Nothing like deciding where to get the next meal, always takes me a minute.
Usually i ask "where do you want to go?"
I am a C high D. But really i got a +7 on the C scale and a +6 on the D scale, so i think im an even mix of both. Every now and then i am quick to decide something and power it through, usually its something absurd but i get everyone onboard anyway. Then half way through (half way to Connecticut at 4am) i have to ask others why nobody challenged my decision!
Other times i am troubled by what might happen, have i considered all the alternatives, have i thought of all the details. Then i double and triple check all my work, it drives me mad!
All in all i think the test had me spot on, i wish i was a bit more decisive though. That +1 on the Conscientious scale gets me pretty bothered. Thats why when i sense i am thinking too much about a decision, going back and forth i just try to take a deep breath and pick. Just pick it and stick with it. My 1880 silver dollar comes in handy, especially when i decide to go against the outcome of the coin, then i know what i really want to do.
I think the downside to tests is that they limit people, and they also limit what others think of you. Who knows how one might react in a given situation, but after a test like this in the corporate world, some might never get a chance to prove themselves otherwise.
In the stranded scenario people that are high S would be good to have, since they would be team players. People that are high C are also necessary because they would think before acting, and in a survival situation, you dont get second chances, so its good to sit down and think. High D might be a problem because charging forward could have very negative outcomes.

Much like a few other people, i have been putting this assignment off for as long as a could.
Out of all the things i do on a daily basis, the only thing that always brings a smile to my face is driving.
What i want is to learn to control a car to the n-th degree. I want to race cars as well, unfortunately im a bit behind, most start out when they are toddlers racing go karts, so maybe i will never be a professional race car driver, but to have great car control, well that's still possible.
example:

I have already started going to driver education programs which get me out onto real race tracks with semi professional instructors that teach the finer points of driving a car. all i need to do now is start taking it a bit more serious.
-Need to get rid of my current car, too expensive, and get something more track oriented, light, fast and cheap.
-Start saving up for a school that will allow me to get a racing license.
-Continue going to driver education programs.
-Start branching out and try different types of car sports, maybe try drifting or rally, so far i only have track experience.
I was thinking, i dont have many visions, or goals, but this is something that i completely overlooked simply because this isnt just a dream, its something that i am doing.
