This essay will explore particular results from the Meyers-Briggs personality test. Showing, how the exploitation of these findings can lead to personal growth. The MBTI sorts respondents into one of 16 categories based on four dichotomies: Extraversion (E) or Introversion (I); Sensing (S) or Intuition (N); Thinking (T) or Feeling (F); and Judgment (J) or Perception (P) (Mcray, 2015). The ISTJ outcome will be the basis of the Essay. The result of the test will be analyzed and used to enhance the positive traits while tempering the negative traits.

The ISJT being the introvert or I. A simple quote explains the social context in these terms, “Extroverts thrive in social interaction and react to the world around them while introverts prefer independence and need time for contemplation” (Barnett, 46). Introversion is no less desirable than Extroversion. Both have positives and negatives and in this essay, the ideas to enhance the positives of Introversion will be the focus. Introverts prefer time to reflect. Accordingly, they need time away from distractions. By setting aside time before and after daily activities, it will allow the introvert to recharge. Moreover, the time away needs to come during a busy day as well. The Introvert uses that time to focus on a task. On the other hand, if that time is not taken to unwind or prepare, the stimulation from the constant interaction can become overwhelming. Additionally, the excitement is draining. Therefore, by following the Guidelines For Enriching The Self (Wood, 62-68) the positives of Introversion are identified and in turn, can be enhanced.

Once again, these are well defined in the Introvert personality. Sensing is more a measure for the introvert. Moreover, this is used to study an object or event. Specifically, compare an object or event to the norm for evaluation. Next is the Thinking component. Also, once the assessment is complete, the real analysis of the situation or event can occur. With all of the facts gathered and with the proper amount of time set aside for scrutiny, a logical conclusion can be reached. Likewise, the verdict is backed up by the details and careful thought. Otherwise, the result would be chaos to the Introvert. Also, Reflected appraisal “…our perception of another’s view of us.” (Wood, 48) is enhanced when as the bedlam abates the outcome is seen as carefully conceived and well thought out. Moreover, knowing the reasons behind the need to so carefully analyze can lead to a more active use of these traits. Thus, to gain the knowledge to support personal growth (Wood, 62-64). Specifically, for the ISTJ, setting goals and having the plan to accomplish them will have the most
