However, dominantly, I am a 4. At least by its descriptions. I like achieving and working alone, but I don't care about praise for it. Being extremely emotional and a romantic, I don't believe I am capable of the heartless machine behaviour such as taking work over your kids and throwing off negative emotions. I thrive and fall by however I feel, and while I'm certainly good in achieving goals, I won't be able to do so if I don't feel up to it. While there are certain things that I can never turn my back on, I can't work if I don't feel up to it.
