Type me
1) What’s your biggest fear?
Not achieving my goals and ending up alone.
2) What’s your biggest desire?
To achieve everything I want and deserve, and to provide the best possible life for my family and myself.
3) What are you "the best" at?
Absorbing knowledge in general. Dealing with people and understanding their emotions.
4) How do you see yourself right now?
An intelligent, ambitious, successful guy, but with many problems to solve.
5) How do you see yourself 5 years from now?
I'm not sure. I can see more than one scenario. I can imagine myself still pursuing my entrepreneurial career, but with much greater growth. Or simply being happy wherever I find myself.
6) How do you express yourself?
By speaking. I'm direct, I say what I feel, and I express myself well. I don't hide anything and I consider dialogue an important tool.
7) How do you feel about those near you (family, friends)?
My family means everything to me. My mother is my greatest role model; I owe everything to her. The rest? Not as much. Some I respect, admire, and even love, while others I feel indifferent toward.
8) How do you feel about strangers?
Nothing. What should I feel? They're strangers; I don't know them.
On a deeper level, they are people like me trying to live their lives, each with their own universe inside their minds.
9) How do you deal with conflict?
Directly. I confront it and talk things through, and if necessary, even more intensely. If it can be resolved through dialogue, great. If not, then it's not my problem.
10) How do you deal with change?
I like it. I don't like a stagnant life; change is necessary. Staying still for too long makes life boring.
11) How do you deal with your emotions?
I rationalize them. I like feeling emotions, but I also like understanding why I'm feeling them and where they're coming from.
12) What do you hope to avoid doing or being? What values are important to you?
Being a liar or dishonest. I hate dishonesty. I want to do good for everyone around me, especially my patients. I don't like people who bully others and act superior; the collective matters. We all need one another.
13) What do you hope to accomplish in your life?
Above all, I want to live, not merely survive. I enjoy my work and my daily life, but I also enjoy experiencing the world and understanding it. I want to achieve everything I'm capable of and reach my full potential. I want to die knowing that I lived happily, even if only for a short time.
14) How do you act when others request your help to do something (anything)? If you would decide to help them, why would you do so?
I almost always help. I enjoy helping people. It makes me feel good to see others happy. (And it's also nice to have someone owe me a favor.)
15) Do you need logical consistency in your life?
Always. Logic is necessary for everything. If we're guided only by emotions, we end up in the wrong places.
16) How important is your image in regards to how others perceive you? Do you want to be perceived in a certain way? Does it bother you if you are perceived in some other way than the one you wish to be perceived with?
Very important. I adapt my behavior depending on the environment I'm in. When I was younger this was much more noticeable; nowadays, not as much.
17) How important are finances, security, and survival to you? This includes having sufficient resources, avoiding danger, and maintaining a fundamental sense of structure and well-being.
Essential. Security and finances provide quality of life, and that is fundamental.
18) What is your reaction and thoughts to others' rejection, criticism, and disapproval of you?
I feel bad, but I can't control how people react to me or how they feel about me. I can only control what is within my reach.
19) What is the importance of the concepts, ideas, and meaning behind things to you? Are you trying to make sense of your everyday life?
Life becomes automatic if it has no meaning. Everything has a reason, even if we don't know what it is.
20) What are your thoughts on expressing your vulnerability?
I am a man. I will always try to hide my vulnerability, but I'm working more and more on accepting that I can make mistakes too, and that I'm not perfect.
21) Would you consider yourself a jealous and/or possessive person? What do you think is the cause?
Not at all. If someone is better than me at something, I admire them greatly. I think it's amazing, and I want to get closer to them to learn how I can improve.
22) What makes you feel guilty? How do you deal and cope with such feelings? Do you seek to fix it, or do you dwell on them?
My past. I made many mistakes when I was younger. I'm learning to accept that it's over and beyond my control, but it still hurts sometimes.
24) How do you view and judge reality?
Reality is malleable. We create our own future.
