People have multiple personalities

It was great taking this personality test; knowing what kind of a person you are helps a lot, in my opinion. I wholeheartedly agree with the Cs evaluation of my personality. But, I would be lying if I said I was not expecting a S-type result.

Although I agree with the result, I do believe the test does not truly gauge your personality; like any other psychological evaluation, it merely gives you a time-specific evaluation of your frame of mind. For example: If you were having a particularly bad day, or were having self-esteem issues, taking the test on that day will reflect your negative attitude. The same goes for the flip-side of the argument: If you achieved something meaningful before the test, the test will reflect that positivity as well.

Also, it depends on what mindset you are applying this test towards. For example: With the test applied to a workspace oriented mindset, you may have a tendency to be more analytic with your actions. But at the same time, you maybe the leader amongst your group of friends and if you applied the test with the same mindset you have amongst your friends the leadership qualities would reflect that.

Maybe if you mixed and matched various mindsets you would get a more accurate evaluation of your personality. But what do I know? I am not a psychologist!

I don't really remember what mindset I was in, but the test really did evaluate me correctly. As you may be able to see just from this blog, I have a tendency to analyze things from different perspectives. A true Cs...and proud of it!
