I'll smile, but inside I think he's wrong. My smile freezes and I wonder what they are after. I will take it as evidence that I am doing something right. I'll lighten it up with a joke or redirect it to someone else. I will be pleased, but I feel the pressure that I have to confirm it next time.

At the exhibition, there is a painting without a description. Which of these reactions is closest to you?

It occurs to me that I wouldn't be able to handle something like that on my own. I am interested in how it affects other people. I will say to myself: "I have something unique within me too."

A friend confides in you that they doubt themselves. How do you respond?

Imagine you receive an offer that pushes you forward but also scares you. What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will refuse, I am not ready for it yet. I hesitate for a long time and weigh the risks. I'll accept it – after all, it will somehow be managed. I will call someone I trust to tell me what they think. I'll say to myself, "If not now, when?" and I go for it.
