The Leadership/Management Diagnostic Test

Are you a D, I, S, or C from the leadership/management diagnostic test? The result after conducting the diagnostic test in class was that I am a S (steadiness) and a high in C (conscientiousness). I think that the results were pretty much correct overall. The description of a steadiness person is that one like to demonstrate patience, desires to help others, shows loyalty, etc. I am this kind of person, but I don't agree on the "cooperating with others to carry out the task" part because I don't really like group work. I tend to like to get tasks done by doing them alone. And as for a conscientiousness person, I do work "conscientiously within existing circumstances to ensure quality and accuracy." Whenever I have to get something done, at work or in school, I am very serious about it and hope that the outcome will be good. I really like things to be accurate so that I'll know what to do and how to do it.

Basically, I think I am both a type C and S. I am a conscientious and steady person that can not dominate or influence others. I do not have those powers and would not like such powers. So, I think the result of the leadership/management diagnostic test is pretty accurate. I also think that it will be very help if I know what type people are around me. If I know what type that person is, I will then know how to act toward that person in order to cooperate smoothly in terms of relationships and/or work. I think that if we know what others' personalities are like, then it will be a lot easier to work things out in all kind of situations.

The VISION that give future....

I think the video that we saw in class about "Vision" and its concept was pretty interesting. We all think about what we want to accomplish something in a certain amount of time. This could be a short-term or long-term goal that we are setting ourselves that may or may not happen. The percentage of it happening or not depends on the amount of effort we put into it. I really like one the statements that got repeated throughout the video, which is "vision without action is just a dream/action without vision merely wastes time/vision with action can make things happen." I totally agree with it and think that it is a true factual concept.

I, like many others, have visions too. I look and think into the future of what I want myself to be doing. The first vision that I want to see myself accomplish is to graduate from college. In order to see this college degree, I would have to concentrate more on my studies. I have to take more time in school work, rather than working and doing other things. After that, I hope to get a decent good job that can pay my living expenses and also have some to be saved for future use. I hope that the job that I wish to work in show some "getting along with others around the area" kind of environment, which I know is hard to find. I am looking forward to see this come true. I will try my best to find it by concentrating on my studies and doing some research (which will involve peers). Within the next five years I would also like to spend some time going to other countries to relax, in another word, taking vacations. I have lots of places that I want to visit, so I hope to go at least one of them. I know that I will not have enough money to go on vacation every year, but one should be affordable. I will just have to work hard to enough money.

Each and every vision that we have in our mind may come true if we take action, but without action it will just be an dream in wonderland.
