This puzzle is more than just counting squares—it reveals your problem-solving style and provides a glimpse into your personality. Narcissistic individuals often trust their first instincts without questioning, leading to hasty conclusions. On the other hand, open-minded people tend to take their time, carefully reviewing their work and recognizing possible mistakes. The way you approach this task can uncover deeper aspects of your character.
To count the squares correctly, you must account for: small squares (individual units), medium squares (combinations of smaller units), and large squares (the entire grid). Your final count can indicate specific traits: fewer than 6 squares suggests impulsiveness and overconfidence, 6 to 9 squares shows moderate awareness but potential neglect of details, and 10 to 13 squares reflects thoroughness, open-mindedness, and self-awareness. This exercise demonstrates how your problem-solving methods can reveal key personality traits, from overconfidence to careful analysis.
