I definitely agree with this quote. Once we are defined as something, we feel constrained to just our title and do not have room to grow. People change and should not be limited to their "box". Everyone is different. Each type is unique, but should be viewed equally.
I am not surprised with my results of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. I am an ESFJ- meaning extraversion, sensing, feeling, judging. However, on the spectrum I was not very strong in each category, meaning I can be swayed to the other side. Digging into each category....
E - I am a very outgoing person and do get my energy from other people. If everyone's spirits are up, so are mine.
S - I am all about sensing rather than intuition. I am a very upfront and take as it is kind of girl. I do not look at the big picture of things, although I wish I did. I envy people who are N's.
F - If you don't know me, I am a very emotional person. When it comes to making decisions, I always think about how it will affect other people because I don't want to step on anyones toes.
J - I prefer a planned and organized approach to life. I don't know what I would do without my planner!
I think this leadership test is so AWESOME! And so ACCURATE!
i think it is interesting to see someone whose results were more middle of the road considering mine were so extreme to one end or the other. this makes me curious: do you find yourself acting in ways contradictory to your MBTI often? or are you just not extremely overt in your opinionation.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had fun taking the test! And I agree with you completely on the fact that people's judgments of themselves are affected after taking tests like these.
