Introvert vs. Extrovert
 

What are you? Thinking about the "Jockeys" thread and that most of us would rather have our head in a form than table games got me thinking. It would seem, although obviously I could be wrong, that most horse players are introverts. I would discribe most of my horse playing friends that way.

So what are you? Introvert or Extrovert?

Being introvert does not mean that you can't be loud and even the life of the party. It means rather you get your inner strength by being by yourself rather than feeding on people for it.

If you're not sure, take this test that is one of the best personality profile tests available. It will also tell you much more about yourself. It is based on the Myers Briggs which is a well known standard. I took it years ago and this test gave the same exact results. I am a INTJ which means I am an introvert.

I have an inny.....oh wait....that's not what we're talking about are we?

ESFJ

Shocking, I know:rolleyes:

INTJ

INTJ/ 78,25,62,33

While only 8% of the total population may be INTJ, I think it is no co-incidence that many here are. I think the internet gives more introverted people an easier way to "socialize".

INTJ..........and Im very reserved about doing the marriage test.

ISFJ, but I was half asleep(and it was hell getting through all those questions..thanks so much for sharing:rolleyes: )


very expressed introvert, slightly expressed sensing personality, moderately expressed feeling personality, slightly expressed judging personality

ESTJ

I don't have to take a test to know I am an introvert. I am by nature a solitary person most of the time and have been married to a similar scholar for 25 years. If I met any of you in person I would be too intimidated to speak up.

no surprise here

Based on the brief descriptions it appears somewhat accurate.

I have found this most interesting as you will see below INTJ's represent only 1% of the population, not 8% as I said before, YET, of the 31 people who posted their results 14 are INTJ's (45%). I find it facinating that we are drawn to this sport and wonder if anyone has every looked at it. The next highest was ISFJ with 5 people (16%)

INTJs are the most self-confident of all types, having "self-power" awareness. Found in about 1 percent of the general population, the INTJs live in an introspective reality, focusing on possibilities, using thinking in the form of empirical logic, and preferring that events and people serve some positive use. Decisions come naturally to INTJs' once a decision is made, INTJs are at rest. INTJs look to the future rather than the past, and a word which captures the essence of INTJs is builder-a builder of systems and the applier of theoretical models.
