The Characteristics Of The Myers Briggs Personality Assessment

After taking the Myers Briggs Personality Assessment I was labeled an ENFP. An ENFP is extraverted, intuitive, feeling, and perceiving. These qualities make up a person with traits like energetic, outgoing, and good with people. ENFPs are in touch with themselves and have a strong sense of where they want to go in the future which also helps them get what they want. They can typically work logically and rationally, working backwards towards a set goal. ENFPs have both negative and positive traits that I know I possess and demonstrate fairly often. Being an ENFP means that I can connect with others and work with them easily. This personality type helps with the classroom/working environment and collaborating with classmates/ co-workers on

In any relationship, smothering is a flaw that no one likes, most especially in friendships and romantic relationships. ENFPs have to be careful about how much they care about the other person becoming overbearing. With family a personality is different because they are so used to how you act since they have been around you from the time you developed that personality.

I obtain most of the traits that a typical ENFP possesses and are aware of them on a daily basis. I am positively and negatively affected by my personality traits, but for the most part I am benefited by being an ENFP.

I was very surprised in my research of an ENFP personality type because I found myself realizing the traits that I do possess and how they play out in real world problems. I also discovered some traits that were less dominating in my personality but are still present in certain situation. I believe that the description of an ENFP personality fits me very well and I agree with the outcome of the Myers Briggs Personality
