Imagine someone invites you to give a short speech in front of people you do not know. What is the first thing that comes to your mind?

Select an answer:

Maybe I would try it, but first I would come up with a reason not to. I freeze at the thought of messing something up. It sounds scary, but that's exactly why I would go for it. It depends on what kind of people they are – if they are open-minded, maybe yes. Why would anyone want to hear me at all?

When you hear the word "uncertainty," what image is the first to appear in your mind?

Select an answer:

A crossroads in the fog, where I can't see where the road leads. The feeling in the stomach before the exam. Meeting someone new in an unfamiliar place. Jumping into the water without knowing how deep it is. The lights are off and footsteps in the dark.

Someone will tell you: "Start where it hurts." How would you interpret this sentence?

Select an answer:

It sounds like a phrase from a motivational poster. It’s a challenge – perhaps something is hidden right there. I would rather start somewhere else, where it is easier. It is uncomfortable, but it probably makes sense. That sounds like something for people who are looking for trouble.

How do you react when you find yourself in a situation where someone disagrees with your opinion?

Select an answer:

I will step down – it doesn't make sense to argue. I will consider whether they might be right. I will begin to defend my position, even though I'm not completely sure. It will surprise me and throw me off a bit. I'm trying to understand his perspective, even though it unsettles me.

Imagine that a project completely fails. How do you handle it?

Select an answer:

I'm hiding it and pretending that nothing happened. I analyze what was wrong, but I forget to praise myself for what was good. I would rather start something new to forget. I ask myself what it was supposed to teach me. I feel like giving everything up for a while.

You got the opportunity to go to a completely unknown country for 3 months. What is your first reaction?

Select an answer:

Curiosity and fear are fighting for dominance. I'm asking what could go wrong. I will start to imagine everything I could experience. I would rather stick to what I know. It excites me, but then I let it go because "now is not the right time."

When you are bored or feel stagnation, what do you do first?

Select an answer:

I am trying to find something to distract me. I'll tell myself that maybe it's meant to be this way – after all, you can't always grow. I'm looking for something unpleasant to get into. I am going through old ideas that I set aside. I will escape to something familiar that quickly calms me down.

Which quote resonates with you the most?

Select an answer:

"The more I fear something, the more I need to do it." "Not every fear needs to be overcome – some protect us." "Growth comes when we do what is outside our comfort zone." "Success is about what we know, not what we feel." "If it hurts, maybe it’s not for me."

Imagine that you have to publicly admit a mistake. How do you feel?

Select an answer:

Anxiety and the attempt to somehow make excuses. Embarrassment, but also relief. Aversion – I don't want to appear weak. Calm down – everyone makes mistakes, that's normal. The challenge – how to do it in a way that it gives something to others.

...snažím sa nájsť dôvod, prečo ma to odrádza, a zistiť, či je to naozaj obava alebo len strach z neznámeho.
