Firstly, communication is the way you communicate with
others, and it’s either direct or indirect. In fact, I think communication is
the most important skill of all life skills. Moreover, I strongly believe that
both polarities should be used. Some cases need indirect communication skills
and other needs direct ones. Being direct to a close person of yours is ok, but
being direct with a stranger is not always ok, because the close person will
understand and get your point without getting hurt unlike the stranger.
Moving on to context. It can be formal or informal. In my
point of view, I think that in some cases you have to be formal, and informal
in other. Lets take this as an example, an employee cant act informal with his
boss. There should be a red line that the employee should consider and try not
to cross it. On the other hand, talking to a friend of yours in an informal way
is not a big deal, its actually okay.
Destiny can be directive or directed. In fact, directive is
when you take control of your own life and make your own choices. Whereas
directed is when someone else takes control of your life. According to that,
some parents take control of their children’s life and don’t give them the
freedom to make their own choices.
Last but not least, expression, and it can be concealed or
revealed. Some people are more likely to conceal their expressions they don’t
get to show you how do they really feel about a certain topic, and some are
complete the opposite.

Based on the CMI result, I can make the following
conclusions about the dimensions and polarities that are more likely to
describe me.
In the communication category, I tend to be more direct than
indirect, and so does my group. In fact, I am a more direct oriented person and
I totally agree with that, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t get to be indirect
in some cases.
According to my questionnaire results, I seem to be a little
bit more formal than informal, and its true! I really consider being formal in
some situations and informal in other.
Moving to destiny, I tend to be more directive than directed
and it’s totally true. My parents gave me the freedom to take control of my
life and by that I can make my own decisions. But surly there are some lines
that can’t be crossed.
Lastly, I tend to be more conceal oriented and I strongly
agree. I prefer to keep my feelings to myself without expressing them to
others. On the other hand, there are times I feel like my emotions should be
expressed, but in a controlled way.

I think that the results may change a little over the becoming years because nothing remains the same and there might be some lessons in the future that can make me change something to better, but for the mean time I’m satisfied with the results.
