Personality Test??

http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are not looking merely for a girl/boyfriend - you are looking for your life partner. Perhaps you should be more open-minded about who you spend time with. The person you are looking for might hide their charm under their exterior.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education
You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.

The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

Gremlins

There is indeed a Gremlin in your head and he's out to make you miserable. Left to do his thing, he'll zap your health, foul up your relationships, ruin your disposition, dampen your creativity, hamper your productivity, drive you into low-down funks and wind you up into fits of anxiety.

How to Tame Your Gremlin

• Breathe! Your breathing is both a barometer and a regulator of your level of contentment.
• Remember that feeling good is primarily an inside job. Events occur around you. Your experience of those events occurs within the boundary defined by your skin.
• Simply Notice. Notice your thoughts, feelings, fantasies, memories and assumptions and notice that these are all different processes.
• Relax your pact to keep your act intact. In the words of Terry Allen, "Your ego may not be your amigo."
• Worry is a cerebral house of mirrors into which your gremlin ushers you. Worry and constructive thought are different processes. Worry is fraught with anguish, feels lousy and results in shallow breathing. Constructive thought involves knowing where you want to be, and taking the steps to get there.
• Your past is not attached to you. You may be holding onto it. But it is not holding on to you.
• A belief is just an opinion to which you've developed loyalty. Notice your opinions.
