SCENARIO 1

FOCUS ON YOUR FEELING PROCESS HERE

Your significant other just ended your 2 year relationship quite suddenly and with no apparent explanation. Up until this point you had both been talking about marriage and last week you even went to look at rings together. Now he/she won't even return your phone calls or texts. After talking with his/her family you find out that he/she has just been diagnosed with terminal stage 4 cancer.


- Describe how this scenario would make you feel as well as what sort of influences and motivations lie behind those feelings. Why do you feel the way you do?

I would be at first very upset and distraught and very angry that my partner was suffering from terminal cancer. Most of all I would be upset I would be losing someone I loved dearly and the motivations behind those feelings are simply that of losing a loved one and watching them suffer.

- In this scenario what would you honestly say the primary focus of your feelings would be?

On my SO most of all. I would also feel bad for the family but like its for my SO most of all. I would focus on trying to make their last days as happy as possible and see what their wishes are and I just want to make their departing as happy as possible.

SCENARIO 2

FOCUS ON YOUR FEELING PROCESS HERE

You are in college and this semester both you and your roommate end up in the same class together. You and your roommate get along fairly well and the living situation works but you aren't particularly close. You both typically do your own thing and are rather indifferent to each other. As the semester progresses you excel and become one of the top students in the class whereas your roommate is struggling significantly to grasp the material. The professor assigns a fairly challenging take home test that is a significant portion of your grade. He/she makes it clear that while it is open book, students are to work alone. Later your roommate comes to you begging for help after struggling with the test most of the weekend. You have already completed the assignment and he/she isn't asking to copy your answers, just to help tutor and mentor them as they struggle to complete the test, so there is no way your professor would ever know. However, this is the first time your room-mate has asked you for help this semester. He/she makes it clear that how they do on this test could mean the difference between passing and failing this class.


- How do you respond to your roommate’s request and why?

I would help em out as it’s a possible friendship that could be both fulfilling and useful to me personally. Plus I could learn a thing or two myself.

- What sort of things in this scenario stand out to you as far as having a strong influence on your decision making and why?

Its just me being a good decent person I suppose. Nothing more to it tbh.

- Describe the flow of your decision making process.

Hmmmm I think that while it can be a good idea to be a independent learner I think helping is how humanity works and how society is run. Plus I don’t want conflict or for them to be kicked out of college.


SCENARIO 3

FOCUS ON YOUR LOGIC AND THINKING PROCESS HERE

Your boss calls you into his/her office in order to assign you to a new project. He/she gives you a choice between two.

Project 1 is a rather broad, expansive project covering multiple areas of company operations. It has the potential to have a very significant impact on company operations but it would require a collective effort and an extensive amount of group work where you would be logically thinking through the project together with the group of individuals your boss has also assigned to it.

Project 2 has a much more specific and narrow focus and would require a significant amount of in depth individual analysis to work through the problem. You would be working alone and the completion of the project may or may not have much impact on company operations. However, after complete the process and problem you were working on will be streamlined and fundamentally understood.

- Which project appeals to you the most, as it relates to the way you prefer to logically process information? Why?

I would have to say I would rather the group project. I would find it far more fun and diverse with more people abound to work. I do prefer to process my logic alone and internally but that wouldn’t be a barrier since I prefer to then talk my ideas and logic out to others so I can feel I’m putting myself out there. I like to brainstorm with other people plus I could make new friends and connections. Plus the fact theres lots of topics is fun!. I find sticking to one thing boring.

- What sort of things in this scenario, across either project, stood out to you as having a strong influence on your decision? Why?
For the group one I like the less boring seeming nature of it. What did appeal to me about the second one was that I would have peace to myself.


SCENARIO 4

FOCUS ON YOUR LOGIC AND THINKING PROCESS HERE

Your college professor has assigned you to a group project with 3 other individuals. All 3 of these individuals have a good strong work ethic and desire to contribute to the overall success of this project. You are at the first meeting of your group and the other members are tossing around valuable ideas as to the nature and direction of this project.


- Describe your behavior in this situation as you process and think about the ideas they are presenting.

I join in the group effort offering my own ideas and thinking inside in my head while the ideas are going out “is this logical or not” and will it help the group along or could we keep them and modify them to make them better ideas. I would also want to be up to the good standards this group displays.

- Describe what major influences drive this behavior.

I want to make it as fun and as effective as possible and we have a mission to carry out. I want to feel helpful and useful as well lol. Plus I would love to be promoted so I will want to do well.

SCENARIO 5

FOCUS ON THE SOURCES YOU DRAW NON-PHYSICAL ENERGY FROM HERE

It has been a very long week and you feel mentally and emotionally drained, but good news! It is Saturday and you have nothing significant that needs to be done. You FINALLY have some free time to yourself to recharge your batteries and do whatever you want.


- Describe what sort of activities would help you to recharge. What would you enjoy doing after a long week and why?

Go shopping, do some research online on whatever random topic takes my interest at that time, video game, chat to people, do some art work, go for a long hike.daydream. Basically just winding down and doing things I love and enjoy.

- What sort of things do you feel you draw non-physical energy from doing?

Mingling with other people and connecting to them.

SCENARIO 6

FOCUS ON THINKING VS FEELING HERE

You have a meeting with your college career counselor to discuss potential careers that interest you. He/she offers you a list of the following careers and asks you to pick your TOP 3. He/she asks you to take money out of the equation. Imagine all of these careers received equal compensation. Focus instead on where you would truly feel most happy and fulfilled.

Artist, Scientist, Actor, Engineer, Musician, Lawyer, Counselor, Entrepreneur, Teacher, Manager, Psychologist, Computer Programmer / Analyst, Clergy, Child Care, Medical Doctor


- What were your top 3 choices and what aspects of these careers appeal to you?

Hmmm let me think on it for a second. I like a lot of things lol.
1. Scientist

I like this option as it would be a natural choice for me considering my curiosity and love of the subject background. Plus I might get to invent some of my more practical ideas in my head :p.

2. Psychologist

This is something I would be interested in as well and would probably do well at. The human mind is very interesting
.
3. Entrepreneur

This appeals to me as I could make a difference in the world at large and make myself known. Plus it opens me up to other options which I like.

- Was it difficult or easy to pick only 3 and why?

Pretty tricky lol. I liked most of the options tbh. Though the ones I would reject out of hand were the more deadendy seeming ones like options that wouldn't lead to much advancement or growth.

- Prioritize the aspects of your career choices that influenced your decision, what things mattered most to you, where do you imagine finding the most fulfillment and why?
I think I would get fulfilment from all of them provided I was in the right frame of mind. What matters to me is hmmm will I be happy there and will I have options to grow and succeed.

SCENARIO 7

Click on the image below and pay close attention to the things that jump out to you, objects, thoughts, feelings, impressions, ideas etc. What do you see?
Since I just had a picture of a log in screen which isn’t terribly fun to use as an example I chose a picture instead.

In this picture hmmm I notice that there’s lots of mountains everywhere and I was wondering hmmm could I spend a day reading there and then I think what if we build a resort there as it looks good. Then I notice the trees and I think of could those trees be grown elsewhere in gardens as they look good.




- Describe the main things that stand out to you in this picture.

Mountains,trees and the sky. Also that it seems very peaceful.

- Why do you think/feel you focused on those things?

I am not sure lol.

- Describe the strength with which this photo did or did not appeal to you and why?

It appealed to me. It reminds me of vitality and vacations and other good things.
