Leadership

I am almost always the leader in any group.

Sometimes I am the leader, but I am willing to follow others, too.

Usually, I am a follower and let others make the big decisions.

I am usually a loner and not involved in leading or following

Competition *

I thrive on competition with others.

I am competitive when I feel confident about my chances of winning.

I would rather cooperate with others than compete against them.

I strongly dislike competitive situations.

Money (when I have extra money)

I will spend it but only on things that will help me reach my goals.

I almost always save it for a long time.

I rarely have any extra money to save or spend.

I spend it spontaneously on things I probably don’t need

Mistakes (when I make a mistake)

I analyze what went wrong and takes steps to avoid similar situations in the future.

I think about how I would do things differently in the future.

I try to ignore it and move on quickly.

I get really angry at myself and feel really bad for a while.

Ideas (when I have a good idea)

I will use all the time, money, and skills I have available to make it happen.

I usually talk about it with my friends or family to find out if they think it is a good idea.

I will usually keep it to myself until I have a chance to act on it.

I usually act on it immediately.

Interpersonal

I am very social and outgoing.

I am friendly, but I like other people to initiate contact.

I like doing things by myself most of the time.

I am friendly but very shy.

Work (when I envision my future work life, I expect)

To work 12–16 hour days to jump-start my career and make sure I get ahead professionally.

To work a normal 40-hour workweek with longer hours for special projects or events

To make my own hours and choose when I want to work.

Not to work, be a stay-at-home parent for my kids.

Overscheduled, stressed, and likely to get sick during any time off from my intense schedule.

Having an easy schedule and few responsibilities and commitments so I don’t get stressed or sick.

Problems (when I face a problem, I)

Get excited because every problem is a new challenge to overcome.

Face it and work to solve it, but I don’t enjoy dealing with problems.

Ignore it, hoping it goes away.

Blame it on someone else and don’t worry about it.

Planning (when thinking about the future, I)

Regularly set short- and long-term goals and identify steps I need to take to achieve those goals.

Usually have a good idea about what I need to do to be successful, but I don’t really set specific goals.

Have very specific plans for my life and expect to make all those future plans come true.

Live in the present and think things will work out fine in the future.
