Inner Saboteur
Try to answer the following questions as honestly as possible. Try not to think about each one for too long, it is better if you go with your initial sense. Try to keep a broad sense of how you are across all areas of your life: work, home, social situations etc. You may notice that you are a particular way in one specific context (such as work) but not like this in general. Try to answer the questions from the more general context.
