February 3, 2012 Due February 9, 2012
Check to make sure you posted the February 2 blog also because this one is being posted before the Feb 2 due date!
We talked about personality types in ToK class. According to some psychologists, all humans fall within 1 of 16 distinct personality types, which can be measured by a test called the Myers-Briggs personality test. This is a fun and easy blog and you might learn something about yourself and each other. I have done this test numerous times since I first heard Dr. Myers speak years ago and have always scored the same – INFJ (and it recommends teacher as one of my careers – go figure). So, your instructions are – take the quick quiz on the first link then go to the second link to read about your personality type. Post your “4 Letters” here, then give a brief opinion on whether you agree or disagree with the assessment of your personality. Also post a career that it mentions you are suited for and mention if you might consider doing it.
The quiz: (note – there are lots of them online – google Myers-Briggs test if you want to do more! The original paper test has a lot more than 72 questions)

The descriptions: (click on the type you scored – at the bottom of the description are icons with info on careers, relationships, and personal growth)

INTJ
To outsiders, INTJs appear to project an aura of “definiteness”, of self-confidence. This self-confidence, sometimes mistaken for simple arrogance by the less decisive, is actually of a very specific rather than a general nature; its source lies in the specialized knowledge systems that most INTJs start building at an early age. When it comes to their own areas of expertise — and INTJs can have several — they will be able to tell you almost immediately whether or not they can help you, and if so, how. INTJs know what they know, and perhaps still more importantly, they know what they don’t know.
INTJs can be unsparing of both themselves and the others on the project. Anyone considered to be “slacking,” including superiors, will lose their respect — and will generally be made aware of this

ENFJ
“The benevolent pedagogues of humanity.”ENFJ means you are very sociable and caring with people.Your able to sympathize with others feelings and you like to be hands on with things.They see themselves as helpers and enablers.I agree with this being my personality because i love to be sociable with people and if i ever see a problem that needs fixing or something i can help someone with, i jump at the opportunity to do so.I love how it says that many people are drawn in by ENFJ’s grand schemes and how they are able to manipulate others…it reminds me of myself so much.One of the careers of an ENFJ is a psychologist which is exactly what I want to be.So it works out perfectly.

I got INFJ as my result…I agree with most of the things that it says …I am very artistic, very caring, and sensitive..but I think I am very social too. I am very meticulous and I pay attention to the details of things. I also let stress affect my health a lot. I do tend to be seen as stubborn its mostly about faith because I respect people’s opinions but most likely they won’t change the way I see things. I agree that I don’t like to follow people. I like most of the careers listed. I’ve always considered to be a psychologist, I do love photography, I’ve also considered being a chiropractor, and my peers compliment my art so I wouldn’t mind being any of the careers listed. accordingly to the site it says that INFJ’s have high values and strive for the best and i do think i have strong values

” ENFJs are people-focused individuals. They live in the world of people possibilities. More so than any other type, they have excellent people skills. They understand and care about people, and have a special talent for bringing out the best in others. ENFJ’s main interest in life is giving love, support, and a good time to other people. They are focused on understanding, supporting, and encouraging others. They make things happen for people, and get their best personal satisfaction from this. ” I agree with everything that it said about me except that it said basically that I cant do without having someone around me, I can just not for long. I really do care about other peoples feelings etc. It had my dream job for me which is to become a psychologist

“ENFJ’s main interest in life is giving love, support, and a good time to other people. They are focused on understanding, supporting, and encouraging others.”
http://WWW.PERSONALITYPAGE.COM/HTML/HIGH-LEVEL.HTML
I agree 100% with my results. I am a very loving and giving person. Often in situations that involve others needs, I want to help. I love volunteer work, anything where I’m needed, I like to be. I love being involved in big groups where socializing is the main interest. Even though I like big groups and having fun, I also like to take my personal time to think about things. I base a lot of my opinions and feelings off of things that have happened in my past. That’s a big part of why I over-analyze things in life. One of the main jobs for ENFJ’s is counseling. I’ve never really thought about being a counselor before, but I think that might be a very career choice to start thinking about. I want to do things with my life to help people. That’s one thing that I strive for. I think everyone’s life should be as amazing as they want it to be, and I think I can help people with that! I don’t believe in putting other people down. I think everyone deserves chances in life. I encourage people to help other people, because I just love the feeling of giving. (:

“As an INFJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily via intuition. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit with your personal value system.
INFJs are gentle, caring, complex and highly intuitive individuals. Artistic and creative, they live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities. Only one percent of the population has an INFJ Personality Type, making it the most rare of all the types.”
I agree with my outcome. One thing that describes me is “most INFJs are protective of their inner selves, sharing only what they choose to share when they choose to share.” That sounds exactly like me. Careers listed include counselors, psychiatrists, and teachers. Those are the types of careers that I would love to do. I have always wanted to be a teacher, and lately I have wanted to look into counseling. I think this describes my personality perfectly.

I got ESFJ this personality describes me completely. I have younger siblings which i think made me kind of the care-taker and a provider. The things that describe this personality say that they are the nuturers and are sympathetic people. I think i am exactly that. And i hate to be by myself. A job on that list that i would consider pursuing is healthcare administration but my first choice that wasnt on the list was psychology. A career that surprised me was education. I dont think i could ever see myself working in education because i cant deal with some of the things that teachers deal with. But other than that it described me perfectly.

ENTJs are especially well-suited to be leaders and organization builders. They have the ability to clearly identify problems and innovative solutions for the short and long-term well-being of an organization. Having a strong desire to lead, they’re not likely to be happy as followers. ENTJs like to be in charge, and need to be in charge to take advantage of their special capabilities.
Possible Career Paths for the ENTJ:
Corporate Executive Officer; Organization Builder
Entrepreneur
Computer Consultant
Lawyer
Judge
Business Administrators and Managers
University Professors and Administrators
I agree and I want to be a lawyer but any of these would be nice.

According to the article, http://www.personalitypage.com/html/high-level.html I have an INFJ personality type. I agree with it because it listed being a doctor is the careet that I would do well in and this is my passion. I believe that the quiz results were accurate because when I read into how INFJ’s interact with their friends and their relationships I could relate to its content.
In the workplace, the INFJ usually shows up in areas where they can be creative and somewhat independent. They have a natural affinity for art, and many excel in the sciences, where they make use of their intuition. INFJs can also be found in service-oriented professions. They are not good at dealing with minutia or very detailed tasks. The INFJ will either avoid such things, or else go to the other extreme and become enveloped in the details to the extent that they can no longer see the big picture. An INFJ who has gone the route of becoming meticulous about details may be highly critical of other individuals who are not.
• Clergy / Religious Work
• Teachers
• Medical Doctors / Dentists
• Alternative Health Care Practitioners, i.e. Chiropractor, Reflexologist
• Psychologists
• Psychiatrists
• Counselors and Social Workers
• Musicians and Artists
• Photographers
• Child Care / Early Childhood Development
Because the INFJ has such strong intuitive capabilities, they trust their own instincts above all else. This may result in an INFJ stubborness and tendency to ignore other people’s opinions. They believe that they’re right. On the other hand, INFJ is a perfectionist who doubts that they are living up to their full potential. INFJs are rarely at complete peace with themselves – there’s always something else they should be doing to improve themselves and the world around them. They believe in constant growth, and don’t often take time to revel in their accomplishments. They have strong value systems, and need to live their lives in accordance with what they feel is right. In deference to the Feeling aspect of their personalities, INFJs are in some ways gentle and easy going. Conversely, they have very high expectations of themselves, and frequently of their families. They don’t believe in compromising their ideals.

ISTJ
This is my second time taking the Myers-Briggs personality test, and it turned out the same as the last time. This confirms my own feelings about my personality, and has given me a good idea of what I need to work on. ISTJ’s are extremely thorough in their work, very dependable, and responsible. They also can accomplish almost any task if they set their mind to it. This describes me pretty well, and I am happy with my results.
Technical jobs were on the top of the list for ISTJ’s, and engineering was one of the suggested fields. I have always wanted to be a Civil Engineer, so this test made me even more confident in my plans for my future.

ISFJ personality is what I got, which is Introvert, Sensing, Feeling, and Judging. I agree on this 100%. I am Introvert at times. I do have a good sense, because I can sense when something bad or good will happen. I make decisions by my feelings, and not my brain. And I am very judging. I tend to judge people too much though. One of my career options Customer Service Specialist, or a Secretary. I don’t really think these careers fit me, but it would be an easy job, and I do think I would be able to do them very well, especially a secretary. The career I want to do is something involving music, because I do plan on majoring in music.

ESFJ
“Warm-hearted, popular, and conscientious. Tend to put the needs of others over their own needs. Feel strong sense of responsibility and duty. Value traditions and security. Interested in serving others. Need positive reinforcement to feel good about themselves. Well-developed sense of space and function.” (http://www.personalitypage.com/html/high-level.html). I agree with this because I do tend to put others needs over my own. I am not selfish or conceited.
“As an ESFJ, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit in with your personal value system. Your secondary mode is internal, where you take things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion.” (http://www.personalitypage.com/html/ESFJ.html). I agree with this because I have a tendency to take a lot of things literally.
“ESFJs are warm and energetic. They need approval from others to feel good about themselves. They are hurt by indifference and don’t understand unkindness. They are very giving people, who get a lot of their personal satisfaction from the happiness of others. They want to be appreciated for who they are, and what they give. They’re very sensitive to others, and freely give practical care. ESFJs are such caring individuals, that they sometimes have a hard time seeing or accepting a difficult truth about someone they care about.” (http://www.personalitypage.com/html/ESFJ.html). I do agree with parts of this, but I don’t need approval of others to feel good about myself and I do understand unkindness.
“ESFJs incorporate many of the traits that are associated with women in our society. However, male ESFJs will usually not appear feminine at all. On the contrary, ESFJs are typically quite conscious about gender roles and will be most comfortable playing a role that suits their gender in our society. Male ESFJs will be quite masculine (albeit sensitive when you get to know them), and female ESFJs will be very feminine.” (http://www.personalitypage.com/html/ESFJ.html). I agree with this because I don’t consider myself feminine, I consider myself masculine, but not like the kind of masculine where your buff and things like that.

So i got INFP it pretty much means that i am awesome. So my character traits pretty much go in line who i am as a person. I do agree with what the test results came out to be. One possible career that it gave me was psychology and education. I thought it was funny because those are both possible careers that I did tend to pursue in my future. But all in all i do agree with the test.

Well according to the test I’m infj which is “Quietly forceful, original, and sensitive. Tend to stick to things until they are done. Extremely intuitive about people, and concerned for their feelings. Well-developed value systems which they strictly adhere to. Well-respected for their perserverence in doing the right thing. Likely to be individualistic, rather than leading or following.” http://www.personalitypage.com/html/high-level.html. I agree with this because I do believe I’m more to be more individualistic than interacting with a lot of people. The career I would consider that I would most likely do is physiologist because I like listening to people’s problems and trying to help them.

This describes me perfectly because i care and help other people before i do myself. I dont expect anything in return because thats just how i am. I am a very loud and outgoing person. I am very popular and i love people. I get along with anyone i pretty much meet. The name for this personality is Caregiver which is what describes me best because i put my closest friends and family member before i put myself first.

I have been characterized as an: ENFJ. This means that I am Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling and Judging. Some of my traits include: Genuinely and warmly interested in people, Value people’s feelings Value structure and organization Value harmony and good at creating it, Exceptionally good people skills, Dislike impersonal logic and analysis, Strong organizational capabilities, Loyal and honest Creative and imaginative Enjoy variety and new challenges Get personal satisfaction from helping others, Extremely sensitive to criticism and discord, Need approval from others to feel good about themselves. Therefore, I must say that I do agree with my results. After I read them, it was kind of like looking in a mirror through a blind man’s sunglasses. Most of the careers that it slated for me are in line with what I have slated for myself. are. The best thing about the whole experience is what I found on the second website: “People love ENFJs. They are fun to be with, and truly understand and love people. They are typically very straight-forward and honest. Usually ENFJs exude a lot of self-confidence, and have a great amount of ability to do many different things. They are generally bright, full of potential, energetic and fast-paced. They are usually good at anything which captures their interest. ENFJs like for things to be well-organized, and will work hard at maintaining structure and resolving ambiguity. …ENFJs have a special gift with people, and are basically happy people when they can use that gift to help others. They get their best satisfaction from serving others. Their genuine interest in Humankind and their exceptional intuitive awareness of people makes them able to draw out even the most reserved individuals. ENFJs have a strong need for close, intimate relationships, and will put forth a lot of effort in creating and maintaining these relationships. They’re very loyal and trustworthy once involved in a relationship.” (http://www.personalitypage.com/html/ENFJ.html) Kudos, to Mr.Noblitt for giving us this opportunity to reevaluate ourselves.

The summed up sentence at the bottom of the page says “ESTPs are practical, observant, fun-loving, spontaneous risk-takers with an excellent ability to quickly improvise an innovative solution to a problem. They’re enthusiastic and fun to be with, and are great motivators. If an ESTP recognizes their real talents and operates within those realms, they can accomplish truly exciting things.” i agree that this is who i am. while reading the entire article i could do nothing but agree with everything that was said…except for my career. it says that i would make a good salesperson or entrepreneur. Well i hate selling stuff and i dont want my own business. i want to become a student of the medical field. whether it be in the sports medicine category or becoming a nurse. whatever gets me money.

My personality type was ISFJ. I think it fits for the most part because I do try to see the best in people and I’m pretty trusting, but once people prove me wrong several times then I tend to not trust them much anymore. Another thing addressed in the personality profile was that ISFJ’s don’t express their feelings a whole lot. This is very true for me, mostly because I don’t find it necessary for people to know every little thing about me. I have a strong sense of my own feelings; I just don’t talk about them. One characteristic it talked about was sensing how others feel. This is also true, but one way I differ from the personality description is that I’m not that nurturing. I am sympathetic to how others are feeling, but I’m not going to “freely dispense my warmth on others.” That’s a little too much. Other ways I fit the profile: I’m observant, dependable, down-to-earth, dislike doing things that don’t make sense, I learn best with hands-on activities, and hate confrontation. Some ways I don’t fit the profile are that: I’m not nurturing or service-oriented, I don’t value tradition that much, and I am terrible with aesthetics. But for the most part, it fits. I’m not too keen on the professions given; it’s unlikely that I’ll do something with design or social work, but I might end up in administrating or managing of some sort.

I agree with a large majority of what the evaluation said about my personality. It said my personality type is being a people person, who deals with situations with my emotions first, then with my senses secondarily. It said I would use my sensing ang judging characteristics in order to get a general idea of a person and then turn those judgements into supportive judgements. According to the evaluation, I am warm, energetic, giving, controlling, and have strong morals and values. I like to take responsibilties and take them with seriousness. I value stability and security along with organization. I have a selfless quality that is genuine and pure. BUT, on the other hand the description of my personality said I need approval from others to feel good about myself…..negative.
The careers the evaluation gave me that I am already interested in are Physician, Nursing, and Health Care Administration (OB/GYN). Education also came up and this was surprising because I do not have the patience for it at all.

Oh I thought it was cool that i got the rarest of all the types. But i would like to take a longer more advanced test in order to prove this. I Do agree with the description, well at least most of it that is. The job or jobs that i would consider are Social worker, and education or early child hood educator.

*ISFJ*
Quiet, kind, and conscientious. Can be depended on to follow through. Usually puts the needs of others above their own needs. Stable and practical, they value security and traditions. Well-developed sense of space and function. Rich inner world of observations about people. Extremely perceptive of other’s feelings. Interested in serving others.
*Known as the nurturer*
As an ISFJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you takes things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your personal value system.
ISFJs live in a world that is concrete and kind. They are truly warm and kind-hearted, and want to believe the best of people. They value harmony and cooperation, and are likely to be very sensitive to other people’s feelings. People value the ISFJ for their consideration and awareness, and their ability to bring out the best in others by their firm desire to believe the best.
ISFJs have a rich inner world that is not usually obvious to observers. They constantly take in information about people and situations that is personally important to them, and store it away. This tremendous store of information is usually startlingly accurate, because the ISFJ has an exceptional memory about things that are important to their value systems. It would not be uncommon for the ISFJ to remember a particular facial expression or conversation in precise detail years after the event occured, if the situation made an impression on the ISFJ.
ISFJs have a very clear idea of the way things should be, which they strive to attain. They value security and kindness, and respect traditions and laws. They tend to believe that existing systems are there because they work. Therefore, they’re not likely to buy into doing things in a new way, unless they’re shown in a concrete way why its better than the established method.
ISFJs learn best by doing, rather than by reading about something in a book, or applying theory. For this reason, they are not likely to be found in fields which require a lot of conceptual analysis or theory. They value practical application. Traditional methods of higher education, which require a lot of theorizing and abstraction, are likely to be a chore for the ISFJ. The ISFJ learns a task best by being shown its practical application. Once the task is learned, and its practical importance is understood, the ISFJ will faithfully and tirelessly carry through the task to completion. The ISFJ is extremely dependable.
The ISFJ has an extremely well-developed sense of space, function, and aesthetic appeal. For that reason, they’re likely to have beautifully furnished, functional homes. They make extremely good interior decorators. This special ability, combined with their sensitivity to other’s feelings and desires, makes them very likely to be great gift-givers – finding the right gift which will be truly appreciated by the recipient.
More so than other types, ISFJs are extremely aware of their own internal feelings, as well as other people’s feelings. They do not usually express their own feelings, keeping things inside. If they are negative feelings, they may build up inside the ISFJ until they turn into firm judgments against individuals which are difficult to unseed, once set. Many ISFJs learn to express themselves, and find outlets for their powerful emotions.
Just as the ISFJ is not likely to express their feelings, they are also not likely to let on that they know how others are feeling. However, they will speak up when they feel another individual really needs help, and in such cases they can truly help others become aware of their feelings.
The ISFJ feels a strong sense of responsibility and duty. They take their responsibilities very seriously, and can be counted on to follow through. For this reason, people naturally tend to rely on them. The ISFJ has a difficult time saying “no” when asked to do something, and may become over-burdened. In such cases, the ISFJ does not usually express their difficulties to others, because they intensely dislike conflict, and because they tend to place other people’s needs over their own. The ISFJ needs to learn to identify, value, and express their own needs, if they wish to avoid becoming over-worked and taken for granted.
ISFJs need positive feedback from others. In the absence of positive feedback, or in the face of criticism, the ISFJ gets discouraged, and may even become depressed. When down on themselves or under great stress, the ISFJ begins to imagine all of the things that might go critically wrong in their life. They have strong feelings of inadequacy, and become convinced that “everything is all wrong”, or “I can’t do anything right”.
The ISFJ is warm, generous, and dependable. They have many special gifts to offer, in their sensitivity to others, and their strong ability to keep things running smoothly. They need to remember to not be overly critical of themselves, and to give themselves some of the warmth and love which they freely dispense to others.

ESFP – People-oriented and fun-loving, they make things more fun for others by their enjoyment. Living for the moment, they love new experiences. They dislike theory and impersonal analysis. Interested in serving others. Likely to be the center of attention in social situations. Well-developed common sense and practical ability.
Possible Career Paths for the ESFP:
– Artists, Performers and Actors
– Sales Representatives
– Counselors / Social Work
– Child Care
– Fashion Designers
– Interior Decorators
– Consultants
– Photographers
I agree with this very much so, except for the ‘being the center of attention’ part. That isn’t me. But everything else is right about me. The careers are on point with my personality too. I’m already a very good artist & I love photography also. I’ve always thought about being a kindergarten teacher too … so child care 🙂

My type is INFP. That seems to describe me pretty well.The only real careers i could see myself doing is counseling or psycology. I’ve thought about being a psycologist before because i think about people as a whole not as just an idividuals, and i really like hearing people’s stories about their life.

ESTP
“ESTP
Friendly, adaptable, action-oriented. “Doers” who are focused on immediate results. Living in the here-and-now, they’re risk-takers who live fast-paced lifestyles. Impatient with long explanations. Extremely loyal to their peers, but not usually respectful of laws and rules if they get in the way of getting things done. Great people skills.” I somewhat agree with this because I normally don’t think too hard bout my next actions, I’m a loyal person, and I have great people skills. However i don’t agree with the disregard of rules or a fast-paced lifestyle.
Careers include.Stockbroker, management in business or education, Sales/marketing specialist, education, information system, seafaring, and Emergency medical services. The only career i’m interested in is the last one though.

The Giver
“ENFJ”; Popular and sensitive, with outstanding people skills. Externally focused, with real concern for how others think and feel. Usually dislike being alone. They see everything from the human angle, and dislike impersonal analysis. Very effective at managing people issues, and leading group discussions. Interested in serving others, and probably place the needs of others over their own needs.
For the most part I do agree with this personality test. But for the careers part, i dont know….(Facilitator, Consultant, Psychologist, Social Worker / Counselor, Teacher, Clergy, Sales Representative, Human Resources, Manager, Events Coordinator, Sales Representative, Politicians / Diplomats, Writers). They all kinda sound lame and boring but! it would be cool to be a politician or a diplomat, because then i could argue with people(; or a teacher because I do love little kids.

ENTJ
I AM THE EXECUTIVE
I believe that this test is pretty much accurate. I do find myself as being the executive type. I think more rationally and logically then acting on emotions. Often I find myself trying to plan out my entire life before I finish high school. Also the executive’s leadership ability. In the description it states that the executive often disregard other’s feelings, that is so totally me. I am pretty much a big Douchebag/A-hole so I think that is what will make me an awesome leader. I think for the group in its entirety instead of being concerned with one individual. I do belief that I posses some type of intelligence and I do enjoy challenges. However, I often find myself debating over stupid things to prove that I am the supreme know it all. I see the best thing is that it states that I am introverted when it comes to my feelings, which that is true. I see my careers are entrepreneur, computer consultant, and corporate leader. I would love to be all three of those careers intertwined somehow.

ESFP
I completely agree with with the assessment of my personality. And it exactly describes me. One of the careers that came came up was Artists, Performers and Actors; which is exactly what I am pursuing to be in the next few years. One thing said is, “They’re constantly putting on a show for others to entertain them and make them happy”, which is something that is always something i do. I like to cheer ppl up and entertain them.

INFJ “The Protector”
INFJs are gentle, caring, complex and highly intuitive individuals. Artistic and creative, they live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities. Only one percent of the population has an INFJ Personality Type, making it the most rare of all the types. They are usually right, and they usually know it.
I agree with my results. It said exactly how I am and everything.
Teachers
Psychologists
Musicians and Artists
Photographers
Child Care / Early Childhood Development
I agree with these too because i want to be a teacher and maybe a photographer. But i don’t agree with the psychologist.

ESTJ “The Guardian”
People who have gotten ESTJ in the survey are people who are usually loyal, natural leaders, hard-workers, honest, and wholesome. Those are some words to describe these type of leaders of the future. These people have a heart that would be able to reach out to other people when ever they in need of help. These people would never give up and would always stay in tasks, no matter if it’s to hard.
The possible career paths for these people are the followings:
Military leaders
Business Administrators and Managers
Police / Detective work
Judges
Financial Officers
Teachers
Sales Representatives
Even though I want to become an engineer, I would agree with those occupations.
Overall, to my point of view these characteristics does describe me. However, I believe that for the past weeks I fail to remember my characterstics, and fail to remember my motovations. However as the days are passing, I’m begining to see my errors from my past, and hey we all make mistakes. I know that I can learn from those mistakes, and make them into a positive outcome for the future.

ESFJs are generous entertainers.
They enjoy and joyfully observe traditions and are liberal in giving, especially where custom prescribes. All else being equal, ESFJs enjoy being in charge. They see problems clearly and delegate easily, work hard and play with zest. ESFJs, as do most SJs, bear strong allegiance to rights of seniority. They willingly provide service (which embodies life’s meaning) and expect the same from others.
Most of the descriptions describe me, such as being joyful, giving, hard working, trusted person, and it says that I like to take in charge (sometimes).
Possible jobs:
Fashion Merchandising, Nursing, Social Work, and Sales/Marketing Specialist.
