DISC

About 15 years ago, I took the DISC test for the first time and was convinced that I was a SC personality. In short I was a structured person who didn't like risks.

I retook the test recently (NOT the same exact test with the same questions) and found out I am now more DC. The same structured person but this time with some dominance.

I embrace change. I hate corny silly one-liners like "if you fail to plan, you plan to fail" but I totally agree with "the only constant in the world is change". I don't hate this one as much.

But to go from S to D in 15 years is almost like going for an ah gua surgery where you still keep original parts but you add more stuffs to satisfy all worlds. I still remember how it was like 15-20 years ago. I definitely know how I am right now.

The wife said maybe I WAS a DC person already. Just that I behaved more S "outside of home" and/or now that my english has improved since 15 years ago, I understand the questions better and/or, know myself better.

Perhaps.

On a related note, I took a colour personality test too and I am declared a Red, which basically means D if translated on the DISC scale. I wished I was a green really coz that is my favourite colour and also very trendy what with green initiatives all over the world. Global warming is real.

Personality tests can be fun. It is a bit like opening an ang bao. You know there is money inside, just don't know how much. It is sort of getting an identity. But being defined like this can be dangerous too. What if I really am a DC by nature who thought I was an SC and so convinced that live my life out going against part of my nature? I will feel confusingly unhappy thinking, "I don't like what I am doing but I know this is how God made me. So I will suck it up and just do it like the shoe ad says." (yeah, Nike commercials were really hot 15 years ago.).

I wonder what I will be 15 years from now. DI for Delusional Idiot?
