Sixteen Personalities

To anyone unfamiliar with Myers-Briggs personality types: buckle up, you’re in for a treat. A website called 16personalities.com has developed a personality type assessment that uses decades worth of research to provide people with a way to understand human personalities on a deep level. After taking their personality assessment, your result will be one of 16 possible combinations of letters (such as ESTJ, ISFJ, or ENFP) in which each letter indicates degrees of a trait that offers insight into how you process information, interact with the world, and more.

It really is a remarkable way of coming to understand the people around you and gain insight into why they behave the way they do, and how you can get along and communicate with them more effectively. Not only is it a great tool to help you understand others, but it’s a great tool to help you understand yourself and why you think and behave the way you do. The test itself only takes about ten minutes, but figuring out your personality type and what it means can change your life. Take the test here.
