Introduction

In recent times, researchers affirmed that fundamental personality elements such as extroverted sensing, thoughtful, and judging integrate to form the ESTJ personality type. ESTJ signify traditional and orderly people. Individuals under this personality type, make use of issues they deem right, wrong, or publicly acceptable to bring about unity among human populace. More so, they embrace morality, commitment, and self-respect. This paper will discuss results from the Meyer Briggs personality quiz. The results from the quiz unveiled an ESTJ personality trait.

Results from the personality assessment

Extroversion

 Extroversion stood at 52% measured against introversion traits. Normally, extroversion is associated with socialization, chatty, self-confident, and excited stands at 52% signifying that the person is not fully an extrovert but able to bring out traits of extroversion partially. Nevertheless, extroversion dominates introversion; hence, one will rely on objective evidence and rationale in making decisions rather than baseless feelings (Reardon, 2011). With a 52 extroversion, I am a practical person and convert every task into an actionable activity. In addition, I enjoy acquiring new concepts and apply them to my immediate surroundings.

 Sensing

This aspect has a rate of 36 in comparison to intuition. This result implies that I am good at retaining and retrieving memories and narrating each nitty gritty details. Hence my past memories are quite clearly even after time elapses. More so, sensing means that I make good use of past encounters to predict the present occasions.

Because the sensing ability is inward, I do not care about novelty but show preference for things I am familiar with (Reardon, 2011). Furthermore, the results signify that I enjoy daily routines and predicable behaviors. On the other hand, the downside of enjoying predictable behavior is the ability to become stubborn and dictatorial at times.

 Thinking

Thinking measured against feeling was 58. This aspect of ESTJ personality means that an individual can take control of his or her surrounding and create sustainable solutions to challenges based on various thinking capacity. To emphasize further, thinking capacity gives me the ability to isolate the best answer to every problem (Fretwell et.al, 2013). Therefore, the element of thinking gives the entire personality high reasoning abilities to achieve objectives and take leadership positions. The practice of effectively achieving goals by rational thinking means makes is the underlying factor that makes this personality type practical.

Judging

Judging against perceiving is 48 hence judging is dominant over perceptions. Moreover, perceptions are only points of view but judgements emerge after one evaluates facts and information (Fretwell et.al, 2013). This element materializes as a person with ESTJ matures. Furthermore, it comes after cultivation it for years before it becomes fully functional and ready for utilization and application.

 Judgement of principles and values help people under this personality group attain certain objectives (Fretwell et.al, 2013). However judgmental has its own share of trials and tribulation and ESTJ people rarely accommodate other people’s opinion. As stated earlier, ESTJ are traditional and orderly, sticking to their guns at all times, with strong judgmental convictions when it comes to their principles even though other people may hold different opinions.

 In summary, ESTJ personality centers external, where one handles issues logically and internal mode, which revolves around the five senses. An ESTJ person’s world uses facts and solid foundations to pass judgements and offer solutions while scavenging to effectively control their surroundings. As per the results, an ESTJ personality is rigid and practical with his or her traits.
