What you see first in the optical illusion reveals if you’re a critical perfectionist or sensitive and empathetic
A NEW optical illusion has promised to reveal your character type in just a glance.
Depending on what you see first will decide if you are a critical perfectionist or sensitive and empathetic.
The mind test comes from the super popular Psychology Love (@psychologylove100).
He has over 323,000 followers and another 2.8 million likes, all enthralled by his mind-reading tests.
In this post, he presented an image that could be read in two ways, depending on what gamers saw first.
“What did you see first?” he asked. “If you see a feather first on the personality test, it could mean that you’re a great visionary.”
He went on to explain what this meant in greater detail.
“You’re someone who can see the big picture in the long term and make decisions accordingly.
“You’re able to think in the long term and make decisions that will prove useful in the near or distant future.”
This personality type was great also at planning ahead: “You foresee scenarios in advance, so you’re ready to face any obstacle that comes your way.”
People with these character traits were also very thoughtful, he said: “They end to consider the consequences of your actions before carrying them out.”
But it could come at a cost: “However, you can also be too much of a perfectionist and can sometimes be too strict with yourself or others.
“You are strong-willed and can be very determined and persevering. You tend to be very critical and can be very hard on yourself and others.”
For those who saw a woman, however, it was a very different outlook and you were “a very sociable and empathetic person.”
This person could read a room very well: “You know how to adapt to a group and who knows how to listen to and understand others.
“You have a great ability to put yourself in other people’s shoes and understand how they feel and what they want.”
People with this personality trait were also sensitive he reckoned and tended to be protective of others.
“You have a great willingness to adapt to any situation and find solutions to any problem.”
But there was also a downside: “However, you can also be very sensitive and can be easily hurt by the criticism and words of others.
“You tend to worry too much and care about everything that happens around you.”
An inability to take action was also seen in this group: “You may also find it difficult to make decisions and commit yourself to a particular direction.
“You can sometimes be too kind and helpful which can get you into trouble,” he wrote.
Commenters were in awe of the test’s accuracy.
“There’s only one of these I didn’t agree with. Spot on 99 percent,” said this fan.
Another was amazed: “I love your psychology tricks. It’s 100 percent accurate and it gives incredible insight into how human emotions work.”
In the closing comment, this follower said they were slightly unnerved: “Still freaks me out how spot-on these videos are.”
