✒️ What were the main things you learned about yourself?

I learned that I value originality and creativity, which is good, but that often comes at the cost of not always being able to do things in an organized manner, which needs work, because I'm always looking forward to the next big thing, which is good, thus overlooking the importance of the small, every day, boring things, which needs work.

✒️ What are your strengths as per the test and how can the strengths you identified on both tests help you in your personal life?

My strengths according to the Big Five test:

• Open-Mindedness (96 percentile)
• Extraversion (82 percentile)
• Agreeableness (72 percentile)

How they can help me in my personal life:

• The constant itch to be original and creative and have novel experiences can allow me to experiment with new ways to bring about positive changes in the world around me.

• The ability to easily absorb new perspectives can allow me to connect effortlessly with individuals from varying backgrounds and diverse stories.

• Being agreeable and generally considerate of others' feelings can allow me to be a better active listener, both on 7Cups and in my personal life.

My strengths according to the MBTI test:

ENFPs are known to be:

• Curious

• Energetic and Enthusiastic

• Excellent Communicators

• Friendly

How they can help me in my personal life:

• Being curious can help me be a great conversationalist, and in turn, a great listener (as long as I keep peoples' boundaries in mind).

• Enthusiasm, if channeled constructively and productively, can bring about a transformational change in my personal life, as I can sometimes struggle with a lack of motivation to do the boring yet important stuff (monthly finances, ugh)

• Being friendly and a decent communicator can allow me access to different perspectives, which will allow me to broaden my mind and my ability to think and perceive.
