Hi,

My name is Umar and I am from Pakistan. I believe that to be a good listener is very important when it comes to leadership qualities. The more you know about the people, the better you suggest them and they should be carefree talking about their concerns and problems. We often take leadership as an authoritative position but its not like this. It's a bond which you build gradually.

I feel myself privileged and lucky that people like talking to me. And I have hobbies and passion which helps me to think straight, and their is always things to talk about which describes me and my personality. So, it's very important to have things that defines and inspire you. I am an introvert and shy person. I know how hard it is for people to open their self. But doing things you like helps us defining our personality.

It's been three years that I am here as a listener and I don't know how far I will go. I feel good being a part of community where we are working together to promote love, care and positivity. This place is made with a lot of care, we all are trying to play our role when things are circumblating around various different concerns.

@MindReader798 What do you like most about being a listener here?

@GlenM

1. What is your personality type? Include your 4 letters, please.

Ans: The commander (ENTJ)

2. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

Ans: We focus on dealing with all things rationally and logically. We are naturally born leaders who command respect. Our dominant cognitive function is extraverted thinking which makes us deliberate about orders and judgments. The auxiliary function is introverted intuition which makes us trust our instincts during decision making.

3. What are your top 3 strengths or gifts according to this test? Please describe them.

Ans:

1. Self-Confident – Commanders couldn’t do this if they were plagued by self-doubt – they trust their abilities, make known their opinions, and believe in their capacities as leaders.

2. Charismatic and inspiring – These qualities combine to create individuals who are able to inspire and invigorate others, who people actually want to be their leaders, and this, in turn, helps Commanders to accomplish their often ambitious goals that could never be finished alone.

3. Efficient – Commanders see inefficiency not just as a problem in its own right, but as something that pulls time and energy away from all their future goals, an elaborate sabotage consisting of irrationality and laziness. People with the Commander personality type will root out such behavior wherever they go.

@Textingpals

All your strengths are really good !

@Textingpals

Wow! 😳😍😃 I can already feel the authority emanating from your forum post. Commander it is, such a strong captivating personality. Where will we be without you people, you rule the world... Literally 😊

@Textingpals

That's amazing strengths which means you're on a great head start to being a wonderful leader ^_^

1.What is your personality type? Include your 4 letters please.

My personality type is ENFP-T(Turbulent campaigner)

2. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

I learnt that I'm friendly ,outgoing and I'll ponder over relationships and other people's intentions which might lead to stress.

3. What are your top 3 strengths or gifts according to this test? Please describe them.

• Curious – I can find beauty and fascination in nearly anything. Imaginative and open-minded, I'm not afraid to venture beyond my comfort zones in search of new ideas, experiences, and adventures.
  
• Perceptive – No one is unimportant to me. I can pick up on even the subtlest shifts in another person’s mood or expression. Because I'm so sensitive to other people’s feelings and needs, I can make full use of my caring, considerate nature.
• Enthusiastic – When something captures my imagination and inspires me, I want to share it with anyone who will listen. And I'm just as eager to hear other people’s ideas and opinions – even if those thoughts are wildly different from my own.

@jersey123456

I think it's awesome that we somehow share our personality and talk about pondering over things that sometimes it leads to stress, I can 100 percent relate. This is to embracing our personality fully 🥂 😊

@GlenM

@GlenM

Thanks for sharing. I am INFJ-T

@GlenM

Great learning

@GlenM

1. What is your personality type? Include your 4 letters please Â?

ENFP-A / ENFP-T

Campaigner Personality

2. What were the main things you learned about yourself

I have learnt about some of my tendencies which include having so many ideas, interests, and hobbies that sometimes I struggle to fit everything that I care about into my life. Management is important.

I have also learnt that I easily lose interest over long time serious staff and I should keep on finding joy on things like house chores.

3. What are your top 3 strengths or gifts according to this test? Please describe them.

Curious

I tend to go beyond my comfort zone in search for new interesting things. For example, I tend to search Pinterest, Google and of course YouTube to find interesting ways of doing normal day to day stuff.

Perceptive

I value everyone because I feel like they all have a role to play in my life. Sometimes I do a gratitude test where I list the names of people that I have interacted with and the positive things that they impacted in my life.

Enthusiastic

I like sharing the things that interest me with people who bother to listen. For example my birthday challenge idea which was to come up with a number of activities that corresponded to the number of years that I was turning and to do them all.

@GlenM

The accuracy of this test is unthinkable!

Here's my observation based on the results.

1. What is your personality type? Include your 4 letters please Â

INTP - A (Logician)

2. What were the main things you learned about yourself?

I happen to question everything that's put in front of me until I know for a fact what is it that I'm dealing with. This drains tonnes of reserve energy but is in some ways, fruitful at the end.

I find it hard to decipher emotions on a deep level but that doesn't stop me from trying.

3. What are your top 3 strengths or gifts according to this test? Please describe them.

Analytical - The need to analyse everything before stepping into something is a boon. It helps in making rational analysis of events and come up with an apt solution to proceed further

Open minded - This trait often helps me make good connections with personalities that are not me or inclined towards my side. An ability to contemplate and mirror the thoughts of the other person is indeed an asset.

Curiosity - As they say, "Necessity is the mother of all inventions". But, dare I say, "Curiosity is the mother of all necessities". The urge to know more about certain aspects of people, things, procedures and framing a tailored solution based on the combined curiosities is what has got me through so far and hope it continues further.

@GlenM

Just took the test, now.

1. What is your personality type? Include your 4 letters please

3. What are your top 3 strengths or gifts according to this test? Please describe them.

Intuition, sense of mission and connecting with people.

I have Creativity, Imagination and sensitivity.

1. My personality type is ENFJ-T

2. I learned that I wouldn't hold back if someone needed help, no matter the situation, I also learned I act more on my feelings.

3. Receptive, Reliable, Passionate.

Receptive: strong opinions but far from close minded, even if we don't agree with someone we recognize the persons right to

voice their truth.

Reliable: We keep our promises and responsibilities through, even when it's hard to do so

Passionate: Briming with interest and take pleasure pursuing hobbies, as a result we rarely find our self at a loss for something to do.

@xinyii11 nice personality!

@GlenM

1. I have a protagonist personality: ENFJ-T

2. I am thoughtful and idealistic and I strive to have a positive impact on other people. I learned that I am also receptive, reliable, passionate, altruistic, and charismatic.

3. I am receptive: I have strong opinions but they are non closed-minded. I am reliable: I am not bothered by most things except for when someone is feeling depressed. And, I am passionate: I love pursuing my hobbies and I don't find myself at a loss for something interesting to do.

@GlenM

1. What is your personality type? Mediator, INFP-T

2. What were the main things you learned about yourself? The main thing that I learned is I'm more of a turbulent personality than an assertive one. I also learned that empathy is a valorous quality of mine, what I ofter just forget about it, being, I think, more of a passive side of me.

3. What are your top 3 strengths or gifts according to this test? First of all, what I think applies to me is Open-Minded. When I look in the past, I can see how often I just accepted everyone, with an idea they had and with any beliefs. I think it is a passive quality because I don't observe in day-to-day basics. The second one is Creative. In this one, at my first glance, I wasn't sure about it because from as far I know I'm not a very creative person, but after I read about what it means I understood it's not about if I can draw or anything, more of viewing the world from a different and abstract perspective. Idealistic is on my profile too, and I think it applies only partially to me because I like more science and the "real" things, but I can't lie I don't stay in the night, looking at the moon and asking philosophical questions.

@Darius08 you are a nice personality :) nice to meet you

@Samar19

I think patience is a very important quality to have as a leader as you never know what stressful situations you yourself will encounter, but others you lead will encounter too. It's awesome that you have this value and I think it also helps that you are supportive toward others too!

Before knowing about personality types I always wondered why I am not outgoing like others. After knowing that I'm an introvert. I learnt it's okay that I enjoy time alone. I learnt I'm creative in my ways. I became more comfortable with myself.

• Creative – Advocate personalities enjoy finding the perfect solution for the people they care about. To do this, they draw on their vivid imagination and their strong sense of compassion. This can make them excellent counselors and advisors.
• Insightful – Advocates typically strive to move past appearances and get to the heart of things. This can give them an almost uncanny ability to understand people’s true motivations, feelings, and needs.
• Principled – People with the Advocate personality type tend to have deeply held beliefs, and their conviction often shines through when they speak or write about subjects that matter to them. Advocates can be compelling and inspiring communicators, with their idealism persuading even the hardest of skeptics.

Being principled is a great leadership quality to have.

Wow! I think its so awesome that you're a campaigner (: I think its so great to think outside of the box while being observant in leadership positions. I also think sometimes it requires you to be energetic for morale which improves the experience of others and I think often makes it more pleasant and meaningful for others~
