My dominant type is the Thinker(type 5) followed by the Motivator(type 3). For the other 7 personality type, I either score a big fat zero or I go beyond negative. Obviously those with -ve scores are the personality type which is definitely not me. Sometimes I'm quite amazed how the people who created such tests are able to analyze people just by their answers. I guess this is something to do with understanding psychology. So interesting. Esp since I'm a type 5, coz the type description for it is "I need to understand the world". Lol. Its quite true. Sometimes my need to have logical explaination and steps for everything drives people crazy! Things where people just know by you know feeling, I will be asking why. Why this why that and all I get from people is that "Ai ya.. you will know want la". Then I'll continue to be spouting ??? from my head. Hahah..
Ok...here's some parts of the analysis to help you understand me better. =)
Type 5 - Thinker (The Observer)
Observers have a need for knowledge and are introverted, curious, analytical, and insightful.
How to Get Along with Me
Be independent, not clingy.
Speak in a straightforward and brief manner.
I need time alone to process my feelings and thoughts.
Remember that If I seem aloof, distant, or arrogant, it may be that I am feeling uncomfortable.
Make me feel welcome, but not too intensely, or I might doubt your sincerity.
If I become irritated when I have to repeat things, it may be because it was such an effort to get my thoughts out in the first place. (Rmb I mentioned before that I hate to repeat myself)
Help me to avoid my pet peeves: big parties, other people's loud music, overdone emotions, and intrusions on my privacy. (yaya...now you know why I can't stand clubbing. And yes, don't intrude my privacy. Meaning what I want you to know you will know, otherwise don't probe.)
What's Hard About Being a Five
being slow to put my knowledge and insights out in the world
being pressured to be with people when I don't want to be (sometimes for no apparent reason, I just do not wish to speak to anyone or even be with anyone. Serious, no apparent reason, just felt like being alone)
watching others with better social skills, but less intelligence or technical skill, do better professionally (yes..I can't stand those who only know how to talk)
Fives as Children Often
spend a lot of time alone reading, making collections, and so on (I used to read the entire babysitter club collection, nancy drew collection, enid blytons and god knows what else and also to collect stamps, stickers and foreign coins)
have a few special friends rather than many
assume a poker face in order not to look afraid (actually I didn't put on a "unfriendly" face on purpose, it just so happen I HAVE that face when I'm actually just expressionless)
are sensitive; avoid interpersonal conflict
feel intruded upon and controlled and/or ignored and neglected
Type 3 - Motivator (The Achiever)
Achivers are energetic, optimistic, self-assured, and goal oriented.
How to Get Along with Me
Leave me alone when I am doing my work.
Give me honest, but not unduly critical or judgmental, feedback.
Help me keep my environment harmonious and peaceful.
Don't burden me with negative emotions.
Tell me you like being around me.
Tell me when you're proud of me or my accomplishments.
What's Hard About Being a Three
having to put up with inefficiency and incompetence
the fear on not being -- or of not being seen as -- successful
comparing myself to people who do things better
struggling to hang on to my success
putting on facades in order to impress people
always being "on." It's exhausting.
Threes as Children Often
work hard to receive appreciation for their accomplishments (yes, I used to work hard to accomplish things, not only studies, just to receive appreciation from teachers and my mum. I guess that is also why I'm active in sch clubs.)
are among the most
are active in school government and clubs or are quietly busy working on their own projects
