Multiple Personalities

I have read a couple of blogs here lately where they describe the results of their Myers-Briggs Test.  If you have never taken the Myers-Briggs, which most people have at one time or another, it can be quite eye-opening or it could just be a good neck exercise from nodding so much.  NightSkyRadio and Delightful both shared their results. 

I have a problem...I must have multiple personalities:) I am totally kidding by the way..no need for concern here..just one me.  I know you all feel much safer now:)

I know in high school when I took this for career counseling that I was the "Protector" personality.  In college, when I took it for a class I was the "Supporter" personality.  So I took the test the other day...mind you I think it was a shortened test but my result was the "Confidant" personality.  So last night I took it again to show Levi and instead scored the "Mentor" personality with only a change in 5% between two indicators.  So I have concluded that I must have multiple personalities.  But don't we all:)

 

Some things change...some thing stay the same.

Some very interesting observations from my personality tests:

All my personalities fit in with the protectors or the visionaries.
My feeling and judging scores do not change (thinking and perceiving apparently not my thing)
My extroverted and introverted scores change with my sensing and intuition scores
When I read these four personalities I can see myself in each of them
I don't see much of myself in the other 12 personalities
Counselor is a suggested career choice in every one of my personalities which is what I have always wanted to do.
My personality has "changed" depending on my life stage, experience, and mood. (not surprising)
