Drew, I'm glad you checked it out (and wrote a post about it: http://notes-from-offcenter.com/2009/12/09/type-ology/). I'm curious to hear your thoughts about the test itself—if you thought it was accurate, if you liked the way the results were presented, etc.

Beloved Spear, very amusing! The perspective of how we such helps if we can give ourselves a break and move toward something better when we don't like ourselves. What isn't so great is if we end up focusing on (and getting comfortable with) the bad.

Jeanne, so is 7 a popular type, or am I just drawn to friends like me? :)

Srinivas, thanks for stopping by! Yes, when you really understand your strengths, it's much easier to emphasize them and make the most of them.

Chris, I have taken the Myers-Briggs, but not since my early and mid twenties. I had sort of a distrust for it, because I was one type when I took it at work, and another type when I took it for pre-marital counseling. I don't remember it feeling scarily accurate, but I wasn't really in tune with myself then, like I am now. Did you try the Enneagram?
