Personal Narrative: My Jungian Typology

Improved Essays
My Jungian Typology is INTP – Introverted (91%) – Intuitive (34%) – Thinking (9%) – Perceiving (19%)
To summarize the INTP personality type keeps to him/herself as if living in their own little world. INTP’s are pensive and quiet by nature and hate being the center of attention.

According to the assessment, INTP’s would thrive in careers that require deep intellectual efforts and a creative approach.

Being an INTP, according to the analysis, I tend to look over details and miss important information as a result. But, in fact I don’t overlook details at all, I try to cover as many details as possible and because of that, I tend to over analysis details and make simple assignments difficult tasks. I also try to pay attention to as much detail as possible because I am terrified of failure, and if I failed…

However, after having delved into the MBTI inventory, I gained great insight as to what the personality preferences meant and how I can use them in my favor throughout my life. The biggest relief for me was learning that no one personality type is better than the other. It is all a matter of preferences and proclivities.
