Are You on the Right Path? Quiz

1

How do you feel when you wake up in the morning?

All right - tired, but I'll likely shake that off around noon
Happy and excited. I can't wait to start the day
Uneasy and nervous, like something bad might happen
Content. I slept well, and now I'm ready for a new day
Depressed. I can't get out of bed, and just want to sleep all day

2

Do you have plans for the future?

I'm going to have a cookie in about five minutes
Oh, yes, I've planned everything there is to plan!
I'm confused about what I want, so I can't plan anything well
I know what I want out of life, but I don't like to plan things too much. I like to leave room for luck and fate
I don't have a future. I stare into the bleak emptiness every morning, and wish it would just end

3

Have you ever stood up for something you truly wanted?

Yes, many times, even when my entire family was against it. It was tough, but worth it
Stand up? I don't want to stand up! Just leave me alone, so I can cry under my covers until I fall asleep again
I have, and I would again, if it was something I wanted with all my heart. No matter who or what was standing in my way
I've never wanted anything that controversial. I usually settle for cookies, or candy
I tried to once or twice, but it's hard, especially when people I care about and respect are against me

4

What is most important?

Making enough money to get by
Getting exactly the right job, husband/wife, house, etc., so that I can live happily ever after
Nothing is important. Life is one big, fake charade of unimportant crap that gets thrown at me. Nothing matters
My family is important, and also, what the people I care about think of me
Life is important. Everyone who makes your life special is, too. The quest for whatever your dream is the most important

5

What is your dream?

To find my dream
Oh, my. Well, first, there's the perfect job that I know is waiting for me. Then there's Prince Charming/the woman of my dreams, three kids, a dog, a goldfish, and a white picket fence to frame it all!
To be accepted by those I love, and to be able to get by doing what I love
To win the lottery and never have to do anything ever again
Dreams are for people who care, watch me care

6

Did/do you enjoy school?

I loved it - straight As, baby!
I dropped out and got a job, but now I'm uncertain whether I should go back
It was educating, but also mind-numbingly boring, with tendencies to kill one's soul
I hated every bleeding second of that inferno, and I dropped out, and I'm never going back
I skipped most of it, and couldn't be bothered to do homework

7

Do you like your life the way it is now?

My life is good, but there's always room for improvement
My life will be perfect once I get everything I dream of. Soon!
I'm sort of bored, and I have many ideas, but I have no clue where to start, or if I can even make them materialize
It's OK. I don't like change much, so I don't mind if it stays like this
I hate my miserable life

8

Do you have any special skills, like a great singing voice or cooking skills, talent at crafts or math, etc?

I guess I'm good at something, I just don't know what
I have one or more skills that I plan to use in the future
I'm great at planning and doing things, and at getting my way
I have no skills other than to feel pain
I can whistle the witches dance by Paganini

9

How did you feel the last time you applied for a job?

I don't apply for jobs. My parents do it for me, and then they make me go. I hate working
Man, I don't want to do this
I was particularly happy because I made sure I time-lined my resume and put a brand-new headshot in with the application. I also told them the story of my life, so they would KNOW that I was the right one for the job!
Why do I need a job? I could just stay home and watch TV
I hope I get it - this might be my big break

10

Are you ready to grow up, be an adult, and deal with the responsibility?

Oh, yes, I've learned to manage my finances, I've read up on child psychology and how to raise kids, I've taken cooking classes, self-defence classes, everything. I'm SO ready!
Ahhh, don't say that word near me. I'm going to be a kid forever, and nothing my parents do can change that! They can kick me out, but I'll just sleep in a tent
Not really. I feel like I just got out of my teens, or am still in them, and that the pressure is on. I'm unsure what to do, to be honest
I'll always be a child at heart, but I know I'll manage any situation, and deal with problems as they come
I don't care

11

Do you believe there are signs that point you to where you are supposed to go in life?

That's a stupid question. Signs. I'm not a crazy person. Now go away, and let me watch TV in peace
Oh, yes, and they all point in favor of my master plan of my life
If there are signs, I can't see them through my tears
Sometimes I feel like something might be a sign, but other times, I doubt they're real. Perhaps it's because I want them to be real
I believe there are signs out there that point you in the right direction, but that you still make what you want to out of life. It's like when someone gives you direction or advice, you can take it or leave it

12

How do you cope with tragic experiences?

I eat ice cream, then I strategize. It's best to have a plan to counter sorrow
I allow myself to revel in the dark emotions for a brief while. Then I move on, and try to see the good things in my life, and appreciate what I have to get me through the bad times
My whole life is a tragic experience. I hide and hope someday it will go away
I watch sad movies, eat junk food, cry buckets, and then move on
It's hard to cope. I want to quit, but there's always a spark of hope, and I feel like the hope is weighing me down rather than helping me. It won't allow me to let go, and that's hard

13

Do you have an idea of where you'll be in 10 years?

I hope the world will have self-destructed by then
I have dreams and plans, but they could all be gone by tomorrow. I just try to plan for tomorrow and live for today
I don't like to think that far ahead
I haven't thought about it, to be honest. I'm still figuring out this year
Yes, that's the time I have given myself to find the perfect husband/wife. I only have 3 years left to find the right job

14

Do you believe that you have a purpose on this planet?

I don't know, I sort of hope so, but I don't know for certain
Yes, I believe that everyone has a purpose
I don't think about that kind of stuff
Yes, but I'm special
No

15

How do you feel about your parents?

I love my parents, but they worry too much about me. I think they fear that I'll never become anything
I love my parents. They think I'm a princess/prince, and they would move the sun for me if I asked them nicely
They don't understand me. They most likely don't even like me
My mom cooks me food, my dad buys me stuff. They both nag a lot
I love my parents. We have our differences, but they try to support me, even when they don't quite get what I'm doing

16

Trouble and hardship are there ...

... TO RUIN MY PERFECT PLANS!
... to make the good times worth it, and to make you a stronger person. The more you go through to get where you are, the better it will feel to get there
... so that you can overcome them
... just to torture me
... I don't know. It seems useless to me

17

Do you believe that, beyond there being a purpose with for life, every individual has their own destiny?

I have always felt like there was such a thing as destiny. I just haven't found mine
My future husband/wife and I are meant to be, it's destiny. Also, that huge house with the pool is my destiny
My destiny is to get to finish this TV show in peace. Quit bugging me!
I don't believe in anything anymore
Yes, I think there's something great and big waiting out there for every person. For some, it might be love; for others, a specific job, or something else entirely

18

As a kid, did you know what you wanted to be?

Yes, I knew I wanted to have a perfect life
Yes, I was fairly sure of what I wanted. I've always been that way
I had a clear idea of what I wanted, but somehow, I forgot that it was there. Now I'm not certain it's what I want, or that I could even do it
I can't remember. Most likely just something similar to the other kids
Yes, but they were silly daydreams, and I could never go back to believing in them

19

Do you talk about your dreams and plans with your family and friends?

I don't have friends
Sure, I talk about it a great deal. I can't keep it in because I'm excited about my future and what I'm doing. My family and friends are supportive for the most part, and they also give me great ideas and tips
I don't feel comfortable talking about it. My parents tend to get upset, and just want me to get a job or go to school. I do talk to my best friend, though
All the time. I even printed out my 20-year plan for all of them, so they could keep track
No, we prefer to talk about fun stuff

20

When you go to work or school, you feel:

I try to avoid going there, but when I eventually do, it can swing either way. Sometimes it's cool because I get to meet my friends. At other times, it's dreadfully boring.
Uninspired and bored, like I know I'm in the wrong place, but am also frustrated because I don't know where the right place is
I feel good. I know I'm doing the right thing, even though days vary, and it's not always just fun and games. I feel like I'm in the right place
I only go when they make me, and it feels wretched
Ambitious, motivated, full of fire ... I will get straight As/a promotion - I can feel it!

21

Do you ever think of picking up and leaving?

NEVER! I have no time to dilly-dally. I need to stick with the program
Not really. I'm comfy where I am
Sometimes, but then I remember that life is as cruel everywhere you go, and it wouldn't make a difference
Sometimes, but only when I feel adventurous - never for good because I like my life too much!
All the time ... like perhaps traveling and refreshing my surroundings might give me a boost, or an idea of what to do with my life

22

Do you keep a diary?

Sometimes, if I'm bored/I don't bother, to be honest
What's the point? Why would I want to document my miserable life?
I document every detail of my life, with Polaroid shots on the side for further explanation. One day, they will want to make a movie of my life, and I want it to be perfect!
Yes, I like to document special events/Yes, when I feel the need to get something off my chest
I do when I have something to say, but mostly about how I'm feeling, rather than what I do during the day

23

Which is your favorite of these settings?

A bed of ice and snow under an immense, lonely, dark-blue sky
Right here, having fun with all the people I love and care about most
An arcade. Many games to distract me
A hot new nightclub where all the most important people are
A far-off country. Perhaps Thailand, or a beach in Mexico

24

Have you ever fallen in love?

I'm unsure. I've liked someone a great deal, or have been in a relationship that didn't work out
I can't love - I'm empty
I'm waiting for Mr./Ms. Right, so it doesn't matter how I feel about anyone else. If he/she isn't up to my standard, he/she is not the right one
Yes, I have
Nah, I like to keep it casual

25

Do you have many friends?

I don't have many friends
I have no friends
Well, I have three best friends, and then just people who "know me" because I'm like, a celebrity
I have many buddies to hang out with
I have enough friends to keep me happy, and am close to all of them

26

If the choice were between having it your way and hurting someone badly, or compromising. Which do you choose?

It depends on the issue. Sometimes it's necessary to hurt people, but most of the time, I'd try to avoid it
I'd likely compromise, even if I didn't feel right about it
Pfft, I don't care
NEVER GIVE AN INCH! This is MY LIFE!
I never get my way, anyway

27

Do you feel trapped by the choices you make, or do you believe you could change your mind whenever?

I don't make decisions
I could change my mind whenever I want to, but I still have to be careful when I do so. If I keep changing my mind, I won't be trustworthy
It's hard to change my mind after six years of studying a subject, or saying yes to a proposal, etc. I might try, but I guess I do honestly feel like decisions etch your path in stone
CHANGE MY MIND! ARE YOU CRAZY? That would ruin everything. No, I have a great life ahead of me, and a bright future. Why would I want to ruin that?
I can't change my mind. I can't even have a mind, or my parents would kill me!

28

Do you fear failure?

Agh! I've already failed at life! What else is there to fail at?
Failure is my friend. It's the reason I never have to do a thing. Even my family fears my failure
AHHH! Don't ever mention failure to me. I have no time for it. I CAN NOT fail!
Yes, I'm scared that if I try, I'll fail, and then everyone who said I couldn't do it would have a party laughing it up
No, I know I could fail, but I don't fear it. I try as hard as I can, and in the end, that is what allows me to be proud of myself

29

Do you believe in yourself?

I know I have much to offer, but I'm not certain how to let it out. I'm not good at communicating with others, and I never know where to start on my projects ... or something always gets in the way
I am a star ... see me shine. Ain't I pretty? And so talented, too!
I can do anything if I put my mind to it and work hard. I can be spectacular, although I do have my weaknesses
I'm fine. I get through school and work OK. People don't hate me. I'm not completely stupid or anything
No, not at all

30

Do you feel like you have a sense of direction in life?

No
I already told you - it's all planned out!
I know where all this is going. I'm going to do what my parents tell me, and I'll end up in a boring job like everyone else. I'll be fine, and I'll marry some average normal girl/guy, and have a couple of kids or something. And I will grow old and, well, eventually die. That's just how it goes
I feel like I know I want something, but I'm uncertain what it is
Yeah, I have one or more things that I want to do, and I'm working hard at achieving my goals

"You are a hero and an example to all. You know what you want and where you are going, good for you because you are on the right path. You won't let anyone tell you how to live your life but you are also considerate of those you care about. You know what is important in your life and you go after the things you want. You will probably have very few regrets in your life and that's a great way to live. Keep it up and you will live your dreams. I wish you well." Aww thank you, kind words :)

I thought you did a great job coming up with questions and answers that were really revealing about people, but it seems like you have the same answer no matter how we answer. For example, I have no goals in life, yet my answer seemed to be all about that. I would suggest having more variety of answers.
