Info
Choose one paragraph from group 1, and one more paragraph from group 2 – the one from each group that resonates most with you. The key to this two-letter combination appears under the paragraphs.

Group I

Paragraph A: I have tended to be fairly independent and assertive: I’ve felt that life works best when you meet it head-on. I set my own goals, get involved, and want to make things happen. I don’t like sitting around – I want to achieve something big and have an impact. I don’t necessarily seek confrontations, but I don’t let people push me around, either. Most of the time, I know what I want, and I go for it. I tend to work hard and to play hard.

Paragraph B: I have tended to be quiet and am used to being on my own. I usually don’t draw as much attention to myself socially, and it’s generally unusual for me to assert myself all that forcefully. I don’t feel comfortable taking the lead or being as competitive as others. Many would probably say that I’m something of a dreamer — a lot of my excitement goes on in my imagination. I can be quite content without feeling I have to be active all the time.

Paragraph C: I have tended to be extremely responsible and dedicated. I feel terrible if I don’t keep my commitments and do what’s expected of me. I want people to know that I’m there for them and that I’ll do what I believe is best for them. I’ve often made great personal sacrifices for the sake of others, whether they know it or not. I often don’t take adequate care of myself — I do the work that needs to be done and relax (and do what I want) if there’s time left.

Group II

Paragraph X: I am a person who usually maintains a positive outlook and feels that things will work our for the best. I can usually find something to be enthusiastic about and different ways to occupy myself. I like being around people and helping others be happy–I enjoy sharing my own well-being with them. (I don’t always feel great, but I generally try not to show it!) However, keeping a positive frame of mind has sometimes meant that I’ve put off dealing with my own problems for too long.

Paragraph Y: I am a person who has strong feelings about things — most people can tell when I’m upset about something. I can be guarded with people, but I’m more sensitive than I let on. I want to know where I stand with others and who and what I can count on — it’s pretty clear to most people where they stand with me. When I’m upset about something, I want others to respond and to get as worked up as I am. I know the rules, but I don’t want people telling me what to do. I want to decide for myself.

Paragraph Z: I am a person who is self-controlled and logical–I don’t like revealing my feelings or getting bogged down in them. I am efficient–even perfectionistic–about my work, and prefer working on my own. If there are projects or personal conflicts, I try not to let my feeling influence my action. Some say I’m too cool and detached, but I don’t want my private reactions to distract me from what’s really important. I’m glad that I usually don’t show my reactions when others “get to me”.
