The Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator is a self-report inventory designed to identify a person's personality type, strengths, and preferences.
The questionnaire was developed by Isabel Myers and her mother Katherine Briggs based on their work with Carl Jung's theory of personality types.
Today, the MBTI inventory is one of the world's most widely used
psychological instruments.
Based on the answers to the questions on the inventory, people are identified as having one of 16 personality types.
The goal of the MBTI is to allow respondents to further explore and understand their own personalities including their likes, dislikes, strengths, weaknesses, possible career preferences, and compatibility with other people.
No one personality type is "best" or "better" than another.
It isn't a tool designed to look for dysfunction or abnormality. Instead, its goal is simply to help you learn more about yourself.
Myers and Briggs proposed that there were four key
dimensions that could be used to categorize people:
Introversion vs. Extraversion
Sensing vs. Intuition
Thinking vs. Feeling
Judging vs. Perceiving
Each of the four dimensions was described as a dichotomy,
or an either/or choice between two styles of being.
Myers and Briggs described this as a "preference" and proposed that any individual should be able to identify a preferred style on each of the four dimensions.
The sum of a person's four preferred styles becomes their personality type.

What is the meaning of the four letters in a personality type?
Each of the four letters in a personality type code stands for a preference in your style of THINKING or BEHAVING.
I/E: INTROVERSION OR EXTRAVERSION
The Introversion/Extraversion dimension describes how a person manages their ENERGY.
INTROVERTS are energized by spending quiet time alone or
with a small group.
They tend to be more reserved and thoughtful.
EXTRAVERT are energized by spending time with people and in busy, active surroundings.
They tend to be more expressive and outspoken.
S/N: SENSING OR INTUITION
The Sensing/Intuition dimension describes HOW an individual PROCESSES INFORMATION.
SENSORS focus on their FIVE SENSES and are interested in information they can directly see, hear, feel, and so on.
They tend to be hands-on learners and are often described as "PRACTICAL."
INTUITIVES focus on a more ABSTRACT level of thinking;
they are more interested in theories, patterns, and explanations.
They are often more concerned with the FUTURE than the present and are often described as "CREATIVE."
Most people cannot invent thing because they don't have the creative inside them.
T/F: THINKING OR FEELING
The Thinking/Feeling dimension describes how people MAKE DECISIONS.
THINKERS tend to make decisions with their HEADS;
they are interested in finding the most logical, reasonable choice.
FEELERS tend to make decisions with their HEARTS;
they are interested in how a decision will affect people,
and whether it fits in with their values.
J/P: JUDGING OR PERCEIVING
The Judging/Perceiving dimension describes how people APPROACH STRUCTURE in their lives.
JUDGES appreciate structure and order; they like things planned,
and dislike last-minute changes.
PERCEIVES appreciate flexibility and spontaneity; they like to leave things open so they can change their minds.
J means how you approach structure. you appreciate structure and order.
We are accepted in the beloved. You are accepted by Christ. He accepts us on one condition, if we believe in His Son, Jesus. God loves Jesus, accept Him and we are accepted because we accept Jesus Christ.
Love is acceptance.
