Adrenaline Assessment

1. I find myself procrastinating things until the very last moment and feel that I "Work best under pressure."

2. I frequently attempt to "Beat the clock" and arrive late to meetings and events because of my busy schedule.

3. I get juiced or energized from chaos and solving problems or find that it gives me a sense of purpose.

4. The idea of having nothing to do frightens me. I resist boredom.

5. I run out of patience with people, projects or situations. (Standing in line or waiting for something).

6. I feel everything should happen now! If it doesn't, I lose interest.

7. I feel guilty if I take time off from work and find it challenging to make the time for or enjoy recreation or relaxation time.

8. I find myself continually focused on the future (goals, projects, activities, etc.) and not on the moment or focused on today.

9. My life and workspace is cluttered and unorganized. I have lots of books, magazines and newspapers that I've saved to read and catch up on. I haven't been able to see the top of my desk for a while.

10. I feel guilty saying "No." It's not easy for me.

11. I may be a "Yes-aholic." I say, "Yes" first when I may need to say,
"No."

12. My "To do" list never seems to get completed regularly/as scheduled and still keeps growing!

13. I find that I have loose ends and unfinished projects. I jump from one incompletion to the next.

14. I don't have measurements of success (measurable goals, milestones or a routine) or recognize my achievements and relentlessly strive to achieve more with no end in sight. I don't determine when enough is enough. So, it's never enough.

15. I quickly squeeze in my meals while driving, working or on the run.

16. I sacrifice in order to achieve my goals. (Ex: Personal time with family and friends for work related issues, not having time every day for leisurely, enjoyable activities, practicing self care, etc.)

17. I don't have a mapped out path and a series of defined and measurable actions that I take daily and weekly that effortlessly move me towards my goals and where I want to be.

18. I find that I produce irregular, sporadic results with a burst of energy or overexertion, rather than generating the momentum that produces consistent results from consistent daily actions.

19. I feel depleted or exhausted at the end of a day.

20. I'm more reactive rather than responsive and allow external situations or circumstances to control my day (vs. having a routine!)

21. I set unattainable goals and place incredibly high expectations on
myself.

22. I anguish over making decisions or find myself being indecisive (This creates mental paralysis and self doubt vs. exercising choice, trusting myself and the process.)

23. I have a hard time delegating or letting go of certain tasks that someone else can do.

24. If I do delegate certain things, I often do so without clear direction and find that I need to go back and fix or complete the task myself.

25. I over commit and find myself unable to deliver on deadlines or follow through on the commitments I've made.

26. I'm interrupt driven. I allow myself to become easily diverted or distracted by situations, new tasks or people that take me away from what I was initially focused on.

27. I don't have a healthy, rewarding relationship with time. Time is my adversary rather than my ally.

28. I generally don't write things down. I try to manage my responsibilities and tasks in my head.

29. I'm resistant to the idea of having a routine. (If I had a routine, I wouldn't be able to work off adrenaline!)
