I normally don't do things like this, but this one was espcially fascinating to me. If you have 30 seconds, I'd love it if you took the time to fill this out!

I described myself from a fixed list of adjectives, and am asking my friends and family members to describe you from the same list, then comparing the grid of differences.

Here is the list (it's SUPER easy to fill out):

I'm always fascinated with the concept of everyone seeing and perceiving through their own eyes- not only considering the world in general, but our sense of who we are. As human beings, we have this innate need to be loved and accepted- so no matter what anyone says, we all at some level ponder, "I wonder what he or she thinks about me?" Some of us more than others, of course.

When I worked in HR, I was talking with my boss at the time. She had been in the field several years and was just a darn smart woman. She said that whenever it came time for employee's yearly self reviews, most often the people who were the high achievers had this sense of humility. They'd rate themselves lower than they should on things they really excelled at. Meanwhile, people who were either the problem employees or the people who just weren't very hard workers due to abilities or choice or whatever always rated themselves REALLY high and thought they deserved huge raises. I always thought that was fascinating, and is just one glimpse of one part of life in which people's self-perception can be off.

With that little tidbit shared- please take a few moments to fill out my form! Thank you.
