Total Score |
____ |
- Numbers 1, 6, 7, 9 and 13 measure your attitude, discipline, and your identification with or
ability to believe in something bigger than yourself. Add your scores. The higher the score, the more able you are to
manage stress.
- Numbers 2, 3, 8, 10 and 14 measure attitude, contentment, values, integrity, and the availability of your support
system. Add your scores. The higher this score, the more committed you are and the more you enjoy your life.
- Numbers 4, 5, 11, 12 and 15 measure discipline, flexibility, attitude, integrity, values, and
frustration tolerance. A high score means youre more willing to take risks.
Youve probably noticed that nearly all of the fifteen items measure attitude and discipline,
which in turn are a measure of someones maturity level. This suggests something rather strongly, dont you think?
If all three of these scores add up to 35 or more, you are very resistant
to stress; 27-34, youre somewhat resistant, but can stand improvement; 18-26,
you need to change; under 18, not only are you scoring poorly on this test,
youre probably not scoring well in life. Call for an appointment!
