Article: When you know what type you are, you can begin to understand how you might fit into the world around you. If you're an INTJ and you're a salesman, you might be rethinking your line of work! There are plenty of everyday uses for this test.  Consider it when you're learning. How do you take in and perceive facts and concepts? Consider it in your relationships. How do you mix with other personality types? Consider it for personal growth. Knowing your tendencies is the only way you can recognize them and begin branching out. Or harnessing your power! No single personality type is superior to another. The MBTI seeks to identify natural preferences, not abilities. When determining your type, look at it from the perspective of what you tend to do, not what you think you should do. Recognizing your own preferences is a useful tool in self-development. This is a fascinating concept -- quite clearly a trendy, fascinating concept: millions of people take it every year. So get to asking your friends! It may even help you relate to each other. An ESFJ and an INTP might make for an interesting conversation when it comes to personality type. Find people who are different than you and sit down to talk about the test. And find someone who is the same -- did you know you were the same or were you surprised? Sometimes it's hard to tell. If you're unhappy with your results, don't sweat it. This is a very prominent test, yes, but there is so much more to you than your MBTI results. It's like saying, "Oh. You're an Aquarius, huh? You'll never be punctual and caring!" No. It doesn't work like that. And in fact, your results may fluctuate throughout your life. That's partly because your environment determines a lot about you. So take the test now and revisit it again in a few years! You may have flip-flopped on a tendency or two.

Put your type to action. Understand that no one preference is better than another. Ask others about their type. Know that it's not the end-all be-all.
