"How are you wired?" Part 1 is knowing about your personality type and how it affects your decision making process. I have all my clients who I work with in the series, "The 90 Day Challenge", go to the website: http://www.mypersonality.info.
Once you log on to the website, look at the upper left side quadrant. You should see "Personality Types" and "Take the Test". Click "Take the Test". You will then come up to a screen: Personality Type - Discover Your Type.
Toward your right, you will see "Personality Types: Take the Test". Click this tab and it will ask you to create an account. Go ahead and create an account and you will have the option to access your account for further reference.
The test should take no longer than 20 minutes. When you finish you will get your results you need to help you determine your personality type.
Let me share what I have found out about me. I am INTP - The "Engineer".INTPs are logical, individualistic, reserved, and very curious individuals. They focus on ideas, theories, and explanations of how things work. They are especially adept at discussions and debate. They have the ability to focus intently on a subject. They appreciate and respect intelligence in others. You can describe an INTP as a thinker. They have a system building approach to their work.
Below you will see my test results. You can see that I am 100% Introverted, 89% Intuition, 74% Thinker, and 89% Perceiver. If you want an explanation of my results, go to my earlier post,
"Want More Sales, Know your Personality Type!" Click this link: http://bit.ly/5h6Fbd+.
Knowing your personality type specifically lets you know you not only how you are wired, but lets you know how your personality affects your decisions of the past and how you can make better decisions in the future.
Going forward with this information allows the business owner to know which part of his personality is helping in his business and which parts of his personality is not helping him.
The next post will be "How are you wired?" Part II. Part 2 is knowing your strengths and how to use it effectively all the time in business.

I love it. Ah...the Thinker..
"INTPs live in the world of theoretical possibilities. They see everything in terms of how it could be improved, or what it could be turned into!"
"They approach problems and theories with enthusiasm and skepticism, ignoring existing rules and opinions and defining their own approach to the resolution. They seek patterns and logical explanations for anything that interests them. They're usually extremely bright, and able to be objectively critical in their analysis. They love new ideas, and become very excited over abstractions and theories. They love to discuss these concepts with others."
Thank you for sharing your ideas, thought and problem solving abilities with us!

Jan,
I thank you for posting a comment on my blog. I owe it to you. If you did not give that book, I believe I would not be able to write a post like this and know how I am wired. I thank you and appreciate you.
Sincerely,
Arnel Tanyag
