My personality type is INTJ. INTJ stands for introversion, intuition, thinking and judging. INTJs are called “The Architect”, because of their analyzing and relentless nature (INTJ Personality, par. 2). I think it suits me well, because most of the strengths and weaknesses of this type are accurate. Architects have quick and rational minds, high self-confidence and are hard-working and determined. They are also open-minded and like new ideas and concepts. They tend to be independent. I think my most

After taking the Jung Typology Test, which is based on the MBTI, it was confirmed that my four dominate personality preferences are Introversion, iNtuition, Thinking and Judging.

Personality is essentially the culmination of the characteristics that make up an individual and that make the individual unique. Personality influences things such as a personas behavior and who that persona interacts with and how the interactions occur. After studying different personalities and reading the play 12 Angry Men I have a better understanding of myself and those around me. This brought me the realization that my close friends and I have very different personalities due to this we all
difficult questions I have ever had to answer. I repeated the personality test couple times. Most of my answers had to be 2 and ½ instead of a whole number, which I wasn’t capable of jotting down next to each question. Anyways, I pushed myself so hard to finish it, as this is something that I had to do to help explore and dig deeper in the hidden inner world of myself.

Whether I am interacting with members from my personal or professional life, my INTJ personality type dominates my perception for good or ill.

My self-confidence and perfectionist attitude can be attributed to my identified type. As Marina Heiss explains, a degree of mental independence from authority
My personality type is INTJ. The acronym stands for introverted intuitive thinking judging. Although I am an introvert, this does not mean that I do not like people. I do enjoy interacting with people on some occasions, but I enjoy it even more having time to myself. Like extraverts, Introverts have several unique traits. Introverts think things through. I have realized that my best thinking occurs when I am alone. Introverts are also great listeners. However, it takes us longer to assimilate information
Personality Testing Evaluation The world we live in is full of interesting and diverse people with lots of differing personalities. We are all different for good reasons and the differences shape who we are as individuals. Personality testing has always been particularly interesting to me, because I appreciate the explanation for the reasons we act the way we do. I found several interesting facts about myself through the personality testing offered in the Jung Typology Test. In this essay, I
People’s personalities play a role in every aspect of their lives. This is especially true when it comes to the workplace. There are 16 different personality types and each comes with their own nuances, quirks, and idiosyncrasies. Some individuals are always on time and stick to the facts while others prefer to daydream and keep a loose schedule. Understanding these different personalities and how they affect people’s views of the world, and the way they interact with others, is paramount to being
human being apart from physical appearance is their personality. Each person is unique in their own way, too such an extent that two similar people could have a reaction on complete different sides of the emotional spectrum. For example, take a look at Jamie and Kimberly, both girls are best friends and have the same interests, speak similarly, and have the same hobbies. At first glance they may seem like they would have the same personality, however when put in a moral- questioning situation

The Power of Personality in Toni Cade Bambara’s The Lesson Developing character is something that comes with time. I believe that there are three major things that effect how people develop their character—where they are from, which includes their financial status; how they are raised; and the character of the people that have had the most influence on their lives. Sylvia, in Toni Cade Bambara’s "The Lesson," is very much influenced by all of these factors. Sylvia’s living in the slums and
Birth order Have you ever wondered why you and your siblings never get along, or why you are so different? I wondered the same thing until I read an article about birth orders effects on personality. This had to be why she had never spent an hour away from my parents and I haven’t willingly been within thirty feet of them since I was six, Why I love to read well above my grade level and my sister, a sixth grader, reads mainly Captain Underpants books when not glued to the T.V. and why we are a similar
Birth order and the effect it has on your personality Some parents often wonder, what, if any, effect birth order will have on their children’s personalities. Genetic factors and other influences play a significant role, but the birth order within the family plays a larger role in determining the personality of children. Countless academic studies say your place in the family is such a strong factor in developing your personality that it can have a major influence on the rest of your life. Alfred
Repressed Personality and Sexual Subtleties in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde The Tragedies of repression In the reference book Victorian Britain: An Encyclopedia Stevenson is noted for saying that "fiction should render the truths that make life significant" (760). We see this most closely in his Jekyll/Hyde experiment when Jekyll explains why he invented his infamous potion.

The Personality of Macbeth Macbeth is first presented as a mature man of definitely established character, successful in certain fields of activity, and enjoying an enviable reputation. One must not conclude that all Macbeth's actions are predictable. Macbeth's character is made out of potentialities and the environment, and no one, not even Macbeth, can know all of his inordinate self-love. Macbeth is determined by a desire for temporal and mutable good. Macbeth is driven in his conduct
Pip's Personality Change in Great Expectations Most people would assume that through age and maturation, a boy with a wonderful heart and personality would further develop into a kind hearted, considerate gentleman. In Great Expectations, Charles Dickens provides his readers with an example of a boy who regresses in certain aspects of his personality rather than progressing as one would expect. Pip, a person who had loved and revered his uncle Joe as a child, while maturing, finds that
The Many Personalities of Lolita and Humbert in Nabokov’s Lolita Although they are intimately involved, the title character of Nabokov's Lolita never fully reveals her true self to Humbert. Likewise, Humbert pours his physical love into Lolita, but he never reveals to his stepdaughter a self that is separate from his obsession with her. These two characters mask large parts of their personalities from each other and the rest of the world, creating different images and personas in regard to different
