind… accidentally I’ve come across a quizzy. This was not your fancy funny quizzy (though I do like them too, especially, with the cute pictures on results page) This one was serious (well, somewhat) and required an e-mail registration and other “scientifically serious” stuff…so I’ve done that Personality test, the free part of it (it costs money to get 100 page report and I don’t feel the need to know my personality that well yet). Despite of rather simple populist questions, the results came up with the 4.5 mark on my personal scale of truthfulness. So I’m going to post them here for the future references, if I ever want to look at it again:
Your Personality Type
You are a realist who places a high value on trust and loyalty. People notice that you are passionate about your views and that they can count on you when you make a personal commitment.
Your Motto
"If you are going to do it, do it right."
How You Work best
You function best when you are in a predictable environment where expectations are clear. Too much change and unpredictability can make you feel distracted. You are most productive and at your best when you know exactly where you are headed.
I must admit, there is one thing I didn’t like in it: that I am useless in unpredicted situations. I’d like to be able to argue, but when I thought of this more carefully, I think, I ought to agree…unfortunately I am that boring “GotToKnowAllInAdvance” type. Oh well, I will console myself by knowing that at least when I am distracted, I am still able to have a realistic view and not get carried away by some illusive dreams…[ha..ha]
