You Are An ENFP

The Inspirer You love being around people, and you are deeply committed to your friends. You are also unconventional, irreverent, and unimpressed by authority. Incredibly perceptive, you can usually sense if someone has hidden motives. You use lots of colorful language and expressions. You're quite the storyteller! In love, you are quite the charmer. And you are definitely willing to risk your heart. You often don't follow through with your flirting or professed feelings. You break a lot of hearts. At work, you are driven but not a workaholic. You just always seem to enjoy what you do. You would make an excellent entrepreneur, politician, or journalist. How you see yourself: compassionate, unselfish, and understanding When other people don't get you, they see you as: gushy, emotional, and unfocused

This is a different result than I am used to. But, OTOH, I feel more comfortable in my skin these days than I think ever before, so take that FWIW. (Are there enough acronyms in there?)

I haven't been posting much lately. Being busy is part of that, but not everything. I continue to be interested in reading yor stuffs, though.

I took this test as an experiment. Its a terrible 'digest' version with no accuracy whatsoever. The Meyers-Briggs test is a very useful test based on the personality theories of Carl Jung. This internet test is an abbreviation with no veracity, and I say this as a professional. If you are interested in the full version I can arrange that. I also do 'fun' IQ testing and love giving my friend the rorschach.

Your results can vary over time. I took the real version recently, the new II version. It's provides more detailed and nuanced analysis than the older version.

(I know what presterjon is saying, though I've found that the final four-letter acronym results of the various free online versions do tend to produce the same results *for me* as the real version, but without the detailed analysis that makes it truly meaningful.)

P.S. we've fallen off the walking schedule. I do miss it.

This is SO me: (PS: LOVED the teacher or lawyer question!!)

The Giver

You strive to maintain harmony in relationships, and you usually succeed.
Articulate and enthusiastic, you are good at making personal connections.
Sometimes you idealize relationships too much - and end up being let down.
You find the most energy and comfort in social situations ... where you shine.

In love, you are very protective and supporting.
However, you do need to "feel special" - and it's quite easy for you to get jealous.

At work, you are a natural leader. You can help people discover their greatest potential.
You would make a good writer, human resources director, or psychologist.

How you see yourself: Trusting, idealistic, and expressive

When other people don't get you, they see you as: Bossy, inappropriate, and loud
