For my grit test I scored a 39 out of 50 which means "you see yourself
as grittier than about 60 percent of American adults see themselves."
(Soomo). My most dominant personality trait was that I am very open.
I agree with my results because any time I start a project I am
determined to finish it. I also agree with my personality trait because I
am a very open and easy person to talk to. The value of knowing both
your grit and personality traits is the fact you know what you are
capable of. What I mean by that is, if you know you are a determined
person then that will help you achieve so much more in life. I do agree
with Rita's position because either positive or negative connections it
will still play a major role in your long term goals and the direction you
head in.
My champion is myself, I do not say that to sound good about myself,
I say that because I always set slightly higher goals that I know is
achievable but will be a struggle to get to it. The reason I do that is
because once I complete those goals I look back at myself and feel
very proud of myself. The concept of grit and personality applies to
self care, and emotional intelligence. I say that because in order to
have self care you need to have grit and have a right mindset and
personality to be able to achieve self care in a way that is helpful and
healthy. I believe that there is a connection to emotional intelligence
because it is how you come off as a person. With that being said your
personality plays a major role in that because with a happy and
positive personality the better you will come off as a person.
