I love the concept of this, but it's going to be grim for me. I'll give some justification for each, though, because I AM going to be brutally honest about it.
Self: F
I am well and truly failing this: my physical health is at a stage where I am actually deemed too ill to work, and I doubt this will change until the middle of next year at the absolute earliest. I have improved significantly over the course of the year but, as far as I'm concerned, this remains an F until I'm fit enough to work and start making a life for myself. I imagine my doctors would disagree, but...well, I don't FEEL any different. I don't feel any better about myself, and that's a huge part of it. I wouldn't say I hate myself - I'm not that melodramatic - but...well, I'm not even content, never mind happy.
Immediate family: N/A
I've opted out of this one; I don't have a partner, and I have no real interest in acquiring one at this time, so I wouldn't deem this a failure...I don't really want to establish the connection it would take for me to allow someone into my life in this capacity, and I'm asexual, so the attraction side of things doesn't factor into it for me.
Original family: C
I...think we're all doing alright? I patched things up with my grandparents last year and, asides from them, I only really come into contact with my immediate family; i.e. those who I live with. I get along alright with my father and little brother, and my mother...well, we go through "hit and miss" phases, which is why this isn't an A. We can be engaged in singing competitions one day, and then at each other's throats the next, because we really don't see eye-to-eye on a lot of things, and respect is constantly being re-evaluated between us. But my family life is fairly stable right now.
Friends: C
This is a tough one...I've never been very good at keeping friends. I have a tendency to isolate myself from others once I start to get closer to them - it's a self-protection strategy I've never really been able to shake; the harsh truth of it is that I'm just too afraid and mistrustful of others to let them get closer to me - so, whilst I'd hope I was a fairly good conversationlist when it comes to small talk and the like, the process of getting to know me tends to hit a brick wall at some unidentifiable point and never go any further than that. My friends IRL are scattered across the country and I don't like Facebook, so I don't really keep in contact with them, and I'm not a sociable person offline; drinking and partying and the rest just doesn't appeal to me. Online, I love to talk to people, just...not on a personal level. Without that personal level, is it friendship? I dunno, really. It's awkward. xD
Money: A
I'm good with my money; I always have been. I have plenty saved, and I have the self-control not to spend my money on things I don't really need most of the time. I don't have much coming in, but that's not what this is about to me. I know how to budget properly. This is one of the few areas I'd give myself an A in.
Career: C
At first glance, this makes noooo sense, but I'd grade this in relation to my career prospects and plans. I have two degrees. I'm going to get a good job when I'm allowed to work. I did NOT go through years of schooling just to fail this. Really, based on my degree results I should grade myself higher than this, but I'm not after a highly paid job; I'll settle for a comfortable job which, whilst it won't pay as much, I'll enjoy and feel comfortable in. I'm also writing news articles for a website, which is something I've always wanted to do...it's not a paid position, but it's still a career after a fashion. It counts. Kinda.
Creativity: B
I'd like to think I'm a pretty creative person...the problem is getting the ideas out there, because I have too many of them! I like to write, I sprite a bit, and really, when in my situation I HAVE to be creative in my outlook, because otherwise I'm going to feel absolutely awful most of the time. Putting a positive spin on a fatalistic outlook requires a LOT of creativity. xD
Discipline: A
We all have to do things we don't like, and no amount of whining will change that; just get on with it so you can move on to something you enjoy. I'd like to think I was a fairly disciplined person when I set my mind to it: if I tell myself I'm not going to do something, I won't do it. If I intend to do something, I do it. With some things it's a little harder to do it immediately, but I WILL do it. I spend a lot of time on certain things, but they don't rule my life, and I've proved that to myself - and others - more than once. Just because I don't deprive myself of something constantly doesn't mean I can't. People often seem to forget that. Yeah, I'm good with discipline.
Lifestyle: D
Am I having fun? Well, I try to. I try to take pleasure in the small things in life, and enjoy what I can when I can. But I have a tendency to punish myself, because nobody else does. All I hear is that I'm doing well, that I've improved, and so on, but the truth is that I'm accomplishing absolutely nothing with my life and, whilst I can attribute my current lifestyle to numerous factors - many of them beyond my control - I'm a little too old to be playing the blame game, and I'm taking responsibility for my current state as best I can...which isn't good enough. Nothing I do will ever be good enough for me, and I doubt I'll ever change that outlook because I am, inherently, a person who is never satisfied with themselves. Some might call it perfectionism, or unrealistically high expectations, but...eh, it's a character trait I've always had. I'm not happy with my life, and I'm doing something about it, but...it's not enough. Simple as that, really. Others might judge me differently, but there we are. My life, my grade.
Sorry if that sounded like a pity party or whatever, just trying to be as brutally honest with myself as possible...after all, it's meaningless otherwise, right?~
