Personality
"The qualities that really count, and the qualities that endure, are those closest to the center of a person's being." -Neil Clark Warren
Alright, you know the E-Harmony commercials on TV? Well, I went to the Website and took the "Free $40 Personality Profile." IT TOOK FOREVER. That is the LONGEST survey type thing I have ever taken. I had to stop and come back to it several times. I enjoyed taking though and actually, I would suggest that you take it too and then you can see who you are. It is interesting. Tell me what you think of my profile and if it fits what YOU think of ME.
I am really looking for feedback on this one guys, tell me what you think...
PERSONALITY PROFILE:
Overview---
>You have a strong sense of humor. You usually know when to lighten a difficult situation, amuse and entertain people.
>You have to be with people. This extends into the need to gain popularity, achieve social recognition and influence those people around you. The "bottom-line" is a strong people orientation.
>You have a strong feeling of optimism, considered favorably by most people around you. Your perception is that the bottle is half-full rather than half-empty.
Communication---
>One of your great strengths is your ability to communicate and talk readily. Since all strengths may be overused at times, you may sometimes talk too much.
>You are a natural communicator. You love to talk, offer jokes and make sure that everyone is having a good time. This trait is especially evident at functions and outings.
>You have a natural, outgoing style that some have labeled as the "natural salesperson." You are generally likable, talkative and socially assertive. Your primary intent is convincing or persuading people.
>You can generate enthusiasm in yourself and in other people. Your enthusiasm, often contagious, involves many people in a social activity who might not ordinarily become involved.
