Types of Personality

What type of personality are you? Why is it important that you know your personality type? Can you switch between personalities? All these questions that we want to find out as we navigate through life. Life is exciting and full of surprises. But when it comes to our personalities, we tend to just ignore it, and say, it is who I am, whether you accept me or not. But do you know your personality? Let’s find out.

Types of personality:

1. Introvert- is someone who limits social interactions, is selective and prefers a calm environment. They choose their words carefully.  One track mind, but volume of information. The bad thing is, they often have bad first impressions, then follow it with bad communication, verbal skills as to no networking skill.
2. Extrovert- is someone that’s outgoing and thrives in social situations.  Easier to get along and very expressive. Unreserved person who enjoys and seeks out social interaction.
3. Type A or Director – in charge and in control of their environment and their lives.  But not detail oriented. Goal oriented and practical in their solutions. And arriving at their solutions and goals will entail a no-nonsense, bottom-line approach. They are often stubborn, workaholics, impatient, easily angered, insensitive, ill-tempered (short fuse), intolerant. They hate day to day patterns and routines.  
4. Type B or socializers.  They are extroverted, outgoing, energetic, and fast-paced individuals who like to be around people and enjoy being the center of attention. They are fun-loving, enthusiastic, friendly and motivators. They try to do more than they can handle. Sometimes unrealistic and not attached to reality. They tend to procrastinate and have short attention spans.
5. Type C or thinker. They simply say what they think. A detailed oriented individual. Interested in  accuracy, quality control, rationality, and logic. Their weakness is antisocial, worrying about the program they set. Doing their own thing, very skeptical and hard to believe until they prove it themselves. They are afraid of losing control.
6. Type D or Supporter – they take their time at their own pace slower toward their work and life in general. They like job security and are very happy doing a repetitive task, anytime of the day.  They don’t like rules or sudden changes of plan.  But they are compassionate, caring and calm.  You can trust and depend on them.  Very observant and self-confident.
7. Ambivert – a  combination of introvert and extrovert. A person having characteristics of both extrovert and introvert. In other words, they fall somewhere in the middle of the spectrum

You can pick and choose which type you are. Regardless of what type, you can set your own personality, as this is just to identify the basics on where you can grow from. And if you are in between those types mentioned, don’t worry as God made us all unique in our ways.  We just want to identify where and what areas of life to grow from.
