The test

The psychology test
This Saturday, we went through a psychology test which was said to be able to tell our characters exactly. I do not believe this kind of test before, and this one made the reason even sounder.
Out of my expectation, I should have an “I character”, which was featured by “wordy” and “persuasive”. In fact, I do not want to talk much, nor do I have any ability to persuade anyone to do anything. At first I doubt whether I have hidden my emotions too deep, just as many other friends said they did. Then I looked at myself into my soul, and found that was nothing more than a pack of lies. Seldom have I been interested in a topic, though I have been very upset about this, as I could not communicate with others who I want to be friend with well.
I kept telling myself that the test must have something wrong, but today, a friend came to talk about the test and said that it fit all his friends well. I am just a common one, and I think most theories that suit others work when they came to me. So I checked the result, and found that the “C” was very close to the “I”. Maybe that is what I really am.
Or maybe, I am just denying myself to be what I really want to. Aren’t we living in the restrictions created by what we experienced and what we are taught? Aren’t we keeping many prejudices about others and ourselves all the time? We are supposed to, and this sentence is. However what is prejudice, one cannot accept this conception without recognizing there is absolute justice.
So, I decided to hang the result no matter I was “C” or “I”. There should not be a rule on what I should be, I just do what I want.
We do things to be what we are, while not trying to be what we are by doing things. This word sounds persuasive, isn’t it?

  1. It was really an interesting test to determine what kind of person you were. But what I want to say is that the test can only tell you your type of getting along with other people, in other words it was EQ. It was not IQ. Actually it was not quite an accurate test, some guys cheated in this test because they wanted to be proved that they were such kind of people. So the test can make us think, how can you know who you were and how you could improve your ability to get along with other people. I think there are two important points, being sincere and having our own abilities to handle emergency. I couldn'd agree a point that the lecturer raised in the test which was that we all should meet bosses' requirement and pretend we were the very people they wanted. Time may be the most powerful tool to test a person's quality and it is always too difficult to cover your natural quality and to become a new yourself. Isn't it ?
