I was reading this self-help book (Ben Sherwood’s The Survivor Club) about people who beats the odds when facing adversity.
Well the book comes with an online questionnaire, and I took it.
It seems I’m under the Survivor category.
The questionnaire outcome says:
Md, you are a FIGHTER.
After analyzing all of your answers and calculating 152 billion different possible outcomes, the Survivor Profiler confidently declares: You are a Survivor. You’ve got a well-defined survivor personality and tools to help you overcome any crisis.
Here’s a summary of the Profiler’s key findings:Survivor Type: FIGHTER
Your Top 3 Survivor Tools: PURPOSE, FAITH, FLOW
Basically I’m someone who you REALLY want to bring along when you’re facing a crisis.
So on that note, book me in advance ok :p
I guess I’ve always been a never-ever-give-up-to-the-death kind of person when challenged.
I love such hurdles in life, only then you’ll know how such critical times defines you.
More of the questionnaire outcome:
Md, you are a FIGHTER.
Your Survivor IQ tells you precisely which kind you are. After analyzing your answers, it’s clear that you’re a Fighter. To deserve this description, you don’t have to punch like Muhammad Ali or refuse to surrender like John McCain.
While fighters come in every size and shape, they share one critical trait: They attack adversity head on with purpose and determination. Against any odds, they’re driven to succeed and won’t stop till they achieve their goals.
When you’re a Fighter, you never stop attacking. Even at your lowest, you still find a way to bounce back and counterpunch.
You have a passion for life and seize every day with zest and zeal. You’ve got the willpower and determination to struggle, resist and overcome even in the face of formidable opposition.
Maybe you’re courageous and brave. Maybe you’re aggressive and competitive. Maybe you’re stubborn and unyielding. No matter, you get pumped up by the heat of battle.
You push yourself to be the best. You’re motivated by a sense of purpose or a calling greater than yourself. You’re here on earth for a reason that’s worth real sacrifice.
You’re resilient, tenacious and often feel stronger because you’ve endured hardship in the past. When you get knocked down, you bounce back again.
You’re indomitable, psychologically tough and you can endure more physical pain and suffering than most. You keep going when others have given up and you battle to the very end.
Above all, you’re a Fighter. To see what it really means to be a Fighter, consider the true story that appears in the Survivor Case Studies.
This is fun, you should try the questionnaire yourself at www.survivorprofiler.org.
