To take the test, read each scenario and think about how you would respond. Mark your choice based on your confidence that you would choose one option over the other.
 

You’ve been asked to lead a new project at work, but it’s outside your usual area of expertise. You’re nervous because of the steep learning curve but don’t want to pass up this opportunity.

Focus on my strengths and ask more experienced team members to take on the parts of the project that are unfamiliar to me. Take on the challenge myself, using it as an opportunity to learn new skills, even though it will mean putting in extra work hours.

 

You and your partner have been planning a big move to another city for months. Now that the time is approaching, you’re feeling increasingly anxious and unsure about leaving behind your current life.

Focus on the practical aspects of the move and avoid discussing my doubts with my partner, preventing unnecessary worry. Discuss my nervousness with my partner and discuss how we can support each other through the transition.

 

You and your partner have different approaches to budgeting. You tend to be more cautious, while your partner prefers to be more flexible with spending.

Suggest that we manage our finances separately to avoid conflicts over spending priorities. Propose creating a joint budget that considers both of our approaches, aiming to find a balance that works for us.

 

After getting married, you and your partner realize that your schedules are very different. One of you is a night owl while the other is an early bird.

Discuss adjusting our routines to find more time to connect, even if it requires us changing some habits. Suggest that we keep our routines as they are, focusing on maximizing the time we do have together.

 

You’ve been consistently working late nights to meet a deadline at the end of the next week, but your productivity is starting to decline due to fatigue.

Take a break or finish earlier one evening, trusting that a refreshed mind will help me work more efficiently the next day. Continue working late, believing that pushing through is necessary to meet the deadline, even if it’s tough.

 

Your partner wants to invite their close friends over for dinner on the weekend, but you’ve been feeling mentally drained and crave a quiet evening alone.

Agree to the dinner plans and try to push through my fatigue, recognizing the importance for him to socialize with friends. Suggest postponing the dinner, explaining my need for a quiet evening to recharge and propose a new date for the gathering.
