Human beings enjoy categorizing things. Its helps our understanding between things or concepts that seems unrelated. As well as creating initial connections that built up relationships.

     
 Its no surprise that personality quizzes are so popular than. Although majority of them are inaccurate or some-what true at best. The Myers Briggs test however, as gained much popularity as an insightful and accurate characterization of human-beings. 

     Created by Isabel Briggs Myers and her mother Katherine. The test is based on the Carl Jung's psychological types, which categorize individuals into one of sixteen types. These types are four letter acronyms, divided on the different ways a person perceive or relates to the world around them.

     The four letter acronym can be defined as follow:

1. Introvert vs Extrovert: 

         The first acronym categorizes people either as introverts or extroverts. A misconception of introverts is that they are reserved or shy, but this is how they derive energy from their inner world, and needs to be alone to recharged. They may feel too much drained of energy if they spend too much time with others.
     
        Extroverts on the other hand are energized by talking with other people. Their energy comes from outer sources, not like introverts inner sources.

2.Intuition vs Sensing:

         Sensing types tend to pay attention to physical world around them. They notice facts, the practicality of things and trust experience heavily. 

        Intuitive types likes to work with the abstract. Pay more attention to meaning and cause. They are more interested in new possibilities or thinking about ideas than reality and hands on experience.

3. Thinking vs Feeling:

        This pair describes how people make decisions. Thinkers prefer to make decisions logically by being impersonal to outside influences. They look for logical explanations and then apply them to decision making, and believe that truth is more important than feelings. 

       In-contrast the feeling types people throw in their feelings and other people point of views into the mix while making a decision. They are concerned with harmony and how others will be affected, they lean more towards the feelings than hard cold truths. They like to approach decision making through compassion and heart.

4. Judging vs Perceiving: 

       Lastly these traits express your orientation towards the world, and what others tend to see. Judging types are commonly seen as orderly and live to have control over their lives through organization. They are seen as lists makers, tasks orientated, and are usually work before play type of people.

       Those who are perceiving types appear to be flexible and spontaneous. Instead of organizing their world, perceiving types looks like they want to adapt to it. Mixing work and play and keeping plans to a minimum.

      So, those are the four categorize of Myers Briggs personality types. An individual final type is made up of one of each of the categorize then combined.
