The Four Tendencies Quiz by Gretchen Rubin
One of the daily challenges of life is: “How do I get people—including myself—to do what I want?”
The Four Tendencies framework makes this task much easier by revealing whether a person is an Upholder, Questioner, Obliger, or Rebel.
Johari Window
Personality tests don’t measure everything. For example, none of them measure how funny you are. Humour is an incredibly valuable trait, but you may not realise you have it.
One of the most eye-opening things you can do is ask friends or family what they think about you. By plotting yourself perception against the perception that others have of you, you’ll gain much greater insights into your personality.
The ‘Johari Window’ can be completed with a friend. All you need is a piece of paper, and the instructions.
