E.N.T.J, ISFP, PBIP, OPKJ what?
I'm an ENTJ.
-Trinkets
A while back, there had been a most popular book that was rediscovered and circulated among the members of the UCM, or at least those members of the UCM that love to read. I'm usually not one for reading unless it has sparkly things and pictures to go with it, but it seemed like this book was becoming quite the popular item. I began hearing people refered to by their persona type, it wasn't an uncommon thing to hear some one yell out "ESFJ's!" I was greatly entertained, and as such can not withold from a good bandwagon, so I jumped on.
-The Persona
Some person, which I shall refer to by his nickname(appropriately hailed) "The Rocket." So 'The Rocket' was helping another person to answer the questionaire the book had provided for determining certain qualities. At this point, the rave was pretty much over and I still hadn't a clue what I was so I just had to find out while it was still a hot topic. I found the book lying on an autmun later that day and took the test. I scored 7/3 E to I; 10/11 S to N; 12/8 T to F; and 15/6 J to P. This makes me an ENTJ.
I realize that my counting is off, that all test are for the most part bias when given their own key or reference, and that my answers to the questions were based on how I felt at the moment and could not represent what I feel at any given moment, and finally that personalities can change over time. Recognizing all that, I'm still glad that, I do appreciate some one being decisive enough to see the characteristics in people.
-The ENTJ in Brief-
I totally agreed with the book that, and I quote:"..if one word were used to capture EntJ's style, it would be commandantI"(David Keirsey and Marilyn Bates. Please Understand Me: character and temperament types"4th ed. 1984. [pg.187]). I coincide on the points that I like structure, I will ask questions till I understand the vision of an orgainization clearly, I envision the task even further, I must have a reason for doing anything, I get annoyed when others in a group setting do not follow the same set of rules with the same attention to detail, Inefficiancy is not an option for me. I will take charge of a situation if it fits the organization's vision but there are none that are stepping up. ENTJ's comprize and estimated 5% of the population.
But because of a 1 point difference,
-The ESTJ in brief-
ESTJ's think more with intuition than the ENTJ's. As an ESTJ, I like more 'matter-of-fact' input than theory. ESTJ's represent 13% of the population.
.... and... it's late now; so to help The Rocket go home and get him his book back, I'll leave it at that. I think you get an idea about what these personalities are about though.
I HIGHLY recomend picking this book up from your local book store if you get the chance. It's "Please Understand Me: charcter & temperament types" by David Deirsey and Marilyn Bates. I'm headed to bed now.
God bless you and keep you all!
