What personality type are you?

Recommended Posts

Here's a simple personality test known as Meyers-Briggs.

Fill out the form, then take the test.

The actual test paid for by corporations is much more extensive (and expensive). What type are you?

I'm an INTJ.

You mean Myers-Briggs?:D

I'm an ENTP. I've taken the full test and that's how it always comes out. I'm a recovering ENTJ, though...

The expensive test I took also measured your "stress" type. I was ISTJ. I'm gravitating more and more towards that as I age/mature. Makes me think maturation is the number of times you've been whacked by a bat in life... ;)

I have never been fully evaluated, but have been told by people who use the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator that I am an ESTP



I am full on INTJ.

If I'm dealing with people with project deadlines coming into play, I gravitate more towards ISTJ but with full blown latent INTJ tendancies barely concealed in the background.

About 1 in 4 people in life don't like me. I've never been able to figure out why... ;):D:D I always thought it was just a gift from God(...and who am I not to use a gift from God??? :D:D:D)

I am aware of the indicators and of the 4 characters.



Some how, you never struck me as a shy person ;):P



But people who test as "I" aren't necessarily shy. I used to work with a guy who was an I and you'd never guess it at the office. But I traveled with him once and you could see it at the end of the day when we got to the hotel - he needed so badly to be alonge and be able to turn "off."

I test strong "E" but I do have that tendency from time-to-time. Most of the time people energize me (typical E) but occasionally they drain me (typical I).

I had two ex girlfriends that were INTJ. I should have learned after the first one.[:/] INTJs are the project managers of the world. Only about 2-4% of people are this type. I'm the spontaneous type that loves to talk/argue and never quite finishes anything because something else is so much more interesting. They needed their "quiet time" and loved everything planned out to the last minute. They made lists to keep track of their lists. I'm surprised we lasted as long as we did.
50 donations so far. Give it a try.

When I socialize and let my hair down, it's with people I've known a long time. I will socialize with others, but it has to be early in the night. Doesn't take much of that to flat out wear me out. I'm ready to go home. My wife, on the other hand, is the complete opposite. It energizes her, and she'll be the last one to leave.

I think that's ISTJs, actually. But, INTJs can move that way easily (myself included).

Yes. I need my time for me, and only me. I'm lucky my wife understands that. Sometimes that time is jumping, or going to the pub, or sitting in my office listening to Social Distortion.

I'm not to the last minute, but I like to have an outline there.

I got over that. Now, I just keep stacks of lists ;) Important one's on top.

I just don't think it is necessary to categorize myself



Myers-Briggs are the first to say that these categorizations can change over time, and other conditions (e.g., stress).

These "categories" are very effective for determining communcation styles, thereby promoting effective communication.

So wanna tell me something that I don't already know at some level?:)
I do not feel the need to place myself into a mold. As I mature, I change and I grow. I have taken the test upon more than one occassion. It was useful at the time.
I am happy with all the facets of my personalty. I do not need another test to tell me who I am. It really is as simple as that.B|
