VALS Survey Results

Write & publish a blog post about your results and how you feel they reflect or fail to reflect who you are as a person.

I believe that my primary result is spot on.  I absolutely consider myself someone who loves to experience new things that are very thrilling and interesting and I love to make things happen. My idea of interesting and exciting experiences that I have done are things such as traveling, doing physical activity, riding roller coasters, free falling, tubing,  tasting new foods, cliff jumping etc... My future exciting plans include skydiving, snorkeling, hang gliding, and more.

I love the feeling of achieving things, however I find that I often over-think things, which is the reason I feel that I am more of a thinker rather than an achiever.

I really enjoy making and creating things that are useful and successful. Although the test says that I am an achiever, I also think that my thinking skills would be very appealing to a consumer, because I can use this skill to dissect every possibility that would create a successful .
