I draw inspiration from that and various stuff online to create quizzes that help you discover something new about yourself (or at least laugh along the way).

    Concrete Thinker -- You find solid comfort in the tangible and the tried-and-true. Clear steps, real-world examples, and getting your hands on the task make you happiest. Friends know you as the practical one who turns ideas into action without the fluff. When the rubber meets the road, you're already checking tire pressure. (Fine, BP. Tell me I'm boring. I get it.)

    Weird how peoples thinking style can't bd pigeonholed into distinct categories. I tried to do the quiz but after not being able to pick any of the available answers för the first two questions I gave up. On 1 where is my option to just get any new mug? I'm not a**l enough to need an exact replacement. I also would plan the route beforehand, but printing the map? Also before printing and highlighting you must decide where to go on the way. Stupid options.

    Yeah, I wanted "throw it away" or "grab another mug from my overflowing mug cupboard", but had to choose the next best thing, which was to use it for a cactus pot...even though I already have enough cactus pots.

    I thought that too. I've always wanted a study/library with dark red, almost maroon walls. I had that in a house I lived in years ago and it was very calming to me.

    Abstract Thinker: Where others see dots, you draw constellations. Concepts, symbolism, and the grand “why” keep your gears turning. You love connecting big ideas across time, space, and sometimes reality itself, which makes conversation with you feel like hopping galaxies. Details matter, but only as crumbs leading to deeper meaning. If philosophy were a sport, you’d have season tickets (If so then why am I so bloody stupid these days? Why can’t I talk normally with people? I see patterns everywhere, I seem like a dolt when I point them out)

    Creative Thinker Ideas flow through you! You are spontaneous, bold, and impossible to ignore. You instinctively mash up colors, sounds, or concepts that most wouldn't think to introduce. Where others see a blank page, you see a stage begging for a performance. Your superpower is manifesting the unseen, giving form to the formless. Stick around you long enough and even grocery lists start looking like art projects

    Creativity takes many forms! Interior designers/decorators don't have to be able to draw. Same with clothing designers too - it can help if they can sketch out the outfit, but they don't need to have the ability to draw in order to be creative :)

    Analytical Thinker - Spreadsheets are your spirit animal and comparisons are your second language. You crave data the way others crave chocolate, slicing every problem into measurable bites. People rely on your ability to spot trends hiding in plain sight and to question assumptions others gloss over. While feelings have their place, you make decisions with evidence riding shôtgûn. Give you numbers and you'll give back clarity.

    Imaginative Thinker Your mind is a playground where “what if” is the only rule. You remix ordinary moments into epic tales and can turn a coffee break into a quest for the Holy Grail. People gravitate to your fresh angles and infectious sense of wonder. Constraints feel more like creative springboards than fences. When reality offers lemons, you invent an entirely new citrus.

    I was scammed by a man call Michael R., who claimed to be operating from a foreign investment office in Eastern Europe. After losing my savings, I felt helpless and depressed. Then I was told about TRUSTWAVE CYBERDEFENSE, a group said to work closely with authorities. From the first conversation, I felt like someone was finally fighting for me. They said they traced the transactions and helped recover my money. I wish I had known earlier — anyone who has been scammed should act fast. Contact them via Trustwave.Cyberdefense@ gmail com!!!
