yes totally. was thinking that as i was reading it. like the reason i'm a good photographer has always been because i connect easily with people. people warm up fast and we joke around and have fun. they always tell m they had so much fun. which i love to death.

also...when it comes to sales...i genuinely get super excited about the products i'm showing them and then they get excited. like...i'd be a shit sales person in most ways but when i mean it i'm pretty good.

also...i've just joined someones studio and i'm introducing all these new and different ideas and ways of doing things. like literally changing almost every aspect but she loves it and is super excited about it.

that's awesome. i totally know what you mean about either being great at sales or terrible depending on how you feel about whatever you're selling. glad you found something so fitting for a catalyst.

Got Secret Weapon.

Thought about if I might be a brainwashed citizen with a James Bond alter-ego triggered by a word...but dismissed it. I don't think it suits me at all.

Also made me think of this:

 

[TreeBob]

YOU CONSTANTLY SEEK WAYS TO EXPAND YOUR SPHERE OF KNOWLEDGE AND ELEVATE YOUR WORTH. THE MAESTRO IS FASCINATING TO OTHERS FOR THIS DRIVE.

You are motivated to earn the recognition of your peers (and avoid their criticism).
You are rational and private in your evaluation process.
You are autonomous in your leadership and problem-solving approach.
Employees, partners and colleagues value your personal dedication.
You set high goals. Over time, others learn that you will almost always hit your mark.

I sound like a douche

 

[Totenkindly]

I sound like a douche

Just because of association w/ Neidermeyer (Mark Metcalf) appearing on Seinfeld?

Actually the description sounds a lot like you, at least how you can seem publicly. And I didn't see anything negative in it.

Ive never really been that comfortable with what some descriptions sound like. Is it possible to be modest and have an ego?
haha

As long as you're actually as good as you think you are...sure

 

[Starry]

Thanks! You rock - as does the Catalyst. And that pic goes into the avatar library

btw...in the name of transparency, this a self-serving request - I scored equally high on The Intrigue and The Catalyst, but only got The Intrigue-report

I can totally see how it suits you though

To the bolded^^that's so weird because that was my first thought exactly...or that's what I wondered. But I also know you are one of the people that appreciates a little *less polish* in a person so there was a chance in my mind that you were merely advocating for the Catalyst as a way to facilitate understanding haha (yah, thinking outside of the box is one of the things we do.)

In this way I'll send you the pdf file (full description) I received with one of my fake internet names on it.

Looooot of secret weapons

I might have told you this before but your use of the ninja emoticon is always hilarious to me.

YOU ARE THE ROCKSTAR. YOUR INNOVATIVE AND DRAMATIC STYLE SETS YOU APART AND GENERATES EXCITEMENT WHEREVER YOU GO.
Your energy, experimental approach and quick wit generate a great deal of curiosity.
You resist the pull of inertia, instead changing direction or challenging the status quo at every opportunity.
You thrive on building new relationships and experiences.

PRIMARY PERSONALITY DESCRIPTORS:
Embraces opportunities for change and exploration
Driven by a profound sense of adventure and creativity
Captivates with spontaneity and a quick wit
Values innovation and cutting-edge thinking
Inspires brainstorming and inventive problem solving
You attract attention because you change the game.
WHO YOU ARE:
Innovative
Independent
Entrepreneurial
Edgy
Unpredictable
HOW YOU ADD VALUE:
You quickly solve problems with fresh solutions.
You're able to generate ideas that surprise people with a new perspective.
People watch to see what you'll do next, because you thwart tradition.

EXAMPLES OF LEADERS WHO USE REBELLION:
Richard Branson, Don Draper, David Letterman, Amelia Earhart, Jeff Bezos, Albert Einstein
HOW TO APPLY REBELLION AT WORK:
You are curious, unconventional, and seek new options. Want to channel these uncommon talents to reach your ultimate career potential? Once you tap into your natural REBELLION strengths, you can better persuade and captivate your co-workers, your boss, and your customers.

SECONDARY PERSONALITY DESCRIPTORS:
Creates strong and immediate emotional connections
Communicates expressively (such as colorful language and humor)
Attractive personal and professional style of interaction
Inspires people to become involved advocates
Attuned to the 5 senses: taste, touch, scent, sound, and sight
You quickly create warm emotional connections.
WHO YOU ARE:
Expressive
Intuitive
Social
Impulsive
Enthusiastic
HOW YOU ADD VALUE:
You captivate others with your vibrant and attractive style of communication.
Your approachable and transparent style makes you an "open book."
You intuitively understand ideas and feelings of others.
EXAMPLES OF LEADERS WHO USE PASSION:
Oprah Winfrey, Jack Welch, Tom Peters, U2's Bono, Leonardo Da Vinci, JK Rowling, Seth Godin
HOW TO APPLY PASSION AT WORK:
PASSION is one of the most immediately fascinating triggers. With PASSION as your secondary trigger, you capture widespread attention through colorful words, ideas, and actions. Now it's time to understand how to develop and apply that style of communication, so that you can more strategically persuade and inspire people throughout your job and career.

WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE A DORMANT TRUST TRIGGER:
You are innovative and visionary. You fascinate others by discovering new solutions, and thinking “outside the box.” People rely on you to help them uncover new perspectives. For you, repeating the same task over and over quickly becomes boring and pointless. For instance, you prefer to set your own schedule, rather than maintaining a set timeframe. This is different than TRUST personalities, who seek repetition and patterns.
HOW THIS AFFECTS YOUR PERSONALITY BRAND:
You have an entrepreneurial approach to your career. At work, you dislike falling into ruts, or performing the same duties every day. You appreciate variety and actively seek new ways to accomplish a problem. When co-workers or clients bring you challenges, they know you’ll help them find new opportunities.
You intuitively know how to persuade others through your self-expression and enthusiasm. You typically find it easy to brainstorm ideas.
You love to explore. As a result, people are attracted to your expressive and curious nature. You are unlikely to be seen as boring.
SHOULD YOU LEARN HOW TO ACTIVATE YOUR TRUST TRIGGER?
In certain situations, you will want to convey a clear ability to follow through. In these cases, borrow from the TRUST trigger to build stability. For example, do exactly what you promised. Remain consistent in your voice and attitude. Follow the schedule. Avoid surprises. (And don’t get too creative.)
There are many ways to become a trusted and valued partner. The TRUST trigger is one way, but there are other ways. If you do not naturally enjoy repeating the same process over and over, you will never reach your full potential in a job that forces you to follow a rigid path.

Didn't get The Catalyst though. Does this mean I'm SFP now?

YOU ARE THE INTRIGUE. YOUR WARM ATTRACTIVE NATURE CONTAINS YOUR VERY COMPLEX AND PRIVATE INTERIOR.

• Your multi-layered personality arouses curiosity and interest in others.
• You are keenly aware of the gravity in high-pressure situations, but are able to remain calm.
• Your “emotional intelligence” coupled with the rational side of MYSTIQUE produces an even balance between qualitative and quantitative.
• You rarely respond on impulse. Consequently others trust your responses as more rational and valuable.

HUH. I don't know what I was expecting, but I am not sure if it was this...

Watching the patterns in the posted results ... considering there's 49 possible outcomes, one would think they'd fit better. I've been tinkering with the test, tweaking little choices here and there. It's interesting because the "see myself as unique" question especially seems to trigger the rebellion setting big-time. There's too much riding on one or two small changes imo. My answers can go up or down a bit just based on mood.

Results:

I scored as the Trendsetter. Alternately, enhancing the more "emo" questions, the Rockstar. I identified with some portions of each, but not others.

My ESTJ husband had the best fit. He was the Guardian.



ESFP son had the most humorous result. We chuckled at the detail-oriented parts ... he was the Craftsman.
