Dienas gaišākā doma

Mērķis dara skaistākus līdzekļus.
Mīlestības kristāldzidrajā ūdenī jāpeldas veselīgi kailam, jo būtu tīrais grēks turēties pie aizspriedumu glābšanās riņķa vai vecu aizvainojumu sanestajiem gružiem...

Dienas gaišākā doma

Sātanam nav izskaidrojuma. Uz to ir jāskatās kā uz nepieciešamu Visuma sastāvdaļu. To ignorēt ir bērnišķīgi, bet skumt par to ir bezjēdzīgi. /Somersets Moems./
Tas, kurš atriebjas, dažreiz nožēlo nodarīto, bet tas, kurš piedod, – nekad. /Aleksandrs Dimā./

Career test

I made such type of tests also before but every time the results vary a bit.
The most surprising part - artistic orientation, also social orientation was developed lately. :)

Career test results

The test has determined 3 career suitability types, along with the corresponding scores. Taken as a whole, they characterize your career orientation.

A

Score: 51


(artistic) career orientation

Typical personality traits: unique, original, interesting, sensitive, expressive, creative, imaginative, independent, open, complicated sense of the world, expects approval and recognition.

Activities: Artistic types like to express their individuality in different materials and forms, like words, sounds, acting, dancing and painting. They need freedom of action and movement in time and space in order to sense the world.

This type of people tend to take a jump into the unknown and explore new artistic means. They are able to adapt in new situations. Artistic types often dislike activities that are orderly, systematic or bureaucratic.

Typical fields of work: painting, directing, graphics, sculpture, applied arts (ceramics, glass, etc.), architecture, design, music (incl. church music, popular music, folk music), acting, dancing.

Spare time activities: reading, drawing, sketching, painting, participating in art events, attending concerts and plays, musical activities.

S

Score: 46


(social) career orientation

Typical personality traits: humanist and friendly, patient, tactful, understanding, kind, helpful, cooperative, supportive.

Activities: Social types prefer activities that include socialising and communicating with people. They enjoy satisfying their curiosity and increasing intercultural communication skills, learning new languages and discovering the world. They are less suited for activities requiring physical and manual skills and tend to focus on emotions rather than logical reasoning. Examples of activities suited for social types are helping, serving, teaching, healing, counselling, educating.

Typical fields of work: special needs education, primary schooling, teaching different subjects in compulsory and secondary education, social work, psychological counselling.

Spare time activities: voluntary (social) work, social activities, making friends, family events, performing, dancing.

I

Score: 41


(intellectual) career orientation

Typical personality traits: intellectual, curious, logical, critical, fighting for truth and fairness, independent, analytical, scientific, explorative

Activities: Intellectual types like to get to know material, social or spiritual world. They are interested in gathering and analysing information, finding solutions to problems. They value education and are oriented to achieving results.

Intellectual types constantly strive for increasing their understanding about the world. They could be interested in a scientific discipline or some other field requiring higher level of knowledge.

However they tend to dislike activities that are overly social or repetitive.

Typical fields of work: anthropology, astronomy, biochemistry, biophysics, philology, philosophy, physics, genetics, informatics, mathematics, medicine, psychology, sociology, theology.

Spare time activities: reading, physical work, sport, hiking.

Dienas gaišākā doma

Iekarot sevi pašu ir lielāka uzvara nekā uzvarēt tūkstošus cīņā. /Buda./
Ja tu zinātu, cik spēkpilnas ir tavas domas, tu nekad nedomātu neko sliktu. /Piligrims./
