They are born theorists.

The MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) is a forced-choice, self-reporting personality assessment test that measures and describes people's psychological patterns and temperament types in terms of how they gather information, make decisions, and approach life. It was developed by the American psychologist Katherine Cook Briggs (1875-1968) and her psychologist daughter Isabel Briggs Myers based on the psychological type theory of the renowned Swiss psychoanalyst Carl G. Jung and their long-term observations and research into human personality differences. After more than 50 years of research and development, the MBTI has become one of the most famous and authoritative personality tests in the world today.

**My Test Result:**

(I think this test is quite accurate, especially with the color-coded annotations.)

Personality Type: "INTJ" (Introverted + Intuitive + Thinking + Judging)

Individuals with the INTJ personality type possess innovative ideas and extraordinary motivation when it comes to realizing their ideas and achieving their goals. They can quickly perceive patterns in external events and develop long-term strategic plans. Once they decide to do something, they will begin planning and continue until completion. They are skeptical, independent, and have extremely high standards for both themselves and others.

INTJs are perfectionists. They strongly demand personal freedom and competence, and an unwavering belief in their original thoughts drives them to achieve their goals.

INTJs are rigorous, logical thinkers, and highly strategic. They can foresee the outcomes of new plans after implementation. They are demanding of both themselves and others, often imposing their will almost as stubbornly on others as on themselves. They are not easily disturbed by indifference or criticism, being among the most independent of all personality types, preferring to act in their own way. In the face of opposing opinions, they tend to be skeptical and very firm and resolute. Authority alone cannot compel them; they will only follow rules if they believe these rules align with their greater purposes.

INTJs are natural strategists, possessing unique, profound foresight and vision. They excel in theoretical thinking and handle complex, integrated concepts with ease. They are excellent strategic thinkers who can clearly see the strengths and weaknesses in any situation. For issues they are interested in, they are outstanding organizers with foresight and insight. If they personally form the ideas and plans, they will invest unimaginable attention, energy, and enthusiasm. Their determination and perseverance to reach or exceed their high standards lead them to many achievements.
