Does Personality Type Have Anything To Do With MC?

Post by tex »

Hi All,

The mention in another thread, of personality types, makes me wonder if maybe personality type might have an influence on a predisposition to MC. I would appreciate if you would select your personality type in this poll, so that if there are any patterns, they might become evident.

If you don't know your type, and are interested finding out, here's a quick and easy test to determine what it is:

http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp

On the same page with your type results, there are a couple of links to type descriptions, where you can find more infirmation about your type, and others, if you're interested.

Note that the terms THE RATIONALS, THE IDEALISTS, THE ARTISANS, and THE GUARDIANS, are just there to seperate the four catagories of personalities.


Thanks,
Tex

Hi Wayne. That test is a lot of fun! I'm "eNTj" (extroverted intuitive thinking judging). So how come I'm not rich or famous or infamous like some other eNTj's - Bill Gates, Margaret Thatcher, Alan Greenspan, Napolean? LOL!

Love,
Carole

Jean,

It means you're an idealist and a champion. :thumbsup:


Carrie,

LOL. I seem to have the same problem. I'm a different personality type, but I apparently havn't lived up to the potential of so many others in that category. Oh well, it's been fun anyway. LOL.

Love,
Wayne

I used to wonder if personality type had anything to do with MC. Then I met all of you/us. I don't believe it is a factor. IMHO.
