Apropos of resilience,

What About Clients –> Geeklawyer –> I/P Updates post on the lawyer personality. It turns out that most of us are INTJ according to the Myers-Briggs Inventory.

I’m eNFj. Fifteen years ago I was ENTP.

What are you?

    I thought I was different than your typical lawyer, but it turns out I’m an INFJ and also the polar opposite of my wife who uses this test frequently in her job as a management trainer.

    Ain’t no sense in talking to me; it’s just the same as talking to you.

    I’m an eNFJ as well. I went through one of these tests during interviewing with a Fortune 500 firm out of college. Never got to see the results though.
    But what’s a typical lawyer anyway? I’m tempted to believe any of the lawyers we care to remember, for better or for worse, are not the typical ones.

    Interesting. I appear to be an ISTJ.

    I’m an INFJ currently, and I think I’ve finally grown into it more. I used to always end up in the middle of everything making me mostly nothing. As much as I’d like to be an INTJ and people would usually assume I am one, I’m too much of a softy these days.

    Thanks, all, for your comments. I’ve been reading the personalitypage.com descriptions of your personalities. David and Maggie are “protectors.” Shannon, Scott, and I are “givers.” Shawn is a “duty fulfiller.

    Do you see yourself in the personalitypage description of your type?

    Your true brain type (INFJ, INTJ, etc) is biological and never changes. See braintypes.com

    Anon,

    15 years ago I was 22. My brain wasn’t finished cooking yet.
