The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator has always been of great interest to me. I have taken it twice formally on paper, and a countless number of times on the internet. The first time I took it (on paper), I was 18 years old. I scored an ESFJ. The second time I took it (also on paper), I scored INTP. Since then, I have taken it many times and have always scored IN something. Most of the time I score INTP, INTJ, or INFP. It tends to depend on my mood that day. Today, however, I scored and INFJ. It just goes to show you that one can grow as an individual well into their late 20s. Or maybe it just shows that I haven't figured out everything about myself yet. Either way, it's a positive sign. I like having some aspects of my personality be in flux. I wonder if I will ever settle on a definitive personality type. I think my dominant personality type is INTP, I really do. But there are some aspects of my personality that come out that skew the T or the P part of myself, and I think that's a good thing, especially because those are the aspects that concern feelings and empathy for people. I keep growing in this aspect of my life and while I'll probably always be kind of a spaz, I'd like to think that someday I'll feel more comfortable in my interactions with others.
I just had a thought. I wonder if CafePress carries T-shirts proclaiming one's Myers Briggs type. Only a total geek would have that kind of thought. I'm off to check. Yes, yes they do. It proves that I am not the only one that's sort of insanely proud of my "label" -- even if it is highly variable and sort of fluctuating. This is my favorite design: http://shop.cafepress.com/design/5488584 -- particularly the "Inherent Need To Perfect."
Oh shoot, there are so many funny ones though: I Need Time Perhaps; Ineluctably Nearer To Procrastination; Interesting Novel Thoughts Proliferate; It's Never Too Precise; and Inventions Never Too Practical.
