In order to swear by something like a Myers-Briggs Personality Type, I'm going to make a leap and say you have to know your type by heart. For instance, I'm INTJ, which is quite possibly the nerdiest of personality types. Don't know what those letters stand for? Don't even know what the Myers-Briggs Personality Type is all about? Grasshopper, you have much to learn!
Myers and Briggs were a mother-daughter duo who developed a test to classify personality types according to the psychological philosophies developed by Carl Jung. There are four basic parameters and a binary classification for each:
Introvert - Extrovert
iNtuitive - Sensing
Thinking - Feeling
Judging - Perceiving
The best way to proceed is really to just take the Myers-Briggs Personality Test. This is the do-it-yourself kind of test that can be taken over and over again online, opposed to the complete battery of questions that must be administered by a trained professional. One day, maybe I'll get to take the official Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) personality inventory.
