My Five Strengths From The Gallup Test
My five strengths from the Gallup test are relator, positivity, empathy, ideation, and futuristic. Going into this test I was honestly very skeptical. When I received my results though, I was more than impressed. For the most part everything was spot on. So much that it was a little scary. Obviously humans are very complicated creatures, and a computer test can't completely encapsulate someone's personality, but whoever made this test did their research.
One of the things I noticed the most in my test report was my personality tends to lean towards positive and optimistic way of life. This I could not agree with more. I do not tend to get stressed very easily in life. I am very go with the flow, and don't worry kind of person. Always looking for the upside in situations. Another common trait I observed, and agreed with, is that I am a people person. I find it easy to relate to people's situations and how they feel. Not only noticing if someone's down, but empathizing with them. Also that I enjoy making people happy and putting a smile on their face.

The test said I am a futuristic thinker, who has many big ideas. I found this interesting, but not untrue. I think I do tend to have really big ideas when it comes to something like a school project per say. I have a lot of grand ideas, but sometimes have trouble reining them into a solid plan. Ideation was another result I found to describe me well. Meaning, I like to think of ways to do things that are not traditional. Come up with new answers to problems even though they might not be conventional. I think that is where my love for music and film comes from. Music and film are formed by creativity and not step by step instructions. In a way there are no right answers, art is all about how one interprets it, and that is what I

    The Myers-Briggs personality type test is one of most used and respected psychological assessments. It contains 16 different personality types and is suppose to represent all the different types of personalities in the world. It is not uncommon for businesses, government jobs and other institutions to incorporate the test to see whether an individual would fit into the culture and atmosphere of the company. According to the test, I am a ESTJ (Extravert(31%), Sensing(1%), Thinking(28%), Judging(28%)), which matched some famous people such as John D. Rockefeller. I was surprised by how accurate the description of the suggested personality style matched my own.…

    The use of the Myers Briggs test really interested me in this module for the fact that I’ve had to take it before in school. It is a personality sense that is quick, small, and a pretty simple but effective way to get the basic traits of someone’s personality. When I took it I was ENFJ which means the test considers my personality and me to be Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging. The test has a couple of questions and only takes 10 minutes on average to take. In each letter, there are 2 options for example the 1st topic depends on if you are introverted or extraverted. An introvert tends to be quiet, shy, and not liking to be the center of attention a lot, while an extrovert tends to be the team leader, the happy go lucky friend, and enjoys their parties from time to time. Then it assess if you are intuitive or observant, if you are intuitive you are imaginative and quick at finding a solution, or you could be observant which means you down to earth and you rely on your senses. The 3rd letter assesses between a person being thinking and feeling based. A Thinking fellow would be tough and focuses on the mind while a person who the test said was more feeling would be more sensitive and follow your hearts. The final letter depends on if you are a judging or prospecting individual. A Judging personality is decisive and seeks closure while a prospective individual is good at improvising situations and they seek freedom. Based on my letters I am considered an extrovert, an imaginative person, very in tune with my emotions, and am decisive.…

    I must say that I do agree with the results of the test, but there are some aspects of it that I feel to be untrue. In general, I have to always stay busy and involved with various activities. I like being around people, leading, teaching and stimulating others into positive performances. I also like to act on things as opposed to just talking about it. Other people view me as having an outgoing personality. I also am able to relate to and have friends from all walks of life. On the other hand, I am one who does have to think things through, plan ahead, and am very structured (with things in order). I think that I am more a Sensing personality than a Intuitive one. I am more practical and a more hands on individual. Meaning, I often use and trust my experience before words and symbols. (Humanetrics.com, 1998-2011)…

    Over the course of 7 modules, different personality aspects of mine have been tested and evaluated and have even revealed things about myself that I was not aware of. The surveys and questions that I answered dug deep into decisions and choice I make, how I think and how I feel to reveal certain characteristics about myself, some of which I was aware of and others that I was not. Things such as my expression of sexuality, different levels and aspects of my psychology, my personal reactions to certain social situations, and the way I pursue and value my career were all evaluated by answering questionnaires. In the end a lot was revealed about the way I handle and look at things and even my overall personality.…
