In this episode, Bad at Sports welcomes artist, writer, and thinker Emma Bergman to discuss a range of fascinating topics that blend the personal, the theoretical, and the speculative. We delve into Emma's ideas about utopian conviction and how they intersect with the looming specter of the coming apocalypse, and the games we can play with what is becoming our practical nightmare. From philosophical musings to creative solutions, we explore how different utopian ideologies might intersect and prepare (or fail to prepare) us for the crisis of our future. Personality testing also enters the conversation, as we examine how modern and historical approaches to assessing character and behavior might offer insights—or generate traps—for individuals navigating this new world order and Berman runs the boys of B@S though her system and we learn if they are ready. We also explore the concept of bureaucratic realism, digging into how institutional structures shape our experience and sense of agency in the world, and how to creatively play within these constraints and out side them can establish new paths forward. Throughout this conversation, we playfully touch on ways to solve the future—how art, culture, and speculative thinking offer new ways of envisioning what lies ahead, and how individuals can act within systems and system collapse. Join us for a thought-provoking episode filled with visionary ideas, humor, and practical philosophical discussions. Live for the 21C Chicago!

After decades of using personality tools to support assessment for recruitment, succession, development and coaching, in this podcast we are debating the pros and cons of a personality versus strengths approach to assessment. We look at the various personality questionnaires developed since the work of Eysenck, Cattell and Jung, and the role personality has played in helping us understand individual differences. We then look at the move away from personality towards strengths and the benefit of taking a strengths versus personality approach. Finally we look at emotional intelligence, and the state - trait continuum. In this episode, the Chief Psychology Officer, Dr Amanda Potter, is being interviewed by Angela Malik.The Chief Psychology Officer episodes are available here https://www.thecpo.co.uk/To follow Zircon on LinkedIn and to be first to hear about podcasts, publications and news, please like and follow us: https://www.linkedin.com/company/zircon-consulting-ltd/To access the research white papers mentioned in this and other podcasts, please go to: https://zircon-mc.co.uk/zircon-white-papers.phpFor more information about the BeTalent Strengths questionnaires mentioned in this podcast please contact Amanda via email: TheCPO@zircon-mc.co.uk.TimestampsStrengths Vs.

If you've recently applied for a job, you may have been asked to fill out a personality test. From banks and consultancy firms to fast-food outlets, they're increasingly being used as a way to improve efficiency and perceived fairness in recruitment.The most common tests used for these purposes are based on the so-called 'big 5' personality traits that psychologists have settled on as providing a good indication of just what makes us tick. Such personality tests take the form of a questionnaire in which the participant indicates their alignment with statements concerning human behaviour,... Like this podcast?

"Is it a higher compliment to be called a) a person of real feeling, or b) a consistently reasonable person?" "Are you more successful at a) following a carefully worked-out plan, or b) dealing with the unexpected and seeing quickly what should have been done?" "Which word in each pair appeals to you more? a) scheduled, or b) unplanned?" Questions like these are posed to millions of current and prospective workers and students every year. They come from personality tests, whether the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, Clifton StrengthsFinder, or other surveys purporting to assess personality traits and job aptitude. Through a series of tens to hundreds of questions, personality inventories claim to identify qualities like dominance, neuroticism, or introversion, synthesize a user profile, and determine that user's fitness for a given job. But beneath this ostensibly neutral goal of matching a person with their ideal form of employment lies a much more sinister aim: Identifying and weeding out would-be dissenters, labor organizers, and union sympathizers. Additionally, studies have shown repeatedly that commercial personality tests like the commonly used Myers-Briggs have little to no scientific value. Why, then, does their use continue–with anywhere from 60 to 80% of prospective workers taking a personality test–and given their anti-labor history, what harms do they pose? On this episode, we examine the history of personality testing used in military, educational, and corporate settings; the relationship between personality assessments, labor law, and the corporate consultancy class; how personality testing threatens the livelihoods of people based on race, disability, and other factors; and media's role in laundering tests as benign instruments of self-realization. Our guest is writer Liza Featherstone.
Bonus EpisodeLeveling Up Your Emotional IntelligenceWelcome back! We are happy that you have tuned in to the Undeniable Level Up Podcast with your hosts, Jose Medina and Crystal Garcia. This bonus episode will help you level up your emotional intelligence. Understanding personalities and how they differ is paramount to increasing your emotional intelligence. Just like us, we know that you have experienced interactions where you were left feeling confused by the other individual's reaction to you or maybe even the situation itself. Prepare to be enlightened today! Emotional intelligence is key to leading successfully and even living successfully. According to Travis Bradberry, “Emotional intelligence is your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others, and your ability to use this awareness to manage your behavior and relationships.” Q: What are your thoughts on this description of emotional intelligence? Though this description is accurate it's missing the inclusion of how personality plays into this. Personality is the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distinctive character. Part of being emotionally intelligent is understanding the individual's response(s) in relationship to their personality. Q: What are your thoughts on the importance of personality in being emotionally intelligent? Well for starters there is a misconception that being emotionally intelligent is strictly about reading emotions and it's not. An individual's personality determines not only how but why they will respond in various ways. If you know and understand personality differences at the most basic level, you can increase your emotional intelligence immediately. This increase in your emotional intelligence allows you to confront interactions almost like you have received a full brief prior to that interaction. Q: So what are the different personalities? I am sure most people are aware that there are a multitude of personality tests and styles. However for the purposes of this podcast , we are going to utilize the easiest and most basic personality identification model DISC. Each letter of the DISC model signifies one of the four personality types. D (Dominant) – RedI (Influential) – YellowS (Steady) – GreenC (Conscientious) – Blue So, we are going to break down each personality. As we do this, think about what personality you are. Think about the personalities of those you interact with. We will start this off with what I refer to as a, “red.” The D or dominant personality trait. Famous people with this personality are Arnold Schwarzenegger and Oprah Winfrey▪ Communication Method - Direct ▪ Emotional Intelligence – High (they are able to recognize and draw out potential in others)▪ Valueo Achievement – achieve results and are competitiveo Action – take action quicko Control – they will take charge▪ Their Driveo Desire to Wino Doing Something Meaningfulo Goal Orientation▪ Their Motivatorso Challenges – solving problemso Implementations/Changes – Implementing new things, adapting to changes▪ Challengeso Aggressive – They can be aggressiveo Details – They do not like details, they see them as unnecessaryo Pushy – they can seem pushy because they do not give up and believe there is a way around anythingo Sensitivity – due to their value in action and achievement they can come off as being insensitiveo Type “A” – like to take credit and may come off as “know it alls” Connecting with a red requires for you to:▪ Allow them to make their own decisions▪ Ask them if you want insight into their decisions, they will tell you▪ Promote competition▪ Recognize them in front of others▪ Utilize BLUF (bottom line up front) when communicating with them “Meat & Potatoes” The I or Influential personality is what we will refer to as a yellow. Famous people with this personality are Kevin Hart and Robin Williams.▪ Communication Method – Passive (tends to avoid conflict)▪ Emotional Intelligence – Low (they connect and build relationships easily)▪ Valueo Attention – they are energized by people and love attentiono Connection – they like to connect to many peopleo Image – they dress to be noticed and care about their image▪ Their Driveo Connecting with otherso Image▪ Their Motivatorso Connection – they are moved by personal storieso Fun & Happiness – they like things fun, when its not fun they get boredo Social Recognition – they love social recognition▪ Challengeso Attention – they have a short attention spano Avoidance – they avoid pain rather its physical or emotionalo Boredom – they bore easily and quicklyo Follow Through – if its boring or no longer interesting they will stop doing it Connecting with a yellow requires for you to:▪ Be enthusiastic when you communicate new things▪ Follow-up with them▪ Make things fun when possible▪ Reward them▪ Support them▪ Tie changes to image The S or Steady personality is what we will refer to as a green. Famous people with this personality are Nelson Mandela and Julia Roberts.▪ Communication Methodo Passive (w/ passive aggressive tendencies)o Calm (avoids conflict)▪ Emotional Intelligence – Low (they require clear and concise information and guidance)▪ Valueo Collaboration – they like working in groupso Formal Roles – they like formal roles in activitieso Support – they like to both give and receive support▪ Their Driveo Desire to “help”o Desire to make a difference▪ Their Motivatorso Appreciation for “help”o Given the opportunity to help make a difference▪ Challengeso Blame – they often blame other for their situationo Change – they do not like changeo Collaboration – they are reluctant to share without total comforto Decision Making – they do not take sides (they like to make everyone happy)o Emotional Intelligence – they often misread what is said or doneo Emotions – they respond and lead emotionallyo Focus – they can't handle numerous taskso Motivators – they will not take responsibility for others motivatorso Time Management – they take their time with tasks; often unorganized Connecting with a green requires for you to:▪ Encourage them / to complete projects▪ Help them explore ways to save energy, time, and money▪ Question them to gain insight into what they need▪ Show them appreciation for their contributions▪ Show them the necessity for change▪ When faced with decisions, ensure they understand the responsibility is theirs The C or Conscientious personality is what we will refer to as a blue. Famous people with this personality are Steve Jobs and Warren Buffet.▪ Communication Methodo Passive (avoids conflict)▪ Emotional Intelligence – Low (they enjoy one on one conversations)▪ Valueo Facts & Standards – they don't like information without facts and they like standardso Genuine & Meaningful Connection – they are very selective with who they befriendo Loyalty – they are loyal and expect loyalty in returno One on One Conversations – they do not like big parties and being in the spotlighto Solitude – they are energized by working and being alone▪ Their Driveo Solitude▪ Their Motivatorso Loyaltyo Solitude – they like to be aloneo Solving Problems▪ Challengeso Constructive Criticism – they do not take constructive criticism wello Forgiveness – they can be unforgiving because of their value in loyaltyo Private – they prefer to keep their lives private, so this may be hard for people to understando Sensitive – they can be easily hurto Solitude – they are prone to depression because of their desire for solitude Connecting with a blue requires for you to:▪ Follow through with you piece of the puzzle▪ Give them a plan of action▪ Give them time to make decisions▪ Provide them data when you want to implement change▪ Provide facts▪ Recognize them privately Q: So now that we have shared each personality type, what do you think we can do to leverage this information to increase our emotional intelligence? If you know and understand your own personality and those with whom you interact, you can leverage that in how you communicate to connect and motivate. Q: Have you leveraged this information to increase your emotional intelligence and if so how? Q: Do you know your personality Crystal and if so, what can you tell us about it?Yes. I am a Red, Blue, Green, Yellow. My red and blue are very close to one another though my red is a little higher. My green is a bit lower but still very much a part of my personality. Now yellow, is almost non-existent, LOL! With information, I am a BLUF or meat and potatoes person, but I also want data. I can make hard decisions based on data and quickly. If you are not meeting the mark, I'll be direct. Q: So what can our listeners do to identify their own personality and those with whom they work? We have provided a DISC personality assessment in the show notes. Most theorists say claim that your EQ (like your IQ) measures how well you can leverage this information in handling your emotions in yourself and others. Victor E. Franel says, "Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space lies our freedom and power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom.” CTAWe challenge all of our listeners to utilize this information in their daily lives and see how much their interactions change for the better.DISC Model Personality Test Link ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

With automation changing the nature of work before our very eyes, it is more important than ever that we begin to re-think our approach to education, the workforce, and yes, even thinking itself. In this episode of Hardly Working, Brent is joined by journalist and acclaimed science writer Annie Murphy Paul to discuss how we can tap into our bodies, surroundings, and other people to think better in an increasingly complex economy and society. We discuss some of the insights from Murphy's latest book The Extended Mind, including why thinking of the brain as a computer is problematic, the inherently social aspect of learning, and how to shape a world that works for the kind of thinking our brains evolved to do.

When Isabel Briggs Myers imagined that her homegrown personality test would change the world, she couldn't have pictured this. Today, millions take the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator each year. Countless organizations use it, from General Motors to the CIA. But there's one field that mostly rolls its eyes at the test: psychology. In our final chapter, Isabel rescues her indicator from the verge of extinction, but has to make some compromises. And we explore what the Myers Briggs does (and doesn't) measure, and why people love it despite psychologists' complaints. Listen to Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of this series.

At first, it seemed like Isabel Briggs Myers would have nothing to do with personality typology. That was her mother Katharine's passion project, not hers. But when Isabel enters a tumultuous marriage, she discovers that her mother's gospel of type might just be the thing to save it. In Chapter 2, Isabel picks up her mother's work, and decides to transform it into a marketable product—but first, she has to convince a group of skeptical PhDs that it actually works. Along the way, one particularly dogged researcher notices some issues with her indicator, threatening to undo everything she'd worked for. If you're new to the series, listen to Chapter 1.

If you're one of the 2 million people who take the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator every year, perhaps you thought Myers and Briggs are the two psychologists who designed the test. In reality, a mother-daughter team created the test essentially at their kitchen table. In this episode, we look at the unlikely origins of the Myers-Briggs, going all the way back to the late 1800s when Katharine Cook Briggs turned her living room into a “cosmic laboratory of baby training” and set out to raise the perfect child. In this three-part series, we uncover the strange history of the most popular personality test in the world, and how two women revolutionized personality testing—for better or for worse. Guest: Merve Emre is a writer and English professor at the University of Oxford.

Personlighetstesters tillförlitlighet jämförs horoskops. Ändå används de flitigt. Varför? Sociologen Emma Engdahl går tillbaka till det mest använda testet Myers-Briggs Type Indicator för att få svar. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Gratis personlighetstest. Det tar mindre än tolv minuter. Svara ärligt, även om du inte gillar svaret. Försök att inte vara neutral. Ok, tänker jag. Åtta minuter senare har jag svar på vilken personlighetstyp jag är: en förkämpe som kan förändra världen med bara en idé och bör hålla den lilla gnistan av galenskap vid liv. Det låter som reklam, som en person jag gärna skulle vara. Jag köper även efterföljande lista på bra och dåliga egenskaper. Jag är nyfiken, observant, energisk och entusiastisk. Och nog stämmer det att jag ofta överanalyserar, är känslig och har svårt att ta order. Ändå är det något som skaver. Jag har gjort samma test en gång tidigare och då var jag en debattör: kompromisslöst ärlig. Och det är jag nog också. Ibland. Det är allmänt känt att vissa uttalande är så pass vaga att vem som helst kan känna igen sig i dem. Fenomenet kallas Barnumuttalande efter den amerikanske cirkusdirektören P T Barnum, kungen av humbug, som på mitten av 1800-talet underhöll sin publik med menageri, freakshower och vaga uttalande om enskilda besökares personlighet och situation. Du har en oupptäckt potential. Du står inför ett svårt livsval. Detta kallas även Forer-effekt, efter psykologen Bertram Forer som på 1940-talet gav sina studenter samma horoskop och konstaterade att samtliga av dem kände igen sig i det. Att vem som helst kan känna igen sig i personlighetstestens typer gör att de kritiserats för att inte vara mer trovärdiga än just horoskop. Personlighetstestning används nu inte enbart som underhållning eller av privatpersoner som vill uppnå självkännedom. Det är ett vanligt verktyg i arbetslivet när det gäller rekrytering och konflikthantering, vilket kritikerna anser är ytterst vanskligt. Forskningen visar nämligen att det är de egenskaper vi har gemensamt, snarare än de egenskaper som skiljer oss åt, som skapar en god arbetsmiljö och får oss att lösa konflikter. Att dela in folk i olika typer är därmed inte att rekommendera. Det kan rentav vara förödande för människor som inte frivilligt uppsökt varandras sällskap. Naturligtvis kan man slå sig för pannan och förfasas över att folk är mindre begåvade och att samhället har spårat ur. Människans behov av att svara på frågor om vem hon är och hur hon bör leva sitt liv går dock långt tillbaka i mänsklighetens historia. I det antika Grekland ansågs det vara nödvändigt att lära känna sig själv för att kunna tolka utsagorna från oraklet i Delfi. Man ställde också upp regler för hur man borde leva sitt liv för att kunna pröva, förkovra sig och omvandla sig själv. Tillvägagångssättet har många likheter med hur Benjamin Franklin som ung man förde moralisk dagbok i syfte att förnuftsmässigt styra sitt beteende. Bland annat ville han uppnå måttlighet genom att inte äta så att han blev slö eller dricka så att han blev upprymd, ordning genom att låta alla sina saker ha bestämda platser och ödmjukhet genom att försöka likna Sokrates eller Jesus. Så vitt jag kan se, är det strävan efter att leva ett genomtänkt liv som ligger bakom utvecklingen av det mest använda personlighetstestet i världen: Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Testet är ett resultat av Katherine Cook Briggs och hennes dotter Isabel Briggs Myers utforskande av sina egna liv. I Merve Emres bok The Personality Brokers (2018) skildras deras livsöden. Katherine som föddes 1875 präglades av en inre kamp för att förena sin naturvetenskapliga utbildning med sin religiösa uppfostran. När hennes son Alfred dör i sömnen, endast ett år gammal, blir hon smärtsamt medveten om hur skör människan är under sina första levnadsår och hur noggrant ett litet barns aktiviteter måste regleras för att det ska kunna förfina sin personlighet och rädda sin själ. Hon inser då att det går att förena sökandet efter personlig frälsning med den moderna världens rationella metoder. När Katherine förlorar ytterligare en son, innan han ens hunnit döpas, slår hon slag i saken och gör om sitt vardagsrum till ett laboratorium för personlighetsforskning. Experimenten börjar med hennes förstfödda och enda överlevande barn, dottern Isabel som då är fyra år gammal. Laboratoriet döps till The cosmic laboratory for baby training och ganska snart är det fyllt av bekantskapskretsens barn som skall pröva, förkovra sig och omvandla sig själva. Grundtanken är att barn behöver ledas in på rätt bana i livet genom att lära dem hur de utifrån sin personlighet kan bidra till samhället. Barnen observeras och vägleds genom bestraffning och belöning. Allt bokförs noggrant och insikterna sprids i massmedierna. Katherines gärning, som ytterst handlade om att basera moderskapet på forskningsresultat och göra det till en profession, får stort genomslag. I samband med att Isabel lämnar hemmet för att studera får den experimentella verksamhet som under 18 år utgjort Katherines huvudintresse emellertid ett abrupt slut. Deprimerad skriver hon i ett brev till sin dotter som aldrig postas: Vem över fjorton år behöver egentligen en mamma, eller vem borde behöva en? När Katherine ett flertal år senare upptäcker Carl Gustav Jungs teori om psykologiska typer upphör hennes depression. Jung introducerar idén om att människor kan kategoriseras som introverta eller extroverta. Som tänkande eller kännande. Tankesättet fångar Katherines intresse till den grad att hon utnämner honom till sin husgud. För första gången på länge upplever hon att hennes liv har mål och mening. Hon brevväxlar med Jung och ägnar ett halvt decennium åt att sätta sig in i hans analytiska psykologi, innan hon slutligen besöker honom. Under tiden görs hennes hem återigen till ett laboratorium för personlighetsforskning, men denna gång är det vuxna människor som ska pröva, förkovra sig och omvandla sig själva. Resultatet av arbetet publiceras 1926 i artikeln Meet yourself: How to use the Personality Paint Box där Katherine lär läsarna att med hjälp av indexkort ta reda på vilken av Jungs sammanlagt sexton personlighetstyper de är och vad de bör göra i sina liv. Personlighetstestet är skapat! Det var emellertid Isabel som under 1940-talet omarbetade Katherines arbete så att det blev användbart inom arbetslivet och formulerade det frågeformulär som ligger till grund för Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Ett personlighetstest är en sammanställning av uttalanden om oss själva. Ovetenskapligt? Javisst. Falskt, vem vet? Sant? Ja, om vi vill och anstränger oss. Vår personlighet är nämligen föränderlig och styrs av hur vi själva, andra och samhället uppfattar oss. Det är därför vi ständigt söker efter strategier för att ta reda på vem vi är och vad vi bör göra i våra liv. Problemet är att den strategi vi väljer att använda oss av kommer att forma vårt framtida jag och våra livsmöjligheter. Om vi uppfattar den kunskap som personlighetstesten genererar som verklig, kommer den att bli verklig i sina konsekvenser. Att förstå sig själv och låta sig styras av ett standardiserat frågeformulär är därmed ytterst begränsande. Det är att bli snuvad på den gnutta frihet vi idag har att forma vårt eget öde.

If you were asked to describe your personality, you might choose words such as “funny” and “outgoing,” or “shy” and “quiet.” But what if those were not quite the right words? The Myers-Briggs - which many of us have taken - promises to assess your personality, and assign you a specific “type.” In her book, The Personality Brokers: The Strange History of Myers-Briggs and the birth of Personality Testing, Merve Emre examines the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (which is its full name), and how it has transformed the way we think about ourselves and those around us.
In this episode we talk about the MBTI-style personality testing and how it can be used as a tool of growth and self-development in all aspects of your lives. Topics discussed include: What the MBTI, or Meyers Briggs Type Indicator, is and what it tells us about ourselves. The 4 sets of 2 opposites that make up the 16 unique personality types. I go into introversion and extraversion, sensing and intuition, thinking and feeling, and judging and perceiving. Then we do a little guessing game to see if you can guess your personality type before you take the test. I dig into my own results and explain how I can use them to inform my future actions and decisions. I identified some of my blind spots that need work and I learned what types of work best suit my style. I also had my wife do an MBTI and I explained where our 2 personality types would run into some troubles and how to work around them and how to maximize our strengths to improve our relationship. I also explain how this podcast was affected and influenced by the various aspects of my personality. So using my own results and life experiences I explained how I would use this tool to self-actualize. And then we moved on to this week's Call-to-Action. This week we take a personality assessment on 16personalities.com. It only takes about 12 minutes and the report it gives you (for free) is extremely valuable and actionable. Thanks for listening.

Today on the show we're talking about typology and personality tests from the perspective of accessibility. How difficult is it to talk type and get into type? What are you doing to make these concepts simpler for the average to understand without having to learn an entirely new language? How can we better teach typology and lead people in the right direction? We play around with those ideas on this episode of Super Myers-Briggs Turbo EX.

Click here to link directly to the audio file.**********Not too long ago a friend of mine turned me onto the Enneagram (spelled ennagram) personality testing program. You can check it out for yourself by going to The Enneagram Institute online. Link to their website by going to the text of this podcast.https://www.enneagraminstitute.com/I have taken personality tests many times in my life. All of them have done a very average job at identifying a personality type that made any sense to me at all. This one nailed me in ways I find a bit unnerving. There are a lot of people who put way too much stock in these kinds of tests when it comes to who we are. I'm not one of those folks. With that said, this personality test really opened my eyes to some things I'd like to discuss as it relates to victor living. The Ennagram test helps you determine your personality type as it relates to the nine different personalities they consider. I'm a 6. This personality type is called the "Loyalist." Here's a description of the Loyalist as quoted from The Ennagram Institute web site mentioned earlier. "The committed, security-oriented type. Sixes are reliable, hard-working, responsible, and trustworthy. Excellent "troubleshooters," they foresee problems and foster cooperation, but can also become defensive, evasive, and anxious—running on stress while complaining about it. They can be cautious and indecisive, but also reactive, defiant and rebellious. They typically have problems with self-doubt and suspicion. At their Best: internally stable and self-reliant, courageously championing themselves and others."When I read this description of my personality type for the first time I was shocked. Those who know me know each and every descriptive term fits to a tee. Those that really know me now have an appreciation as to why I have exhibited the quirks in my life that don't seem to make sense at times. Like most personality traits, there is always a tension between opposing forces that can create behavior that is less than advantageous to living like the victor God calls us to be. What I find truly amazing about the Ennagram testing is that they are champions of being the best personality type you test out to be. They know that when we try to be something other than what our wiring dictates that short circuits happen in ways that cause damage to us and to those around us. It is when we know who we are that what we do takes on a meaning like never before. If I let the results of this testing be the end all/be all of who I am, I'm going to be just as victim thought driven as if I had never taken the Ennagram test. I'm not a Loyalist that is working to serve this God of mine. I'm a Child of the King's that happens to be wired to react to this world the way a Loyalist does. What God wants for me is to be the best Loyalist I possibly can be. I do that as I understand who God says I am and let my personality come into alignment with His definition of identity.One of the most amazing parts about the Ennagram testing information is their levels of development discussion. Not only are there nine personality types, there are also nine levels of development each type might find themselves in at any given moment. When we are performing at a level 1 we are living as fully as we can in the power of what I call victor living. When we are at level 9 we are being controlled by victim thinking in self damaging and victim causing ways. For my fellow Loyalists, here's a brief description of optimal performance and performance that causes damage to occur. Again, this was taken from The Ennagram Institute website. Level 1 (The Loyalist At Their Best): Become self-affirming, trusting of self and others, independent yet symbiotically interdependent and cooperative as an equal. Belief in self leads to true courage, positive thinking, leadership, and rich self-expression.Level 9: (The Loyalist At Their Worst) Hysterical, and seeking to escape punishment, they become self-destructive and suicidal. Alcoholism, drug overdoses, "skid row," self-abasing behavior. Generally corresponds to the Passive-Aggressive and Paranoid personality disorders.I can't tell you how many times I have found myself at level 9. That word hysterical is so real to me. So are so much of the other really harsh, scary and, frankly embarrassing descriptors. What I want to share with you today is that even when I'm performing at my worst, this isn't who God made me to be. This is what happens with we let the world dictate who we are for too long. Even when I'm stuck at this level of victim thinking, God still sees me as the best because of what Jesus did for me on the cross. It is when we come to that place of surrender to the amazing love God has for us that we are in a position where we can move up the scale when it comes to how our behavior reflects the kind of personality we have been given. I don't like me at a level 9. Others don't like me at that level either. Good news is that God loves me at whatever level I have allowed my life to emulate at that given time. That love He has for me makes me want to be the best Loyalist I possibly can be. I'm starting to see that the words used to describe Level 1 are more and more what my reality looks like. I'm not becoming a Level 1 because of a lot of hard work on self improvement. I'm becoming a better Loyalist because I'm starting to believe more in who made me to be in the first place. It is as I lean into who God says I am that my personality type reflects positively in the behavior the rest of the world comes into contact with in my life.Today's Bible reading holds the key to being the best victor you possibly can be. Let's read the scriptures now.May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you. May he strengthen your hearts so that you will be blameless and holy in the presence of our God and Father when our Lord Jesus comes with all his holy ones. 1 Thessalonians 3:12-13 (NIV)Love is the key for me to be the best Loyalist I possibly can be. I need to learn to love others and to learn how to love myself. I think I can do this as I let the fact that God loves me sink in to my soul more and more. It all starts with God's love. Where it ends is only limited by how much we want to live like the victor God made us to be.No matter what your personality type, no matter at what level of performance you live out that personality type, know this - God loves you! Take that with you into all that you do today. Let that fact be the driving force behind how you are wired to take on your day. It is then and only then that your personality comes alive in ways that make victim thinking a thing of the past.

James and Rick were studying at Harvard and they accidentally hit upon an "Personality Testing" idea. They were close to shutting it down, but they persisted. They sold the company for $90+ million. Let us check out how they did it
Companies use personality tests for a variety of purposes, such as employment screening, assessing leadership potential, fostering corroboration and teamwork, etc. The most widely used is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), created by Pennsylvania housewife Isabel Myers. This particular test is utilized by 89% of the Fortune 100, given to 2.5 million people each year to identify strengths and enhance teamwork. The Minnesota Multiphase Personality Inventory (MMPI) was developed in 1946 to sort mental patients into diagnostic categories. It was then expanded in an attempt to describe normal people. Of course, popularity does not imply validity. What is worse, most companies keep these tests confidential so the data cannot be tested to determine effectiveness. These tests are also popular among consultants, who are paid good money to administer them in a convivial atmosphere. Helpful or hokum? We will attempt to answer in this week's show.
