Imagine that you receive a job offer with a high salary, but in a field that doesn't fulfill you. How do you respond?

Select an answer:

I feel inner restlessness, but I rationalize that it is the right decision. I immediately know that it's not for me - my intuition tells me to reject it. First, I will ask the opinion of someone close to me to be sure. I analyze the risks and opportunities, but in the end, I decide based on my gut feeling. I will wait until I have clarity and make a decision based on the situation.

If you have to make a decision between two options and don't know what to do, what will you do?

Select an answer:

I will make a list of pros and cons and choose the more rational solution. I will give myself space for my intuition to express itself. I wait for the first impulse that I feel, and I follow it. I will consult with someone who has more experience. I will consider the facts, but in the end, I will ask myself the question: "What does my feeling tell me?"

How do you react when you feel strong emotions (anger, joy, fear) before an important decision?

Select an answer:

I will take a break to calm down, and I will decide only after that. I let the emotion work and watch where it leads me. I will contemplate whether this emotion affects my rational thinking. Emotions are my compass – if I feel something strongly, it means something. I am trying to set aside my emotions and focus on the facts.

When someone strongly argues against your decision, how do you react?

Select an answer:

I defend my decision with logical facts. I listen and observe if something doesn't "add up" in his arguments. I will consider how I feel – if I don't feel good, something is off. If you have rational arguments, I might reconsider my decision. I ask myself whether what I chose still feels right to me.

When buying an expensive item (car, house), what do you base your decision on?

Select an answer:

I am looking for facts, reviews, and comparisons. I will take my time until I feel a clear answer. I'm going for it if I have an immediate good feeling. I will consult with someone who has experience. First, I analyze, but the final word is ultimately my inner feeling.

If you have a "bad feeling" about someone, even if you don't have evidence, how do you react?

Select an answer:

I am looking for evidence to make sure that it is justified. I trust my intuition and I pay attention. I am examining whether my feeling does not stem from my own prejudices. If the feeling repeats, I start to behave more cautiously. I am not ignoring it, but I need more information for a final judgment.

Important life change (e.g., moving, new job). How do you make your decision?

Select an answer:

I will create a plan and make decisions based on logical factors. I'll give myself time to let the decision settle within me. If I have a strong feeling about it (positive or negative), it is decisive for me. First, I analyze, but if I feel inner resistance, I prefer not to go for it. I listen to what my body tells me – if I feel unrest, I know that something is not right.

Imagine that you are deciding between two offers – one is logically more advantageous, the other "suits you better." What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will choose the logically more advantageous option. I wonder why the second option suits me better – maybe there's a hidden reason for it. If my feeling is strong, I will choose this option, even if logic does not see it the same way. I will take my time and see which option appeals to me later. I will take a test – if I imagine that I have decided on one, how do I feel?

Which situation frustrates you more?

Select an answer:

When I don't have enough information to make a decision. When I feel that something is not right, but I can't explain it logically. When my heart says something different than my mind. When I have too many options and don't know which one to choose. When I have to make a quick decision without the possibility of deeper analysis.

What do you consider your strongest resource in decision-making?

Select an answer:

Analytical thinking and facts. The ability to perceive subtle signals and the energy of a situation. First impulse and emotional reactions. Experience and intuition from the past. The combination of reason and feelings – depends on the situation.
