Scoring Your Quiz

To determine your success style, count the number of A’s, B’s, and C’s you selected. Then score your results as follows:

Mostly A’s: You are a Manifester.

You believe in destiny and that the universe has a plan for you. Visualization is the cornerstone of your success model. Through this approach you attract and manifest what you want in life. “People who have this belief system have an exceptional ability to remain positive regardless of the circumstances,” says Shapiro. “The key is to balance this belief system with action. Rather than waiting for success to find you, proactively go out and get it.”

Mostly B’s: You are Goal-Free.

You are largely motivated by the journey, not the destination. You choose endeavors of interest rather than those specifically designed to make you successful. It is your tendency to keep your options open and think about what is possible. “These are what I call the ‘goal-free’ people,” says Shapiro. “Their experiences matter more than their accomplishments. The key is to avoid getting stuck in the possibility phase without taking action. For these individuals, it is critical that they love what they do. This approach leads them to both passion and success.”

Mostly C’s: You are Goal-Driven.

Your preferred success style is through goal setting. You tend to write down your goals and timetables for reaching them. Then you focus on attaining them, one by one. You rely heavily on facts. As you tend to over-analyze decisions, you may be slow to change direction. “Your ability to focus and stay on course helps you make progress toward your chosen target,” says Shapiro. “You are so attached to your goals that you become more susceptible to stress and self-defeat. If you can allow yourself to enjoy the journey and remain open to new opportunities, you have a winning combination.”
