Apparently we all have tendencies based on how we process and perceive expectations. The question is; which tendencies do you have?
I stumbled across the information while listening to a Tim Ferriss podcast where he interviewed Gretchen Rubin, author of The Four Tendencies, along with her other accolades.
The Four Tendencies
Show above are the four tendencies.....I took the quiz on her website, though just based on the examples she spoke about I had a good feeling which I was.
He can find the quiz here: https://gretchenrubin.com/books/the-four-tendencies/take-the-quiz/
Questioner
To no surprise at all - I am a questioner, which makes sense given all the research I do when it comes to investing and just about anything in life. Additionally, I tend to question the reasons for expectations from others
Which Are You?
Upholder - Meets inner and outer expectations
Rebel - Resists both inner and out expectations
Obliger - Meets outer expectations, but resists inner expectations.
An example of an obliger is someone that always goes out of their way to help and meet other people's needs but fails to stick to the things they set for themselves.
Anyway, found it very interesting and made me more self aware about myself!
