ENFJ: "Pedagogue". Outstanding leader of groups. Can be aggressive at helping others to be the best that they can be.

And there's totally a typo in the description.

I can't remember what I've come out on this before. Just know the "E" has never changed.

And oh yeah, I swear, it seems as if every list has "journalist" on it. Guess anyone can be one. *grin*
At least, that's what all the at-home bloggers think.

INFP

INFP's feel internal turmoil when they find themselves in situations in which there is conflict between their inner code of ethics and their relationships with others. They feel caught between pleasing others and maintaining their own integrity. Their natural tendency to identify with others, compounded with their self-sacrificial dispositions, tends to leave them confused as to who they really are. Their quiet personalities further feeds their feelings of depersonalization. The INFP's quest for self-identity then seems even more alluring — but increasingly impossible to attain.

A lot of the above does not fit- but I am introverted and require a lot of solitude.

As with all NFs, the INFP will feel lost and perplexed at stressful times. As stress builds, INFP's become disconnected from their own personality and perceived place in life. They will lose sight of who they are in relation to time and place. They may not make basic observations, while instead they will focus on the more abstract and symbolic meanings of a particular interaction. This can sometimes baffle those who expect more direct communication and a fairly concrete relationship.

Hummmmm... I am an abstract and analytical thinker.

Hey all!

Just wanted to toss something out here, maybe clear up a little confusion or whatever. A number of folks have commented on how their codes have changed at different times - that's not terribly unusual. I haven't taken the test from the link on this thread, so I'm not sure how it presents the results, but a myer's briggs given and scored by a clinician is going to report the four dimensions along dimensions. For instance, the first code is Extroversion/Introversion. On the results printout you'd get a line with 100% E on one end and 100% I on the other end. While I suppose statistically speaking are probably a few who end up on either end, most of us fall somewhere in between the two. It's often the case that one or more codes fall more towards the middle, and those are the ones that may change over time. Codes that fall more towards either end tend to be stable over time. So there is room for some change and it's actually quite common. In fact, if you know that you fall close to the middle on a dimension it'd be good to read over the description of both ends for that dimension as you're probably a combination of the two.

Happy Myers-brigging!

I'm an INFP. My job's not a dreamer-job, but that's alright. I need the structure of my 8-5 cubicle life to keep me going. It's so hard to create my own structure.

INFP's feel internal turmoil when they find themselves in situations in which there is conflict between their inner code of ethics and their relationships with others. They feel caught between pleasing others and maintaining their own integrity.

so far the only ENTP...
i am pretty sure the first 3 are constants for me... tho i do tend to flip on the P/J...

i thought it was interesting that the vast majority that tested in this group came as I... but... that seemed to me to feel wakked because a lot of the folks that tested as I are folks that share a lot here...
i assume that could mean nothing... i mean... this is almost anonymous... well... sorta... you dont have to come out in front of anyone to speak out here... and... you can keep what you want to yourself...
yeah... its prolly not as interesting as i thought it was...

Always the same and always describes me fairly well. Pretty much the only personality test that's ever really gotten much right. As far as the career part, it's consistant with what I studied in university/will continue to study in uni, and hopefully eventually go on to do at a higher level. I really enjoy philosophy and critical theory. Doesn't mention my current job, though I think that's because of the reputation it tends to have, unfortunately. Actually, part of the reason why I'm unhappy at my current job is because it does involve sales lol

ISFJ: "Conservator". These people are service and work oriented - very loyal. They may suffer from fatigue and tend to be attracted to troublemakers. They are good nurses, teachers, secretaries, general practitioners, librarians, middle managers, and housekeepers. 6% of the total population.

I don't know about being attracted to troublemakers... but I was a damn good nurse! Too bad I got burnt out on it and PTSD makes it so that I can't think or concentrate well enough to do it anymore. Kinda interesting though, I was thinking about going back to school and becoming a kindergarten teacher

I have taken this 'test' a few times, and lately I have hovered between I for introverted and E for extraverted. I was very surprised the first time I got I, but it is definitely true that I need more time to myself to be comfortable and productive than I did a few years ago. The jobs mentioned in the descriptions make a lot of sense.

No matter what the subject or the purpose of that test, it always come up with INFP.

I didn't read the careers it recommended for me, but I know my job is a good fit. I get to spend the day on the phone encouraging and reprimanding people. And as a lower middle supervisor I have enough responsibility to keep me busy but not so much that I have to take the stress of my job home with me.

JustJo · 01-17-2011, 04:18 PM

I cringe at some of this, but all true

And I'm a project manager....so it fits.

INTJs’ precision thinking and need for accuracy causes them to be inflexible at times. Having thought out a strategy, the INTJ may stubbornly disregard those who they think have not spent as much time reflecting on an idea as they have. This, along with their drive to produce something significant, can make them demanding and difficult. If their plans and solutions fall short of their high standards, INTJ's feel pressured — as if everything is on the line. "Everything," for an INTJ, is the competence and ability to produce something significant. Fear of not living up to this expectation will increase their stress and possibly dissuade them from risking or trying out their ideas. They may then find themselves thinking about ideas that do not have a meaningful or productive end.

When stress increases, the INTJ can become argumentative and disagreeable. Social interaction, which is not their strength, becomes increasingly difficult for them. Not trusting their own abilities, they become preoccupied with obsessive notions. The INTJ may then find themselves spending an inordinate amount of time fighting horrible thoughts, tempting absurdities, and feelings of worthlessness. Fearful of others recognizing their perceived failure, the INTJ incessantly ruminates about mistakes, inadequacies, weaknesses, ineptness, and incompetence. Because this distracts them from risking what little confidence they may have left in themselves, it therefore keeps them from obtaining the success and achievement they so desperately need.

ENFJ's are outstanding group leaders. They try hard to help others be the best that they can be. 5% of the total population.

The ENFJ's optimistic outlook toward social relationships is a burden to them at times. When external conflicts affect a group, the ENFJ is likely to assume responsibility. Their ability to empathize then turns into a liability. ENFJ's, when over-identifying with the pain of others, will loose sight of their own concerns and interests. Their idealism can also be the cause of some distress when their assumptions are unable to weather the winds of reality. Fantasized relationships rarely translate into reality and even the best charismatic leader encounters unexpected resistance.

Like all NFs, ENFJ's will disassociate themselves from stressful situations in an effort to protect their sense of well-being and togetherness. The ENFJ, however, will repress the unpleasant side of life only to have to face it later in an intensified form when it explodes from its hiding place. It can manifest itself as fits of anger, sudden outbursts, or emotional explosions. Often the ENFJ's body will reflect pent-up stress by manifesting various physical symptoms that will erupt unexpectedly.

ISFJ

Hmmmmmmmmm

deb_U_taunt · 05-28-2011, 01:50 PM

First one in the door to the Alanon meeting -

The ISFJ feels a strong sense of responsibility and duty. They take their responsibilities very seriously, and can be counted on to follow through. For this reason, people naturally tend to rely on them. The ISFJ has a difficult time saying "no" when asked to do something, and may become over-burdened. In such cases, the ISFJ does not usually express their difficulties to others, because they intensely dislike conflict, and because they tend to place other people's needs over their own. The ISFJ needs to learn to identify, value, and express their own needs, if they wish to avoid becoming over-worked and taken for granted.

ISFJs need positive feedback from others. In the absence of positive feedback, or in the face of criticism, the ISFJ gets discouraged, and may even become depressed. When down on themselves or under great stress, the ISFJ begins to imagine all of the things that might go critically wrong in their life. They have strong feelings of inadequacy, and become convinced that "everything is all wrong", or "I can't do anything right".

The ISFJ is warm, generous, and dependable. They have many special gifts to offer, in their sensitivity to others, and their strong ability to keep things running smoothly. They need to remember to not be overly critical of themselves, and to give themselves some of the warmth and love which they freely dispense to others.

I didn't read the careers it recommended for me, but I know my job is a good fit. I get to spend the day on the phone encouraging and reprimanding people. And as a lower middle supervisor I have enough responsibility to keep me busy but not so much that I have to take the stress of my job home with me.

INTJs’ precision thinking and need for accuracy causes them to be inflexible at times. Having thought out a strategy, the INTJ may stubbornly disregard those who they think have not spent as much time reflecting on an idea as they have. This, along with their drive to produce something significant, can make them demanding and difficult. If their plans and solutions fall short of their high standards, INTJ's feel pressured — as if everything is on the line. "Everything," for an INTJ, is the competence and ability to produce something significant. Fear of not living up to this expectation will increase their stress and possibly dissuade them from risking or trying out their ideas. They may then find themselves thinking about ideas that do not have a meaningful or productive end. When stress increases, the INTJ can become argumentative and disagreeable. Social interaction, which is not their strength, becomes increasingly difficult for them. Not trusting their own abilities, they become preoccupied with obsessive notions. The INTJ may then find themselves spending an inordinate amount of time fighting horrible thoughts, tempting absurdities, and feelings of worthlessness. Fearful of others recognizing their perceived failure, the INTJ incessantly ruminates about mistakes, inadequacies, weaknesses, ineptness, and incompetence. Because this distracts them from risking what little confidence they may have left in themselves, it therefore keeps them from obtaining the success and achievement they so desperately need.

They try hard to help others be the best that they can be. 5% of the total population. The ENFJ's optimistic outlook toward social relationships is a burden to them at times. When external conflicts affect a group, the ENFJ is likely to assume responsibility. Their ability to empathize then turns into a liability. ENFJ's, when over-identifying with the pain of others, will loose sight of their own concerns and interests. Their idealism can also be the cause of some distress when their assumptions are unable to weather the winds of reality. Fantasized relationships rarely translate into reality and even the best charismatic leader encounters unexpected resistance. Like all NFs, ENFJ's will disassociate themselves from stressful situations in an effort to protect their sense of well-being and togetherness. The ENFJ, however, will repress the unpleasant side of life only to have to face it later in an intensified form when it explodes from its hiding place. It can manifest itself as fits of anger, sudden outbursts, or emotional explosions. Often the ENFJ's body will reflect pent-up stress by manifesting various physical symptoms that will erupt unexpectedly.

They take their responsibilities very seriously, and can be counted on to follow through. For this reason, people naturally tend to rely on them. The ISFJ has a difficult time saying "no" when asked to do something, and may become over-burdened. In such cases, the ISFJ does not usually express their difficulties to others, because they intensely dislike conflict, and because they tend to place other people's needs over their own. The ISFJ needs to learn to identify, value, and express their own needs, if they wish to avoid becoming over-worked and taken for granted. ISFJs need positive feedback from others. In the absence of positive feedback, or in the face of criticism, the ISFJ gets discouraged, and may even become depressed. When down on themselves or under great stress, the ISFJ begins to imagine all of the things that might go critically wrong in their life. They have strong feelings of inadequacy, and become convinced that "everything is all wrong", or "I can't do anything right". The ISFJ is warm, generous, and dependable. They have many special gifts to offer, in their sensitivity to others, and their strong ability to keep things running smoothly. They need to remember to not be overly critical of themselves, and to give themselves some of the warmth and love which they freely dispense to others.
