I LOVE working this this assessment...but need to warn you...1. Introverted does not mean shy/withdrawn but rather how you process information>inward, thinking before you speak 2. you don't need to 'own' the entire characterization just because it's in writing, but find the bits that apply to you 3. you are the other types as well...you are also extroverted, feeling, perceptive, etc...but like being right or left handed, these are less dominant 4. type can change, especially in times crisis or life changes ( lilke turning a 'zero' year, 30-40-50...when we try to re-think our 'selves' and our life's path) and....5. depending on whether or not you dwelled upon each answer, you might not have gotten a good 'read' on the results (MBTI needs to be taken quickly, not thinking about the response for a long period... but rather going by gut first) Have fun with the MBTI...ohhhh one more thing...it might suggest occupational areas...just because it says you would be best at one thing based on your personality type, doesn't mean you can't lend your characteristics to the occupation of your dreams! example: I'm an ENFJ, well suited for counseling/teaching...but I could still become an accountant...I'd probably focus my nurturing skills on guiding my clients rather than on intense finance! KWIM??? Helen,
I have to reveal here that I’m a trained pro in the administration and interpretation of the MBTI (I was trained by the folks at Consulting Psychologists Press here in Palo Alto, CA). I LOVE working this this assessment…but need to warn you…1. Introverted does not mean shy/withdrawn but rather how you process information>inward, thinking before you speak 2. you don’t need to ‘own’ the entire characterization just because it’s in writing, but find the bits that apply to you
3. you are the other types as well…you are also extroverted, feeling, perceptive, etc…but like being right or left handed, these are less dominant 4. type can change, especially in times crisis or life changes ( lilke turning a ‘zero’ year, 30-40-50…when we try to re-think our ’selves’ and our life’s path) and….5. depending on whether or not you dwelled upon each answer, you might not have gotten a good ‘read’ on the results (MBTI needs to be taken quickly, not thinking about the response for a long period… but rather going by gut first)

Have fun with the MBTI…ohhhh one more thing…it might suggest occupational areas…just because it says you would be best at one thing based on your personality type, doesn’t mean you can’t lend your characteristics to the occupation of your dreams! example: I’m an ENFJ, well suited for counseling/teaching…but I could still become an accountant…I’d probably focus my nurturing skills on guiding my clients rather than on intense finance! KWIM???
