Keirsey Temperament

” Temperament is a configuration of observable personality traits, such as habits of communication, patterns of action, and sets of characteristic attitudes, values, and talents” (Keirsey). Everybody in the world has their own personality traits, after taking the Keirsey temperament I discovered what my personality traits are, and it even broke it down for me. My test results are introverted, sensor, feeler, judgers (ISFJ) each person has their own test results that describe them, but these are made just for me.
To begin with, the first letter of ISFJ is introverted which can be defined as” inwardly directly in their emotional focus, concentrating more on their own thoughts and ideas than on external stimuli” (My Personality Report). Introverted describes me perfectly as a person I focus on myself instead of other people around me. I do not really care what other people have to say and sometimes I just do not like being around other people. It is not because I do not like socializing with other people it just drains me unlike extroverts that get energy from talking to other people around them. A good example of this is when I am at work and some random co-worker come to visit me and starts a conversation with at first, I do not mind talking but after a couple minutes it bothers me, and

I cannot wait for the conversation to be over.
My next, word is sensor it can be defined as” focusing on practical matter and dealing with real-world problems and managing details (My Personality Report).” Ever since I can remember I have been a practical person everything I do in life has to be practical like my goals in life.

If people were to compare my goals to an Intuitive person, there would be a huge difference. My goals must be realistic and achievable my head is never in the clouds when it comes to life. I prefer things that can be experienced on my own rather than hearing or reading about it from someone else. Being a sensor is great because I can pay attention to detail when it comes to school and my work

environment.
Additionally, feeler is another word that describes my personality traits it can be described as someone who is more focused on their heart than their head. This word describes me perfectly whether I am at home or at work. My job goes against my personality I must take things away from people if they do not have the proper wristband. My heart makes me feel bad, so a lot of the times I let people get away with things instead of enforcing the rules. I do not use my head when it comes to certain situations like when someone tells me a sad story I automatically feel bad for them and do not use my head; they end up getting away with a lot of things because I felt bad for them.
Finally, the last word that because describes me is judger because I “appreciate decisiveness, planning, punctuality, order, tidiness, organization, schedules, security, and control (My Personality Report).” I need things to always be in order when I am doing something a good example of this is when I am at work I make sure my area is organized and clean. Unlike my other employees that are the opposite of me which bothers me. Part of my weakness of being a judger is that I can be a control freak I always want to control thing and make sure everything is in its place.
To conclude, Keirsey Temperament is a test that allows people to figure out who they are in depth. After taking the test, I learned my main four personality types which are introverted, sensor, feeler, and judger. Each of these describes me perfect and are used in my life every day. The Keirsey Temperament helped me discover who I really am because a lot of the times people do not think about their personalities.
