Personality

I am ENFJ

When i looked at the career paths recommended i found it interesting that one of them was education and my major going into college next year is early childhood education. It also gave me a 67 in judging which means i make sound decisions, i would have thought i would have had a higher score on emotion because i consider myself to be a very emotional person.



My Goals in life

value financial success about as centrally as the typical study participant. less central value on social recognition than the typical study participant. substantially less central value on attractiveness than the typical study participant. more central value on affiliation than the typical study participant. substantially more central value on community involvement than the typical study participant. slightly more central value on self-acceptance than the typical study participant. prioritize intrinsic goals over extrinsic goals substantially more than the typical study participant. This was not surprising because i know i have a strong priority of helping people and building relationships with people i care about than maybe attractiveness because looks will fade of frame and money because that can go as easily as it came.



Are you Satisfied with you life?

Your score on Satisfaction with Life was 25.00. Based on previous research, we classify you as being slightly satisfied with your life overall. I find this a tad bit surprising because i do feel like i am quite content with my life at the moment.



Attractiveness

Individuals who score high on this dimension tend to be particularly attracted to men that are sexually suggestive and expressive. Low scorers tend to prefer guys that are more modest about their sexuality. Individuals that score high on this dimension are particularly attracted to guys that look happy, fun-loving, and upbeat. Individuals who score high on this dimension tend to be particularly attracted to men that look intelligent and soft-hearted.


What's your EQ?
Congratulations! You have very high emotional intelligence. This is good news! EQ counts for twice as much as IQ and technical skills combined in determining who will be a star performer. Your level of EQ likely has been and will be a driver of your high performance for years to come. Areas to work on: While you are doing well - don't forget to take time out of your busy day-to-day activities to stop and reflect on what brings you the greatest meaning in your life. If we fail to do this on a regular basis, we risk becoming tranquilized by the trivial. Sedated by the small details. Yes, deadlines need meeting and goals must be achieved. But if we are working toward goals that are not in alignment with our key values and greater purpose, we face becoming hostile and cynical - losing the reason we are doing 'all of this' in this first place! This translates into less joy and enthusiasm for our work - resulting in a diminished ability to be effective, at ease, and on purpose. As William James said: I have no doubt whatever that most people live, whether physically, intellectually, or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being. They make use of a very small portion of their possible consciousness... much like a man who, out of his whole body organism, should get into the habit of using and moving only his little finger... We all have reservoirs of life to draw upon, of which we do not dream.

This isn't very surprising to me because I've come to this of myself as a very composed emotionally stable being. I try not to let the little things in life get me down. I mean we all have our days it's just how we recover from it.

Wow! Your descriptions of each test were very long and thorough! I agree that although some of the tests seemed valid, not all of them were.

You were very through on each description of each test's results. Its good that you talked about what you thought about each result. Yes some of the tests did not seem valid while some of the others were quite accurate.
