My Personality Type

When we took the personality quiz, my personality type was an INFJ.  My statistics showed that I am an introvert, intuitive, feeling, and judging.  I have a moderate preference of introversion over extroversion.  I have a slight preference over intuition over sensing.  I have marginal or no preference of feeling over sensing.  I have a moderate reference of judging over perceiving.  Some notable people with the same personality type are: Plato, Gandhi, Thomas Jefferson, and Mary Wollstonecraft.

I think that this describes me pretty well.  I thought that I would be considered more introverted.  Something that is "Right on" is that I am quiet, caring and sensitive and I listen to and try to solve other people's problems.  Something that wasn't as accurate is that INFJs trust their ability to read others well.  I do not trust myself to accurately read someone.

One article said that INFJs enjoy doing art, playing/listening to music, and reading.  This all applies to me.  I think one of the reasons this is true is because of my introverted personality trait.

I am usually either the leader or the person that can do pretty much whatever else is needed of me.  I don't think that my personality type is  leading type, but I think that they are the kind of person that can do whatever people need them to.

I think that in the past, people have mistaken my introverted personality as me just being lazy.  I have been told by people to "toughen up" when I have difficulty public speaking.  I have learned that I have the least common personality type.

Lion/Otter/Beaver/Golden Retriever

For the second test that we took, my highest column was column 3.  That means that my highest personality type is a golden retriever.  I think that it is mostly accurate.  I am loyal, sensitive, caring, work well with a steady work pattern, and have only a few close friends.  My second highest column was column 4.  This means that I am also a beaver.  I think that this is more accurate than the last column.  I think that there is a right way to do things and I always try to do things that way.  I am creative, take my time, and need reassurance.  I also have unrealistic expectations for myself.
