Since there is usually quite a bit of unplanned time wrapped up into these types of family visits, I decided to share the http://www.mypersonality.info site with everyone. Most everyone present took the test (Scot, you will have to take it now since you are the only sibling that hasn't participated) and here are the results:
- Dad - ENTP
- Mom - INFJ
- Rebecca - INTJ
- John - ISTJ
- RaeLyn - ISFJ
- Renaye - ENFJ
- RaeAnna - INFJ
- Chris - ENFP
- Jessica - ENFJ
- Craig - ISTJ
- Amber - ENFJ
- Scot -
- Brett - ENFP
Even one of the nephews (10 years old) wanted to take the test. I guess my grandfather had often talked about how young children should take personality tests and get them started in areas of interest at a young age. It sounds like an interesting idea - as long as it was combined with the freedom to switch to something else if the pursuit ended up in less interest. When you think about it, the education system is very successful at implementing the learning methods of an outdated society. Books like the World is Flat, Microtrends and Wikinomics have continued to interest me because they talk about this change from the industrial to the knowledge worker era, but I haven't figured out a good solution to help this change take place. I guess it's not all on me, but it would be a meaningful contribution to society.
As a side note, it's also good to have a background activity (like the personality test activity) going on while in the company of family members. It provides meaningful topics of conversation to turn to when hot topics arise, advice starts to run rampant and when an uncomfortable moment occurs.
