TO THOSE WHO DON'T WANT THEIR WORK PROMOTED

Hey guys and gals! We FIND and PROMOTE people's work, we never take credit for things we haven't written, we just love sharing the things that are interesting, but if you don't want your work or pictures shown, please let me know and I'll take it off, we're not trying to harm any one here or infringe on anyone's copyrights, just late night entertainment for my friends and I after a long days of work.

We're not making money off the site, nor are we publishing anything to other places through feedburner claiming that it's our work, just a hobby of finding cool things around the internet, that's all. Sometimes we copy and paste too quickly and a link giving you credit doesn't appear, if that's the case and you DO want your work promoted, we will add in the backlink, we would love to give credit where credit is due!

Please contact me or drop a comment on any posts you guys don't want up and I'll take it off within 24 hours, thanks!

Myers-Brigg Intro

Myers-Briggs Introduction

by Cory Caplinger

 

The Myers-Briggs system measures people in four areas...subdivided by two functions

  • How a person relates to others (either by Extraversion or Introversion)
  • How a person takes in information (either by Sensing or iNtuition)
  • How a person makes decisions (either by Thinking or Feeling)
  • How a person orders their life (either by Judging or Perceiving)
Relating to Others Information Taking Decision Making Life Order
Extraversion (E) Sensing (S) Thinking (T) Judging (J)
Introversion (I) iNtuition (N) Feeling (F) Perceiving (P)

Extraversion? Perceiving? What do these words mean? Read the following lists and compare each function to each other.

Are you an Extravert or an Introvert? Examine your day, your past week, your life. Does it feel more like "you" when you are interacting, communicating, experiencing (Extravert)? Or are you more of yourself when alone thinking, reflecting, doing a hobby, etc (Introvert)?
