Do you want to do a personality test? Sometimes they look funny at first sight, but they usually encourage a brief psychology examination of our self-perception. For this one, you only have to look at three pictures of a wolf and select the one that you think is the strongest. That’s it… Your vision of yourself, your intuition, and even your social perception—how you think other people see you—can all be reflected in that decision.
It’s a light, reflecting personality test rather than a strict psychology test. Consider it just a short time to observe character traits and the sense of inner power you have.
People see these test as a way of describing something we are already aware of in ourselves; skills like empathy, resiliency, sensitivity, and occasionally leadership.

How the test works
In order to give intuition priority over analysis, the test sets up a very short, time-bound decision: 5 seconds.
- Look at the image.
- Pick the wolf that feels strongest to you.
- Once you choose the image, you compare your pick with the text below.
Remember: it’s only a light representation for traits you may already be familiar with.
What the wolf you choose says about you
If you chose wolf 1:
This images highlights strong determination; keeping your focus on your goals and persevering when the trip is challenging. You prefer to establish your own rules and stick to your own values rather than following the norms of others.
Friends see you as a reliable individual who will stick by you through difficult times. You cherish loyalty, so you are cautious about who you allow close to you, but when you trust someone, it solidifies.
Although your independence gives you a sense of purpose, it can also make you appear stubborn at times. Since you prefer to be in control of your course, you typically don’t allow outside pressure to change it.
If you chose wolf 2:
Your decision suggests that you should lead with compassion. People are drawn to your energy and may perceive as honest and friendly. While keeping a strong sense of self, you have a compassionate side and pay attention to the needs of those who are close to you.
You have an approach that makes people feel comfortable around you, and they frequently describe you as trustworthy and hardworking. And you feel better with strong connections than surrounded by big groups of people.
You can seem carefree or youthful to others, but there’s a powerful motivation that improves the lives of those around you.
If you chose wolf 3:
This wolf leans to a more sentimental and romantic nature. You cherish harmony, beauty, and strong connections with others. Because you create a mix between sensitivity and toughness, loved ones probably feel comfortable with you.
However, being open can also make you vulnerable. You can find it difficult to move over small setbacks and take failures personally. When you’re hurt, you tend to retreat into seclusion until your balance is restored.
Your sensitivity encourages genuine connection and inspires creativity, so it’s not a weakness.
A fun introspection game
So, did the choice you made resonated with you?
Once more, this test is more of an invitation to introspection than a scientific assessment. You quickly choose one of the three wolves and consider the description’s possibilities for direction, emotion, and relationship.
Don’t get me wrong, the first impression can be revealing. However, it’s a nice way to explore how you see yourself and how others could see you. Be kind to anything that has an emotional connection. Leave it behind if it doesn’t.
