MBTI: How To Find My Type

Extraverted or Introverted (E/I)

 Extraverts:

  • Find pleasure experiencing the outer world
  • Comfortable around (many) people
  • Hard to get tired, even after long periods of high energy or social interaction
  • They easily move into action and try to make things happen
  • Quick thinkers and maybe think out loud


 Introverts:

  • Enjoy spending time inside their heads
  • Comfortable when alone, or around people they know
  • Easily get tired after a specific time of socialization
  • Prefer just thinking or talking about things and have a hard time ''doing''
  • Need time to think or to form an answer, and listen before they talk

 Sensing or iNtuition (S/N)

 Sensors:

  • Trust the five senses. What they see/hear/smell/taste/touch
  • Experience speaks louder than words. They learn by hands-on work
  • Usually care about ''what is'' or ''was''
  • Easily rememer details, facts, events etc. (that are important to them)
  • See the practical use of things and are pragmatists. They stick to the things they know


 Intutives:

  • Trust the sixth sense and their imagination
  • Work with words and symbols instead of experiece. They learn through theories and ideas
  • Seem to care about ''what could/might be'' or ''what will be'' etc
  • Notice changes and mostly remember the meaning of things or the impression they left to them and not the actual fact
  • Excited by ideas, possibilities, abstraction, future, new things and see the big picture
Thinking or Feeling  (T/F)

Thinkers:
  • Analyse pros and cons and make rational decisions
  • Fair and won't let personal or others' opinions to influence them
  • Easily notice flaws and incosistencies 
  • Seek logical explanations and offer solutions when someone has a problem
  • Mainly tell the bare truth because they think honesty is better than tact


 Feelers:

  • Analyse people's feelings and take into acount what others want when making decisions
  • Subjective and usually take things personally
  • Notice the good side of people and things
  • Seek personal explanations and give emotional support to others when in a problem
  • Prefer to be kind, diplomatic and tell white lies in order to maintain harmony without hurting others' feelings
Judging or Percieving (J/P)

Judgers:
  • Like making decisions (or giving orders)
  • Need restrictions, rules and deadlines when working
  • Prefer to have everything under control and want to have things settled
  • May make dogmatic decisions because they hardly ever accept new information
  • Work in a methodical, serious and organised way

Percievers:
  • Have a hard time making decisions (or giving orders)
  • Need freedom and flexibility when working, cause instructions don't let them express themselves
  • Prefer having open options
  • They are open to new information and change their decisions easily
  • Work in a playful and spontaneous way

Now you should have a four-letter word like INTP, ESTJ, ENFP, ISFJ etc. This is probably your personality type.

MBTI and intelligence

Many people claim that some types are kind of smarter than others. Well...  I tell you that this is not true. All types are clever and witty in different things and situations. To begin with... I/E Introverts are smart because everything they do, they do it after personal thinking and self reflection. They spend a lot of time wandering and thinking by themselves very deep. Extraverts are smart since they tend to communicate with a lot of people. They share interests with others and they want to learn as much as they can from the external world. N/S Intuitives are idealists and see the meaning behind everything. They do not limit their knowledge on the five senses. They have a vivid imagination and they see the big picture. They are spirit-people. We could say that most of nowadays inventions and beliefs, were created MAINLY (not wholly) by Intuitives (so the Sensors would not have something to work on if the Intuitives wouldn't invent things). Sensors are practical...

Cogntive Functions

These websites will help a lot: How To Recognize Cognitive Functions In Real Life Cognitive Functions Analyzed Information about Cognitive Functions What are the Cognitive Functions? Cognitive Functions (CF) are the ways an individual can process information and make decisions based on their Myers-Briggs type. Each type has all eight cognitive functions but what changes, is the order they utilise them. There are 16 possible ways that functions can be ''placed''. From all eight CF, there are four of them that affect us the most. Like the basic ones. The rest, are called Shadow Functions and I will not analyse them since I don't know many things about them.  Understanding which functions you use and their order, is actually the most accurate way to type yourself or others. The functions necessitate the four-letter type, not the other way around. This is why the best way to determine your type is to either visit a practitioner who types using cognitive func...
