Who am I meant to be?

Who Am I Meant to Be? The quiz Who Am I Meant to Be by Ann Dranitsaris is about seven styles that she identified if you are having trouble finding out who you are meant to be. "Striving styles" she called them, thoughts and behavior that satisfy you in different ways. She also says that when you discover your dominant style, you have the best chace at fulfilling your potential. After I took this quiz the style that I scored highest on was #6: Striving to be secure. The good attributes that style #6 described me having is a person someone can lean on, I'm loyal, and committed with relationships. Also, I'm careful with money, I strive to do what is expected of me, and defend traditions I care about. An example I can think of, of me being loyal is when I ask somebody to lend me money, and I say I'll pay them back a certain day I make sure I keep my word and pay the person I owed. A reason I could think of me being committed in my relationships is when I went out with a girl for two years and I didn't cheat on her. An example of me being loyal is with my friends and family. I'm there whenever they need to talk or are sick and not feeling well. Being safe is a good attibute that did apply to me. I know it is because I keep my family safe by locking all the doors and windows when it is time to sleep. Also, I always check on my little brother and ask my mom how he's doing and if he's okay or not. How I'm careful with money is I always save money from what I get paid and buy anew game for my Playstaion 3, which are usually $60. Another reason is I save money for whenever I want to go eat somewhere, and occasionally when I want to buy new clothes or shoes. One more attribute that matches with my personality is striving to do what is expected of me. A few things I can think of is I have to water the plants from the backyard everyday, make sure I take out the trash when the trash truck comes, and to do my homework of course. Also, there are some negative attributes that do sound like me and some that don't sound like me. The ones that do match my personality is I can become over controlling, rejecting any suggestions that doesn't confirm to my ideas of the way things should be. An example is when I'm buying new shoes, I need help picking some out and my friends try giving me advice but I don't take it and I keep looking for what I like. Something that doesn't sound like me is a result of such instability, I can spiral into a state of mind where everything seems catastrophic and my life will get worse. That attribute doesn't really apply to me because I always try to look for the positive things in situations and also I don't let surroundings put me down. Another attribute that doesn't match my personality is having the impulse to immediately say no. That doesn't because I think things out in my head when somebody asks me something to try to give them my best answer besides just no. Unless it is something that you absolutely need to respond no to. Some of the careers that the quiz picked for me are lifegaurd, teaching at a church, something in government, finance, the military, law enforcement, and product manufacturing. A few careers that I would take in consideration would be something in government, but mainly finance. I would like to work at a bank, first as an accountant than maybe work myself up to be a manager. Something in government would be interesting to me because you could get a good pay and learn a lot about how the government works. Also, I have thought about a career in the military as well because I wouldn't have to go to college, but I don't think I would end up doing it. I wouldn't consider having a career as being a lifeguard. I know how to swim but I don't think I would be able to get to the deep if somebody was drowning in the deep of the ocean. Overall, I think the quiz picked a good style that matched with my personality pretty accurate. A couple of attributes didn't sound like me, good and bad, but mostly it was my personality if I wanted to admit it or not. This quiz was helpful, I will now try to get a job at a bank and pursure my finance career. I would personally recomend others to take this quiz because it could help you really discover a few things about yourself. Some may take this quiz for fun, but others may take it to benifit from it if they are struggling to discover who they are, and to help them fulfill their potential.
