I'm not sure if my results surprise me or not. I think my feelings cover both ends. I received Type ENFJ. As I began to read my description, I found myself agreeing with my type. I love to draw people towards me so I am able to help them with their burdens, mentally, physically, and emotionally. I have always enjoyed being able to juggle multiple responsibilities at one time. My work zone will go back and forth between organized and cluttered, but either way a conclusion to the problem is reached. I am, in a sense, vulnerable because of my wanting to hold other's burdens.
I disagreed with the fact that I am a good communicator. I am easily flustered, and do not enjoy having attention on myself. With this in mind, it can be a challenge to share ideas and thoughts with other people. While I love to help others, sometimes it is because I feel my way is the best way. I like knowing the task is in my control and it is up to me to perform it well. This can be a good thing, but I know at times I need to step back and let others hold the reins. Although I struggle with communicating, I find it easy to have a simple conversation with someone I don't know, or just met.
Reading and reflecting on my result shows me that I can be a good student, if I apply myself to my work. I have the motivation to do well, but without that motivation I would do poorly. In order to succeed in writing, I need to focus my attention on reaching my goals. I will encourage others to do their best, but I will make sure I am still working on my own skills.
Overall, this test assured me of characteristics I was already aware of. It was a good reminder that I have good qualities, but those same qualities can be a bad thing if I am not careful. I could get hurt or easily sidetracked from my own goals.
Good reflection. Defining each term for your audience as you are reflecting upon the term will allow your audience to better understand you. ~Ms. A.
