This personality test<\/a> is close, but there are some things I do not find in myself (naturally.) Examples: I’m not particularly fond of animals, sports, cars or jewelry. It’s quite a thought-provoking test. Thanks, once again, to Czelticgirl, who is not my wife.<\/p>\n

You are an SECL–Sober Emotional Constructive Leader. This makes you a politician. You cut deals, you change minds, you make things happen. You would prefer to be liked than respected, but generally people react to you with both. You are very sensitive to criticism, since your entire business is making people happy.<\/i><\/p>\n

At times your commitment to the happiness of other people can cut into the happiness of you and your loved ones. This is very demanding on those close to you, who may feel neglected. Slowly, you will learn to set your own agenda–including time to yourself. <\/i><\/p>\n

You are gregarious, friendly, charming and charismatic. You like animals, sports, and beautiful cars. You wear understated gold jewelry and have secret bad habits, like chewing your fingers and fidgeting.<\/i><\/p>\n

You are very difficult to dislike.<\/i><\/p>\n
