Personality Test INFJ

I took the Jung Typology Test today. It was very interesting. I guess my personality type is an INFJ. Which means Introvert Intuitive Feeling Judging. It labels this personality type "Counselor" which is funny to me because I feel like, if I ever get the opportunity to go back and finish college I would work towards a degree in counseling. It's what I feel has been laid upon my heart and it's something Gary and I talk about quite often. The website also breaks down the 4 basic temperaments and my personality falls in the temperament of an Idealist.

Here is the description:

Counselors have an exceptionally strong desire to contribute to the welfare of others, and find great personal fulfillment interacting with people, nurturing their personal development, guiding them to realize their human potential. Although they are happy working at jobs (such as writing) that require solitude and close attention, Counselors do quite well with individuals or groups of people, provided that the personal interactions are not superficial, and that they find some quiet, private time every now and then to recharge their batteries. Counselors are both kind and positive in their handling of others; they are great listeners and seem naturally interested in helping people with their personal problems. Not usually visible leaders, Counselors prefer to work intensely with those close to them, especially on a one-to-one basis, quietly exerting their influence behind the scenes.
Counselors are scarce, little more than one percent of the population, and can be hard to get to know, since they tend not to share their innermost thoughts or their powerful emotional reactions except with their loved ones. They are highly private people, with an unusually rich, complicated inner life. Friends or colleagues who have known them for years may find sides emerging which come as a surprise. Not that Counselors are flighty or scattered; they value their integrity a great deal, but they have mysterious, intricately woven personalities which sometimes puzzle even them.
Counselors tend to work effectively in organizations. They value staff harmony and make every effort to help an organization run smoothly and pleasantly. They understand and use human systems creatively, and are good at consulting and cooperating with others. As employees or employers, Counselors are concerned with people's feelings and are able to act as a barometer of the feelings within the organization.
Blessed with vivid imaginations, Counselors are often seen as the most poetical of all the types, and in fact they use a lot of poetic imagery in their everyday language. Their great talent for language-both written and spoken-is usually directed toward communicating with people in a personalized way. Counselors are highly intuitive and can recognize another's emotions or intentions - good or evil - even before that person is aware of them. Counselors themselves can seldom tell how they came to read others' feelings so keenly. This extreme sensitivity to others could very well be the basis of the Counselor's remarkable ability to experience a whole array of psychic phenomena.


My personality falls in to that of an Idealist Temperament:

All Idealists (NFs) share the following core characteristics:
Idealists are enthusiastic, they trust their intuition, yearn for romance, seek their true self, prize meaningful relationships, and dream of attaining wisdom.
Idealists pride themselves on being loving, kindhearted, and authentic.
Idealists tend to be giving, trusting, spiritual, and they are focused on personal journeys and human potentials.
Idealists make intense mates, nurturing parents, and inspirational leaders.


I also read the other 3 temperaments and I do agree I fall primarily into this one. I am sure everyone has a primary and also a secondary temperament or could even possibly contain characteristics of all 3 or even 4. But surely there is one that is more predominately you. If you have not taken the test, if you have a few minutes check it out. http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp . It also has careers that fit the type of personality you are. Yes, I am a nerd who enjoys this type of stuff. Hahaha and it fits into this INFJ personality type of always trying to learn about my self and hoping to better myself. Let me know your type if you do it and babe I want to know yours!!!! I think I already know, but I want to see if I'm right.

That's cool!! I think that description fits you well... from what I know of you. But there are always new sides of you emerging... hehe :)

You've just convinced me to ignore my work a little longer and go take the test!

That's cool about your career path as a counselor -- I have always thought you would be great at that!
Okay I am INTJ (is that what you guessed?). As for careers, management was one they suggested for me...but I don't know ;-)

I think this part is probably accurate: "In their careers, Masterminds usually rise to positions of responsibility, for they work long and hard and are dedicated in their pursuit of goals, sparing neither their own time and effort nor that of their colleagues and employees. Problem-solving is highly stimulating to Masterminds, who love responding to tangled systems that require careful sorting out. Ordinarily, they verbalize the positive and avoid comments of a negative nature; they are more interested in moving an organization forward than dwelling on mistakes of the past.
Masterminds tend to be much more definite and self-confident than other Rationals, having usually developed a very strong will. Decisions come easily to them; in fact, they can hardly rest until they have things settled and decided. But before they decide anything, they must do the research."
What do you think of this part? "While they are capable of caring deeply for others (usually a select few), and are willing to spend a great deal of time and effort on a relationship, the knowledge and self-confidence that make them so successful in other areas can suddenly abandon or mislead them in interpersonal situations.
This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand. Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense. :-) This sometimes results in a peculiar naivete', paralleling that of many Fs -- only instead of expecting inexhaustible affection and empathy from a romantic relationship, the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness.
Probably the strongest INTJ assets in the interpersonal area are their intuitive abilities and their willingness to "work at" a relationship. Although as Ts they do not always have the kind of natural empathy that many Fs do, the Intuitive function can often act as a good substitute by synthesizing the probable meanings behind such things as tone of voice, turn of phrase, and facial expression. This ability can then be honed and directed by consistent, repeated efforts to understand and support those they care about, and those relationships which ultimately do become established with an INTJ tend to be characterized by their robustness, stability, and good communications."

Hmmm, I took the test and I'm a ENFJ. I don't agree with all it says though.......

It said Martha Stewart had my personality type, hahaha!

Michelle - You are very Martha Stewart! We are almost the same except you are an extrovert and I am an introvert.
I 'll have to read the description to see if it sounds like you.
