You Are An ESTJ

The Guardian

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

You would make a great teacher, judge, or police detective.

You Are An INFP 
The Idealist

You are creative with a great imagination, living in your own inner world.
Open minded and accepting, you strive for harmony in your important relationships.
It takes a long time for people to get to know you. You are hesitant to let people get close.
But once you care for someone, you do everything you can to help them grow and develop.

You would make an excellent writer, psychologist, or artist.


I first took the Myers-Briggs test in the 1980's with the same results.   The online version is really good but the material from Myers-Briggs has tons of material on your personality type.  It also helps you interact with others.  For every type there is an opposite.  For INFP it would be an ESTJ and that person could not understand my introversion any more than I could understand their extroversion.  I also amaze myself that I PEGGED Intuitive, the "N" part whose opposite is Sensate.   I can look at something a hundred times and not notice it is there until someone shows me it.

For anyone interested, I have a MS-DOS program called MYERS.EXE that asks very similar questions and generally gives the same results.  It also offers more details to someone with your individual ways of relating to those around you.  If anyone wants a copy I can email it to them.  Email [email protected]   (Note this program is totally keyboard operated.  You have to answer the questions with a number for your answer and then you have to hit the Enter or Return key for the program to proceed.)   FWIW I have been using, building and programming computers since June 1983.   Thanks to whoever found the link!
Lean on me, let our hearts beat in time,
Feel strength from the hands that have held you so long.
Who cares where we go on this rugged old road
In a world that may say that we're wrong.

...Cause I know - A love that will never grow old.

me and scott  the same also
Sometimes it all still feels like a mass of dots               
but
more and more these days
I feel like we're all connected
and it's beautiful   
and funny
and good.

Boy that was a long test. It felt like I was filling out a credit app.  :P

You are a natural performer and happiest when you're entertaining others.
A great friend, you are generous, fun-loving and optimistic.
You love to laugh - and you like almost all people equally.
You accept life as it is, and you do your best to make each day fantastic.

I didn't like this test - I kept wanting to qualify my answers with 'It depends...'

http://www.blogthings.com/whatsyourpersonalitytypequiz/

I have always been interested in art and painted recreationally since childhood (everything from portraits to abstracts, in oils on canvas) and I love music, so that part's right. But I'm not sure about the cooking / chef thing - "I can't cook worth a damn. Am pretty good with a can opener, though." What does "You Are An ISFJ" mean?

I have no idea what ISFJ means Kerry. It told me I'm a ESFJ (or something like that). I don't know what that means either.  ???

Maybe the first letter stands for Introvert or Extrovert. Just a guess though.

I got this from Wikipedia:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-briggs

I vs E  (Introvert vs Extrovert)
S vs I (Sensing vs Intuition)
T vs F (Thinking vs Feeling)
J vs P (Judging vs Perceiving)

Br. Patrick has much additional info about what all this means, so you can PM him for more info if you're interested.
