The PIG Test

When we travel around the country, we often do a series of "Attitude Adjustment Exercises." The exercises or games are great visual learning tools for our programs.

One of the favorite exercises we do is called "The Pig Test." It's a great ice breaker and a great way for people to learn about themselves.

Frank first took the test almost 20  years ago. Now it's something we share with people around the world.

We've decided to share the test on our blog. Take the test and when you're done, feel free to share it with others.
