ESFP. I am 41% Extroverted, 1% of Sensing, 31% of Feeling and 3% Perceiving. After seeing my results and I think that some things sounds right and some were off. I think that the extrovert is 100% right. I love being in the spotlight and love to talk and do things with others. I would rather talk to people all day than go a minute without talking. I love to hear about people's days and just like talking to others in general. I always knew that I loved to talk to others because my mom would tell me I would be talking too strangers by the age of 2! I love to hang out with my friends and be surrounded by people all the time. I feel lonely when I have no plans. I love going to new places and seeing and meeting new people! I don't think that I have a 1% of sensing. I always believe that I am in tune with myself and always go with my gut. I sometimes over think situations and says should've done that instead of what I actually did. Which leads into the next thing, I tend to make decisions with my feeling than thinking it over. I sometimes will think over a situation of that might have big impact but if it is a small decisions, I tend to decide with my feelings over than thinking it through. I tend to follow my gut and make designs with my feelings. I believe that I am doing the right thing and follow my heart. Lastly I have no preference of perceiving over judging. I tend to judge things to quickly before I have the chance to see somethings in full. I tend to do this with book a lot. I will judge it before the second chapter but sometimes I end up liking that book or sometimes I follow my instincts and was right and knew I wouldn't like it. 

Personally I don't think that one test will know your personality 100% because we are constantly changing and our personalities change also. Everyone has their own personalities and I think that everyones personalities are there own. I develop and know a persons personality over me spending time with them. I also have see "introverts" at social gathering and "extroverts" being alone. I think everyones personality is amazing and I won't judge a personal based on it. 

For the leadership test, my score was a 64. "I am on my way of becoming a great leader" I usually like being in charge and when I saw my results I wasn't surprised. I am not bossy but I like when there is leadership when I do assignments and at school. I don't like when this are unorganized and I feel better when there is a sense of direction and leadership evolved. I believe that things run better when someone is in chaser and when there is organization and not chaos involved.

My results from the brain dominance assessments were that I am slightly more towards the left. I thought that I would be more to the left when I first found out the results but the more I thought about it I realized that I do certain things that are more right brained. For instance, when I process the new information I need to see a list of instructions I can't imagine how something will look. I have always been someone to follow directions and just start a new project open-handed, I need some sort of direction or guidelines at least. But when I make decisions I find myself in both the right and left side of the brain. I think it really depends on what decision is it. Small quick decisions where I don't really need to over think them I think about it logically, I don't use my gut feeling or emotions to decide what the outcome should be. But big decisions, that I know will have an impact on my life I like to still down and really think about it. Like in chapter five of Tattoos on the Heart, I felt that my decisions for what college I was going to were slow. I don't know why it felt like that but it sure seemed that way. My right brain side kicked in and I sat down and thought about it. I decided to use my emotions and feeling to decide, rather than think about it logistically. I thought about so many things, is this the right school for me, will I have the college experience here, can I see myself here, does this school feel right in my heart? There were too many questions to be answered so I went for what I felt like was the best decision by in the end I should've thought about the situation on both sides; with my feeling and logic behind it. Instead, I pick a school to make my mom happy cause I felt that was the right thing to do. After reading chapter five I now realized I should've put more thought into it and slowed down and thought about what I wanted and not make others happy. I need to go where I feel is right and not where others tell I should go. I think the impact of the decision that I made me realized that I should've listened to myself. After reading chapter 5, what I can take from is that some decisions are going to make an impact on your life, big or small. We need to really think about them, even though the process might be slow but in the end, the decisions get made. I, myself, and others can probably relate to Leo and his decision on going to college and now has a job. We all made that decisions at one point in our lives are we going to college? In the end, I can see how these decisions and slow work really has an effect on our lives. 

 

My results for the managing emotions section were 27. Even though I scored the lowest on this section I still feel like I am able to stay focused even if I am experiencing emotion. Occasionally I am able to block off my emotions from the world and not have my emotions affect me. But other times if a certain event has really affected me I cannot help my emotions. In the future, I hope I can control certain events that can change my emotions and be able to express them in a way so I don’t get off task. But also I am in tune with my emotions so maybe if something were to happen it could be a sign to let me know to just a quick break so I can get back to focus. 

 

My results of the motivating oneself were 30. In a way, I like to use my emotions in a way where I can benefit from them. I will often take my emotions and use them as a motivation towards my goals in life. If I am feeling happy, excited or even sad I like to take those emotions and get to work. Sometimes these emotions can sit me down for hours and do homework because I’m motivated to get it done. Also when I’m feeling stressed I like to motivate my self to relax for a bit or just take a quick nap because I know it will help clear my head. In the future, I’d like to take my emotions and use them at work to help guide myself in a certain situation and also use those emotions to help others. 

 

My results for the empathy section were 37. This was the section I scored the highest on and I am not surprised. I have always had this sense of empathy towards others since I can remember. When even someone was upset or just need to talk to someone, I would be there and listen to him or her for hours. I felt like I could relate and connect to their issues and had this sense of compassion towards them. I didn’t just say things would get better I would listen to them and give them comfort in times of need. I didn’t matter if I was busy or it was the middle of the night, I would always be there for them in the time of need. I had to grow up pretty quickly as a child so I missed out on some parts of my childhood that others experienced. I was always told that I was more mature for my age and that I was a good listener. I like to make others comfortable and be there for them. I think this is one of my most cherished traits that I have and am I glad I have it. In the future, I would like to use this in my career and be able to help and listen to others when they need it. And also take time for me to be listened to. I sometimes push my feeling aside and don’t always take care of myself so I would like to give myself some time to be heard as well. 

My results for the social skill section were 30. I like to say that I am a very outgoing and social person. I love to talk to others and make new friendships. I also love going to different placed and seeing new and exciting things. I always want others to succeed in life. My mom has always provided for my family and she always had the influence for us to want to succeed as well. I love when I see people working hard on something and when it finally pays off they are so happy. I like to share my emotions so I can hopefully brighten someone’s day or give them some amount of inspiration. In the future, I would like to share my emotions more so I can inspire emotions in others. 

In conclusion, I think that emotions are so important in the world. I believe that emotions are powerful can affect people in so many ways. They are important in my life because they made me realized the person I am today. Without any emotions, people would never have a chance to express happiness or even sadness. It is so important to be in tune with your emotions because they impact our lives daily. I hope that I keep my emotions close to my heart and can someday help others with them.
