Looking at the Humanistic theory gets me really interested. Taking a survey on how we perceive our personality is a way to evaluate ourselves personally. From extroversion, orderliness, emotional stability, accommodation and inquisitiveness are all important factors in knowing how to balance them out. Especially having to famine a profession as a counselor, helping others without knowing who you are can get a bit tangled. It’s almost like the saying “if you don’t know what you stand for, you…
JUNG and DISC assessments While taking the DISC and JUNG assessment I really thought about the type of person I was and what the possible outcomes would be. I thought about how I handle situations, how outgoing I am, and how I just react. While taking this test I was stumped when it came to some of the questions, such as what types of books I would read, how quickly I react to situations whether in my favor or not. Reading over my results I came to see that I was pleasantly surprised. I liked…
I had always found it difficult to accurately define who I am and what my purpose in life was. It was not until a friend of mine introduced me to the Myers-Briggs Personality Test that I had a clear understanding of my value to the world.

There are many characteristics that I found about the INFJ personality that I have and believe are particularly valuable to…
In this week’s journal, the discussion focuses on identifying a right versus right moral dilemma and a right versus wrong moral dilemma. In addition, the discussion addresses theories of moral reasoning (i.e. Kant’s rule-based morality). This discussion is well timed as I’ve recently identified the moral reasoning theory that resonates with me. In reading the articles assigned for this week, there are several examples provided for both types. These examples allowed me to consider my experiences…

Not only does the information give me a clear understanding as to why I make certain decisions, but it also explains why I live my life the way that I do. As a school leader, knowing and understanding my own personality type will assist me in becoming a well-rounded and effective leader. In addition,…
During the voyage of self-exploration, people ask question themselves “who I am and what I want.” Unfortunately, not everyone reaches his answers and recognizes “this is me and this is what I want.” Knowing yourself is challenging, yet, if people become aware of themselves, they can live fulfilling lives. Through Color, EQ test, political and gender bread Meyers-Briggs Personality Test and MBTI test, I started to analyze my personality. Using these four assessments, I identified my personality,…
What does it take to be a leader? There are many aspects to a leader. To explain what a leader is, I would like to tell you about an amazing person. I knew a woman, that was the most amazing leader ever. This lady by the name of Dawn was my boss here recently. This woman had charisma, passion, and firmness all wrapped in one. A true leader would work alongside their team mates to make sure the job was done to the best ability. A leader is someone who is not afraid to give an order and get their…

My confirmed profile is ENFP, ( Extraversion, iNtuition, Feeling, Perception); this means that in business and school I am driven to find…
