A couple months ago I attended one of my fraternity chapters’ meetings to share some perspective. Part of the conversation included me asking each brother present to write down three words which they felt described me fully. i finally got around to compiling the responses.
I received 28 slips of paper back.
The top responses?
At four occurrences:
opinionated
With three occurrences are:
calm
knowledgeable
responsible
And occurring twice each are:
honest
honourable
kind
respectful
stern
The rest?
arrogant
articulate
compassionate
conserved
cool headed in tight situations
dedicated
determined
don’t know him
easy going
eccentric
fashionable
forthcoming
frail
frank
friendly
full of yourself at times
fun
gentlemanly
groomed
hippy
humble
idealistic
intelligent
knowable
leader
magnanimous
my brother
opportunist
philosophical
profligacy
punctual
put together
quiet
reliable
rude
self-efficating
serious
sexy
smart
soft spoken
stoner
stranger
strong willed
superiority complex
supportive
understanding
unfamiliar
unknown
unordinary
unpredictable
welcoming
well dressed
well spoken
well read
Hmm… what three words would you say best describe me? As wholly as possible?
