Myers-Briggs

Sitting in a telecon...

Courtesy of rosefox... a new version of the MBTI test that allows intermediate or non-determinate inputs. My results haven't changed:

Your personality type is ENTP.

Extraverted (E) 50% Introverted (I) 50%
Intuitive (N) 91% Sensing (S) 9%
Thinking (T) 60% Feeling (F) 40%
Perceiving (P) 82% Judging (J) 18%

The "Feeling" vs. "Thinking" balance has shifted F-ward about 15 points over the past couple of years, which could reflect self-discovery and integration or simply that I'm growing fuzzy-headed with age... ;-).

Thanks... that's reassuring, it has taken a while to gain self-assurance and rip loose old (figurative) scar tissue. I feel much happier with the social connections in which I exist now -- friends, communities, partners and colleagues -- than my relative isolation of five years ago or more.

So I have something else in common with Akien... interesting. Talking with him about it and sharing experiences (and recovery strategies) would be good...

"Shy Extravert" sounds about right... quiet and unassuming in groups, a bit hesitant -- but desperately wanting to be there and socialize. That low profile also means fewer party/event invitations, which wouldn't bother a true introvert (but leave me envious of others).
