Your Authenticity Self Analysis

This is a simple test designed to give you an indication of how authentically you are currently living your life. For each question, consider which of the two
alternatives is most true for you. The brackets A and B are where you have a tendency to feel a lack of authenticity in that area. Brackets C and D are where
you feel comfortable most or all of the time in that area. Place an x in the set of brackets that answers the question most truthfully for you.
Scoring : For every x in the far left column “A” give yourself 1, B=2, C=3, D=4. Add up the numbers for all 20 rows will produce a range between 20 and 80.
