Know Thyself

The Myers-Briggs personality test puts me at INTP...but barely a T, so when I feel like it I can cross over into INFP territory. Those letters mean nothing to me, but the last time I took the test, the site assigned words to me like architect, philosopher, searcher and seeker. If you preface each of those with 'amateur,' I think they're a pretty good fit.

Yesterday, Katie pointed me to a personality assessment I hadn't seen before. It's called the Johari Window. You pick 5 or 6 words out of a grid of 55 that you feel most accurately describe you. Then you have friends and family pick 5 or 6 and the tool gives you a neat little map of what you think of yourself compared to what others think. Here's a link where you can fill out my window if you're so inclined then make one of your very own.
