WHAT DOOR WOULD YOU WALK THROUGH?
~ PERSONALITY TEST ~

Pick the door that looks the most appealing to you. This might reveal a few things about your personality. Let us know what door you picked and if the answer was accurate for you. Feel free to SHARE!

1 - You are a fun individual that likes to keep things light and airy. You are all about nurturing others and appreciating the simple luxuries in life; such as your fine dishware, favorite candle or eating artisan bread from the local bakery. You most likely have a love for traveling and other cultures. You truly want the best for everyone and love creating a welcoming atmosphere. It is important to remember that if you ever feel that you need help or support, it is OK to just ask someone.

2- You are clean and simple and don’t like any frills. You might strive to have a clean and perfect existence; but is it totally worth it? Don’t you feel that there is something missing? You are all about your personal achievements and you take pride in your work or career. Although you might be on track with your career path or have a few diplomas/ certificates on your wall, you need to spend more time on developing yourself as a person. Remember... the real you. Life is all about creating balance, surrounding yourself with color and creating memorable adventures. If you are finding that you have been taking the safe road lately, try veering off the beaten path. You might surprise yourself!

3 – It is obvious you are a quirky individual and very interesting to the people that you let into your life. You are good at many things... a “Jack or Jill of all trades”. You are an artistic individual that expresses yourself in many ways. You can make something out of anything and are not a stranger to your local thrift shop. You can basically make vintage “new” again. It is easy to get stuck inside the house or inside your urban bubble; but remember that you have to get out and connect with nature. It is time to come down out of the clouds and get grounded!

4 – You are an old soul that can be slightly dramatic. You are a very artistic person that loves to express yourself through writing, music, art or some kind of expression. You are a dichotomy; for you can be very open and friendly, yet closed and deeply private. You often have your guard up, keeping your thoughts and troubles to yourself. Although you might think that nobody will truly understand you, if you allow yourself to open up and share your feelings, you will feel so much better. Deep down you are not aright with any imperfections and you feel the need to come across as “the rock” in any group situation. Know that people are willing to share their feelings with you and want you to share your feelings with them.

5 – It is very important for you to fit in and feel as though you are a major contributor in every situation. You always have things going on, for being productive is what makes you feel at ease. Your busy-ness can sometimes cause the need for you to become more aware of what is really going on around you. What does your body want you to be doing? It is alright to relax on a Monday and simply just BE. Feel free to take some time to figure out what you really love to do. Possibly try some new hobbies or activities that are out of your normal routine. Explore being you, even if that means relaxing. Life is not just about how many muffins you can make in a single batch or how many fit-it jobs you can do in one day.

6 – You are a confident person with an eye for detail. You can come across as someone who is all together and exciting; yet you are just YOU on the inside. You care about your appearance and how the world sees you, yet the inside your home or car is probably a total mess! Your personality can be self destructive, for you could turn against yourself when the going gets tough. The life of a person who is a living a total contradiction... has got to be a difficult one. Remember to breathe and just relax. Life is not just about pleasing others. Truth is, the world isn’t always watching... Take time to reflect on who you truly want to be? What is it that you truly want to do?

7 – You are a simple minimalist that always has important things to do. You care for others and find your time anything but your own. You surround yourself with meaningful things, for you are very sentimental. Family and friends are very important to you and you would do anything for them. Not putting yourself first has made your life a safe and complacent one. What is it that can enrich your life today? What will make your life more colorful and enjoyable? Even though life gives you labels such as a mother, father, wife, husband, teacher, manager, etc; remember that your life is still YOUR life. Take a moment to decide what you want your future to look like. It is perfectly acceptable to want wonderful things to happen to you. Carpe Diem.

8 – Your fun and playful personality keeps you young and youthful. Although you are easy going, you tend to have lower self-confidence and anxiety about specific things in your life. You are usually unorganized; yet don’t even know where to start to help yourself to fix the messy problem. You are a proud individual but you need to learn to love yourself more. You need to take the time to find yourself through self expression. How are you currently expressing yourself to the world? Remember that there are people around you that can help you, but you need to let them know you are willing to receive help. Life is easier when you let people in.

9 – You are a quirky person that is always making things work. You are an amazing problem solver that prides yourself on your thrifty living. You like to live an uncomplicated life and usually get by with the basics. Why would you need anything else? You are very easy to please and love doing things for others. Whether it be fixing your neighbors toilet, building a bird house for your mother out of reclaimed wood or helping your friend find a great living room set at the thrift shop; you are always there to lend a hand. Remember that life is special. It is OK to treat yourself to amazing things. You are special too!

10 – You are one who truly appreciates stability and wholeness. You are a reliable person that takes pride in their love of quality and detail. Some might say “cookie cutter”, but you say dependable! You always know what you are getting because you have checked the consumer reports. You love safety and security in all parts of your life. You prefer not to have anything frivolous or extra, if you can’t see the use for it. Chances are you have some sort of creative side that you have curbed in some way. You might love scrap-booking, music or art; yet would never try to make it your career. You feel your problems are your own and nobody needs to be burdened with them. Just keep in mind that exposing your true self to the world (or your neighbors) is not a crime. We are all human.

This is the entry way of our home. What happens inside of these doors is important to me. I guard my home as a wife & a mother. As God leads me, I make sure that the people that walk through these doors have a heart for Him. I make sure that there's no division & that whoever is within these doors are for my marriage & my family. I make sure that our friends that walk though these doors know our stance on marriage & family Gods way & I'm not afraid to speak up when I believe our family is being threatened by outside people or things. And its not insecurity, its protection. Wife: it's important that you pray & know the constant heartbeat of what is going on in your home. Take your families issues to God in prayer on a regular basis. Cry out to God for your husbands sin. Cry out to God for your children's sin. Don't just sit around & leave your doors unlocked as satan tries to have a field day in your life. Lock him out! He wants to destroy your marriage & your family! Fight back! There's a reason why God calls the wife a "keeper of the home." Because you are sensitive & discerning. You know when something isn't right & you are in tune to Christ. Instead of nagging your family, get on your face for them before God. This fight ain't physical, but spiritual. So, are your doors of your home left open or are they guarded from the enemy?

This time last year I made myself a promise... Fix everything I thought was wrong with me.. I wasn't thrilled about my body, I was afraid I'd become bitter after my breakup, and I wasn't sure I believed in true love anymore. I started going to the gym 5 days a week. I told myself every food I missed would be waiting on me in 30 days if I didn't notice change. No sweets, no fried foods, only good carbs, lots of veggies, and lean protein. No secret really, I just did the right thing. And when it got hard I got a cookie. It taught me nothing great comes without sacrifice. I laid my pain on the altar and prayed for a clean heart. I spoke in love even when it hurt. I let the people who I trusted know when I wasn't okay. I gave myself permission to not have it together. Before I knew it I went from stretching myself to being myself. I became the hope I wanted to see in the world. I faced disappointment with positivity instead of bitterness or negativity. I didn't want to be one of those people always finding wrong in the world. In 2014, I plan to continue my work on me... I plan to love without fear, laugh from the heart, and trust God in uncertainty. Our year may not have been easy, the days ahead are unpredictable, but I plan to look at each obstacle as a way to become better, stronger, and wiser. I want you to be with me on this journey! Dear 2014.. We have no chill 😘❤️
