About DISC (AW)

It didn’t mean a comfortable time for us in Today’s morning, because we had to get up early to catch the bus to NTU to have our DISC test. What is DISC test? It is a test which can tell yourself, your personality. After you know it, you can dig out your potential and it can help you build relationship with others.
When we entered the LT1 of NTU, it was a little late. Firstly our lecturer told us some background about this text and introduced how to go for the text. Everyone was distributed a booklet which was printed 24 subjects. Every subject had four options, I would choose the most one I will do and the least one I will do in every subject. After I finished my work, I turned to the next page. My answers had appeared on this page because the first page was carbon paper. I counted the results in every frame and filled the form with these results.
By depicting three following diagrams, I got the answer at last. I am “S” that means I am a composed and steady person. I think the answer is very interesting and precise. Though the people around me think I am “I” that means I am an active and influential person, the fact was I know I am really S inside. I like to listen to other’s words and I can understand other very well, I desired to be a member of a team and be loyal to my team.
Our lecturer informed us that we could use the answer to improve ourselves, I couldn’t agree any more. Generally, I refuse to change maybe a little conservative, and I am too sensitive to others’ comments about me sometimes. I have focused on my personality and realized these facts for a long time since I was in my high school. I can see my own style often brings some problems to myself, too worry about something may happen. I can still remember something caused by my personality made me very sad.
Recently I am reading a book, The 7 habits of highly effective people, which was written by Stephen R. Covey. Here I am in Singapore, I have and will have many things which can help me broaden my horizon. I want to challenge myself however the most I think is change myself.

  1. There is always some difference between the impression we leave on others and our self-image inside, and you can be outspoken and influential among your friends while deep inside you have the personalities of steadiness and sensitiveness. You are popular among us. Just be yourself, maintain your characters and develop your full potential.

  2. Your characters are very good, I think. As one advertisement says, men have many aspects. To be honest, you are a good combination of differnt characters. Yesterday's test was really very precise. I am a pure "C".What he said about pure "C" was exactly the same with my characters. But in our society, I think a pure"c" can't survive very well because of the way of his speaking which is always too direct and easily hurt others. Maybe I also want to change a bit! Come on!
