    Your Element Is Earth
    You excel at planning and strategizing.
    You could be a champ at chess or Survivor.

    Well grounded, you are able to be realistic and rationalize.
    On the inside, you have a hard core. It's tough to phase you.

    You are super productive, and you are able to think anything through.
