PL 101: The Big 5 (Discussion 3)

Closed-Minded Open to New Experiences (90%)
"You enjoy having novel experiences and seeing things in new ways."

Disorganized Conscientious (48%)
"You are neither organized nor disorganized."

Introverted Extraverted (56%)
"You are neither particularly social nor reserved."

Disagreeable Agreeable (77%)
"You tend to consider the feelings of others."

Calm / Relaxed Nervous / High-Strung (65%)
"You tend to become anxious or nervous."

Main things I learned about myself:
I did not particularly learn anything new but, I could confirm certain things about my own personality. I used to think that I am an introvert but, after taking the test I came to realize I am neutral, neither introvert nor extrovert.

My top 3 strengths are:
1. Openness:
Being open-minded is an excellent trait. Because of being open-minded one can have a good sense of understanding and creativity.
2. Neither introverted nor extraverted:
I think being socially neutral is a good thing as I enjoy "me" time but, I don't face trouble adjusting in people's company.
3. Agreeableness

The strengths I identified in both tests helped me see a clear vision of my personality. Being passionate and principled can definitely be good traits for my personal life. Not settling for "good enough" makes sure that I will not let anyone treat me the wrong way and no one will be able to break my mindset.

The strengths I identified on both tests can definitely bring me success in my professional life. Being a perfectionist, pushes me through my limits to give my best at everything I do. Being creative can help me through the journey as a listener as it gives me a strong sense of compassion and imagination which makes me understanding. My open-minded trait makes me open to learning and growing so, it is definitely suitable trait for 7 cups.

@justloveyoursmile

That is a really good evaluation on yourself, Good job

@justloveyoursmile Very nice evaluation! It is something like ideal for me, ideal of what I'd like to be. Completely don't want to feel desperate about my found weaknesses (as they are many), because firstly, I found my strengths even if they are little and not many and secondly, because I see that better people exist so I can have hopes and strive to be better than I was.

@justloveyoursmile

I love how you explained your evaluation! I really find it interesting when you talked about how your strengths applied to your personal life since you are right in that there are aspects of human personalities that need to be known and interpreted! :)

Glad there's a more valid and reliable test in this course than the MBTI.

1. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

To be honest, I've done the Big-5 and MBTI multiple times in the past so it's a bit hard to say what I've learned about myself. That being said, I've learnt that it is possible to be an agreeable person despite my "emotional instability". I would disagree that emotional instability is a bad thing.. on the contrary, I've become a more empathetic person as a result of my tussles with adversity. There is nothing wrong with being unhappy, prone to negative emotions, and anxiety. Anxiety has a protective function and is a spectrum. There's also the idea of depressive realism: I tend to see all shades of the world rather than just expecting myself to be happy all the time and I'm more prepared for difficult situations that elicit negative emotions because of my resilience from years of feeling unhappy often. When I do feel happy, I appreciate it a lot more. I also don't engage in toxic positivity. I see value in all of my emotions.

What are your top 3 strengths according to this test?

If I discount Emotional Stability as a strength, then they would be:

Openness: High scorers tend to be original, creative, curious, complex; Low scorers tend to be conventional, down to earth, narrow interests, uncreative. You enjoy having novel experiences and seeing things in new ways. (Your percentile: 99). I'm curious, have a wide range of interests, and am independent.

Agreeableness High scorers tend to be good natured, sympathetic, forgiving, courteous; Low scorers tend to be critical, rude, harsh, callous. You are good-natured, courteous, and supportive. (Your percentile: 98) I'm helpful, trusting, and empathetic.

Extraversion High scorers tend to be sociable, friendly, fun loving, talkative; Low scorers tend to be introverted, reserved, inhibited, quiet. You are neither particularly social or reserved. (Your percentile: 42)

I am a good mix of sociable and quiet. I can find peace being with myself and being with others. I'm both quiet, withdrawn and reserved; as well as outgoing, warm, and adventure seeking.

How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

1. My Openness and Open-Mindedness relate to my acceptance of people regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender identity, country of origin, health, and various other factors that one might discriminate against. I have made a wide range of friends across the world from diverse backgrounds.

2. My Agreeableness and Generosity gave helped me to make friends easily and relate to people empathetically. These traits mean I have a tendency to want to share happiness and positivity with people around me which could strengthen relationships

3.My Thoughtfulness and Ambiversion have helped me to form some kind of relationship with every person I meet. With the kindness I naturally emanate and my authencity, I am able to connect with people on a deeper level by expressing myself emotionally.

How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

1. Openness and Open-mindedness I am a problem solver who can always find a new approach to a problem and solve it. I can also make things interesting because of my curiousity, love of learning, and complexity. This will help me to be more tolerant of others.

2. My Agreeableness and Generosity relate to my deep sense of empathy and compassion. I always wish the best for others so I will make a conscious effort to ensure everyone I am leading is having their needs me. I am very contemplative when it comes to predicting how my actions my affect others in a mindful manner which is strengthened my by innate kindness and desire to help others. It will make it easier for me work with others since I am good natured and trustworthy, always willing to hear people out.

3. My Thoughtfulness and ambiversion will help me to find a good balance between co-operation and socialising AND drawing boundaries and spending time with myself to recharge.

Very well organized, Caring, And a strong leader :)

Question 3 How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

I am a trainee Vet, so all the above qualities are so important when working in vetinary care.. A lack of organisation or care could mean the loss of a patient which always devastates me.

I think all the qualities from the tests help me become the better me.

Question 4 How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

I pretty much asnwered this question above :) But as for cups I think as listeners and leaders a caring nature is a must! Also a strong leadership disposition keeps everything under control and respectful on the site, which is also very important.

@GlenM

1. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

I really did not learn anything about myself from this test that I did not already know or feel strongly about who I am as a person. i think the other personality test was better at revealing insight.

2. What are your top 3 strengths according to this test?

There are 5 categories. I am in the 99% for open minded, 86% consienctiousness, 98% extroverted, 92% agreeable and 10% negative emotionality meaning I am very calm and relaxed most of the time.

So, based on the characteristics associated with each category I would have to say the top 3 strengths are:

1. I see things in new ways. Kind of a think outside the box kind of gal. Like new, fresh ideas and new approaches.

2. I am good natured, forgiving and supportive.

3. I remain calm in high tense situations. I enjoy challenges, work well under pressure.

3. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

FAMILY/FRIENDS

Fun-loving and talkative...I have enjoyed long term friendships and I am close to my adult children.

4. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

CAREER

In a world that is full of "surprises", being able to remain calm and tolerant has been a huge factor in my personal life starting with my early career as an Emergency Medical Technician. I never knew what to expect on an emergency call and most situations were intense especially for the person(s) involved.

I am full of ideas and desire to stay ahead of ever-changing innovations. I find creative solutions to problems and I seek out new ways of doing things during my career as a computer technology expert for over 20 years. Helping others feel more comfortable about technology brings me joy.

Being good natured and supportive has brought me full circle in my latter career where I have fallen back on my psychology degree and crisis counseling certification by providing support to many individuals in a crisis moment and also becoming a listener here with this organization

7Cups Leadership

A natural born leader with gentle assertiveness, I enjoy enspiring others to be the best they can be and provide guidance and support when necessary. My greatest joy is to see a newbie blossom as their success grows.

@GlenM

This is my final result

Open-Mindedness
You typically don't seek out new experiences. (Your percentile: 48)

Conscientiousness
You probably have a messy desk! (Your percentile: 1)

Extraversion
You are neither particularly social or reserved. (Your percentile: 47)

Agreeableness
You are neither extremely forgiving nor irritable. (Your percentile: 51)

Negative Emotionality
You are generally relaxed.

1. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

A. I learned that I'm not as forgiving as I thought and when I thought of it now, I felt like that is true because maybe I forgive but sometimes it's a little hard to forgive and sometimes I feel somewhat careless about people around me in daily situations but I'm always there for them when they need me.

B. I learned that I'm calmer that I thought I am because sometimes I get really stressed whenever i start a project or participate in something very new to me

C. It said that I don't seek new experiences which is not accurate because I'm a very curious person who always searches for new opportunities and never says no to one

D. I though I was more introverted

2. What are your top 3 strengths according to this test?

. Open-mindedness

. Agreeableness

. Relaxed

3. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

I believe that my open-mindedness will help me accept others more no matter how different we are or how different our personalities are. I shall still respect their opinion and work with them while giving the team a lot of life. I think with my relaxation I will be capable of resolving anything without any conflicts and be able to control my emotions while letting my mind take the lead when it's needed. I think being imaginative will help me find creative paths and choices that could be not so ordinary which could help make everyday life easier and make me take the best decisions which already imagining all outcomes before they come to life. My curiosity drives me to great extends and makes me want to know lots of new information while never getting bored.

4. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

Open-mindedness will help make me a better listener who understands others and never judges their actions, beliefs and their personalities because they came to 7 cups out of all the other places in the whole world to feel listened and not judged. I sometimes encounter troubling, sad, frustrating chats here on 7 cups that I used to overreact to in the past but then I realized that I shouldn't put my emotions in place of another person's so I could understand them and emphasize with them. I learned that I can emphasize with members here just by listening to them and not literally putting myself in their place. My imaginary will help me find different ways to break the traditional and common ways of seeing a problem and could help me communicate with the member in a different way while trying to imagine their reaction if I said anything. My curiosity was the one that got me to this leadership program so I think this is a good reply lol

Open-Mindedness
High scorers tend to be original, creative, curious, complex

You enjoy having novel experiences and seeing things in new ways.

my comment about this: I would definitely agree with this! I like to think of myself as a very open minded person :)

Conscientiousness

Low scorers tend to be disorganized, undependable, negligent.

You probably have a messy desk!

my comment about this: well reading the comment about the desk made me cackle because when I look to my left my desk is so packed high with junk that you actually couldn't put anything on it without knocking piles over! I'm a really disorganised and messy person! I like tje idea of being organised but living like it is an odd concept to me! Much to my dismay, i can be quite a negligent person so I'd probably agree with this.

Extraversion
High scorers tend to be sociable, friendly, fun loving, talkative; Low scorers tend to be introverted, reserved, inhibited, quiet.

You are neither particularly social or reserved.

my comment about this: this kinda shocked me because I considered myself really introverted because of my social anxiety but I can also be quite extroverted when not anxiety isn't bad so perhaps when my anxiety isn't affecting me, my true personality is like this!

Agreeableness

Low scorers tend to be critical, rude, harsh, callous.
You find it easy to criticize others.

my comment about this: now this seems incredibly negative to get as a test result however i do know it to be true. I have a terrible habit of criticising others, especially in situations where my own stubbornness comes into play in things like discussions and debates which often makes me come across as rude etc. I rarely say things solely with the intent of hurting someone's opinions but I do find I value my own expression of opinion over the feelings of someone else and acknowledging this and the things people have said to me about me being quite harsh has enabled me to start working on bettering it.

Negative Emotionality
High scorers tend to be nervous, high-strung, insecure, worrying; Low scorers tend to be calm, relaxed, secure, hardy.

You tend to become anxious or nervous.

my comment about this: I definitely agree with this. I do struggle with anxiety as a disorder so when certain situations happen, it ofc triggers my anxiety but I've definitely gotten better over the years and I consider that an important contribution to becoming a strength vs a weakness

1. What were the main things you learned about yourself?
the new things I learnt about myself was im actually less introverted than I thought. I presumed I'd be strictly to the left which shocked me a bit!

2. What are your top 3 strengths according to this test?
my strengths with this test are probably the strengths that come more so from the creative aspect of things but I'd also say that although the test says I'm incredibly critical of others, the fact that I'm able to notice that and start working on it, to me is a strength because I can only improve it through my own choice and I am doing my best to!

3. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

they help me when it comes to helping others I think! I think being open minded makes it easier to me to talk to people.

4. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

I think my good strengths help me on 7 cups because it means I'm quite easy going in tje sense of providing some support! I think in my own separate career they would help in the sense of it being quite a hardworking job. It would provide me with a lot of openness about the news things that arise especially with it being a flexible career.

@GlenM

1. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

I again was rated as highly extroverted, in fact I rated the highest as Extraverted. I wasn't expecting this and reflecting back now, I can see how I would be considered more extravert than introvert and hope to embrace this quality of myslef a little more in the future and in the leadership role I am training for.

2. What are your top 3 strengths according to this test?

According to this test I am mainly Open-Minded, Extraverted, and Conscientious. Which is super cool!

3. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

Both tests offered me similar results and information, so I think it has l=highlighted to me my natural strengths and abilities I can use to help make the world a little better.

4. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

I think the open-mindedness and extraversion highlighted in both tests will make me a better Leader in 7Cups and in my furure career as I will be able to take charge and engage with those around me; I will not have a prblem jumping in to help or offer advice when asked. I also will be open and caring for those around me and I feel that is vital when talking about a leader - they need to be flexible and willing to accept new things and ideas.

@GlenM

What were the main things you learned about yourself? -

I learnt that I share the same personality type as many poets, writers, and actors. I'm a dreamer and an idealist

I also wondered why I always had to put everyone else above myself and help despite any detriment to myself. I learnt that this is because of my personality type and my kindness and generousity to help others no matter what.

Also I learnt that I am actually much more open-minded than I had previously thought.

What are your top 3 strengths according to this test? -

Open-Mindedness, Conscientiousness, and Organization & reliability

How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

Firstly, I can stop looking at my kindness as a weakness as I always perceived it to be - I can now confidently help others whilst knowing that is actually a great strength to give help without needing any kind of recognition or benefit.

Knowing now that my traits are actually strengths, I can grow into a much more positive person with new abilities to better myself and others.

I can engage much better with others because I know that I am being nothing but kind, and using my open-mindness to help anyone despite and opinions I may have on ther experiences or actions.

How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

I can use my creativity to think of new ways of engaging with my peers to provide even more support to those who may need it

I can use my organization to keep track of multiple projects I may be involved in easily, and still be able to fulfill my role as a listener

My loyalty and strong passion will allow me to remain dedicated to 7cups through any barriers and I will always strive to better myself and others at all times

Thanks all.

@GlenM

What were the main things you learned about yourself?

I am highly open-minded, extroverted, conscientious, and agreeable. I can't say I learned anything that I wasn't already aware of. However, I did find the conscientiousness surprising since I tend to be a bit messy. Other than that, all factors are pretty accurate.

2. What are your top 3 strengths according to this test?

1. Agreeability

2. Open-mindedness

3. Extraverted

3. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

Being aware of my strengths and weakness can help me come up with an efficient strategy to deal with any issues in my personal life. Polishing my strengths and managing my weaknesses would make me more confident and successful.

4. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

Exercising my open-mindedness, agreeability, and social skills to interact with the community to create a safe space while also polishing my leadership skills would help me as a leader at 7 Cups, and in my career later on.

@gigantCloud92 sorry to ask, but what would you call your top 3 weaknesses and how would you manage them?

I would strongly prefer to be more extroverted, more agreeable and less negative and more conscientious but unfortunately I am full of weaknesses and have not many strengths.

According to this test -

You probably have a messy desk - Can't argue with that. I have the worst desks

You prefer traditional and familiar experiences - This is something I feel is the opposite of me. I have done many things which are new and opposite of traditional experiences. I actually used to think that it is a character of mine that I admire.

You are neither particularly social or reserved- I tend to be social with people I am comfortable with and with anyone else I tend to limit my interactions.

You tend to consider the feelings of other

You aren't particularly nervous, nor calm - I tend to be very calm in many situations but in many situations my panic is unbearable.

I feel the strengths I learnt and will definitely use in my personal life is being more thoughtful. I do try to consider others feelings many times, but sometimes my emotions get the best of me. Also I must use my creativity more.

In 7 cups and personal life I feel this will help me better assess a situation and give myself confidence that I can do things and trusting myself to take a creative approach.

@wonderfulKermitKaTy you are like somewhere at the middle? how it feels?

In my opinion, I'm too much at sides I wouldn't like to be, but that's life and I have to find my strengths and grow them, build on them.

@windSpirit yes building on your strengths is a great and important thing. I feel as someone in the middle and social life and private life has a very distinct and strong separating line. I don't know how exactly but I feel that way.

The thing I learnt about myself is that I have a balance of my social and private life and I tend to be understanding.

1. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

I'm a bit not open-minded. I'm a messy person, full of criticism and too negative about myself. I'm also so much a quiet person.

2. What are your top 3 strengths according to this test?

Open-minded, trying to seek opportunities anyway. If I do things I do them with my full attention, passion and enthusiasm. I'm not too optimistic, should see thing as more realististic, hope not too negative, so I'm taking risks carefully.

3. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

I wouldn't give up completely. I keep trying to resolve my problems at any cost. I keep doing things anyway. And I found I should be less critisizing and more positive with myself.

4. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

I find any help just to resolve a problem if needed. My honesty help me to get along with people. Objectiveness and open mind help to resolve problems with less pain and less losses and create something new to serve and support others.

@GlenM

I learned that I'm rather high-strung, irritable, introverted, and open-minded. However, no matter how angry I might get, I never show it, so to others I am quite an agreeable person. My top three strengths are that I'm creative, curious, and original. The strengths I identified on both test can help me in my personal life, because it'll help me trust my ideas more, and it might lessen my self-doubt. The strengths on both test can help me on 7 cups because I'm creative with ideas, I'm curious to hear people's stories, I genuinely care (empathetic), and I'm independant, and don't require much supervision.

4. How can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in your career?

The strengths i identified in both tests would help me in a leadership role on 7 Cups and in my career is because everywhere needs someone that is open minded and passionate, I think being a leader, Its good to be passionate about what you're leading. Same with if you're going into a career, you'd want to be passionate about the subject of the career so you can keep going further into the role or career without getting uninterested or unmotivated. Being open minded, you can be a better leader since then you can be open to others suggestions for improvement. There's always things to improve on, sometimes it's hard for yourself to identify what needs that improvement so being open minded will help you get other perspectives on yourself and your situation, as with others and their situations.

Though being ENFP, I got lower score in Agreeableness, maybe due to me being STEM junkie and having developed Extroverted Thinking based on my MBTI, I prefer truth and pragmatism though being emotional and authentic. Also, both Extraversion and Neuroticism appeared for me to be on the middle, I seem to be a practical ambivert. To be continued...

My 3 strengths according to the test: Open minded: I’m an imaginative person who likes to brings new ideas to the table, this helps me to overcome stressful situations with practical choices, and for careers, this helps the institution for go forward and gets more progression. Critical thinker: This can solve most daily life issues, critical thinking is also required in the scientific field, this also can help others dealing with stressful situation to get the best solution. Ambivert: Balancing between sociality and isolation is beneficial for someone’s mental health, you can do both practicing your favorite hobbies alone and connect to your family colleagues at the same time.
