Anxiety Level

I am slightly excitable. I have the ability to cope just fine in stressful situations. I feel the stress and frustration in pressure-filled situations, but I am able to overcome any negative feelings. I tend to worry slightly, but not enough to interfere with my activities. If I am experiencing a tough time in my life, I am able to stave off feelings of depression. I am able to think clearly and realistically in difficult circumstances, so that I can devise a sensible solution. Sometimes I can be impatient, other times I can be relaxed - it just depends on the circumstance and how much I can control it. People are not afraid that I will lose my temper. I am able to manage my emotions when necessary. When I do become angry, it is only because something is out of my power.

Self Control

I am moderately impulsive. At times I can be impulsive, but not to the point where I am jeopardizing work or relationships. I know when to follow rules, but I also know when to bend rules that are not set in stone. If my home or work space gets a little messy, I do not get upset or feel compelled to tidy up. I do not have to have perfect order in my life to feel good about myself or my environment. I tend to be more on the fun side of spontaneity, and enjoy being flexible with my plans and my life. In general, I prefer to make short-term goals rather than long-term goals.

Candid vs Considerate

I am very considerate. I truly value harmony in dealing with others. People recognize my friendly, generous, and helpful personality. My easy-going, agreeable nature makes me such a joy to be around. This is especially true in meetings or general conversations. The topic may become heated, but I am considerate of other's feelings and I will find a happy medium in order to placate those around me. This is because I have an optimistic view of human nature and I realize that if I trust people with their decisions that they are not trying to hurt me or take advantage of me. This special and rare quality is also seen in my altruism. I enjoy helping others. To me it is not a sacrifice; to me it is fulfilling to help others in need.

My Social Boldness

I am slightly introverted. I often say to people, "I'm really an introvert" and then they look at me funny. That's because I can be both Extraverted and introverted, but in social situations people see me as an Extravert. My enthusiastic and self-confident personality, plus my ease at talking to strangers gives the appearance that I am outgoing, even though I may attribute it to just being a friendly person. I find yourself at the center of attention, even though I may not actively seek that position. I am such a warm person that people like to follow me. Since I have no problem accepting my role as a leader when it is given to me. With my ability to flow easily from shy to outgoing, I may tend to easily flow from exciting adventures to relaxing times at home. This makes me a fun person to be around, because I do not always have to be on the go, yet I know there is more to life than reading and watching TV

Imagination is what made us Human

Whenever we dare to delve into the realms of *speculative* thought, however, no such restrictions to our ideas and imaginations apply. To the contrary, in our trying to comprehend the incomprehensible, imagination is as important as is knowledge -- if not more so, according to A. Einstein. Without creative imagination, in all likelihood, our species would still be squatting in caves picking nits and ticks from each other's pelts instead of embellishing the raw cave walls with works of art and thus moving on into the future. Indeed it was these cave paintings that set one of the milestones for human culture.

If there is any distinguishing trait that sets humans apart from all other species on the planet it is their powerful 'human imagination'.

Human Imagination (a mixture of powerful creative and learning imaginations) has allowed humans, in a relatively short period of time, (around 50 thousand years), to create thousands of cultures as well as millions of useful inventions and concepts, to discover and explore nature's secret worlds from the unbelievingly small microbe world to the astronomical world of black holes and galaxies. It has given mankind the power to discover many of nature's laws that guide everything in the universe. It has enabled mankind to travel to the moon, send robotic probes out to the edge of the solar system.
