Amanda: This was very interesting after taking this four-letter personality type “ISTJ” stands for Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, and Judging. I learned the real definition of my personality. My personality type is often characterized by traits such as being practical, responsible, organized, and logical. I really enjoy and prefer to work in a structured environment and as well I am very reliable and attentive to detail.
My strength is always trying to make it perfect my weak is not getting it at my very first try I get discouraged when I don’t don’t get it on my first attempt
Zina:Hi everyone, My four-letter personality type is ISTJ. ISTJ includes introversion, sensing, thinking, and judging. Introversion is when you enjoy working at a careful and steady pace, thinking carefully about the assignments, and enjoying tasks that require concentration. Sensing is enjoying working with what you can see and touch, needing specific and realistic directions, and applying experience to solve issues. My third personality type is thinking instead of feeling. This is motivated by my achievements. Thinkers make fair and unbiased decisions and analyze problems logically. Lastly, my final personality trait is judging. This is when you enjoy work that allows you to make your own decisions, they prefer a predictable work pattern and environment and like to be in control. I enjoy being in control of my work and I always need realistic directions or otherwise, I cannot do my work.

Your Personality Profile
Quiet, realistic and practical, you communicate in a style that is clear, simple and direct. A careful observer, you
notice details that interest or relate to you and have a good memory for past experiences. You think things through
before sharing your insights and are cautious about change. Responsible and steady, you strive to do your best in
every situation.
Conscientious and logical, you like to make sensible decisions and keep things orderly and efficient. Organized and
productive, you have a great ability to concentrate and get things done. You set high standards for yourself and for
others, like to be judged on your merits, and are fair and consistent when dealing with other people. You take your
commitments seriously and prefer people who are genuine and reasonable.
You trust proven facts and experience and tend to be skeptical of untested ways. Patient and willing to wait, you may
miss opportunities if you hesitate too long. You may focus too intently on tiny details and lose sight of the larger
context or purpose.
When you can’t see a way out of a bad situation, you may become discouraged. A very private person, you’re
generally not inclined to share your feelings or reactions. You like to be prepared and tend to dislike surprises,
change and uncertainty.
You value order and stability and can be somewhat inflexible due to your strong sense of right and wrong. You may
insist that others conform to your way of doing things and resist trying other, less conventional, methods.
Because of your calm and cool exterior, you may appear indifferent to what’s going on around you. You don’t usually
share information about yourself or your views unless asked directly by people with whom you are comfortable.
