It’s a Tough World These Days… Financial stress causes relationship stress that causes missed communication and real problems: Family breakups, Kids acting out, Lost jobs, Money problems, and the list goes on  in a downward spiral…

Personality Type— to the Rescue!

As a well known, turn of the century industrialist put it,

“I will pay more for the ability to deal with people than for any other ability under the sun.”

He obviously saw a need for understanding personality style and the “natural chemistry between people” which cannot be ignored. There are other people who are not like you, and the more you know about their personality styles (Types), the better equipped your are to communicate effectively… Thus getting at the root of the problem.

If you don’t know, start here.

We call it “Personality Style.” all people are different, but some are more different than others (from each other). And some have a lot in common. You know that. Type is a way of understanding the patterns of out personal makeup. Jung’s theory saya that apparently random human differences are in fact the logical result of our (probably inborn) preferences on a few observable dimensions, such as how we prefer to focus our energy (Extraversion or Introversion); how we prefer to get our information (with our 5 Senses, or our 6th sense, iNtuition); and how we prefer to make our decisions (objectively, with logic as the criterion (“Thinking”), or subjectively, using our personal values as the criteria (“Feeling”); and whether we more often relate to the world by getting more information—postponing decisions (Perceiving), or by a desire for getting decisions made—cutting off information flow (Judging). The fourth pair was added by Isabel Briggs Myers, who developed the MBTI® (Myers-Briggs type Indicator®), a well-validated pencil questionnaire to help determine people’s preferences on these 4 pairs of parameters).
