Reported Type == INFP Up until yesterday I have taken MBTI inventories a few times.  They have all been done without guidance from a person certified to do MBTI assesments.  I still remember that the first one I took told me I was an INTJ.  Since then, I have consistently tested as an INTP. Yesterday, I completed the MBTI instrument under the guidance of someone certified to administer it.  The results came back.  According to this assesment, I am an INTP.  This is very interesting and I'm working on reading up on this type and whether this assesment makes sense to me.

AYE Day 2 Sitting in my hotel room with all the windows open, writing this entry while eating some pistacio nuts... Today's morning session for me was Satir coaching.  I won't describe the session itself - the actual content of the session can't be appropriately described by me in a weblog.  You really have to be there.  I will say the the experience for me this year was a lot less intense than last year.  I think this is a sign of progress for me but there's a part of me that prefers the dramatic, wrenching previous experience.  Letting go of that longing will be another sign of progress for me. The afternoon session was on how to do a diagram of effects.  I didn't think that what I did in that session was too effective which, if I recall from past conferences of this type, means that there's some substantial learning that took place.  I just need some time to process the experience. One other thought before closing:  I am having a strong feeling at this AYE conference that I am becoming a better listener.  I wonder if people I'm attending with notice this. 4:19:42 PM    comment []
