Personality Type
8:53 AM Edit This 2 Comments »
Ive been thinking and talking about personality types this week.
I took the myers-briggs test a few times online to make sure I got the same results.
Im an ENFP
Extroverted
iNtuitive
Feeling
Perceiving
You can read about that profile here and here
On another scale the Kiersley Temprement Sorter, that makes me a Champion Idealist
Here are a few statements that really resonated with me
ENFPs have what some call a "silly switch." They can be intellectual, serious, all business for a while, but whenever they get the chance, they flip that switch and become CAPTAIN WILDCHILD, Sometimes they may even appear intoxicated when the "switch" is flipped.
Friends are what life is about
ENFPs are energized by being around people. Some have real difficulty being alone , especially on a regular basis
is responsible for the silent pull of ENFPs to the wishes of parents, authority figures and friends
ENFPs are strongly influenced by the opinions of their friends
They can't bear to miss out on what is going on around them; they must experience, first hand, all the significant social events that affect our lives.
Champions consider intense emotional experiences as being vital to a full life, although they can never quite shake the feeling that a part of themselves is split off, uninvolved in the experience. Thus, while they strive for emotional congruency, they often see themselves in some danger of losing touch with their real feelings
ENFPs have a tendency to overextend themselves in both their physical and emotional commitments. Their proclivity to procrastinate and to overlook details complicates their circumstances. ENFPs often move on to new ventures without completing those they have already started.
The status quo tends to lack inspiration
attracted to strange things
non punctual
For an ENFP, work must be fun and must contribute to something larger than merely collecting a paycheck
ENFPs are less productive where there is disharmony because they pay more attention to the relationships between people at work than they do to the tasks.
They may overlook obvious details and facts about their partners that might cause other types to be more cautious. As relationships progress, ENFPs romanticise their partners and make strong efforts to rationalize any discrepancy between the reality and their "ideal."
Hold onto bad relationships long after they've turned bad
Extreme dislike of conflict
Don't pay attention to their own needs
Have difficulty scolding or punishing others
Because ENFPs thrive on new possibilities, when they fall out of love, they rebound quickly
For ENFPs, loving is an almost constant state
When he or she is in charge of economic resources, the ENFP's home may contain extravagant luxuries while necessities may be missing.
May "burn out" or develop physical problems because of trying to do it all
