Are you a Joan, Marilyn or someone else?

I thought this quiz looked fun, and it was fairly accurate.

Who are you?


You Are a Joan!

You are a Joan -- "I need to succeed"

 Joans are energetic, optimistic, self-assured, and goal oriented.

 

How to Get Along with Me

  • * Give me honest, but not unduly critical or judgmental, feedback.   
  • * Help me keep my environment harmonious and peaceful.   
  • * Don't burden me with negative emotions.   
  • * Tell me you like being around me.   
  • * Tell me when you're proud of me or my accomplishments.

What's Hard About Being a Joan
