Comments on: “I’m an ENTJ” http://sydneyowen.com/2009/07/01/im-an-entj/ a raw take on my life as it is: unpredictable, frightening and wildly exciting.

When I found out I was INTJ, it was a huge epiphany and it was all I could talk about for a while too. I think learning about type is especially impacting for a lot of NT's and NF's who feel they don't quite fit in in our society. I’m a huge fan of personality typing, both MBTI and also Enneagram.

When I took the test I was an INTJ but in the past 3 years I've definitely joined the ranks of the E side of the spectrum, I do have my introvert moments though. I love personality tests though - I think it's fun to try to figure people out. I read this on the iPhone a few weeks ago and forgot I never commented to tell you I’m also an ENTJ.

It was actually kind of surprising because I had always thought of myself as an introvert but I guess being a blogger and on Twitter would prove me otherwise. I really do love this test and agree that it is one of the few that can really help put things in perspective. Sometimes it's nice to have your life boil down to four letters. Great blog - first time stopping by. In college I took part in a company outing where we all took a Myers-Briggs test and I learned that I was an ENFP.

Even if *you* know what your personality is, taking the test can actually help others. Caring employers can find a better place for you in the company, e.g. put you in an environment you feel more comfortable in or set up teams that harmonize more because they think alike and communicate the same way. Things can run much more smoothly. Also, knowing others' Myers-Briggs personality types makes it easier to cope with them once you learned how different personality types interact with each other and what they prefer or dislike. I find the Myers-Briggs test to be very accurate. Sometimes you need to see your strengths and weaknesses in black and white to realize where you can capitalize or have to work on.

I'm not one to tout a test that tells you how you are, but there are some really interesting (and true) insights in the MB test. I can attest to this because ever since my high school basketball coach who took MB seriously coached each of us differently and helped us better understand how we acted not just on the court but in life, I have been hooked. My freshman year of college I also took the test as part of a small group communications course. I am an ENFP and always enjoy reading through hearing my personality strengths and weaknesses. I agree with the test and answers, on almost all accounts. What's even more interesting is to compare your type to others'. Thanks for sharing! Love the Myers-Briggs test.
