TRUE TYPES TYPE FAMILIES POST #3: MEET THE Te-s TYPE FAMILY

I was able to chronicle all 5 SOJT types in the Te-s family that would all be represented in DISC. They all fall under the D/C profile, and are found in the off wheel result D=C, as well as slots 21, 41, 141 and 22. Slot 121 also belongs to the Te-s family, but it is a SOJT type above and beyond the 5 represented in each DISC profile.

Here are the similarities between the 5 SOJT types that make up the Te-s family. These *should* make up the description for the MBTI type ESTJ. But we know how messed up the MBTI is:

What is written above *should* be what an ESTJ type description in the MBTI looks like, Since those were all common characteristics of the Te-s type family.

Let's go on and look at the 5 main SOJT types that make up the Te-s type family, and what makes each SOJT type distinctly different from the other 4

SOJT type: Se-t (D<A, auxiliary serves as dominant)

MBTI type most resonant: ESTJ

What were  you  like  in high school? 

I was a total rebel, and didn't participate in school activities. I was not "in".

What is your  greatest  fear? What do you  do to address it? 

My greatest fear is that I'll be taken advantage of. I'm trying to overcome it, but it's hard

Was  there a time in your life where you felt you hit  rock bottom? What was the  situation  behind  it? 

Nope. I am a very achievement oriented person, so I don’t think there *is* a rock bottom, unless you're talking about where you start

Where  would  you  put yourself  on the social spectrum, and why? 

I would say an extrovert who's not focused on people

What are some things that really bother you? 

Being told what to do, people trying to control me and unreliable people

What,  would you say, are your biggest strengths? 

My biggest strengths are being reliable and dependable, and getting things done

What,  would you say,  are your  biggest  weaknesses? 

I seem angry to a lot of people, and they think I don't care. I can also be impatient and arrogant

When  you  switch  your  attitude between  introverted  and  extroverted,  or vise versa,  what are  you  like?

When I'm introverted, I become very shy and withdrawn.

What was the hardest  thing  you  ever had  to  do? Why was  it  so  hard? 

I don't think anything is too hard. I'm always up for good challenges, and I look forward to the hard times, because they give me something I can rise above and conquer. And I like doing that

What are you  like  when  you're  sad? 

It was when I was suffering from depression, and before I was taking antidepressants to control it. That was so long ago, I really can't remember

How masculine/feminine  do  you  feel  in relation  to others  of your  gender? 

I'd say super-masculine for the most part, except for my long curly hair in the pony tail

Here's  4 focuses  you can have in  life: tasks, people,  objects and ideas.  Which one would  be  your  primary focus and why? Which one  would be your  secondary  focus  and why? 

My primary focus is tasks. I'm definitely a task master. Do we have to have 2? The second one is so *hard* to identify. I guess I'll go with objects for the secondary focus, because I'm not a people person, and I'm *definitely* not an ideas person

What do you  do to have fun? 

I don't have fun. I really need to learn how.

What was  the  nicest thing you ever  did  for  someone,  and why did  you  do  it? 

I was dependable and reliable, and it was an extention of my strengths

Thanks, Ramón, for sharing with us

TYPING IN PRACTICE POST #12: MADONNA

Continuing with the theme of Detroit area "local legends " and "hometown heroes", I am now going to show how I typed Madonna. She was another "local legend" of my era, although she started in music 2 decades after the Supremes did.

Madonna was born in Bay City, MI. That's at the base of Michigan's "thumb", for those who don't know. Her family moved to the Detroit area when she was very young, and she grew up in the suburbs of Pontiac, Auburn Hills and Rochester Hills. Her mother died from cancer at some point, and the family moved to Rochester Hills, because that's where Madonna's stepmother (her dad remarried) already had a home. She had many siblings, biological and through marriage, but one of her favorite siblings was her biological brother Chris. I read an autobiography/biography a while back that Madonna and Chris wrote together. I also have a second-cousin who graduated from Rochester Adams High School, which is also Madonna's alma mater. I asked her if they ever mentioned anything about Madonna attending there. My second-cousin said that yes, and not only do they mention that, but they make a big deal about it. I have never tried typing Madonna until now.

Just a little more background before we get started after her high school graduation, she went to New York to study dance, and dance with dance troupes. Around 1980, she decided she had had enough of just dancing, and she wanted to sing. While her dance troupe was in France, a scout for a record label heard her sing, and wanted to sign her to a recording contract. She turned it down, and told Casey Kasum in 1988, that it was because it was an easy ticket for her to get fame and fortune, but she didn't want it that easy. She wanted to *work hard* to get her contract. So she returned to the US, worked hard, and 2 years later, got a recording contract, that she *worked* for.

Now, I think that's enough background. On to the typing we go. Historically, Madonna has proved to be hard for many typologists to type. I even had a hard time typing her myself. There are a few reasons for that. The first is, in my typing, I found out Madonna has 3 conscious functions. She also is, what Vendrah would call, in this article, "more than one type":

Second, because of being more than one type, it is very hard to figure out, for the typologists who use the Berens Communication Styles or Kiersey temperaments, which one she actually is. I've seen typologists agree that she's ES, but after that, there's always disagreement as to whether she's T or F, J or P. The most common type I see listed for her is ESTP. Close, folks, but no cigar. 😉🤫

Step 1: I typed Madonna using 5 different interview videos. I will post some of them at the end. 2 were from 1984, when Madonna was 26 years old. The others were from more recent years. I watched the videos through several times, carrying out different typing procedures as I went

Step 2: the first time through, I looked for the essentials, such as DISC quadrant and function related themes. In one of the videos I used, Madonna was talking about her friendship with Michael Jackson. She was talking about dominating Michael Jackson and imposing her will on him. In one of her 26 year old interviews, she talks about how she is in music for the fame and fortune, and how she wants to conquer the world. These are just a few examples of things I saw that would place her in the D (Dominance) quadrant of DISC, so that is where I put her. As far as themes, I saw 3. Tasks, objects and people. The tasks and objects were in large amounts. The people was small by comparison. Madonna mentioned relationships and ethics between 5-10 times between the 5 videos. There was no mention at all of ideas. Well, we know she's definitely not an intuitive 😂🤣😆 Because of the 3 themes I was able to narrow down her DISC and SOJT type to either a non wheeled result D=I (-), which correlates with the SOJT type Se preferring T>F ; or Slot 21 on the DISC wheel which is the SOJT type Te-s/Se-f. As far as letters, we have ESTx.

Step 3: the third time through I did a Jungian function analysis on Madonna's instances of thinking and decision making. This is actually what I did to discover my lovely dream people's SOJT types. I wrote out instances of them thinking and deciding, and determined what functions were involved in those thoughts/decisions. Granted, I didn't have to write down Madonna's thoughts and decisions, because they were provided to me in the videos, but otherwise, I executed the procedure exactly the same. The result was Te-s/Se-f.

Step 4: I watched the videos yet again, and this time, looked for facets of DISC. I couldn't slot her, however, I could definitely place her in the D/C profile.

Step 5: Who gets Te-s/Se-f as a SOJT type and the D/C profile? The "more than one type" ESTJ. There are 2 dream people who have this SOJT type: a man named Ariel who we read about in True Types post #30, and a woman named Callie. The commonalities between Madonna and Ariel, and especially Madonna and Callie, since the were the same gender, were absolutely crazy, and made me laugh, they had so much in common 🤣 😂 😆

So anyway, with that, we have a type identification: although Madonna does not fit a type perfectly, I have identified her SOJT type as Te-s/Se-f, and the MBTI type most resonant is ESTJ

Here are the 2 interviews I cited above. I'm only posting the ones I cited:

And here's more information about the SOJT type Te-s/Se-f, in my "mock interview " with Ariel:

TYPING IN PRACTICE # 11: THE SUPREMES

I said I was going to type a bunch of Detroit area "hometown heroes " I had, growing up in Metro Detroit. I've typed Eminem. I'm in his generation, so for me , he didn't really fit the "hometown heroes " category, although he does for many people of younger generations. However, the Supremes really were "hometown heroes" for me, in every sense of the word. And the Supremes were pretty much over by the time I was born, and when I moved up to the Detroit area, they were totally a thing of the past. Yet the fact that Diane (Diana) Ross, Florence Ballard and Mary Wilson all grew up in poverty, yet went on to become one of the greatest female singing groups of all time made them "local legends" and "hometown heroes", and with that , my education into the Supremes began.

I got so caught up in the Supremes, from that education, I auditioned for a Motown cover band to sing Supremes songs. I also have an "Essential" Supremes collection released in the mid to late 2000s, when a music distributor released the "Essential" series. I even went so far as to voice type them: Florence Ballard as a "Dugazon", a hybrid voice that has the high notes of a soprano, but the low notes of a mezzo soprano; and Diane and Mary were both mezzo sopranos with different tone quality. But I never personality typed them until now.

The resources I used for the personality typings were: "Where Did Our Love Go?: the Rise and Fall of The Motown Sound" by Nelson George, and "Dreamgirl: My Life As a Supreme " by Mary Wilson.

Step 1: identify everyone's DISC quadrant: Diane (Diana) Ross liked having authority, liked to take charge of situations, and was very determined and persistent. She clearly belongs in the D quadrant. I noticed Florence Ballard had enthusiasm, liked talking, was a promoter of people, was spontaneous, loved to have fun and liked being popular. Those things put her in the I quadrant. I noticed Mary Wilson was loyal, accommodating, sympathetic, nurturing and a peacemaker. I decided that was enough to put her in the S quadrant, yet it was not, as we shall later see. So far , for letters, we have: Diane: ET, Florence: EF, Mary, IF.

Step 2: at this early point, it was also clear that all 3 women had a conscious sensation function; because singing, dancing, performing and entertaining were all thematic in their lives. If not the overarching theme, objects was at least the incidental theme for all 3 women. So we know, none of them was an intuitive. We have only sensors present. So far for the letters, we have Diane: EST, Florence: ESF, Mary: ISF

Step 3: figure out the overarching themes. Diane's was pretty easy to see: it was power, fame, sucees, money, etc. These are all themes for ETs as either overarching or incidental. However, since these are overarching themes, we know that Te is not only conscious but in first place for Diane. Therefore, we have a type identification for one of the 3: Diane (Diana) Ross is an ESTJ. Now to move on to Mary and Florence

Step 4: I figured out the overarching theme for Mary, and it was people. So I initially typed Mary as ISFJ, but I realized if she really *were* an ISFJ, she would have probably had Diane angry at her, for "dropping the ball", more than Florence. And she would have picked up on Mary's sensitivity and dislike for change, and would have been seeing Mary as a hindrance to her dream. And, since that was not the story, I took a look at those S traits, and realized they were common secondary S traits (where S is above 50/50, but not the highest letter). As a result, I did an actual DISC assessment on Mary Wilson, and found her to be I=S, which is in Jungian typology, F-s preferring extroverted>introverted. This means that although Mary Wilson could sometimes resemble an ISFJ, more often than not, she functioned as an ESFJ. So now, we have a type identification for Mary Wilson as an imperfect, but we'll take it, ESFJ. Now on to Florence.

Step 5: Florence was definitely the hardest of the 3 to type. She suffered from depression her entire post adolescent life. But it was still clear that Florence's overarching theme was, in fact performing. That was her overarching theme, and people were just incidental. That led me to type her as ESFP, but confirming that Florence was, in fact an ESFP was a nightmare, because Florence was "depression". But the cool thing about DISC is, it is not mood related. I looked for S (Steadiness)traits in Florence, and found none. Also, what started Florence's depression was Diane and Berry Gordy (incidentally, I believe Berry Gordy is a High D as well as Diane) decreasing Florence's performance opportunities ( a real blow to an SP). When Florence's depression was so bad that she started losing interest in everything (except eating, sleeping, etc), Diane ultimately saw Florence as a stumbling block to her pursuing her own dream, and had Florence removed from the group. Florence was replaced, and the group went on. ESFPs would generally be able to take blows like that , and just wait in the wings for the ESTJ to leave the coop, much like ESFJ Mary Wilson was able to do. But because of Florence's undealt with emotional problems and trust issues she developed from being raped, she became more susceptible to spiraling into depression, when she felt like her performance opportunities were taken from her. Florence is a very sad example of what ESFPs are like when they don't take care of their mental and emotional health. Surprisingly, Florence did not commit suicide, but died from heart disease, at only 32.

So, there we have it. The 3 women who grew up in poverty in Detroit, and rising up to become one of the greatest female groups of all time, were:

Diane (Diana) Ross, an ESTJ

Florence Ballard, an ESFP, and

Mary Wilson, an ESFJ

TRUE TYPES POST #36: CARA

DISC: D/C profile; result: D/C (I), slot 22

SOJT type: Te (undifferentiated auxiliary function, favoring S>N)

MBTI type most resonant: ESTJ

What were  you  like  in high school? 

I was a premature "hustler". Let's put it that way

What is your  greatest  fear? What do you  do to address it? 

My greatest fear is looking contradictory to people, or coming across as a hypocrite. This is a deep seated fear, and I haven't been able to overcome it

Was  there a time in your life where you felt you hit  rock bottom? What was the  situation  behind  it? 

Rock bottom? That's a hard one. I guess you could say it was the death of my husband. It didn't affect my work performance too much, however, because my life is so focused on working and achievements, I don't think I ever really took time to mourn my loss

Where  would  you  put yourself  on the social spectrum, and why? 

Extrovert, but not socially oriented. I've got a lot of energy to me

What are some things that really bother you? 

People not being reliable, for one. Second, I would say me not setting a good example

What,  would you say, are your biggest strengths? 

I am dependable and reliable person. You can count on me to hold up my end of the deal. I am also highly productive, and get a lot of things done

What,  would you say,  are your  biggest  weaknesses? 

People say I'm not great with social intelligence. I agree. I try to be, but I'm just not good at it. I also have a hard time forgiving myself, when I make a mistake

When  you  switch  your  attitude between  introverted  and  extroverted,  or vise versa,  what are  you  like?

When I am introverted, I become like a little child, and when you correct me for bad behavior while I'm in an introverted attitude, I will actually listen to you, and change my ways

What was the hardest  thing  you  ever had  to  do? Why was  it  so  hard? 

It was moving to a new city, as a single mom with a blended family containing 6 children, after my husband's death. We had completely planned the move, and everything was in place, when he passed away. Because everything was in place, I and my 6 children made the move anyway, on the scheduled date. It was hard because I was making the move as a single parent, without my husband. Also, I was moving out of my hometown for the first time in my life, at age 33!

What are you  like  when  you're  sad? 

The last time I was sad was so long ago, I can't remember. Sorry

How masculine/feminine  do  you  feel  in relation  to others  of your  gender? 

I'd say I'm slightly more masculine than most women. I've kind of got a masculine and very businesslike bent to me, but even then, I was never thought of as, nor would I consider myself to be,a tomboy

Here's  4 focuses  you can have in  life: tasks, people,  objects and ideas.  Which one would  be  your  primary focus and why? Which one  would be your  secondary  focus  and why? 

Tasks are definitely first. My life is all about completing tasks, and achieving goals. I would say second is objects. I definitely prefer objects over ideas, and very much over people

What do you  do to have fun? 

I actually need to learn how to have fun. It's like my life is all work and no play

What was  the  nicest thing you ever  did  for  someone,  and why did  you  do  it? 

The nicest thing I've ever done for people is to be reliable and dependable. People know they can always count on me to complete things, and to do what I say I will. I do that because that's just the type of person I am naturally and instinctively

MBTI type most resonant: ESTJ. ESFP also resonates, but nowhere as much as ESTJ

What were  you  like  in high school? 

In high school, I was the student who was really good at public speaking, and was quite persuasive in my speaking, yet could still appeal to people's hearts and sometimes be very entertaining in my speaking as well. I was an excellent student, in NHS, and much of an overachiever as well. I was not part of the "in" crowd

What is your  greatest  fear? What do you  do to address it? 

My greatest fear is that I won't live up to the vision I have for myself. I address that, by not making my vision too lofty. I try not to be a perfectionist, but it's hard

Was  there a time in your life where you felt you hit  rock bottom? What was the  situation  behind  it? 

I don't hit rock bottom. I'm a constant achiever, constantly moving forward

Where  would  you  put yourself  on the social spectrum, and why? 

Extroverted, for sure. I'm always talking, and always doing most of it.

What are some things that really bother you? 

People, who are disrespectful to the people who care about me, bother me the most.

What,  would you say, are your biggest strengths? 

Some of my strengths are being efficient, reliable, and getting things done. Yet at the same time, I can also be loving and compassionate. Don't ask me how I do that. I couldn't tell you

What,  would you say,  are your  biggest  weaknesses? 

I'm not very patient, and I have haughtiness and arrogance that drives others up the wall. I really try not to be that way. It's hard

When  you  switch  your  attitude between  introverted  and  extroverted,  or vise versa,  what are  you  like?

I can't say I've ever done that. I'd almost say I'm a super extovert

What was the hardest  thing  you  ever had  to  do? Why was  it  so  hard? 

The hardest thing I ever had to do was admit I can't be good at everything. This was hard, because I'm an overachiever, and I want to be successful at everything I do, and become good at everything I learn

What are you  like  when  you're  sad? 

I can't remember the last time I was sad. It was a long, long time ago

How masculine/feminine  do  you  feel  in relation  to others  of your  gender? 

I'd say average. I'm not exactly big, strong and athletic. But I'm certainly not a pansy either.

Here's  4 focuses  you can have in  life: tasks, people,  objects and ideas.  Which one would  be  your  primary focus and why? Which one  would be your  secondary  focus  and why? 

My first focus is tasks. Iam definitely focused on completing tasks and achievement. As far as number two, I'm kind of torn between objects and people. I'm very practical, down to earth, and like tangible objects, that I can observe with my senses. I'm not going to believe something unless I can see it with my own eyes. At the same time, I love being well known in my community, having lots of people looking up to me as a leader, and me leading them in a loving and kind, fair and just way

What do you  do to have fun? 

Sometimes, I just have to take a break from all this hard work. It's hard for me to do, but I've found it very good to take a break from time to time, and just relax and unwind. I usually take these breaks as a vacation with my wife and children

What was  the  nicest thing you ever  did  for  someone,  and why did  you  do  it? 

I think the nicest thing I ever did was stand up for the Caribbean creole community that we have in our neighborhood. I am a creole myself, and I canvery clearly see our issues. I think a lot of my neighbors in the community appreciate how I've stood up for them in the past. I do it partially driven by compassion, and partially from my desire to be a leader

Thanks, Ariel, for sharing with us

An interesting thing about Ariel: when I was doing his function analysis, I can't remember which, but I found either 7 or 8 of the 8 functions in his analysis. So I was wondering if he was more than one type, or if he was an undifferentiated attitude. (I can usually only find 6 functions in the analysis of people who are more than one type), so I pretended to be Ariel, and took the IDR labs function test, which uses the actual Jungian functions, and does not use the Grant stack. Here is a graphic representation of the results, showing what function test results look like, probably for most of these "more than one type " people I'm finding:

Notice how in these "more than one type " people, the dominant and auxiliary for each type are all in a row, and the auxiliary of the primary type also serves as the dominant for the secondary type!😯 Also notice how the last 2 functions are the pole of the secondary type and the pole of the primary type! 😳 Interesting!

I'd say the function test results probably would look similar for all the other "more than one type " profiles I discussed. I will pin those below, so you can refer to them, and compare and contrast the "more than one type " folks

Additional typologies I've been able to do on Ariel since:

TYPING IN PRACTICE POST #2: LI JO

This is one of the first typings (other than my dream people) I did, using my combined DISC/Jungian typology approach. I'm going to break it down step by step, how I typed LiJo.

LiJo is a YouTuber, who's real name is Lindsay Johnson, and believes firmly that she is an INTJ. In many people's eyes, she is obviously mistyped, and when viewers mention that in the comments of her videos, she blocks those viewers from her channel. She has a reputation for being very unfriendly and dominant and controlling on YouTube.

So I figured I would take her on. Here's how I approached the situation:

1. I started by trying to figure out LiJo's function preferences first, to determine which way I should be looking in a type. LiJo prefers S to N and T to F.

2. I looked for facets of DISC, that could help me identify LiJo's DISC profile. LiJo is very authoritative, dominant and controlling. She's also quite productive in her video output, and is efficient in getting videos up and done. She is very practical in her videos, and gets right to the point. She doesn't beat around the bush. She is conscientious, and has some perfectionistic tendencies. Those are facets of D and C, therefore LiJo's DISC profile is D/C. D/C is the only DISC profile that combines those two letters, so yeah, we know the profile has to be D/C.

3. D/C normally has a higher D than C, and is equivalent to the Briggs Myers type ESTJ. However, if the C is higher than the D (same profile name), the type also could be some versions of INTJ and ISTP. So next, we look at Jung's functions. Let's go back to the T and S preferences we identified earlier. Are they "outgoing or reserved" as Marson would say? One thing I often use as a visual aid for "outgoing and reserved " is "outgoing" pushing outward and "reserved" pulling inward. LiJo's conscious functions push outward, so they are extroverted, which means the first letter of LiJo's Briggs Myers type is E. So we know from the available Briggs Myers type options that the D/C profile represents, the only one that makes sense is ESTJ.

4. After this, to confirm LiJo was ESTJ further, I used the letter pairing traits from Briggs Myers. LiJo is definitely SJ and not SP, because she tells all kinds of stories in her videos, and relates them to the past. I also found her to be TJ over TP as well.

5. So, in conclusion, LiJo is ESTJ

What were  you  like  in high school? 

In high school, I was mainly focused on getting good grades, so I could go to college, and get the education I needed to work in the international trade industry. I participated in sports, and was in the "in" crowd, but none of that was important to me

What is your  greatest  fear? What do you  do to address it? 

That I haven't achieved enough in life. I'm constantly trying to achieve more. I haven't really done anything to address this fear

Was  there a time in your life where you felt you hit  rock bottom? What was the  situation  behind  it? 

Yes. It was in high school. I got kicked out of the preparatory academy, and put into my regular local high school, because I violated their code of conduct. I learned a lot from that lesson, but I didn't let that stop me, though

Where  would  you  put yourself  on the social spectrum, and why? 

I think I would call myself a less social extrovert. How about that? Does that sound right to you?

What are some things that really bother you? 

Things that bother me are people being unreliable, and having to fix other people's mistakes

What,  would you say, are your biggest strengths? 

You can always count on me to do what I say I will, and I'm very good at follow through.

What,  would you say,  are your  biggest  weaknesses? 

A lot of people say I'm arrogant, and that I come across as cold and unapproachable. I don't particularly see those things in myself, but maybe that's my arrogance

When  you  switch  your  attitude between  introverted  and  extroverted,  or vise versa,  what are  you  like?

When I'm more introverted, I believe I might actually cut off people entirely, or just ignore them, and focus on myself and my tasks

What was the hardest  thing  you  ever had  to  do? Why was  it  so  hard? 

The hardest thing I ever had to do was admit I was wrong, in breaking the preparatory academy's code of conduct, and apologize to the preparatory academy for my behavior. It was hard, because I don't like to admit I'm wrong or apologize. Thise things are very hard for me to do

What are you  like  when  you're  sad? 

I don't think I've ever been sad. I can't remember being sad, anyway

How masculine/feminine  do  you  feel  in relation  to others  of your  gender? 

I think I'm average

Here's  4 focuses  you can have in  life: tasks, people,  objects and ideas.  Which one would  be  your  primary focus and why? Which one  would be your  secondary  focus  and why? 

I would say I'm definitely tasks first. I'm entirely focused on tasks and achievements as my number one focus. As far as number 2, I would have to go with objects, because I'm highly practical, and I don't like dealing with ideas too much, and as we mentioned earlier, I'm not much of a people person

What do you  do to have fun? 

I don't really know. My life really isn't about having fun. It's all about hustling and achievement. I need to learn how to take time out for fun, I guess

What was  the  nicest thing you ever  did  for  someone,  and why did  you  do  it? 

I would say, it was to hire my best friend from high school, when he was released from prison. I always liked him, and I thought it was a shame that he ended up in prison, but yeah, I kept in touch with him while he was there, and hired him when he was released

What were  you  like  in high school? 

I was a student athlete, but I was not part of the "in" crowd, because I was independent and stubborn, and liked to do my own thing

What is your  greatest  fear? What do you  do to address it? 

I fear being a hypocrite more than anything else. I address this fear by watching what I say, and what I promise. Can I fulfill this? I also fear that people will think my work is substandard. I address that fear by putting my best effort into everything I do

Was  there a time in your life where you felt you hit  rock bottom? What was the  situation  behind  it? 

No. I feel like my life is a constant improvement, getting better every day

Where  would  you  put yourself  on the social spectrum, and why? 

I'm an ambivert. I think I'm sort of an extrovert, but I'm not super interested in people, and as a result, I'm usually concentrating on things, and not talking. So, yeah, we'll go with ambivert

What are some things that really bother you? 

People being unreliable. That's what bothers me the most. You can count on me to follow through and get things done, so I feel I should be able to count on you. Too many times , I can't. And that really bothers me

What,  would you say, are your biggest strengths? 

I just said one of them. I'm very reliable. You can count on me to do what I say I'll do. I'm also very efficient, and get things done

What,  would you say,  are your  biggest  weaknesses? 

I'm not very emotionally expressive. I come across as cold to a lot of people. I also have a hard time forgiving myself when I make mistakes, or mess up in some way

When  you  switch  your  attitude between  introverted  and  extroverted,  or vise versa,  what are  you  like?

Since I'm so close to the middle, it's hard for me to tell when I'm being more introverted than extroverted. I liked the question. Sorry I don't have an answer

What was the hardest  thing  you  ever had  to  do? Why was  it  so  hard? 

I honestly don't know how to answer this question , either. I would say, possibly, "everything ", because I'm always challenging myself, and things are getting harder and harder the more accomplished I become

What are you  like  when  you're  sad? 

I haven't been sad since I was young. To be honest, I can't remember what I was like at those times

How masculine/feminine  do  you  feel  in relation  to others  of your  gender? 

I feel I'm about average

Here's  4 focuses  you can have in  life: tasks, people,  objects and ideas.  Which one would  be  your  primary focus and why? Which one  would be your  secondary  focus  and why? 

My primary focus is definitely tasks. If I haven't already shared a boatload of reasons why tasks is my primary focus. After tasks, I'd have to say objects. I am definitely not a people or ideas person

What do you  do to have fun? 

I practice my skills, and hone in on them. I know a lot of people wouldn't consider that fun, but I do

What was  the  nicest thing you ever  did  for  someone,  and why did  you  do  it? 

I think the nicest thing I ever did, I'm pretty sure, was give advice. It's good, sound and practical. I genuinely give it out of a good heart, but since I'm so cold and unemotional, a lot of times, I might come across as having an ulterior motive
