Hi everyone!
This exercise is a great opportunity to learn some new words to describe yourself and other people.
Be completely honest with yourself while you complete this exercise. Think about who you REALLY are as a person and choose the words that best describe you.
For each pair of words, choose the one that truly describes your personality.
For example, are you an adventurous person or a careful, cautious one? Do you like taking trips without doing extensive planning or do you need to make exact plans? Do you want to sky-dive or bungee jump or does the idea terrify you? Would you rather stay at home and read a book instead?
This is a fun exercise that will also teach you some new words. Do you know what it means if a person is aloof? Socially progressive? If not, look it up to find out which words describe YOU!
(If you’re wondering, I am a cautious person who is never aloof and I am also socially progressive!)
