Presonal Mission Statement

I didn't hand in my personal mission statement or my human metrics test on time. I only handed in the collage during the second week of school. I didn't know if there were going to be any similarities between the three. However I couldn't see the similarities because I never attempted to do the assignments. Today I actually finished the human metrics test and I wrote a personal mission statement. I can see that there are several similarities and some contrasts that come up.

My first criterion in the Jung test describes me as an extrovert meaning that I draw my energy from outside sources as opposed to inwardly from myself. This to some extent is true but I do draw some inspiration and drive from my own ideas and goals that I have set for myself. However in my personal mission statement my biggest concern is that I procrastinate. Usually in school it takes other to push me to do my work. Especially in group work. Instead of having my own drive I work off the drive of others and usually end up doing work because I don't want to let the group down or because I am being pushed to do work when a deadline is approaching. On the collage I didn't include any pictures of myself. Instead I used pictures from magazines which inspired me or somehow reflected me. The idea that I draw energy and drive from outside sources seem to be present in all the.

Sensing was the result of the test as the second criteria. This is also common in the mission statement. I'm not sure if this is entirely accurate as I would like to believe that I come to some of my own conclusions and that I do not always have to count on outside sources for information. However most of my knowledge in terms of the world has come out of personal experience as well as learning from other especially school.

Third I was feeling. This means that I base most of my decisions on emotions rather than logic. I'm sure I use some logic to make decisions in my life. However this kind of troubled me because I think I still need to grow emotionally. If my decisions are mostly based on emotional circumstances then this could pose a problem as my decisions will be incomplete in reasoning. However since I've started reading the seven habits I've realized that I might need to alter my perceptions and change my paradigm.
