Your Results

If you scored 3
Congratulations, you are a well rounded person without chips on either shoulder.
If you scored less than 3
Oh dear, it doesn't seem that you're able to see the big picture. Anything worth doing will have some less pleasant intermediary steps, but they're just part of the process, not the final destination. You need to take a more positive view, looking at the benefits of your goal rather than focusing on the difficulties of getting there.
Take a deeper look at your motivations - if you're simply using disparaging terms focussing on the difficulties of an aspiration to cast other people's wishes or beliefs in a negative light, isn't that a little blinkered? If you think they're wrong, wouldn't you be better engaging with them and explaining your reasons rather trying to put them down all the time? What do you feel 3rd parties who don't have firm views on the subject will think of the way you are behaving?
Now, do the survey again , but think more carefully this time!
