PERSONALITY TEST: WHAT DO YOU SEE IN THIS PICTURE?

What's the first thing you notice on this picture?

Human mind is really complex and variable, rich of shadows and shades that are yet unreadable and impossible to understand. Anyway Psychologists developed few personality tests based on quizzies, videos or pictures that are pretty legitimate and truthful. One example is this figure that you see above.

The key point of personality tests is that they must be executed quickly, without reasoning too much on questions and following the first ideas or the first impact that each question might suggests to you, because otherwise your answers might be biased by reasoning or influences.

For example this test concerns our weaknesses that even if we try to hide for most of the time, they are still there, anchored to our deepest vital organs. Hiding them will not help us but identifying them might will.

This is the purpose of this test, figuring out which are your main weaknesses where you need to focus more on.

So, staring for a sec at the figure, what is the first thing you notice?

If you see:

A Tied Man: If the first thing you saw is a tied man, you are a person who has difficulty in making decisions.
You're afraid of making mistakes and you might stay still in the same place.

Perhaps you have reached a comfortable moment in your life, where you have covered your basic needs and, more or less, you have achieved some of your goals.

But you have to risk and leave your comfort zone, if you really want to exceed your limits and reach the top.
Remember that those who do not risk do not win.

THE FENCE: If the first thing that caught your attention was the fence, your biggest difficulty is meeting when it comes to relating to others. You are a little hermetic, and it is difficult for you to open your heart to others.

You may prefer the solitude of your home to living surrounded by people. But the truth is, when it comes to expressing your true feelings, you're a hard nut to crack.

This limits you when it comes to finding someone to share your pains and even find true love. You should try to be a little more open: do not be afraid of hurting yourself, you will always win more than you lose.

THE SHIP: If the first thing you saw is the boat, your biggest weakness is being too demanding.
Aspire to perfection, and it is not bad as ideal. But you do not accept less and this makes you too stressed.

In reality, nobody is perfect, not even you, for the simple fact that you are human. Try to act like one and not as a machine that must be 100% efficient. You are a person in the flesh and sooner or later the pressure you exert on yourself will have negative consequences.

THE SKULL: If the first thing you saw is the skull, your main problem is that you worry too much about things. There is a time when concern is healthy: it helps you to evaluate situations and to act with your head.

But you're living stuck in your mind and your worries.
Everything for you has to be analyzed a thousand times and this is disastrous.
So instead of acting for the best, you do the worst: you do not do anything.

What's the point of worrying about everything if you do not change anything? You must learn to relax and trust more: when the time comes, you will know what to do and you will face the problems.

And you? Does it worked for you?

I saw the skull first ....hmmmm
I used to worry about finances mostly but I am so much more free....it took years to learn to trust the universe and my strength.

I do not know how this works but this was true for me as well... and, yes, needs time to improve ourselves

Really interesting and actually nice to meet you 🌺
