So I have been reading alot of the threads on self esteem and what everyone thinks that they need to improve on and how they can go about doing it. I'm a HUGE advocate of self growth and for that reason, I would like to introduce this link to some of you: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp Probably half of you may already be aware of this, its a very well known test. This is a psychology/personality test developed by the famous psycologist Carl Jung and then adapted by pyschologists Isabel Meyer Briggs. Everyone who takes it finds that it is almost eerily accurate. It subcategorizes you into specific types, like, for example I am an INFP. Each of those letters stands for something, and rather than try to explain it to you, I have posted the following information below: The theory is that every individual has a primary mode of operation within four categories: 1)our flow of energy 2)how we take in information 3)how we prefer to make decisions 4)the basic day-to-day lifestyle that we prefer Within each of these categories, we "prefer" to be either: Extraverted or Introverted (relates to #1 above) Sensing or iNtuitive (relates to #2) Thinking or Feeling (relates to #3) Judging or Perceiving (relates to #4) Our Flow of Energy defines how we receive the essential part of our stimulation. Do we receive it from within ourselves (Introverted) or from external sources (Extraverted)? Is our dominant function focused externally or internally. The topic of how we Take in Information deals with our preferred method of taking in and absorbing information. Do we trust our five senses (Sensing) to take in information, or do we rely on our instincts (iNtuitive). The third type of preference, how we prefer to Make Decisions, refers to whether we are prone to decide things based on logic and objective consideration (Thinking), or based on our personal, subjective value systems (Feeling). Are we organized and purposeful, and more comfortable with scheduled, structured environments (Judging), or are we flexible and diverse, and more comfortable with open, casual environments (Perceiving)? Take 5-10 minutes to answer the questions at this link: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp When you've received your personality type, INTJ, ESFP, whatever it is, go to this page for information about yourself: http://www.personalitypage.com/high-level.html Also, if you are interested, at the bottom of each page, there is a section titled "personal growth" that allows you to effectively target your strengths and weaknesses, how to improve upon them, and also, insight into your love life, career, and other relationships. Its extremely helpful, I swear!!
