Whats your self esteem level? self quiz | Susan Liddy International

You and your boyfriend have plans to go out Friday night and catch that new chick flick, "So Over You," that you've really been dying to see. As you approach the theater, he suddenly says, "Wouldn't you rather watch 'Guns Ablaze' (shoot 'em up movie) instead?" You respond:

"Well, we had agreed we were going to watch 'So Over You!' tonight. Maybe next week we can make a date to see your guy movie instead?"

"Ohh... well, if you really don't want to watch my movie, we don't have to..."

"Listen dude, if you had said you wanted to see 'Guns Ablaze', you should have said something. I'm here to watch 'So Over You,' with or without you!"

"Okay... I guess your pick would probably be better anyway..." (even though you have zero interest in shoot 'em up movies and would never watch one by yourself!)

You're out at your favorite sushi place with friends, waiting anxiously for the food to arrive. When the server finally brings your meal, it's not what you ordered. You:

Politely inform the server that there must have been a misunderstanding; this isn't what you ordered, and please return it for the correct meal.

Tell the waitress that this wasn't what you ordered, but smile and say, "That's okay... I'll eat it anyway!" (even though you only feel lukewarm about what was served).

Throw a tantrum loud enough for the entire restaurant to hear. Announce to everyone that "The service here is terrible! I want this removed from the bill, and I'm never eating here again!"

Avoid saying anything and just eat what she gives you

Your husband comes home looking stressed, and doesn't ask how your day was. You...

Ask him (approaching cautiously) how HIS day was.

Feel slighted, but consider that maybe he had a rough day and will warm up for conversation after some rest and a good meal.

Proceed to regale him for his rudeness, then dump a laundry list of complaints on him for all the areas where he lacks.

Decide that he never really loved you, go upstairs and cry your eyes out.

Your thoughts about yourself say things like, "I am so stupid (lazy, boring, etc.)", "when will I ever grow up?"

Never

Sometimes

Frequently

Always

A position opens up at work that qualifies as "the next step up" from what you do currently. It would mean more responsibilities and a raise. You've been at your current position for several years. Your immediate reaction to the news is:

Awesome! I'm going to update my resume and go for it!

Hmm... I wonder if I'd be allowed to apply? Maybe I should ask my boss.

About freaking time! I better get this or I swear I'm leaving this company!

I'm not smart/good enough to be considered. I'll just stay where I am - there are other people in our department who deserve this raise more than I do.

You're getting dressed up for a night out on the town. Your thought as you model an outfit in front of the mirror is...

Yeah, baby... I look good tonight!

The black shirt hides my muffin top nicely...

Ahh... this would look so much better if I were (4 inches taller, 30 lbs. lighter, blonde, fill in the blank)...

OMG! I'm a whale... there is no way I'm going out

You're walking down the street when a man stops to politely compliment you on your looks. "You're very pretty," he says with a smile. Your immediate reaction is...

Thanks, that makes me feel great!

Is he talking to me?? (head swivel)

Where is my mace!?

What a liar... he's probably just desperate.

You set goals for yourself and then achieve them...

As a rule

Frequently

Occasionally

Never

If someone puts you down, you:

Decide they must have low self esteem, and feel sad for them but realize you have other, more supportive friends in your life.

Spend some time thinking about what they said, considering if this is something you can improve.

Get angry and tell them where to go!

Feel really bad, but figure you must deserve it.

When you consider accomplishing one of your big goals, you tend to…

Write down each step it will take to get there, and then put your plan into action!

Start planning, but as soon as I meet up with an obstacle or question, stop because I'm too confused, overwhelmed and distracted.

Talk a big game, but never really get the plan moving

Tell no one and do nothing. This way, no one will hold me accountable!

Teresa Lindsey June 11, 2010 at 3:16 am: Love this quiz. Self Esteem is good, but it gave me some things to think about as well. Thanks for posting.
Marian Lindsay November 24, 2010 at 8:40 pm: Everyone who knows me well says my self-esteem needs work, but this came out pretty high. Can you have high self-esteem but low confidence? There are certainly areas where I am not so strong, that weren’t in the survey – so I think I’m a little shakier than I seem.
