Evaluate the results.

Put yourself on one score:

for each answer "Yes" to questions 2-5, 7-10, 14-16, 17, 21, 22, 25, 26-30, 32, 37, 41;

for each answer "No" to questions 6, 13, 18, 20, 24, 31, 36, 38, 39.

Calculate the sum of the scores.

32-28 points. You have a very strong motivation to succeed. You are persistent in achieving the goal, ready to overcome any obstacles.

27-15 points. You mean the motivation to success - the same as most people. Committed to the goal comes to you in the form of tides. Sometimes you want to drop everything because you think that the goal to which you aspire, unattainable.

14-0 points. Motivation to succeed you have pretty weak. Are you satisfied with yourself and your situation. At work, "do not burn." You are convinced that regardless of your efforts everything goes on as usual.
