HESITANT HOPEFUL
The quiz you just completed measures two dimensions relevant to stepping out in faith toward your dreams: Openness to Experience and Resilience.You scored in the lower range for both dimensions. This suggests you prefer playing it safe and tend to give in when confronted with challenges you cannot readily solve. Fear and negative thinking may prevent you from stepping out in faith to pursue your dreams. Remember that no matter how smart or talented you are, the willingness to experiment, fail, and learn from your failures is crucial to realizing your potential. Remember Eleanor Roosevelt's words as you seek to step out in faith: “Do something that scares you every day.”Note: This is not a scientifically developed or validated psychological inventory. Our quiz is offered to spark self-reflection, self-discovery, and insight but is not being sold, marketed, or offered as a validated psychological assessment.In Chapter 10 of my book, Blues to Blessings: Moving from Fearful to Faithful, I write about how I played it safe by not being my authentic self. I feared that if I left behind my façade, my true self would not be accepted. However, living behind a façade watered down my voice and held me back from truly embracing God’s plans for me.
