#102A  CONSCIENTIOUS, EFFICIENT

I typically aim to do what is right or fair, especially to do my work or duty carefully, thoroughly, and efficiently —minimizing wasted materials, energy, money, time or effort—and taking responsibilities / obligations to others seriously. When entrusted with managing something someone cares about, I tend to be a good steward. I pay attention to details. When I feel stressed because I know something isn’t right, I typically feel I must fix it. So, I’m often putting things in order or am in task-oriented mode. I’m happiest when I’m busy.

OR

#102B  EASY-GOING, DISORDERLY, CAVALIER

I'm typically relaxed and tolerant in how I approach my work, duties I have, or responsibilities I've accepted.  I'm not easily upset or worried about obligations I have to others. I can generally live with an associated lack of careful organization or irregularities in how I go about my activities. I try to minimize the stress in my life and to not “sweat the small stuff.” As such I’ve acquired a reputation (undeserved?) for being lazy, and having a cavalier attitude.  So, seldom am I asked to manage what others value

Note: With version 4.0, these themes are new to the Project Worldview theme structure in March, 2019.
