Values and life styles survey

On the other hand, I strive to overcome day to day challenges and ensure that I live comfortably no matter the challenges of day to day experiences.
I also think that my ability to adapt to circumstances played a part in my classification as a striver. This points towards the fact that I endeavor to avoid being victim circumstances and instead find ways of manipulating the circumstances to my advantage. This doesn’t mean that I do not have ethics as I also believe that things should be done in the correct way.
However, I disagree with the primary classification as Experiencer. I believe it portrays me as a person who just sits there and waits for circumstances to dictate my life. This is not true as I keep up with the times and like to actively participate. Perhaps a classification as an achiever would have suited me best as I take satisfaction in having new achievements more than just experiencing. I strongly feel that the assessment in this regard was inappropriate. As a person who loves adventure and to have a change of environment for better opportunities, I feel it was an underestimation. I should have been classified as an achiever.
