Check out the personality tests below to better understand your significant others. Cal and I did it and it really helped us relate better with one another. Our communication increased by at least 100%. Check it out from my book Your Treasured Marriage (see the book tab for more info):
“At some point we had taken Gary Smalley and Dr. John Trent’s Personality Inventory, which is based on characteristics demonstrated by four different animals: Lions, Otters, Golden Retrievers, and Beavers.1
Cal scored predominately in the Otter classification. Otters tend to be fun-loving, entertainers, enthusiastic motivators, creative, verbal, relaxed by being with people, and they love to talk. My main personality related to the Lion, which exhibits leadership qualities.
Lions are take-charge, visionary, sometimes intimidating people. Not surprisingly, too much of this quality can create a problem in personal relationships, like marriage. Duh! As you will soon see, that was me every time I turned around—causing relationship issues.
In any event, with Cal feeling so frustrated and depressed, we sat down to talk. Our kids were almost grown, so accepting and acknowledging my leadership qualities (above), my choleric personality (described in the next chapter), and my oldest child family position, we decided I was ready to work full-time again. I encouraged Cal to expand our fundraising company and start doing professional emceeing, thus acknowledging his Otter-type personality, his youngest child need for attention, and his desire to be the center of attention. He loved being in front of audiences and he was good at it.”
