I did an online Myers-Briggs test and there we have it:

Introverted 100%
Intuitive 62%
Thinking 75%
Judging 11%

% is strength of the preference

So, in an attempt to find out what my personality says about me (and possibly figure out what I need to be doing from here on in), I reviewed a few pages on the internet:

My favourite bits listed below (source: fuzzy.snakeden.org):

• With me be willing to back up your statements with facts - or at least some pretty sound reasoning.
• Don’t expect me to respect you or your viewpoints just because you say so. My respect must be earned.
• Be willing to concede when you are wrong. I respect the truth over being “right”. Withdraw your erroneous comment and admit your mistake and I will see you as a very reasonable person. Stick to erroneous comments and I will think you are an irrational idiot and treat everything you say as being questionable.
• Try not to be repetitive. It annoys me.
• Do not feed me a line of bull.
• Expect debate. I like to tear ideas apart and prove their worthiness. I will even argue a point I don’t actually support for the sake of argument.
• Do not mistake the strength of my conviction with the strength of my argument. I do not need to believe in a position to argue it or argue it well. Therefore, it will take more than fervor to sway me.
• Do not be surprised at my sarcasm.
• Remember that I believe in workable solutions. I am extremely open-minded to possibilities, but I will quickly discard any idea that is unfeasible.
• My open-mindedness means that they are willing to have a go at an idea by trying to pull it apart. This apparently horrifies people who expect oohs and ahhs and reverence. My ultimate insult to an idea is to ignore it, because that means it’s not even interesting enough to deconstruct. This also means that I will not just accept any viewpoint that is presented to them. The bottom line is “Does it work?” - end discussion.
• Do not expect me to actually care about how you view me. I already know that I am an arrogant bastard with a morbid sense of humor. Telling me the obvious accomplishes nothing.

More will follow shortly…

Oh! and if anyone knows anything about Da Vinci Types, I’m all ears!
