What's your personality?

Personality traits fall roughly into 5 categories.

How would you describe your personality in these categories?

1. extroversion / introversion- a tendency to be outgoing and a risk-taker, or the opposite.

2. neuroticism- how well we deal with fear and anxiety.

3. openness- how creative and open to new ideas we are.

4. agreeableness- how well we get on with other people.

5. conscientiousness- how well we plan and follow through tasks.

This is my personality:

1. I suppose I would be described as an extrovert as I am outgoing, but I also have my introvert moments too, so I'm a mixture.

2. I don't deal with anxiety and fear at all well. My motto should be Don't Panic. I'm a born worrier, and have to train myself to stay positive.

3. I am creative as I enjoy painting, cooking, writing, and sewing. I strive constantly to be open to new ideas as I find it makes life more interesting and fun.

4.It's hard to say how agreeable I am. That's more for others to judge, but I think I get on well with other people. I've got the gift of the gab, anyway! ( maybe not such a good trait! ) I've also got a good sense of humour, and I can laugh at myself ( frequently ! )

5. I am conscientious, but I sometimes wish I were more organised. I have a tendency to be lazy about things I'm not interested in ( housework etc ) but if I think something is worth-while, I can stick at it with determination and see it through.

Can you describe your personality?

    Well here goes
    1.I am an extrovert,i think I became one to cover my shyness!!!! not
    2.I worry about small things and mostly about other people rather than myself.I am a great coper though, in times of crisis.
    3.I am keen to try new things but usually go back to my favourites.
    4.I can get on with just about anybody but for some reason naughty boys and old men really like me.
    5.I do things I like to do with 100% enthusiasm but ironing etc only if I must.Extremely reliable and punctual and at work i was one of the most committed.(I should maybe have been committed.)

    Exactly the same as you Joan on 123 and 5. No 4 I get on very well with others as I listen to their problems but also open my big mouth and say what I think at times too.

    A good sense of humour for a cycle path, anyway, Del :lol::lol:

    4.I can get on with just about anybody but for some reason naughty boys and old men really like me.

    Naughty boys grow up to be naughty old men. Maybe that is the connection :?:

    When I was teaching, I always liked the naughty boys because they showed so much character, and presented more of a challenge.

    I'm sure that illness can prevent people from fulfilling their full potential if they let it rule their lives. But there isn't just one way of reaching your potential. Sometimes it is a case of finding an alternative way, but it can be done.

    You and I are alike, so it would seem. I speak my mind too, and I have to reign myself in on occasions.

    OK, Toni, I will try to do it for you then :!: :D

    I think you are outgoing, very friendly, intelligent, supportive, animal-loving, with a strong sense of humour, most definitely beautiful, and nothing like a frog :!: :D Will that do :?:
