Self-Evaluation Report
According to Keirsey Temperament Sorter, my personality is ESFJ or guardian provider. According to the report, I am considered an extrovert and I have the ability to take in information by sensing. My third psychological preference suggests that I base my decisions on personal feelings. In dealing with the outside world, my personality is judging. Overall, I agree with my MBTI personality test.
Extroverts tend to have very outgoing personalities. They are considered a people person and enjoy being around others. This person does not like seclusion or loneliness; it usually makes them very restless. Extroverts are very actively involved in events. Jobs that require constant contact with people; such as, human resource specialists, actors, public relations specialists and sales managers, are ideal careers for extroverts.
Taking information in by sensing requires a person to pay attention to physical existence of their surroundings. People must actually use their senses of seeing, touching, smelling, and tasting as a means for making decisions. Sensing people want the “bottom line”, in other words they only want the facts and pertinent information. An example of some sensing characteristics for me is test driving a vehicle before I purchase it or wanting to taste a wedding cake before I order it.
When one bases their decisions on feelings, it is described as being logical and consistent. The feeling personality is usually one that is caring and warm. People also tend to be courteous and polite towards others. I see myself displaying this personality, especially when I am at work caring for my patients and interacting with them in a rational and friendly manner.
Judging is the decision making personality that involves organization and consistency. I display this when I go through my daily schedule of events and responsibilities, which include

    The personality of an individual is perceived as the characteristics that shape and distinguishes one person from another, at least from a general perspective. For instance, John may be described as quiet and decisive in the way he handles different situations. On another hand, we would have Peter who is very irrational. These two distinctive characters would describe the personalities of those two individuals. However, psychologists are more particular and define personality as a dynamic with the inclusion of an organized set of characteristics possessed by an individual that distinctively or uniquely influences his or her motivations,…

    Rational thinking and logic-driven thinking and will aid you in keeping in touch with reality and being in control of yourself. You can observe someone’s decision-making skills based on this, since most of your decisions portray your Ego. The Ego is a median for The Superego and The Id, while wanting to still pleasure the desires of The Id, but in a rational way that The Superego would allow. However, some people’s Ego may lean more towards either the side of The Id or the side of The Superego, therefore making our view of them and judgement of them possibly different from most people, but understanding what drives a person’s behavior will help us humanize them.…

Our reading material also state, certainly we don’t act the same way in all situations.

    The type of personalities of every individual is very important. While doing an evaluation of myself using Jung Typology Test, I discovered that I was an ENFJ individual. My primary objective is identity seeking. My life consists of being a teacher or a giver. An ENFJ is an extraverted, iNtuitive, feeling, and judging person. “Each of the ENFJ’s preferences compound to make them a natural convincer. Their energy comes from the outwardly directed, socially oriented, gregarious external world (Extraversion). They prefer to perceive the world as having endless possibilities and meanings (iNtuition), which they use to make subjective, interpersonally based decisions (Feelings). They prefer to live their daily lives in a structured, scheduled, and orderly fashion (Judging), (Kroeger, Thuesen, & Rutledge, pg. 386).” This means that I have extraverted feelings with introverted intuitions. I am a people- focused individual. However, I am considered a smooth talker and very persuading. It is said that ENFJ’s are natural sales people. I found it funny that this statement is true. I am an insurance agent with Allstate. My everyday life…

    The strength and power that come from extroverts is all the more compelling, however, many people forget of the silent capability of introverts. Now it is time for introverts to take a stand against popular beliefs and quietly demonstrate to the world their abilities that have been cast aside. Instead of risk-taking thinkers being the center of attention, people who put in a large amount of thought will silently rise to the occasion. Although extroversion is the ideal in the western world, introverts also have their advantages, such as innovative and meticulous ability, in the work environment, and are, therefore, just as adept as extroverts in their abilities to rise to higher positions in the work force.…

    This week we began learning more about our own personality type through the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assessment. I am a ISFJ. According to Kummerow and Hirsh (1998), this means I am an introvert who prefers to take in information using my five senses, base my decisions on personal and social values, and like a planned and organized approach to the outside world (pg. 1).…

    In the Myers-Briggs Type indicator/Jung’s Typology Test results I scored ENFJ, which stands for extrovert, intuitive, feeler, and judger. These results seem extremely accurate to me. I do enjoy spending time with people, talking to them, and trying my best to understand them. People fascinate me yet I find it difficult to open up to the people around me, which is a common characteristic among ENFJ’s. Being intuitive, I tend to look at the big picture rather than detail. I rely on my gut rather than my conscious. As a feeler, the decisions I make tie in with the values I grew up learning, leading with my heart and naturally gravitate towards people. Lastly, as a judger, I am super organized! Having a preference towards planned and settled activities.…

    First I took the personaily test that stated that my personality type is ENTJ. For me to obtain an understanding of my personality type, it is important for me to develop an interpretation of the meaning of ENTJ. Briefly, the ‘E’ refers to Extroversion (vs. Introversion), which means that I am outgoing and tend to focus on the outer world of people and things. The ‘N’ refers to Intuitive (vs. Sensing), which means my interests lie in relationships, and I focus on the future with a view towards patterns and possibilities. The ‘T’ refers to Thinking (vs. Feelings), which means I tend to base decisions primarily on thinking things through instead of emotions. The ‘J’ refers to Judging (vs. Perceptive), which means I prefer to approach life in a more planned and organized manner and like to have things settled. On an overall perspective, as an EFTJ, I am a warm, empathetic, responsive, and responsible person. I am highly attuned to the emotions, needs, and motivations of others. I look to find potential and good in everyone, and I enjoy helping others to fulfill their potential. I can be a catalyst for individual and group growth, as I am loyal and responsive to praise and criticism. I am sociable, a good facilitator to others in a group and can provide inspiring leadership.…

    I chose to do the self-assessment of CareerLeader to try and help me get a feel for what career fields connect with my motivations and my interests. My interests rated as a personal high was not a surprise to me with the application of technology, being the highest score with 87. The description behind application of technology was interested in learning about and using new technologies. Enjoy analyzing and designing (or redesigning) business processes such as production and operations systems. Which is relatively true I enjoy doing in-depth research into the newest upcoming technology and how I can use it. The description section about enjoying analyzing the business process stood out to me, I catch myself doing this often in any situation I’m a part of. One thing CareerLeader said to be aware of was if I was seeking a job in the engineering field some places will not accept me if I do not have an engineering degree. I took this interest as being more relatable to the newest technology a company could use to help its sales, finances, and PR.…

    A person that judge is a person who organizes all his or her life events and, as a rule, sticks to his plans. I am that person who sticks to what I am use to doing and rarely ever deviate to anything new. Perceiving means that he or she is inclined to improvise and explore alternative options. I am that way, I use alternative methods to help explore and solve situations as they arrive, such as previous information received or researched. My judging vs perceiving was 41% meaning that I am organized, I stick to what I say I am going to do. This is true for me. I rarely improvise unless I am having a hard time figuring something out on my own.…

    Istj

    Based on the personality profile I completed in class my personality type is ISTJ, Introverted Sensing Thinking Judging. According to various sources on personality types ISTJ's are often referred to as "Inspectors". I agree with a lot of what I have read about my personality type. ISTJ's often give the initial impression of being aloof and perhaps somewhat cold. This is perhaps one of the truest statements about me that I have seen. Many people find me to be cold and standoffish if not conceited and stuck-up. I prefer spending time alone, or with a few close people rather than go to parties, bars, or clubs. Very often when I go to the mall or other chaotic places I am over stimulated and overwhelmed by the people and the commotion. After an hour or two of such activity I feel the need to go home, it becomes too much for me.…
