| Personality Profile Hi all, Have any of you ever tested yourself to find out what your thinking style is, how others perceive you, your strengths and weaknesses, etc.? If you're interested, you can complete a questionnaire which gives you info on the above. This questionnaire (complete with its own strengths and weaknesses) was developed by a psychologist and I find it very interesting. I always type as an INTP "The Scientist". Try it for fun! Free personality test | 16Personalities I suggest doing it more than once just to check for consistency. ...and let us know the results! Do you agree, disagree, etc! Have you done it before? Do the results change or stay the same? |

Yes, the Meyers Briggs! Both of my parents are INFJ's I am very close to them! The reason I brought it up is because there was another site which said what type of dog best fit your Meyers Briggs assessment. According to that site, I am not the type for a Yorkshire Terrier! I can't remember what types it said were best for me and I can't find it, now. I thought that was even more interesting so I'm still searching for it to share. | |

| Very interesting. I did it twice, the first time I got INTP-Turbulant-Analyst, the second I got INFP-Turbulant-Diplomat. I think both are relatively correct.

| I just took it and I'm a ESFJ. Most of what they say is about right. ESFJ PERSONALITY Encourage, lift and strengthen one another. For the positive energy spread to one will be felt by us all. People who share the ESFJ personality type are, for lack of a better word, popular - which makes sense, given that it is also a very common personality type, making up twelve percent of the population. In high school, ESFJs are the cheerleaders and the quarterbacks, setting the tone, taking the spotlight and leading their teams forward to victory and fame. Later in life, ESFJs continue to enjoy supporting their friends and loved ones, organizing social gatherings and doing their best to make sure everyone is happy. At their hearts, ESFJ personalities are social creatures, and thrive on staying up to date with what their friends are doing. Discussing scientific theories or debating European politics isn't likely to capture ESFJs' interest for too long. ESFJs are more concerned with fashion and their appearance, their social status and the standings of other people. Practical matters and gossip are their bread and butter, but ESFJs do their best to use their powers for good. RESPECTING THE WISDOM OF LEADERSHIP ESFJs are altruists, and they take seriously their responsibility to help and to do the right thing. Unlike their Diplomat (NF) relatives however, people with the ESFJ personality type will base their moral compass on established traditions and laws, upholding authority and rules, rather than drawing their morality from philosophy or mysticism. It's important for ESFJs to remember though, that people come from many backgrounds and perspectives, and what may seem right to them isn't always an absolute truth. ESFJs love to be of service, enjoying any role that allows them to participate in a meaningful way, so long as they know that they are valued and appreciated. This is especially apparent at home, and ESFJs make loyal and devoted partners and parents. ESFJ personalities respect hierarchy, and do their best to position themselves with some authority, at home and at work, which allows them to keep things clear, stable and organized for everyone. PLAY DATES AREN'T JUST FOR THE KIDS! Supportive and outgoing, ESFJs can always be spotted at a party - they're the ones finding time to chat and laugh with everyone! But their devotion goes further than just breezing through because they have to. ESFJs truly enjoy hearing about their friends' relationships and activities, remembering little details and always standing ready to talk things out with warmth and sensitivity. If things aren't going right, or there's tension in the room, ESFJs pick up on it and to try to restore harmony and stability to the group. Being pretty conflict-averse, ESFJs spend a lot of their energy establishing social order, and prefer plans and organized events to open-ended activities or spontaneous get-togethers. People with this personality type put a lot of effort into the activities they've arranged, and it's easy for ESFJs' feelings to be hurt if their ideas are rejected, or if people just aren't interested. Again, it's important for ESFJs to remember that everyone is coming from a different place, and that disinterest isn't a comment about them or the activity they've organized - it's just not their thing. Coming to terms with their sensitivity is ESFJs' biggest challenge - people are going to disagree and they're going to criticize, and while it hurts, it's just a part of life. The best thing for ESFJs to do is to do what they do best: be a role model, take care of what they have the power to take care of, and enjoy that so many people do appreciate the efforts they make. Famous ESFJs: Bill Clinton William McKinley Jennifer Garner Tyra Banks Danny Glover Nancy Kerrigan Sally Field“Dean Winchester” from Supernatural “Monica” from Friends

| I took the Meyer Briggs a while back and got an ISFP. I found this description to be close to spot-on: Quote:

How interesting! INTP's are extremely rare and even moreso for women. Apparently, as a woman, I am underdeveloped in "feeling" as I give priority to logic. INTP and INFP results are common and I think I read somewhere that if you flip between the two, you are normally INFP in the main. Thanks for sharing that! I have never met another potential INTP! | |

| I'm an ENFJ. "ENFJs are natural-born leaders, full of passion and charisma. Forming around two percent of the population, they are oftentimes our politicians, our coaches and our teachers, reaching out and inspiring others to achieve and to do good in the world. With a natural confidence that begets influence, ENFJs take a great deal of pride and joy in guiding others to work together to improve themselves and their community." Fit's me quite a bit. I actually keep my profile with me on my phone. Reminder of how awesome I am.
