The big five personality test
My scores after taking the test recorded a score of 61 percent given the internal locus of control.
I am generally in control of my life and tend to articulate this aspect by being involved in terms
of my physical and emotional health. Further, I believe that I run my own destiny, therefore I
tend to work hard given the various aspects of my life and give my all. I am an optimistic person
that believes in achieving greatness. I do not give up easily and believe that good things come to
those that work for it.
