“‘Try it and let’s see what happens.’ That’s my motto.”
“People see me as determined. I just keep moving forward.”

“I ask ‘why?’ a lot. I guess it can get annoying sometimes, but I can’t help it. I’m the kind of person who hates assumptions. I need to get to the bottom of why things are the way they are.”
“I don’t like rushing into things. I’m not a ‘ready, aim, fire’ person. I’m more a ‘study, ready, aim, fire, study again’ person.”
Pioneer
As a Pioneer, you begin by asking, “What’s new?” You are, by nature, an explorer, excited by things you haven’t seen before, people you haven’t yet met. Often times you are the first of your friends to try new things, because this excites you. Whereas others are intimidated by the unfamiliar, you are intrigued by it. It fires your curiosity and heightens your senses–you are smarter and more perceptive when you’re doing something you’ve never done before. With new things comes risk, and you welcome this. You are a trailblazer. You are at your best when you ask a question no one has asked, try a technique no one has tried, and feel an experience few have felt. We need you at your best. You lead us into the undiscovered country.
Creator
As a Creator, you begin by asking, “What do I understand?” You start with what you know before looking elsewhere. You like to find the patterns in life. You like to solve puzzles by understanding all the parts and pieces. For you, there’s nothing quite as thrilling as finding a pattern that can explain why things play out the way they do, or better yet, predict how things are going to play out. You are a thinker. You need time to think to make decisions. So you look forward to time by yourself – early in the morning, late at night, long walks – and you use this time to get clear. You are a creative person – not necessarily an artist, but someone who makes sense of things. You create things to organize the chaos in the world. You look at what you’ve made; you take pleasure in what you now understand, and then you move on to the next creation.
