Are you eager to learn many or all different unrelated new and other things like props, juggling or circus-utils and -tools, styles,
Do you try to be a complete juggler / artist? Learning even what you rather dislike?

  [ "different unrelated new things" means "really different", no helpful related preliminaries, no related upgrades from like ball-trick to same with clubs or going from 3b cascade to 5b cascade or learning shoulder throws after mastering backcrosses or doing them reverse or alike, and not just altering a siteswap. - But rather e.g. diving into a new trick-family, e.g. use rings or e.g. sit on an unicycle for the first time or alike, or e.g. an upto then never tried sort of body-moves or alike, or simply daring and getting into a very hard trick.   "rather dislike" means what you've always been avoiding or hated or been too awkward with, e.g. doing gap's and holds-preliminaries, or e.g. disliked fountains (evens andor separated andor uncrossing) versus cascades (unevens crossing), or e.g. being scared of tall giraffes. ]

1. - I am perfectly okay with what I do and what line I'm on and stick to that. [=not at all "complete", few "new"]
2. - I casually widen my repertoire whenever e.g. I'm done with something prior or e.g. sth. new (& different & unrelated) fascinates me. [=but far from "complete". =No.]
3. - I eagerly take what i can get, for fun only, and it's no issue avoiding what doesn't seem to suit me. [=open & longing for new & other things, but "complete": no.]
4. - I actually do work on and want to fairly master at least the basics of any prop and util comes under my hands, all basics patterns, except for it would mean harder work over longer period of time .. and only aside of cultivating my specialities or favourites. [=yes but.]
5. - I partly work myself even into what I dislike a lot, e.g. because its common skill, or because I think its necessary part of being a juggler / artist, or because I can't be ashamed of not being able to do a basic trick or having that basic skill, or because I want that distinct result (trick or skill). [but no way "every- or anything or complete"]
6. - I even expect myself to learn (possibly everything) what I even dislike for wanting to be complete as an artist. [=Yes!]
7. - Yes. (other)
8. - No. (other)
9. - neither, nor. / yes and no. / too much overlap in choices. / "Is there tea & cookies?" / "I am not voting on this poll." / other "other" ..

  [ The scale is meant to go from "few new" (1. & 2.) over "lotsa new for fun" (3.), "if not too hard or longtime work" (4.) upto "even everything I dislike" (5. & 6.). - Else, please choose whatever comes near! ]
Thanks 4 voting :o)
