Free personality analysis

Thanks to Pedthered, I took a personality analysis test today using a colour selection technique. Pedthered and the hyperlink can be found by clicking on the link to the right to "Adventures of Archimedes". When you get there click on "What are you doing in there?" and you should arrive at Pedthered!

Pedthered also lists his report and his stress sources are remarkably similar to mine. Also like him, I find the report below sums me up rather well.

Your existing situation
Feels obstructed in his desires and prevented from obtaining the things he regards as essential.

Your stress sources
Has an unsatisfied need to ally himself with others whose standards are as high as his own, and to stand out from the herd. This desire for pre-eminence isolates him and inhibits his readiness to give himself freely. While he wants to surrender and let himself go, he regards this as a weakness which must be resisted. This self-restraint, he feels, will lift him above the rank and file and ensure recognition as a unique and distinctive personality.

Your restrained characteristics
Willing top participate and to allow himself to become involved, but tries to fend off conflict and disturbance in order to reduce tension.
Believes that he is not receiving his share - that he is neither properly understood nor adequately appreciated. Feels that he is being compelled to conform, and close relationships leave him without any sense of emotional involvement.
Egocentric and therefore quick to take offence. Sensitive and sentimental, but conceals this from all except those very close to him.

Your desired objective
Needs a change in his circumstances or in his relationships which will permit relief from stress. Seeking a solution which will open up new and better possibilities and allow hopes to be fulfilled.

Your Actual Problem
Feels insufficiently valued in his existing situation, and is seeking different conditions in which he will have greater opportunity of demonstrating his worth.

Over on my sister page, Bench Hamlet 2008, I have written a review of "Music Man" at the Chichester Festival Theatre, which the Best Beloved and I saw last night. Please read, if you can.
