is like a personality self assessment version of the aptitide test i am an #aptitudetestadvocate for.

that, but for aptitudes.

and split into a test per aptitude (... hrmm, and/or not. interesting new idea.)
but the idea being you get a read out of you, and see where you are on the bellcurve, and see where your relative strengths and weaknesses are. especially useful if you've a poor idea of your aptitides (or, as in sapa's, your personality).

see the venn diagram in your mind of the circles for aptitudes and personality, some overlap... or personality a smaller circle in aptitudes? each personality trait and strength makes one more apt for different things.

[(i'm usually descriptively comparing these aptitude test to iq tests (which are a mere 3 parts of a several dozens parts aptitude test), instead of to personality tests, but the result graphic's so similar to how i imagine aptitude test results are best represented. the logical choice, a ribbed spine chart to display sets of bellcurve positions)]

would love to know if there is already openly available, online or otherwise accessable, a broad spectrum aptitude test.

i know they exist, hidden by bureacrats in offices of employment and wellfare. part time training staff snuck one out for me to try some of, in 2000 iirc. would love to see who/where's already making such important thing available to the public, for everybody's benefit.

i've been reading wallace d wattles' "the science of getting rich" today, and chapter 13's about getting into the right business, the one that fits for you. that'd be a lot easier for everybody to better fit what they do, if they knew what fit them ahead of time. fair enough for learning more outside what your best aptitudes, and for doing what you love even if you suck at it (~may get better, may not be the point, may be useful), but if could already be shown what you have an aptitude for, before even trying, you could then go directly to it. each according to their skill, as they so self direct, once advised by some measures to give better indicators than ignorant whim or obedience to those who do not know either.

we can have #somuchheadroom when allowing outselves to do what we're good at, by simply allowing ourselves to know what we're good at, and to have the choice to do it.

and perhaps just as importantly... to know when to get out of the way too.

#aptitudetestadvocate

i'll re-tell this story again.

when i was in a training institute, one of the part-time tutors was fascinated by me, and, snuck out an #aptitudetest from the gov employment and "social security" institution from across the road that she also worked at, for me to take. i only got to take about half of its couple dozen or so tests within its whole range of tests. it tested not just #iq which you may have heard of, (itself separated to 3 tests, for #visualinteligence #verbalinteligence and #mathsinteligence), but then also #emotionalinteligencequotient #eq, #wisdomquotient #wq, psychelogical, psychiatric, intraspective, introspective, philosophical, metaphystical, spiritual, religious, moral, ethical, sporting, physical, mechanical, physiological, dance, musical, ... social, political, ... i think (diminishing certainty of recollection) ecconomic, accounting, geometric, artistic, aesthetic, biological, genetic, environmental, spacial, geocentric, medical, electromagnetic, chemical, alchemical, astrological, psychedelic, theological, natural, scientific, sentience, ... ... and a few others i forget. it astonished me that this wasn't the first piece on the curriculum, the first thing taught to us in all schooling, and re-referenced & re-tested as frequently as we liked.

everything else looked liked nonsensical fumbling in the dark without this knowledge.

even just the array of the tests, their specificity, those tests, just to see them listed, was a mind opening revelation. perhaps you too were a little too hemmed in in your thinking by the noise of the logical/emotional as-if-there's-only-two. understandable, given how much lip service that gets.

i see this as a piece of #emancipationtechnology, that if were availed freely openly to us all, we would all be better empowered to do what we're better suited to and do better, and not mistake ourselves better in areas we may not be, and find areas we may not have realised we excel at, and find better ways to interactively deploy ourselves, and on and on. find out things you dont know. be better by it. the point being... this sort of #fullspectrumaptitudetest should be availed to us all so we fathom ourselves to so well deploy ourselves to make all better by it. such tests should not be hidden in the bottom of a cupboard. these full spectrum aptitude tests should be availed to all.
