I'm an "ESFJ" Personality Type

After taking a short Myers Briggs personality type indicator assemssment, the results listed that I was an ESFJ.

Extrovert-Sensing-Feeling-Judging

• Extroverts tend to be more outgoing, talktative, socialable, and assertive.
• Sensing types use an organized structure to acquire factual and preferably quantitative details.
• Feeling types consider how their choices affect how their choices affect others; weighing options against their personal values more than rational logic
• Judging types prefer order & structure in relationships with the outer world; enjoy control of decision making and want to resolve problems quickly.

Personalityportrait.com describes ESFJs as "The Caregiver". [see link for full description]

Myer's Briggs is designed to:

• identify the way people prefer to percieve environment
• obtain and process information
• measure how people orient themselves to outer world

For me, the Myers Briggs assessment has increased awareness about my character and behavior. As stated in previous blogs, I'm currently experiencing a high level of evolution in regards to my growth & development. One of the first steps is to understand yourself. If you ever have the opportunity to take the MBTI assessment please do so. I also encourage comment posts to share and discuss different personality types.
