More on Personality Types


A good friend sent me this link the other day with her results.

The analysis was so accurate I decided to try it myself and posted the results to my Facebook Page:

You Are An ESTJ

estj More on Personality Types The Guardian

You’re a natural leader and a quick, logical decision maker.
Goals are important in your life, and you take many steps to achieve them.
You enjoy interacting with others, mostly through work related activities.
Your high energy level means that you are great at getting things done!

In love, you tend to bring stability to relationships.
You feel comfortable being in charge, and you enjoy being a provider.

At work, you take charge. You thrive in structured environments and don’t mind enforcing the rules.
You would make a great teacher, judge, or police detective.

How you see yourself: Realistic, stable, and pragmatic

When other people don’t get you, they see you as: Rigid, bound to rules, and a bad listener

Although this is a different style of personality profiling than what I teach in DancerWealth, it has similar roots in the early works of Carl Jung and his follower Isabel Myers-Briggs.  If you have time, take the test, you will find out much about yourself.

Why is it important to know this about yourself?  Well, I feel that personal development is an integral part of life.  Unfortunately, many people do not actively work on it.  If you are able to identify your strengths and weaknesses, then you can use that knowledge to make major life decisions better.  If you are married or in a committed relationship, knowing your partner’s strengths and weaknesses can help to temper minor disagreements so they do not escalate into screaming matches.

It can also assist you in finding the right type of work.  for example, as i read deeper into my own ESTJ personality type, I learned that my personality type favors structured environments: which is why I tend to thrive in upscale corporate style clubs that enforce a dress code and other various rules.  To free spirited entertainers who are not ESTJs that environment would completely squash their creativity!

Please, take the test and post your results either here or on Facebook.  You can use the Facebook Connect key to comment on the blog!

    I am your TOTAL OPPOSITE, an INFP. Although I’ve had different results and that’s a pretty truncated test. I think we should put this to the test in the club environment sometime and track the differences in our working styles. In the name of science, of course, and not because I think it would be really funny.
