The test is adapted to the model, for our strengths in character, of Dr. Martin Seligman (Father of Positive Psychology) and his book “Prosperity”.
Strengths
1. Curiosity / interest in the world
You are a curious person who is wide open to life. Interest in the world shows an orientation towards the new and flexibility towards the different. Curious people not only tolerate insecurity, but are intrigued by it. Curiosity can be specific (for example, interest in the water lily) or global (openness to everything).
Curiosity is directly related to the new. You get bored quickly because passive intake of information does not motivate you.
The curious person loves to discover and study, to be interested in something simply for his own sake. It is a desire to find an answer, to start something new or to learn new facts. Search for new experiences, places, meetings with new people or answers to questions.
