i havent looked at this box in my facebook profile for ages, but since im undergoing a reflective period this should help abit. help me figure out how i am like now and characteristics that i should consider about to be a better person (in God's opinion).

Big five personality questionaire
Openness (56%) - uhh yes, half half. prob cos i go to a pretty traditional church and from a conservative family. but bcos of my agreeability im quite accepting of others following new trends/ideas that may/may not be against my principles as long as i stand firm on my principles and am not involved.

This trait refers to the extent to which you prefer novelty versus convention. Approximately 11% of respondents have a lower openness raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is down-to-earth and prefers things to be simple and straightforwards. You might say that it just makes life easier if things don't change unnecessarily, that the arts are of no practical use to you, and that you think tradition is more important than others do.
Reflective question: How do you react to change?


Conscientiousness (81%) - haha yes, i like order in my life i guess. my room is..not THAT tidy though XD

This trait refers to the extent to which you prefer an organised, or a flexible, approach in life. Approximately 88% of respondents have a lower conscientiousness raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is a perfectionist. From your responses it appears that you prefer to plan everything to the last detail, which has consequently led to you being very successful and extremely reliable. From your responses it appears that more than most you enjoy seeing your long-term plans come to fruition.
Reflective question: How does being in an untidy environment make you feel?


Extraversion (81%) - woah that's high!i guess im gradually moving away from Intraversion.... something im trying very hard now. cos i think it's quite sad to not be sociable. i can survive being alone at home though,kind of like the quietness.

This trait refers to the extent to which you enjoy company, and seek excitement and stimulation. Approximately 85% of respondents have a lower extraversion raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is constantly energetic, exuberant and active. Your answers describe you as someone who aims to be the centre of attention at social occasions, asserts yourself when in groups, and usually says, "Yes!"
Reflective question: Do you prefer to be busy all the time? Why?


Agreeableness (88%) - yeah totally.although i hate it when people tell me anything, i love using anything HAHA. unless it concerns work/study. when my performance is in jeopardy then too bad.coincides with my strong need for good quality work.

This trait refers to the way you express your opinions and manage relationships. Approximately 95% of respondents have a lower agreeableness raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is extremely easy to get along with. Your responses suggest that you would say you are considerate, friendly, generous and helpful and you consider most other people to be thoroughly decent and trustworthy.
Reflective question: Is your co-operative preference ever taken advantage of by others?


Neuroticism (Emotional stability) (56%) - quite okay still in control. optimistic is the way to go!

This trait refers to the way you cope with, and respond to, life's demands. Approximately 79% of respondents have a lower neuroticism raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is generally calm. Based on your responses, you come across as someone who can feel emotional or stressed out by some experiences, however your feelings tend to be warranted by the situation.
Reflective question: Which situations make you feel under pressure and which situations do not?


and they even translated this to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (the usual 4 letter personality type). and apparently, im ESFJ, contrary to my usual ISFJ!

ESFJs are warmly interested in others. They use their Sensing and Judging characteristics to gather specific, detailed information about others, and turn this information into supportive judgments. They want to like people, and tend to be skilled at bringing out the best in others. They strive to understand other points of view. The ESFJs' strong desire to be liked, and for everything to be pleasant, makes them highly supportive of others. People like to be around ESFJs, because ESFJs have a gift for making people feel good about themselves. All else being equal, ESFJs enjoy being in charge. They see problems clearly and delegate easily, work hard and play with zest.

okay la which means i have quite a fixed personality except for the E/I which im still struggling with(prob borderline anw).
it's a good thing because at least now i know i work this way, will be less confused abt myself and know where to go from here.in fact maybe ESFJ suits me better than ISFJ, i've always felt that the description for ISFJ wasnt quite 'there' abt me.

so now that i kind of know myself slightly better (long way to go) it's time to continue reflecting.
ciao!
