Charting Your Comfort Zone


Part I Assessing Your Core

Curiosity. On a scale from 1 to 10 I would rate my curiosity an 8. I would rate myself an 8 because I am the one who will go out of his way to say for example find out what someone is talking about. I would say that I am the questioning type eager for information you might say, so I put myself on the higher end of the scale with an 8.

Openness. On a scale from 1 to 10 I would rate my openness a 7. I rated myself a 7 which is on the higher end of the scale because I like to share with other people and I don't feel that I put up a barrier between myself and others. If someone asks me a question even if it is of personal nature I will tell him or her. The book refers to this as openness but I refer to it as having nothing to hide.

Risk Tolerance. I rated myself on the low end of the scale in this category. I gave myself a 4, because I don't feel that I am a risk taker I don't like to do things that are going to put me in danger or harms way. I like to live a safe and sheltered life, I guess that is why I have had the same job for the last 10 years and I am only 26 years old.

Energy. I gave myself an 8 on a scale from 1 to 10 for energy. I selected such a high number because I feel that I do have a lot of energy or vigor. I enjoy doing things and I don't like to just sit around and watch television (unless the Red Wings are playing).
