I had a friend who sent me a link to his "Johari Window". You get a bunch of friends to select 5-6 characteristics that they think best summarize you. Their choices are compared to your personal choices. Then it prints out this nifty chart.
The chart works out something like the old Donald Rumsfeld quote: "Some stuff we know we know. Some stuff we know we don't know. Some stuff we don't know we know. Some stuff we don't know we don't know."
Some stuff I kind of expected people would pick. Namely "religious". Apparently, most people also think I'm friendly. Another nice surprise was that several people consider me "witty".
I think my favorite category is the stuff that neither I nor anyone else knows about me. (Bottom Right) I kind of chuckled when I saw that no one picked "spontaneous", because it's absolutely true: I'm NOT spontaneous. Then again by this chart, if I'm dignified, sensible, sympathetic, warm, or brave, apparently nobody knows about it. :-)
You might try creating your very own Johari window. This chart is based on the results of 15 answers (thanks to my friends who have completed it). If you would like to fill this one out on me, go here. The more results, the more accurate it probably is.

Ok Markito....I know you saw I did my own window....fun stuff....I just stopped by to see if you've blogged any since moving and you havent. I looked more closely at your window and was amazed to see that no one had listed silly except you. I honestly didnt pay attention (actually didnt understand totally how it worked when I did yours) but I'm pretty sure I used silly in your description. Matthew, Brice and Cody's video left no doubt in my mind that you are seriously silly.
ReplyDeleteSo.....anyway just thought I'd share that with you.
take care!!!! Tell Carolina hello and give her a big kiss for me.
