myers-briggs

i'm a sucker for personality tests, and the myers-briggs is the mother of all personality tests. i've taken it numerous times online, and even attended a detailed workshop on it as a communication training for work. here is a quick run down what the letters stand for:

introversion vs. extroversion (where you get your energy)
sensing vs. intuition (literal, concrete vs. abstract)
thinking vs. feeling (logic, rational vs. values, feelings)
judging vs. perceiving (neat, orderly, established vs. flexible, spontaneous)


humanmetrics has a great online myers-briggs test you can take for free. the personality page is another great source for more in-depth personality profile descriptions. without fail, i am always an isfj. aaron took it once and he was an entp, which you will notice is the complete opposite of me. huh. weird. what are you?

isjf
the nurturer


you have a strong need to belong, and you very loyal. a good listener, you excel at helping others in practical ways. in your spare time, you enjoy engaging your senses through art, cooking, and music. you find it easy to be devoted to one person... a partner who you do special things for.

in love, you express your emotions through actions. taking care of someone is how you love them. and you do it well!

at work, you do well in a structured environment. you complete tasks well and on time. you would make a good interior designer, chef, or child psychologist.

how you see yourself: competent, dependable, and detail oriented

when other people don't get you, they see you as: boring, dominant, and stuck in a rut
