The R[evol]lution's Myers-Briggs Personalility Type

[MrsW]

I'm INTJ and hubby is ENFP.

 

[unklejman]

INTP
Seek to develop logical explanations for everything that interests them. Theoretical and abstract, interested more in ideas than in social interaction. Quiet, contained, flexible, and adaptable. Have unusual ability to focus in depth to solve problems in their area of interest. Skeptical, sometimes critical, always analytical.

Ha! Does this fit all of us INTJ type people?

The Portait of the Mastermind (INTJ)

Of the four aspects of strategic analysis and definition, it is the contingency planning or entailment organizing role that reaches the highest development in Masterminds. Entailing or contingency planning is not an informative activity, rather it is a directive one in which the planner tells others what to do and in what order to do it. As the organizing capabilities the Masterminds increase so does their inclination to take charge of whatever is going on.

It is in their abilities that Masterminds differ from the other Rationals, while in most of their attitudes they are just like the others. However there is one attitude that sets them apart from other Rationals: they tend to be much more self-confident than the rest, having, for obscure reasons, developed a very strong will. They are rather rare, comprising no more than, say, one percent of the population. Being very judicious, decisions come naturally to them; indeed, they can hardly rest until they have things settled, decided, and set. They are the people who are able to formulate coherent and comprehensive contingency plans, hence contingency organizers or "entailers."

Masterminds will adopt ideas only if they are useful, which is to say if they work efficiently toward accomplishing the Mastermind's well-defined goals. Natural leaders, Masterminds are not at all eager to take command of projects or groups, preferring to stay in the background until others demonstrate their inability to lead. Once in charge, however, Masterminds are the supreme pragmatists, seeing reality as a crucible for refining their strategies for goal-directed action. In a sense, Masterminds approach reality as they would a giant chess board, always seeking strategies that have a high payoff, and always devising contingency plans in case of error or adversity. To the Mastermind, organizational structure and operational procedures are never arbitrary, never set in concrete, but are quite malleable and can be changed, improved, streamlined. In their drive for efficient action, Masterminds are the most open-minded of all the types. No idea is too far-fetched to be entertained-if it is useful. Masterminds are natural brainstormers, always open to new concepts and, in fact, aggressively seeking them. They are also alert to the consequences of applying new ideas or positions. Theories which cannot be made to work are quickly discarded by the Masterminds. On the other hand, Masterminds can be quite ruthless in implementing effective ideas, seldom counting personal cost in terms of time and energy.

Dwight D. Eisenhower, General Ulysses S. Grant, Frideriche Nietsche, Niels Bohr, Peter the Great, Stephen Hawking, John Maynard Keynes, Lise Meitner", Ayn Rand and Sir Isaac Newton are examples of Rational Masterminds.

I just read that. It's almost word for word me. Especially this part.

[CelestialRender]

ENTP, or possibly INTP.

Looks like there's almost no xSxx's here.

INTJ
78 38 38 33
INTJs are only supposed to be about 5% of the population. Perhaps the test is skewed. ( or maybe Ron Paul supporters are. )

 

[Hayek]

Intj / Entj

51% I
96% N
94% T
95% J

Because Sensers make decisions based on Data, and not "Hunches". When all of the "data" put out there is WRONG, then it is no wonder that they are led astray.

The majority of people are S though. That is what is so strange about that being the common link here.

 

[cilution]

INTP, very close to INTJ. I'm basically a cross between Einstein/Newton and Caesar/Hannibal. Yeah, that's not scary at all.

 

[UziSprayTF]

Ayn Rand was a INTJ, though I have read somewhere that her 'ideal type' would be ENTJ with INTJ in a close second. Wish I could find the source.

Not to put down anyone here that isn't covered by this, but I think the main problem with Amer... no, the World is that there are not enough NTs.

One of the reasons I think the founding fathers stated that only male landowners could vote was to increase the number of NTs in the voting pool, or at the very least cut back on all the SFs.

NTs.

I think that you are wrong.
More women are N than men. Men are much more likely to rationalize away their intuition with apparent "facts". However, most men, and most people in general are S.

Enfj

I took one of these tests several years ago and was told I was different than most, in fact the only one at their company.

I see I am on of two on here.

 

[golf247]

INTJ here. It fits, too.

 

[DirtMcGirt]

damn i'm the only isfj here... interesting poll!!!

 

[Truth Warrior]

Any guesses about what type Ron Paul is?

 

[trout007]

INTJ Here too.

 

[paulgirl]

Any guesses about what type Ron Paul is?

ENFP
Warmly enthusiastic and imaginative. See life as full of possibilities. Make connections between events and information very quickly, and confidently proceed based on the patterns they see. Want a lot of affirmation from others, and readily give appreciation and support. Spontaneous and flexible, often rely on their ability to improvise and their verbal fluency.

I don't know the man personally, though, and anyone can put up a good show in public.

A quick web search claims that Ron is a ............................ ( wait for it ) ............................. INTJ.
