INTRODUCTION
Dealing with different types of people is difficult. It gets easier if you understands your own strengths and weaknesses. This prevents others from being able to “push your buttons” without you realizing what they are doing.
For decades, the Myers-Briggs personalty type indicator has been the gold standard to understanding oneself and others. The test to determine ones Myers-Briggs personalty type has been expensive and unweildly, requiring a professionally trained therapist to administer. However, using years and years of collected data, a two-minute version of the test had been created that predicts one’s Myers-Briggs personalty type with a 90% accuracy rate.
Without further ado, here is the test. Scoring instructions follow the test, so be careful not to look below the questions until you have finished the test.

SCORING THE TEST
Question 1.
