How Self-confident Are You?


1.  Your teacher really liked the sculpture you did for your three-dimensional art class and praises you profusely.  Your reaction is:
      a) "Thank you very much."
      b) Matter of fact.  Of course your artwork is wonderful.
      c) To look behind you and make sure she's not talking to someone else.

2.  Its the first beach day of the year.  You've been working out all winter in anticipation.  What do you wear?
      a) You stay home.  You're still not in good enough shape to be seen.
      b) Your cool swimming trunks.
      c) A  speedo.

3.  Tryouts for the school play begin next week.  You've always wanted to test your acting skills.  What do you do?
      a) Practice, practice, practice before the big day.
      b) Chicken out at the last minute and sign up to paint the scenery.
      c) Go in cold to your audition.  No need to worry-you're sure you'll get the lead.

4.  You're dancing with your cousin at a family wedding, when suddenly you realize the dance floor has cleared and all eyes are on the two of you.  You:
      a) Use the opportunity to showcase those new steps you've been

      b) Hope that they're not playing the extended dance mix.
      c) Stop in your tracks.

      c) Double-check some of the more difficult questions.

7.  During homeroom there's an announcement over the loudspeaker for you to report to the principle's office-pronto.  What's running through your mind?
      a) The principle found out you didn't do your homework last night, and you're
          being suspended.
      b) You must have been nominated for some honor.
      c) You hope it's good news, but you're a little nervous nonetheless.

IF YOUR SCORE IS....

17-21  I'm Fabulous
Are you really that sure of yourself?  If so, you could use a slice of humble pie a la mode.  Your head is definitely swelled past the breaking point.  Sometimes an overconfident attitude is a sign of hidden insecurity.  Could this be the case?

12-16 I'm Fine
Maybe you have doubts now and then, but you never let them get in your way.  You are self-assured but you've got a touch of humility, too.  And you know how to take a compliment.  Take this one: you are definitely a secure person.

7-11 I'm Pathetic
You could use an ego tune-up.  You are probably your own harshest critic.  Stop being so hard on yourself, and start being more positive to all you have to offer!
