You arrive five minutes early and end up waiting for everyone else. Like Fogg, you feel calmer with a trip planned down to the minute, yet when things go wrong, you're the coolest head in the room, already pulling out Plan B. You don't talk much, but when you act, you act.

Things a Phileas Fogg type often says

  • We leave in five minutes.
  • Just stick to the plan.
  • No problem. There's a plan B.

In a group, I'm

Schedule keeper and timekeeper

As a friend, I'm

The friend who always keeps promises, the one you can count on

When stressed

You rewrite the schedule to steady yourself. Once the plan is set, you're remarkably calm.

Sound familiar, Phileas Fogg type?

  • You say little, but when you speak it's final
  • When plans go wrong, you reason calmly instead of panicking
  • Before a trip you plan the schedule hour by hour
  • You trust clocks and numbers over dreamy talk

Where you shine

  1. Unshakable calm

    When the train stops and the plan collapses, your face doesn't change. While everyone panics, you calmly find the next option first.

  2. Plans to the minute

    You plan trips and homework to the minute and stick to it. Always early, you're the most dependable person around.

  3. Bold when it counts

    You don't agonize. Once you've judged, you make even big decisions boldly and own them to the end.

Watch out for

When you watch the clock, not people

Focused on the schedule, you can miss that the person beside you is struggling or wants to enjoy the moment.

Try thisSometimes look at your friend's face before the plan. Fogg, too, found someone more precious than time at journey's end.

When you hide feelings too well

Because you always seem calm, nobody notices when you're happy or struggling.

Try thisSay it, even briefly: good when it's good, hard when it's hard. People want to know how you feel.

A famous scene

At the Reform Club, Fogg bets a fortune that he can go around the world in eighty days—and leaves that very evening.

A line from the book

"The unforeseen does not exist," quietly replied Phileas Fogg.
