The ABCs of DISC

The leadership diagnostic that we've had in class definetly gauged my management orientation.  I ended up being Dc which makes sense in a lot of ways.  I am a very dominance oriented person.  Every situation that I encounter, I like being in control and being able to dominate everything that I come across.  Ever since I was a kid, I found that in school, when the class was presented with a group project, I was always the one to voice my opinion and try to get my way to get things done.
Nowadays, even simpler things such as a basketball game can show my dominance.  I hate loosing, so I have no  problem in taking over a game and doing everything in my power to win.  The fact that I am a martial arts instructor can also hint at the fact that I am in fact dominance oriented.  A lot of times in class I have to be able to maintain my dominant stature in order to push my students to the limit and bring out the best in them.
The little 'c' that I've received by this diagnostic test also didn't surprise me because of the fact that I am very conscientious in everything I do, in that I like to analyze and think over any situation I am in from all the possible angles.  I've always followed a saying that my grandfather taught me, "It's better to measure seven times, and cut once." 
A test like this can definetly help to better understand how to interact with other people.  It would be very helpful in a business setting where making one wrong gesture can really offend the person.
As for me, I would not want to be anything other than me.  I like my dominant nature and would not exchange it for any other type.
