ESTP



 " ESTPs are action-loving, "here and now" realists with excellent people skills. Informal, risk-taking, fast-paced and adaptable, they are not always in agreeance with rules and regulations. They are tactical problem solvers that desire quick results. ESTPs, who present a friendly and enthusiastic face, are straight shooters that are able to handle criticism." 

That was the definition the website gave of ESTP's. I took the test starting off rather unbiast. In the past I hadn't thought these to work, but seeing as how it has worked for some of my peers I decided to put my opinion from the past away and start this with a blank open mind. 

As I was taking the test, I noticed something, it was not going to come out a 100% accurate because well some of the answers were maybes, or depends on the situation, because it does! I think some of the questions were not yes or no answers they should have been more elaborate. At the end of the day  I don't treat every problem the same, there are certain problems that I do think with my "heart" with rather than thinking with my head, but in others vice versa. for example I had a question that said I base decisions based on feelings or facts? I don't know! IT REALLY DOES DEPEND ON THE SITUATION! So I did not like that part of the test, I understand that for logical reasons they can't make the test personal because they don't know you, but maybe add scenarios? I think that way its clearer how to answer and to understand really what you do or would do. so do I overall think the test is accurate no not at all, but it does have some down to the facts information.

I agree with the career choices because what I want to do is actually an option. I want  to become a cbsa agent ( Canadian border security association ) and agent was on there so I'm going to assume it has something to do with that or it's a similar line of work.  some of the other related jobs were the following:
·         Auditor
·         Computer Technician
·         Comedian
·         Detective
·         Entrepreneur

·         Firefighter
·         Military
·         Marketer
·         Network Specialist
·         Project Manager
·         Paramedic/EMT
·         Police
·         Sales Representative 

The one part I did not really understand was the similar characters and people one. I didn't see myself similar to some of the names that were written down.  some of the real humans were Eddie Murphy , Bruce Willis , Donald trump and Madonna. I don't think I have a similar personality to any of these really. maybe I do, I just can't see it? and for the fictional ones it was Bart Simpson, krusty the klown and James bond. other than maybe the funny of Bart Simpson, the out going-ness of Madonna and the " I don't care" of Donald trump I don't see myself at all similar to these people/characters. 

As for the percents I got 58%  extraverted (E) and 42%  introverted (I) which means I am social have lots of friends but enjoy my time alone so I think it's the perfect  combination  60%  social and 40% alone. for the second one I got  63% sensing (S) and 37% intuition (I).  Which means I am very in the moment, realistic, knows what needs to get done, and is practical. I honestly think that way its more afferent. thirdly I got 68% thinking (T) and 32%  feeling (F).  This is my stricter side, because the thinking category is more for stricter people, someone who is thick skinned, rational. rather than easily hurt, gentle and driven by emotion. I prefer it that way to be honest, I'm not going to let feelings get in my way. finally I got also 68% perceiving (P) and 32% judging ( J). This means I am adaptable, can take it easy, a little messy and not totally a perfectionist. I totally agree with this in this aspect I'm very relaxed and adaptable I'm good with change!
