You have a need for other people to like and admire you, and yet you tend to be critical of yourself. While you have some personality weaknesses you are generally able to compensate for them.
You have considerable unused capacity that you have not turned to your advantage. Disciplined and self-controlled on the outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure on the inside. At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing.
You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations. You also pride yourself as an independent thinker and do not accept others' statements without satisfactory proof. But you have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others.
At times you are extroverted, affable, and sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary, and reserved. Some of your aspirations tend to be rather unrealistic.

I think personality analyses are like those NFL bet picking services. People remember and appreciate hits more than misses. An NFL betting service knows it can just pick each team for 50% of new customers and the people who lose will never come back, but the people who win will come back 3 more times, even if the next 3 are losses, because they won that first time.
My quibbles; I am not critical of myself and I don't have unused capacity - heck, I instead think I have wildly exceeded my capacity and managed to Forrest Gump my way into pretty good career moves despite any qualifications or ability.
