Want to know which type of personality type do you belong? Here’s how!

During the past few weeks, I’ve been strolling on the internet trying to find out new interesting ideas for my blog. After hours of surfing the net, I discovered a personality test called the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The MBTI was made by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers. The MBTI is based on a theory that was proposed by Carl Jung. The indicator did ring a bell, I knew I have taken this before. I became a subject once for a psychological test conducted by my cousin in college and I knew I have undergone the MBTI. Out of curiosity, I researched and took the test again because I have already forgotten my results.

For starters, the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a questionnaire used for indicating people’s perception and preferences as well as decision making. In short, it is a test that could help an individual know himself better by identifying himself in one of the 16 personalities.
