I’m definitely a doer. I just roll with the flow.

You don’t ever have time to back out but sometimes it gets you in trouble.

Taelyn

I do that too

I’m a doer most the time because I just go with the flow the advantages are I’m never afraid to do something and disadvantages are that it might get me in trouble sometimes

Cole

1/9/2020 10:37:56 am

I said the same thing.

Wylie

1/9/2020 10:38:40 am

I’m about the same

Brayden

I go with the flow to

Jacob

That's how I go to.

Taelyn

I am definitely a doer I really never think before I do anything, I just send it at all times. I feel like the advantages are I have a lot more fun memories from it. The disadvantages are sometimes I make some real bad decisions.

Destiny

I understand fully.

Caleb C

Sometimes we just gotta hope it works out when we do it. Never know what's gonna happen until you try it.

Dakota

I can see that

Owen

1/9/2020 10:40:09 am

Understandable

Troy

1/9/2020 10:40:49 am

Decent

Cheyenne

1/9/2020 10:41:31 am

I respect that.

Loon

1/9/2020 10:42:15 am

What bad decisions

Caleb C

I honestly think I could be both. And some advantages to being a thinker is you are a good problem solver a disadvantage would be you are a slow worker. Being a doer is good for getting things done but if you dont think before you do you will make mistakes.

Riley

I agree that they both have advantages and disadvantages.

Cheyenne

1/9/2020 10:42:26 am

I agree and great explanations.

Loon

1/9/2020 10:42:38 am

I agree with this.

Destiny

1/9/2020 10:37:20 am

I think of myself as more of a thinker but I can be a doer in certain situations. One advantage for being a thinker is that you could be the voice of reason and stop a situation from starting. A disadvantage of being a thinker is not getting enough courage use the power that they hold inside.

Dylan

I am a thinker. It is an advantage because I can process a lot of information at once. It is a disadvantage because I may miss an opportunity if I think to long.

Brayden

1/9/2020 10:41:57 am

I agree with thinking to long may be bad.

Owen

1/9/2020 10:37:36 am

I am a doer most of the time. When a doer you could do something that you might regret later but when a thinker it is less likely to happen.

Brooke

1/9/2020 10:43:21 am

I could see that you would regret something that you didn’t think through.

Cody

1/9/2020 10:37:41 am

I think I’m a doer the disadvantage is you have to deal with the consequences

Caleb C

1/9/2020 10:40:23 am

Yes sometimes it doesn't work out like we planned it to go

Wylie

1/9/2020 10:37:51 am

I consider myself as a doer. I do stuff that I think will work and keep trying and doing it until it’s right.

Cole

1/9/2020 10:39:06 am

Good stuff

Kelton

1/9/2020 10:39:24 am

Me too buddy

Kelton

1/9/2020 10:38:04 am

Honestly just depends on the situations. When it’s a sketchy situation I act on impulsive because there isn’t really time to think. When I do have time I will think before I do something.

Taelyn

1/9/2020 10:39:58 am

I agree with this

Dakota

1/9/2020 10:40:17 am

I feel like you are more of a doer

Cheyenne Ward

1/9/2020 10:38:25 am

I characterize myself as both. An advantage about being a thinker is that you are constantly figuring out new ways to do things, the disadvantage is that you can over think the easiest things. An advantage of being a doer is that you do it and it gets done, a disadvantage to this is that it might not be as creative and seem more plan.

Destiny

1/9/2020 10:39:42 am

I fully agree. We have the same problems.

Charlie

1/9/2020 10:38:52 am

I am a thinker. I like to plan out what I’m doing. The advantages of being a thinker is you can expect what the outcome will be.

Dylan

1/9/2020 10:39:31 am

I agree.

Dakota

1/9/2020 10:39:14 am

I consider myself as a thinker because when ever I get put in a situation I think before I do. A advantage to this is you don’t get in as much trouble because you think about what can happen to you. A disadvantage would be you don’t act right then and there when you should.

Owen

1/9/2020 10:40:32 am

I agree

Jacob

1/9/2020 10:39:52 am

I am a doer because I like to get things done without thinking before I do it. A good thing is that I can get stuff done on time and fast but can easily make mistakes. It is opposite for the thinkers.

Riley

1/9/2020 10:39:53 am

It depends on the situation, but most of the time I am a doer. The advantages to being a thinker is that most of the time you take time to look at stuff from a different perspective before taking a rash action. The disadvantages are that you might miss out on some opportunities. Being a doer comes with its own pros and cons. Doers often times get more opportunity, but they also sometimes make stupid decisions in the heat of the moment.

Dylan

1/9/2020 10:41:09 am

I agree with everything you said.

Brooke

1/9/2020 10:41:48 am

I agree that you are definitely a doer.

Loon

1/9/2020 10:40:49 am

I’m a little bit of both it just depends on the situation at hand. Thinking before is definitely an advantage because you know the consequences. When just doing something you don’t think about the consequences and could make mistakes.

Riley

1/9/2020 10:42:51 am

Smart man.

Brooke

1/9/2020 10:41:00 am

I’m definitely a thinker not a doer. An advantage to being a thinker is that I assess a situation so that I am less likely to hurt myself. A disadvantage is that I am sometimes not willing to try new things because all I do is think about the possibility’s.

Sydnee

1/9/2020 10:42:32 am

It depends on the situation. If it requires me to think I’ll think about it for a minute but other than that I’m a doer.

Tyrell Wortley

I’m a little bit of both a doer and thinker, I just choose when to be one over the other in different situations. Some good things about doers is that they understand the severity of the world in different ways as well as tend to be impulsive at times. The cons to them, however, is that they can get too obsessed over these things that they can loose themselves to the negativity of the world. Thinkers on the other hand think about things before acting on them. Unfortunately, they can miss opportunities of these thoughts.
