you can do enneagram as well, if you want to.
1) What aspect of your personality made you unsure of your type?
The fact that the function orders I get front tests aren't lined up as the should be.
To explain it better: the latest cognitive functions test I did game me these three results (from most to least likely): ENTJ, ESTP, INTJ; but my functions order was this: Te- Se- Ne=Ni- Ti- Fi- Si- Fe. It's just really random (for example, shouldn't Ni be higher than Se in an ENTJ?).
2) What do you yearn for in life? Why?
Serenity (as I don't truly believe in long-lasting happiness). Being able to reach all the important goals I set for myself. Being able to do what I like (and gain money from it at the same time, if possible). And why not, lately I've also been wanting to get married and have kids.
Because I want my independence to be free of anyone's influence. I want to decide for myself, but at the same time I don't want to be alone, and having people close to me would be great, without having to depend on them though.
3) Think about a time where you felt like you were at your finest. Tell us what made you feel that way.
This can happen in different situations. When I have achieved something that is important to me, or when I have finished a piece of art or of writing that I am satisfied with, or when I have solved a difficult problem, or even just when I am having fun with my friends.
4) What makes you feel inferior?
Not many things, to be honest. Maybe just social skills? I am not very good at picking cues/understanding people and often someone points out things about people that everyone else had noticed but that I hadn't. That can make me feel lost at times.
5) What tends to weigh on your decisions? (Do you think about people, pro-cons, how you feel about it, etc.)
I try to consider what will get me to the desired result in the shortest time possible. I also rely a lot on my gut instincts, as I have learned to listen to them, they're usually right.
6) When working on a project what is normally your emphasis? Do you like to have control of the outcome?
Again, I try to get there in the shortest time possible. I do like to have control.
In group projects I like being in charge, but I don't necessarily seek leadership: if there is already a leader and they are good enough, it is fine by me. But if there is indecisiveness or conflict between the members that is slowing down the work, I will quickly make decisions and try to fix things.
7) Describe a time where you had a lot of fun. How is your memory of it?
All my funniest memories are either about hanging out with friends or going for explorations in the nature (either alone or with other people). I love going for hikes or just walking in the woods or being around animals.
8) When you want to learn something new, what feels more natural for you?
Speaking about topics? Natural sciences, foreign languages, new sport or drawing techniques.
Speaking about learning styles? I learn better by doing things myself or by seeing them. Also associating notions with a certain song helps me memorize them better.
9) How organized do you think of yourself as?
My physical space is not very well-organized, not by the standard definition, at least. I have my own personal order, which might look just like a mess to other people, but it works well for me, as I can always find everything.
My mental order is ok. I always have a lot of ideas going on through my mind, but I try to "classify" them, to prioritize the most important ones and discard the others. For example, I am thinking up a story and I am keeping a list of all the characters with all the information about them and their designs.
10) How do you judge new ideas? You try to understand the principles behind it to see if they make sense or do you look for information that supports it?
First of all, they have to have a concrete, practical application. I tend to discard fancy and impractical ideas, or ideas that wouldn't benefit anyone. Theory is important just up to a certain point, after which it starts to get impossible to make ideas into realities.
11) You find harmony by making sure everyone is doing fine and belonging to a given group or by making sure that you follow what you believe and being yourself?
The latter, definitely.
12) Are you the kind that thinks before speaking or do you speak before thinking? Do you prefer one-on-one communication or group discussions?
Sometimes I speak before thinking, other times I think before speaking.
I have no real preference.
13) Do you jump into action right away or do you like to know where are you jumping before leaping? Does action speaks more than words?
If the situation is unexpected, I usually jump into it without thinking too much; if I have some time I'd like to know what I am getting into, though.
Actions definitely matter more than words. Words alone mean nothing to me.
14) It's Saturday. You're at home, and your favorite show is about to start. Your friends call you for a night out. What will you do?
If there is an easy way for me to get there, sure. I can always watch the show online tomorrow.
15) How do you act when you're stressed out?
I try to bottle it up as long as possible and I'll become more and more withdrawn because of it; when I reach my breaking point I have a terrible outburst, either a rage or crying fit.
16) What makes you dislike the personalities of some people?
Close-mindedness. Bigoted people. People who cannot face the truth. Overly clingy people. People who talk about something as if they were experts when they don't even know what they're talking about. People who never admit they're wrong. People who try to boss me around. People who get everything as a personal offense. People who just can't be objective. People who want to hurt those who have done nothing to them. People who try to force their beliefs on others. People who are either overly serious or who can't be serious at all.
17) Is there anything you really like talking about with other people?
My interests. I really enjoy having a good talk with someone who knows as much as I do or more about certain topics.
18) What kind of things do you pay the least attention to in your life?
Studying. I manage to get by in school and get good grades easily, but I don't really study much.
I've been also told I don't pay much attention to people.
I also don't understand people who take things like TV shows or anime seriously (like those who "defend" a fictional character no matter what). Really, it's just fiction. What's the big deal? I enjoy those things, but I'm not serious about them. It's just a way to have fun, and the fact that some people turn it into what seems a war just looks really stupid to me.
I also don't care about gossip (both about celebrities or common people).
19) How do your friends perceive you? What is wrong about their perception? ? What would your friends never say about your personality ?
They perceive me as funny, loyal, spontaneous, genuine strong and decisive, but also as really aggressive and violent. And they're wrong on the last two. I am not so aggressive, I am violent just when provoked.
They would never say I am emotional or fake.
20) You got a whole day to do whatever you like. What kind of activities do you feel like doing?
I'd draw, read, surf the web, do some exercice, maybe write something. If possible I'd like to go into the nature for a while, or visit some place with historic or mythological importance.
