I am impressed to see my personality test results. As mentioned there, I am an architect. A fact that I won’t deny and will proudly accept because of the strength and the confidence released by this character. We architects are a little above the melee. Still as presented on the test, ‘’Architects believe that, through willpower and intelligence, they can achieve even the most challenging of goals. But they may be cynical about human nature more generally, assuming that most people are lazy, unimaginative, or simply doomed to mediocrity.’’ This only one face of the iceberg, the other side of the coin is too heavy.

When it is about beliefs, we architect, draw our strengths or motivations from our self-esteem and the credits we give to our sense of making decisions. Our goals are meant to be achieved that for any price and failure is not an option. Everything that could hit our self-esteem has to be known in advance and our foresight takes precautions before it happens. We are ambitious and meticulous which explains our constant conquest for perfection. Sloppy work is not acceptable, the job to be done have to meet our satisfaction or won’t be started at all. Our curiosity helps us to gain knowledge and enhances our capacity to master a job. We have the strong belief that everything that you learn and open your mind to, you can do it. That’s why we won’t give up in front of any obstacle. Like what, walls are meant to be climbed, chains are meant to be broken, statical beliefs are meant to be contested, – contradictory brings evolution.

I agree with this test. It describes perfectly my personality. I am ambitious and display some intelligent abilities which are helpful in workplaces. My work ethic has helped me to overcome many challenges in the real-life and work environment. I look darky but nice interiorly. Displaying emotions in any situation is not a habit, but that doesn’t mean I don’t feel empathy for people. Maybe it is a default, but I like hiding my emotions and feelings.

Socially closed because I am focused on what I have judged matters to me. I won’t spend my time on useless things my major projects are on the table. A reason why, I am too demanding of myself, that I demand the same rigor and the same motivation from others, and it ruins our relationships. I can be seen as overweight for them. A misunderstood who passes for the executioner in human relations. Besides, I won’t feel rejected when I am not part of any group of people, as long as I keep examining my life and feel that I am still on the path of success. Everyone has his criteria to determine success, but mine result from the degree of achievement of the goals I set for myself. Quiet and self-isolated, I have gained the habit of staying alone. I have created my world where ideas, goals, and thoughts are haunting me all the time. Exteriorly, the only thing that matters is reading the information, taking care of my family, and being helping others without interfering in their lives.

This kind of test can be useful in a social or psychological setting out of the work environment. Because, for instance, architects know the differences between situations. Whether we are in a workplace, in society, or when it is about meditating in our personality. We calculate the challenges, requirements, and responsibilities of any current situation and have the ability to adapt to the behavior that goes with it. We have to avoid being judgmental or stereotyping people because of these kinds of personality assessments. Energy, experience, work ethic, and academic curriculum, these things among others, could determine the criteria for hiring one.
