Identification

I joined Identification as a relative newcomer to personality typing. In 2013, I took a Psychology 101 class (required core curriculum at my university), so the words Myers-Briggs and Enneagram sounded vaguely familiar. Beyond that, I was ready for a new experience!

When I joined the server, I was prompted to take a series of three different personality assessments. They took under 30 minutes total, especially since most of the questions are designed to be answered on instinct. If one of the choices speaks to you, you should instantly pick that one and not overthink it. This will give a correct assessment of how you think.

After I did these tests, I posted my results into a dedicated server channel, and tagged an experienced typist (not someone who types on a keyboard, but a person who is knowledgeable about personality types, and the art of “typing”). They were quick to come to my aid and interpret my results for me.

I was asked a few questions about my results as the typist nailed down my personality types. I was presented with two different options and was asked to say which one described me best. This process was repeated a few times, diving into different personality tests and subtypes. I had no idea some of these personality tests could get so complex and deep. This isn’t a silly internet quiz about “What Avenger Are You?” or something – this is the real deal. I have to give my regards to the staff at Identification for dedicating their time to this analysis.

At the end of it, I ended up as an ESTJ, and 6w5, and sp/so, and a 613. If you want to know what those all mean, join the Identification server!

I found these results to be pretty accurate to how I am feeling right now, at this stage of my life. I’m always willing to help out and take on tasks and have taken on a bit of a “if you want it done right, do it yourself” attitude, which was clearly represented in my results. I also took note of the results that mentioned never being fully satisfied with my work and always needing to improve. This was a nice dive into the things stressing me out at this point in my life, and inspired me to take a closer look at myself.

This is the real goal of the server after all. It’s a server of self-discovery, and I felt myself begin a journey of self-exploration that I haven’t attempted since my soul-searching college years.

The 127 is the kind of person that loves to make learning fun. In every aspect of their lives, 127s seek to foster learning and growth. This type truly does believe that we all learn something new every day and that the beauty and joy of life lie in that. The high standards of 1 combine with the external nature of 2 to produce an urge to foster growth and potential in others. Combined with the upbeat and cheerful 7, the 127 creates an atmosphere of enjoying learning effortlessly. Sometimes the focus on positivity can become too strong though, leading to the rigidity when the situation demands a more somber approach.

Of all types, the 268 struggles the most with a fluctuating sense of security and self worth. Compelled to help others by the influence of 2, while 6 and 8 keep the focus on any potential threats. The 268 feels most comfortable when they know all the rules in a situation, and exactly which ones van be broken if necessary. This type is called “The Rescuer” and this title often resonates with persons of this type as a sense of purpose. 268s must be careful not to become over identified with this rescuer persona, because it can cast everyone in the role of a victim, leading the 268 to offer unsolicited advice and become very meddlesome.
