What did you see first in the optical illusion image?
1. If you saw a pit surrounded by trees first in the image above…
Then it means that you are a highly sensitive person, and what others think about you matters a lot to you. You are a people-pleaser, and you like making friends or being surrounded by people– because of this you also struggle with setting healthy boundaries with others or standing up for yourself when needed.“You are someone who cares a lot about what other people think and say to you. Sometimes, even when other people unintentionally make a slightly offensive remark, you will think about it for the rest of your day… You are easily influenced by other people and have a hard time making decisions,” Mia said.
2. If you saw an eye first in the image above…
Then it indicates that you are anxious and often worried about the future, even if you are doing pretty well in life at in the present moment. You work very hard and people admire you for that along with your creativity. But, you need to pause and reflect to appreciate the little things in life a bit more. You also need to love yourself more and be less hesitant in order to live life to the fullest.Explaining this, Mia said, “You are someone who lacks a sense of security, not financially but emotionally. Even though you’re not doing too bad right now, you feel very anxious about the future… You want to make big improvements in your life but at the same time, change makes you uncomfortable and you’d rather stay in your comfort zone.”How accurate was this particular test result for you?
