My Personality Type

     My personality type is ISTP based on the Meyer Briggs personality test. ISTP's think logically and are realistic. They are really good at troubleshooting and look for the practical solution. they can work independant and are very resourceful. Other people with my personality type are Steve Jobs the founder of Apple and millionaire before he died in 2011. Another person with the same personality type as me is Jack Dorsey who is the founder and CEO of both Twitter and square a mobile payments company.


     I think the ISTP personality type describes me very well. I am very interested in the mechanics of how things work, very attentive to detail, I love solving problems and I like to explore the world around me. This helps me understand why I am the way I am and why i do certain things.

     When put on a team project I always seem to be the one to imagine and come up with the design. I also tend to be the problem solver and always come up with a solution to what stands in our way. Whenever I am given a role that matches my personality I always     take interest and shine in that role. When given a role that doesn't match my personality I usually don't take interest in it and I don't really do it as good. People sometimes mistake me as pushy or controlling because of they way I try to take the lead in group projects.This may explain why I sometimes get mad at my brother for acting like a know it all, it may just be because I don't understand his personality type. 

     I took another personality test that compared your personality to animals a Lion, Otter, Golden Retriever or a Beaver. my top animal was a Lion and my second highest was a Beaver. Lions strengths are that they are goal orientated, strong and direct. Beaver's strength's are that they have high standards, order, and respect. I think these describe me very well but some things don't i think i am a blend between the two.
