Who Are You!

[Hoovie]

There is a "Type Indicator " called Myers-Briggs that provide anaysis to your personality and tells you which one of 16 categories you are, based on if you are Introverted or Extroverted, tend to use Sense or Intuition, Judge or Percieve and Think or Feel.

I have done this test a few times over the years and even though the questions vary, the results tend to be pretty much the same and are an accurate reflection of my personality.

There are no right or wrong answers and you can also see what kind of jobs your personality type tends to be in :)

Lots of tests out there, but this one is free and doesn't want any info from you (other then your answers to the questions, of course)

FWIW, I am an INTJ and the career paths for that pretty well sum up what I do 100%!

Introvert, iNtuitive, Feeler, Perceiver (INFP)

INFPs represent between 4 and 5% of the U.S. population

INFPs value inner harmony above all else. Sensitive, idealistic, and loyal, they have a strong sense of honor concerning their personal values and are often passionately committed to making sure their beliefs and actions are congruent. INFPs are also extremely perceptive about people. They value their uniqueness and typically seek unconventional ways of doing things. Sensitive and empathetic, INFPs tend to be exceptionally adept at reading between the lines. Although they demonstrate cool reserve on the outside, INFPs care deeply inside. They are compassionate, sympathetic, understanding and very sensitive to the feelings of others. They avoid conflict and are not interested in impressing or dominating others unless their values are at stake. INFPs seldom express the intensity of their feelings and often appear reticent and calm. However, once they know you, they are enthusiastic and warm. Feeling truly understood and respected for their unique perspective and strong values is important for many INFPs.

INFPs Tend To Be:

• Deeply committed to work and a vision they believe in

• Adaptable & patient

• Creative, resourceful & naturally curious

• Highly diplomatic consensus builders

• Perceptive about others’ needs & motivations

• Able to "think outside the box" & see possibilities

Career Satisfiers

All people are most satisfied and successful when using their natural talents in an environment that is consistent with their personality preferences and values. Research shows that INFPs are most satisfied by jobs that provide the following:

• Supportive, meaningful relationships with a small group of co-workers

• A role in helping others grow & develop their fullest potential

• A tension-free, collaborative work environment

• Work that is consistent with their strong, personal values

• A role that does not involve public speaking, or disciplining others

I agree with all that is printed below. :D even the not so good bits.

ISFJs are characterized above all by their desire to serve others, their "need to be needed." In extreme cases, this need is so strong that standard give-and-take relationships are deeply unsatisfying to them; however, most ISFJs find more than enough with which to occupy themselves within the framework of a normal life. (Since ISFJs, like all SJs, are very much bound by the prevailing social conventions, their form of "service" is likely to exclude any elements of moral or political controversy; they specialize in the local, the personal, and the practical.)

ISFJs are often unappreciated, at work, home, and play. Ironically, because they prove over and over that they can be relied on for their loyalty and unstinting, high-quality work, those around them often take them for granted--even take advantage of them. Admittedly, the problem is sometimes aggravated by the ISFJs themselves; for instance, they are notoriously bad at delegating ("If you want it done right, do it yourself"). And although they're hurt by being treated like doormats, they are often unwilling to toot their own horns about their accomplishments because they feel that although they deserve more credit than they're getting, it's somehow wrong to want any sort of reward for doing work (which is supposed to be a virtue in itself). (And as low-profile Is, their actions don't call attention to themselves as with charismatic Es.) Because of all of this, ISFJs are often overworked, and as a result may suffer from psychosomatic illnesses.

In the workplace, ISFJs are methodical and accurate workers, often with very good memories and unexpected analytic abilities; they are also good with people in small-group or one-on-one situations because of their patient and genuinely sympathetic approach to dealing with others. ISFJs make pleasant and reliable co-workers and exemplary employees, but tend to be harried and uncomfortable in supervisory roles. They are capable of forming strong loyalties, but these are personal rather than institutional loyalties; if someone they've bonded with in this way leaves the company, the ISFJ will leave with them, if given the option. Traditional careers for an ISFJ include: teaching, social work, most religious work, nursing, medicine (general practice only), clerical and and secretarial work of any kind, and some kinds of administrative careers.

While their work ethic is high on the ISFJ priority list, their families are the centers of their lives. ISFJs are extremely warm and demonstrative within the family circle--and often possessive of their loved ones, as well. When these include Es who want to socialize with the rest of the world, or self-contained ITs, the ISFJ must learn to adjust to these behaviors and not interpret them as rejection. Being SJs, they place a strong emphasis on conventional behavior (although, unlike STJs, they are usually as concerned with being "nice" as with strict propriety); if any of their nearest and dearest depart from the straight-and-narrow, it causes the ISFJ major embarrassment: the closer the relationship and the more public the act, the more intense the embarrassment (a fact which many of their teenage children take gleeful advantage of). Over time, however, ISFJs usually mellow, and learn to regard the culprits as harmless eccentrics :-). Needless to say, ISFJs take infinite trouble over meals, gifts, celebrations, etc., for their loved ones--although strong Js may tend to focus more on what the recipient should want rather than what they do want.

Like most Is, ISFJs have a few, close friends. They are extremely loyal to these, and are ready to provide emotional and practical support at a moment's notice. (However, like most Fs they hate confrontation; if you get into a fight, don't expect them to jump in after you. You can count on them, however, run and get the nearest authority figure.) Unlike with EPs, the older the friendship is, the more an ISFJ will value it. One ISFJ trait that is easily misunderstood by those who haven't known them long is that they are often unable to either hide or articulate any distress they may be feeling. For instance, an ISFJ child may be reproved for "sulking," the actual cause of which is a combination of physical illness plus misguided "good manners." An adult ISFJ may drive a (later ashamed) friend or SO into a fit of temper over the ISFJ's unexplained moodiness, only afterwards to explain about a death in the family they "didn't want to burden anyone with." Those close to ISFJs should learn to watch for the warning signs in these situations and take the initiative themselves to uncover the problem.

Introvert, iNtuitive, Thinker, Perceiver (INTP)

INTPs represent between 3 and 5% of the U.S. population

Intensely intellectual and logical, INTPs are conceptual problem solvers and often show flashes of creative brilliance. Outwardly quiet, reserved, and detached, INTPs are inwardly absorbed in analyzing problems. They are critical, precise, and skeptical and are driven to find and use logical principles to understand their many ideas. They like conversation to be high level and purposeful and may argue to the point of hairsplitting just for fun. INTPs are convinced almost exclusively by logical reasoning. They set high standards – for themselves and for others. INTP’s think in extremely complex ways and are generally better at organizing new concepts and ideas than at organizing other people. Highly independent, INTP’s tend to be more interested in finding creative solutions to problems than implementing them on the ground level.

INTPs Tend To Be:

• Naturally objective & logical decision-makers

• Confident & independent; driven by their passion & integrity

• Quick to understand complex, highly abstract concepts

• Creative problem solvers & long-range strategic analysts

• Intellectually curious; open to revisiting decisions & processes

• Innovative creators of visionary solutions & systems

Career Satisfiers

All people are most satisfied and successful when using their natural talents in an environment that is consistent with their personality preferences and values. Research shows that INTPs are most satisfied by jobs that provide the following:

• Opportunities to develop, analyze & critique new ideas

• Work that is intellectually stimulating & challenges their creative & logical analysis skills

• Autonomy & time every day to work independently

• A flexible, casual environment with minimal rules or unnecessary meetings

• Minimal time spent managing others or resolving disputes

Whether you're a young adult trying to find your place in the world, or a not-so-young adult trying to find out if you're moving along the right path, it's important to understand yourself and the personality traits which will impact your likeliness to succeed or fail at various careers. It's equally important to understand what is really important to you. When armed with an understanding of your strengths and weaknesses, and an awareness of what you truly value, you are in an excellent position to pick a career which you will find rewarding.

INTPs generally have the following traits:

* Love theory and abstract ideas

* Truth Seekers - they want to understand things by analyzing underlying principles and structures

* Value knowledge and competence above all else

* Have very high standards for performance, which they apply to themselves

* Independent and original, possibly eccentric

* Work best alone, and value autonomy

* Have no desire to lead or follow

* Dislike mundane detail

* Not particularly interested in the practical application of their work

* Creative and insightful

* Future-oriented

* Usually brilliant and ingenius

* Trust their own insights and opinions above others

* Live primarily inside their own minds, and may appear to be detached and uninvolved with other people

INTPs have a special gift with generating and analyzing theories and possibilities to prove or disprove them. They have a great deal of insight and are creative thinkers, which allows them to quickly grasp complex abstract thoughts. They also have exceptional logical and rational reasoning skills, which allows them to thoroughly analyze theories to discover the Truth about them. Since the INTP is driven to seek clarity in the world, we have a happy match of desire and ability in this personality type. INTPs will be happiest in careers which allow them a great deal of autonomy in which they can work primarily alone on developing and analyzing complex theories and abstractions, with the goal of their work being the discovery of a truth, rather than the discovery of a practical application.

There are no guarantees that any or all of the careers listed here would be appropriate for you, or that your best career match is among those listed.

ENTJs Tend To Be:

Natural leaders with a hearty and frank style, ENTJs tend to take charge of any situation they find themselves in. They are good organizers of people because they have the ability to see ahead and then communicate their vision to others. Usually friendly and outgoing, ENTJs have a lot of energy, often speaking, thinking and moving quickly. Excellent strategic thinkers, they grasp new concepts quickly, even complicated or complex issues and they generally convey confidence. ENTJs often juggle several projects at once, and pride themselves on completing them all with skill and efficiency. Creative and innovative, most ENTJs enjoy developing high-level strategy and leading a team or organization towards implementation. Because ENTJs are so logical and analytical, they are usually good at anything that requires reasoning and intelligence. Driven to achieve competence in all they do, they can naturally spot the flaws that may exist in a situation and see immediately how to improve them.

ENTJs Tend To Be:

• Logical, objective & analytical decision-makers

• Quick to grasp complex issues & see the "big picture"

• Strategic visionaries; long-range planners

• Determined, priority-driven & hard-working with high standards

• Confident, natural leaders

• Highly directive; quick to take ownership over their projects
