Introverted-Sensing-Feeling-Judging.
that's what i got when i took the MBTI personality test.
a tad lengthy. you can stop here if you want... =D
ISFJs are characterized above all by their desire to serve others, their "need to be needed.
They are often unappreciated, at work, home, and play.
Ironically, because they prove over and over that
they can be relied on for their loyalty and unstinting,
high-quality work, those around them often take them for granted
--even taking advantage of them.
Admittedly, the problem is sometimes aggravated by the ISFJs themselves;
for instance, they are notoriously bad at delegating:"If you want it done right, do it yourself".
(lol. quite true actually. i only delegate to people whom i REALLY trust. or when there's too much work.)
And although they're hurt by being treated like doormats,
they are often unwilling to toot their own horns about their accomplishments
because they feel that although they deserve more credit than they're getting,
it's somehow wrong to want any sort of reward for doing work.
And as low-profile, their actions don't call attention to themselves as with charismatic extroverts.
Because of all of this, ISFJs are often overworked, and as a result may suffer from psychosomatic illnesses.
(wow...THAT bad ah?)
In the workplace, ISFJs are methodical and accurate workers,
often with very good memories and unexpected analytic abilities;
they are also good with people in small-group or one-on-one situations
because of their patient and genuinely sympathetic approach to dealing with others.
ISFJs make pleasant and reliable co-workers and exemplary employees.
Traditional careers for an ISFJ include: teaching, social work, most religious work,
nursing, general practitioner, clerical and and secretarial work,
and some kinds of administrative careers.
(oooohh...nursing's included!!)
While their work ethic is high on the ISFJ priority list,
their families are the centers of their lives.
ISFJs are extremely warm and demonstrative within the family circle
--and often possessive of their loved ones, as well.
Like most Is, ISFJs have a few, close friends.
They are extremely loyal to these, and are ready to provide emotional
and practical support at a moment's notice.
the bottomline is that i'm actually an introvert. heh.
