Quiz: Choose the cup you think you’ll fill first to reveal if you’re narcissistic

Visual tests do not measure intelligence or diagnose personality definitively. However, they can reveal something very interesting: how you relate to certainty, doubt, and the way you make decisions.

This test consists of looking at an image with several cups connected by pipes. They all receive water at the same time, but only one will be filled first.
The motto is simple: choose the cup you think will be filled first, without over-analyzing.

The key is not so much in getting it right, but in how you choose.

If you chose the A Cup

You trust yourself, sometimes more than the process

Choosing the A Cup usually reflects strong personal confidence. You tend to rely on your intuition, your experience, and your ability to decide quickly. You don’t like to complicate things and tend to see indecision as a weakness.

You are probably a determined, assertive and independent person. In leadership roles, this confidence can make you effective and respected.

Risk arises when that confidence leads you to overlook hidden variables. It is not a lack of intelligence, but excessive speed: acting before verifying all the details.

Strength: Trust and decisiveness
Blind spot: Skipping verification

If you chose the B Cup

You seek balance and reassurance before committing

Those who choose the B Cup tend to value stability, prudence and fairness. You don’t rush and prefer solutions that feel reasonable and emotionally safe.

You are considerate, cooperative, and caring. People trust you because you don’t react impulsively.

The difficulty arises when you have to decide under pressure. Your need for certainty can slow you down when the situation calls for speed.

Strength: Emotional Balance and Thoughtfulness
Blind Spot: Excessive Caution

If you chose the C Cup

You’re methodical and focused on details

Choosing the C Cup indicates that you don’t trust appearances. You follow the logic, analyze the structure, and pay attention to each connection before deciding.

You tend to be analytical, observant, and patient. You detect mistakes that others do not see and you perform well in complex situations.

The challenge appears when it is difficult to let go. Checking over and over again even when the answer is already clear can lead to mental fatigue or make you miss opportunities.

Strength: Precision and logic
Blind spot: Perfectionism

If you chose the D Cup

You enjoy complexity and intellectual control

The D-Cup attracts people who enjoy mental challenges. Following the pipes was stimulating and satisfying.

You tend to believe that intelligence arises from going deeper, from understanding the why of each step. This makes you a great strategist and problem solver.

However, sometimes you can dismiss simple solutions just because they seem too obvious. Assuming that the right thing to do must be complex can work against you.

Strength: Strategic
Thinking Blind Spot: Excessive Intellectualization

If you chose the E Cup

You think intuitively and emotionally

Choosing the E-Cup usually indicates that you were guided more by the feel than the exact mechanics. You sensed where the flow should go, not just where it seemed to go.

You are empathetic, intuitive, and people-oriented. You think about consequences, meanings, and effects beyond the technical.

Risk appears when intuition acts alone. Emotions, without logical support, can cause important details to be overlooked.

Strength: Emotional
Intelligence Blind Spot: Avoiding Logic

If you chose the F Cup

You are bold, self-confident and self-aware

The F-Cup is usually chosen quickly. If it was your choice, you probably rely a lot on your first impression and don’t like to doubt yourself.

You are charismatic, assertive, and comfortable being seen as confident and trustworthy. Others may look to you for reference.

The danger is that security replaces curiosity. When that happens, blind spots that are difficult to detect can appear.

Strength: Personal
Safety Blind Spot: Ignoring Hidden Details

The true vision behind the test

This exercise does not test intelligence.
Test your relationship with certainty.

• Do you rush to find answers or do you tolerate uncertainty?
• Do you trust your instincts or the process more?
• Do you want to get it right quickly or be thorough?

The cup that fills up first matters less than the way you chose it.

And perhaps the most telling truth is this:

The smartest minds aren’t the fastest, but the most aware of what they might be missing.
