Two nights ago I asked my mom a question –

What color is a mirror?

Her response – (paraphrased) “Any color it reflects.”

My response: “Silver.”

Now, I’m definitely a “right-side brain” person, and my mom is definitely left. So it was interesting that she had the more “creative” answer, and I the more practical.

So, fast forward roughly 24 hours, and my family is sitting at the dinner table, and I ask my dad the same question.

What color is a mirror?

He pauses, and I inform him that this isn’t a trick question.

His response: “Clear.”

It’s one of those questions that can be argued forever so we quickly gave that up. Then my dad tells me to take a Myer’s Briggs Personality Type Test. I grab my Mac, and search Google.

This is the first test I took, and the results kind of surprised me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Curious, I decided to take another one. A little test of sorts, to see how widely these free online personality tests differed from one another. So I went back to Google, and clicked on another link, and took that test as well.

The results for this test fell more in line with what my dad thought I’d be. Apparently I’m turbulent.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just because Google has so many options, I decided to take a third test. These results ended up being the same as the second one, which makes me think that INTP is more likely my personality type than ISFP.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I definitely liked the last test the best. It gives you some more information – strength and weaknesses, personal relationships (parenthood, romantic, friendship) and career. With the further reading, it was easier to see how many characteristics/aspects were accurate.

Though, I take this with a grain of salt. Even though these tests are designed to test you and determine your personality, they aren’t fool proof, and I don’t think they are fully indicative of who we are. All three of these tests are FREE on the internet. So keep that in mind. They are fun, and it’s interesting to see what other people get, but don’t let a free test off the internet define you. Where’s the fun in that?

If you take the any of the tests, leave a comment!
