First one, NO DOUBT.
I agree in principle, but not strongly. While I'm naturally inclined to do what's mentioned above, depending on the situation and matter at hand, I don't think it's always necessarily embarrassing to speak your mind.
I kind of relate to both. I generally do the first, but I am always open to getting as much second-hand information as I can, and take it into consideration when reaching a conclusion but still trusting my own experience the most.
I do both. In some cases I find the 2nd one somewhat more reliable I guess. But it's about the same to me because in both cases I look for information given by someone knowledgeable on the subject.
Hmm, I don't know. I am somewhere in between I guess.
2nd one.
I don't relate to either one. Maybe slightly to the second, but I'm not sure. I usually worry about not being accepted.
First one, which is not to say that I do little or not enough. I do plenty, but I often wish I could have done more or done something differently. This is mainly related to me often setting very high standards for myself, excepting more and striving for perfection.
Probably the second. I strongly dislike physical confrontation but physical risks are usually alright to take, sometimes even admirable.
This sounds stupid, and I can't choose. It's very subjective with "poetry" being in question. Anyways, the way these are written, I don't have a preference.
