I've been thinking a lot about the future lately and since I'm making an ambitious career choice (writer/filmmaker/possible musician) I've been wondering about how successful I could be with that choice.

This test determines your determination to become successful.

My results were:


External Goals

World well-being

Political Influence

You have a moderate desire for external approval and would like others to see you as successful.You would like to be famous and enjoy the attention of others. You are likely to be somewhat attention seeking. You are not interested in making the world a better place and would rather focus on other goals. You don't really like positions of authority and will avoid them if you can.

Love and good relationships are very important factors for you. What is life without love? You cherish the relationships of those around you and have a lot of love to give. While you have a good social group, you are not overly worried about the social aspects of your life. Money isn't overly important to you and does not motivate you that much, as long as you have enough to get by you aren't really worried about financial success. You absolutely love your work and throw yourself into it with a passion. You are most likely to be a very creative person and you really enjoy the process of making something (whether it be physical or artistic).

You do not require much external approval and do not mind if others see you as successful or not.You are not interested in becoming famous and don't overly enjoy the attention of others. You are not generally attention seeking. You are not at all interested in making the world a better place and would rather focus on other goals. You don't really like positions of authority and will avoid them if you can.

Love and good relationships are important factors for you and you want to make sure that you do not sacrifice them in the pursuit of other goals. You are not at all interested in socialising and do not have an overly strong social group. You dislike it if friends who are not overly close take up too much of your time. Money isn't overly important to you and does not motivate you that much, as long as you have enough to get by you aren't really worried about financial success. You really enjoy your work and believe it is important to be satisfied with your job. You are probably a creative person and enjoy the creative process.

It didn't pick up on any of my desires to be an influential but shadowy member of the government :(

Love and great relationships are the most important factors in the world to you. What is life without love? You intensly cherish the relationships of those around you and have a huge amount of love to give. While you have a good social group, you are not overly worried about the social aspects of your life. Money isn't overly important to you and does not motivate you that much, as long as you have enough to get by you aren't really worried about financial success.

The paragraphs aren't terribly accurate. There is also no surprise to me that Creation/Fulfillment and Partner and Family are my top 2.

Edit:Looks like, so far, everyone has had the same top 2.

Love and good relationships are important factors for you and you want to make sure that you do not sacrifice them in the pursuit of other goals. While you have a good social group, you are not overly worried about the social aspects of your life. Money makes the world go round, and being financially free and successful is important to you. Be careful that you don't focus on financial success so much that it inhibits your personal relationships. You absolutely love your work and throw yourself into it with a passion. You are most likely to be a very creative person and you really enjoy the process of making something (whether it be physical or artistic).

...nice

You have a moderate desire for external approval and would like others to see you as successful.You are not interested in becoming famous and don't overly enjoy the attention of others. You are not generally attention seeking. A powerful aspiration to make the world a better place drives you. You want to help the people around you and the world in general. You love the feeling of power over others and enjoy being in positions of authority.

You are not overly interested in having strong relationships or being close to your partner or family. The pursuit of your other goals are more important to you. You are not really interested in socialising and do not really have an overly strong social group. You dislike it if friends who are not overly close take up too much of your time. It is important to you that you acheive a moderate level of financial success in live and you do not wish to be poor. But as long as you have enough money to get by then you are not motivated to acheive great riches. While you like your work and believe that work should be satisfying, it is not the central focus of your life and not hugely important to you.

I also took their personality thing and apparently I'm very neurotic. :/
