I guess you’ll have to read the author’s book to find out how to mesh all this people-focused stuff with your introverted nature.

I’m an introvert too, and was tagged as “teacher,” so maybe the test focuses on the external parts of our persona. Or maybe you are just completely off-base in your self-evaluation!

My take is that we are all multi-faceted and multi-gifted — “tests” like this simply help point out our “leanings.” Even introverts can be optimistic, highly-motivating leaders! We just do it quietly.

But these are “people-focused” roles. How do they fit in with my introspective, introverted life? My joy of creating (inhabiting) the imaginary worlds where my protagonists dwell? Of spending hours (and hours) reading and writing?

Guess I need to get a copy of the book!

I took the StrongLife Test and my results state that my lead role is a Motivator and in reading about that role it described me to a tee. I am an optimist by nature, and I’m always ready to jump in and support, motivate and get things going. In that role I have occassionally felt “sucked dry by emotional vampires” but I’m learning to set boudaries and use the word “no” more frequently.

My supporting role is that of Teacher, which is also totally me! I love to learn and share what I learn with others. I’m always ready to provide direction and guidance to those who ask for it and believe people are capable of more than what they think they are.

This was really interesting and fun and gave me a lot to think about, thanks for posting this on your blog.

It’s neat that the test results can affirm that you’re on the right track in terms of following your passion and giftings. When I took the test, I was tempted to overthink some questions and not answer as honestly as I should, but I resisted the temptation and just went with my initial gut response, no matter how un-politically correct it seemed.
