Let’s talk about how each of us knows how to appreciate our own time, and to understand this issue in more detail, the below test will help us. You only need to honestly answer the questions offered to your attention, and then calculate the amount of points scored. And already on the basis of the results, you can get acquainted with the opinion of psychologists in this regard.
Question No. for your girlfriend tends to share her troubles with you, she does not miss the case of crying “into a vest”, but at the same time she ignores all your advice. Very little time passes, and the situation is repeated again, what will be your reaction?- In any case, you are always ready to listen to her, providing comprehensive support- 1 point;- of course, you will certainly listen to her, but now it is to refrain from giving comments- 2 points;- you will strongly ask your girlfriend that she does not try to look for more It is you – 3 points.
Question No. all week you were going to go to a country picnic with your friends, but, for some reason, at the most “responsible” moment you have any desire to go somewhere, as you will go in such a situation?- Of course, you will inform them of this, without explaining the reasons- 3 points;- you will certainly find a convenient excuse to refuse to travel, for example, tell me about your “terrible” well-being- 2 points;- be sure to go on a planned suburban trip, since they are firmly convinced that you were counted on – 1 point.
Question No. what free pastime is the most familiar to you, how do you spend your weekend?- Of course, the vacation should only be active, and therefore in the “program” of my weekend there are walks, sports classes – 2; – as a rule, on the weekend you meet with your friends, with whom you are shorting the evenings for your “female” conversations – 1 ;- it all depends on the mood that can only be located on the couch with the remote control from the TV and the simultaneous absorption of something tasty-
Question No. The working day is coming to an end, but you still have a lot of incomplete things, what will be your mood and actions?- So far I will not redo it, I will be at the workplace, with a grit of my teeth- 1;- you just need to relax, and therefore allow yourself some break- 3;- you need to finish it today, and all other things that do not require such urgency, take up on The next day –
Question No. How do you perceive the delay of other people?- It is quite negative, especially in cases where you are forced to wait for someone- 3;- first of all, other people’s delays make you worry about whether something happened- 1;- tolerate what is happening quite calmly, since you always find what you can take free time – 2 points.
Well, now, as always, we begin our “accounting”, that is, we count the scores scored. The result of five to eight points, according to experts, indicates that when planning your time, you pay more attention to external factors, careing mainly about others. Still, you should listen to yourself and act according to your own desires.
But if you managed to score from nine to twelve points, then in this case you can talk about the fact that it may seem to you that time is catastrophically lacking, and you do not have time to do anything, and this leads to the fact that in your head I have to keep several problems at the same time. In this case, let yourself sometimes forget about your obligations.
The amount of points you have amounted to from thirteen to fifteen? In this case, you can be called a very punctual person who is able to competently plan his time and not allow others to do otherwise. But it’s still worth thinking about their feelings, because it does not hurt to be a little condescending to other people’s weaknesses.
