What personality type are you?

I am the only person on the planet to be a complete balance of all personality types


LOL no you aren't! I took the expensive test;)
Try to convince others of that!! Bwahhhhhh;)



Actually the truth is that I came out as a balanced pilot (they have one of these specifically for pilots).

My personality type is pretty much center of the road on all accounts though...which makes me a non-personality, I think. :ph34r:

It told me this:

Quote


Artisans are the temperament with a natural ability to excel in any of the arts, not only the fine arts such as painting and sculpting, or the performing arts such as music, theater, and dance, but also the athletic, military, political, mechanical, and industrial arts, as well as the "art of the deal" in business.

Artisans are most at home in the real world of solid objects that can be made and manipulated, and of real-life events that can be experienced in the here and now. Artisans have exceptionally keen senses, and love working with their hands. They seem right at home with tools, instruments, and vehicles of all kinds, and their actions are usually aimed at getting them where they want to go, and as quickly as possible. Thus Artisans will strike off boldly down roads that others might consider risky or impossible, doing whatever it takes, rules or no rules, to accomplish their goals. This devil-may-care attitude also gives the Artisans a winning way with people, and they are often irresistibly charming with family, friends, and co-workers.

Artisans want to be where the action is; they seek out adventure and show a constant hunger for pleasure and stimulation. They believe that variety is the spice of life, and that doing things that aren't fun or exciting is a waste of time. Artisans are impulsive, adaptable, competitive, and believe the next throw of the dice will be the lucky one. They can also be generous to a fault, always ready to share with their friends from the bounty of life. Above all, Artisans need to be free to do what they wish, when they wish. They resist being tied or bound or confined or obligated; they would rather not wait, or save, or store, or live for tomorrow. In the Artisan view, today must be enjoyed, for tomorrow never comes.


Artisans make up between 15 to 20 percent of the population, which is good, because they create much of the beauty, grace, fun, and excitement the rest of us enjoy in life.



Scary enough it fits....

I had Artisian, but those types of test are crap.
they dont allow for non conformity, I have trouble choosing with only 2 options and neither one fits at all

I 100% concur, but mine fit me.. :S

but then it also said i was INFJ. don't know if i can agree with the introversion part of it, and i'm sure those that know me can. Although, I can be shy in certain scenerios...

The expensive test is much more detailed. Large corporations pay alot of money for their people to take these tests during "team building" exercises.

From the INTJ profile description:

Quote


INTJs can rise to management positions when they are willing to invest time in marketing their abilities as well as enhancing them, and (whether for the sake of ambition or the desire for privacy) many also find it useful to learn to simulate some degree of surface conformism in order to mask their inherent unconventionality.

I'm an INxP

I'm very balanced between the T and F.

To me it's an interesting way of lookng at things; limited in some ways, but it gives you an insight. Kind of how an x ray or MRI is a diagnostic tool that helps you to see stuff that just looking at the outside won't, but that is by no means a one-size-fits-all tool that can be used in isolation.

The I/E to me is best described or intuited by figuring out if your energy is drained or recharged by being with people and in social situations. It is one of the ones that often changes with maturity. Whether you're able to deal with people or comfortable with them isn't as much a factor.

The actual test paid for by corporations is much more extensive (and expensive)



For my company it was $35 / person and it was equally fictional as the free version.

It's hard for me to believe anyone would ever buy into a system that says people can't be both vain (introverted) and socialites (extroverted). Maybe if they'd never been to Los Angeles.

Profile: ENTP
Revision: 3.0
Date of Revision: 26 Feb 2005

"Clever" is the word that perhaps describes ENTPs best. The professor who juggles half a dozen ideas for research papers and grant proposals in his mind while giving a highly entertaining lecture on an abstruse subject is a classic example of the type. So is the stand-up comedian whose lampoons are not only funny, but incisively accurate.

ENTPs are usually verbally as well as cerebrally quick, and generally love to argue--both for its own sake, and to show off their often-impressive skills. They tend to have a perverse sense of humor as well, and enjoy playing devil's advocate. They sometimes confuse, even inadvertently hurt, those who don't understand or accept the concept of argument as a sport.

ENTPs are as innovative and ingenious at problem-solving as they are at verbal gymnastics; on occasion, however, they manage to outsmart themselves. This can take the form of getting found out at "sharp practice"--ENTPs have been known to cut corners without regard to the rules if it's expedient -- or simply in the collapse of an over-ambitious juggling act. Both at work and at home, ENTPs are very fond of "toys"--physical or intellectual, the more sophisticated the better. They tend to tire of these quickly, however, and move on to new ones.

ENTPs are basically optimists, but in spite of this (perhaps because of it?), they tend to become extremely petulant about small setbacks and inconveniences. (Major setbacks they tend to regard as challenges, and tackle with determin- ation.) ENTPs have little patience with those they consider wrongheaded or unintelligent, and show little restraint in demonstrating this. However, they do tend to be extremely genial, if not charming, when not being harassed by life in general.

In terms of their relationships with others, ENTPs are capable of bonding very closely and, initially, suddenly, with their loved ones. Some appear to be deceptively offhand with their nearest and dearest; others are so demonstrative that they succeed in shocking co-workers who've only seen their professional side. ENTPs are also good at acquiring friends who are as clever and entertaining as they are. Aside from those two areas, ENTPs tend to be oblivious of the rest of humanity, except as an audience -- good, bad, or potential.



It's surprisingly accurate. I bolded the stuff that really resonated with me.

I didn't read it (look something shiny) but is there anything in bold that was not positive:)

I look at these in the same light as Horoscopes:ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

There's a dark side of each of these that comes out under pressure; that's not so positive.

But, ya know -- it's a tool. If it doesn't fit your style, then don't use it. Me, I hate slothead screws, and try to avoid them whenever I can.:ph34r:

Sure, there was plenty. I recognize my less-than-charming side, too.
