I scored 59/100 for "some signs" of being a workaholic. My childhood was very different than yours; Dad had a standard workday and Mom stayed at home until we were teens. We had activities but also down time. I think my drive to work stems from being told I was a success when I achieved (good grades, a good school project, a performance). And now, work projects are the main items in my life with a goal, where someone might tell me "good job". And I struggle at jobs when I don't get feedback and doubt my performance!
Yay, Jane! So happy to hear from you:) It's kinda refreshing to take a minute and reflect like this. Thanks for the share, and I'm glad you tried the quiz. Sounds like you've got a handle on what makes you tick. Don't you have a new book arriving on the scene soon or do I have that wrong?
I enjoyed reading this., as always.
THANK YOU, MICHELLE! I ALWAYS love reading your posts as well. Please post a link here for my readers to enjoy your thoughtful work! ~hugs~
