As fellow Advocate personality type Martin Luther King Jr. said, “An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.” Strong willed and determined to help others to succeed, advocates make up less than one percent of the total population. Though this may be, I will still leave a mark on the world, being both insightful and idealistic. Collectively, my personality comes with a number of strengths such as creativity and determination; however, there are many challenges that I will have to overcome as I gain my independence and enter the adult world. First and foremost, one particular challenge that follows the advocate personality type that I feel will hinder me in gaining independence, is an over aversion to be extremely private and introverted. For example, when I first came to Tipton Rosemark Academy during sixth grade, I found it very hard to make friends because I didn’t want to open up to anyone. This hindered me from finding friends for a length of time because I wanted to make sure I could trust people before I actually opened up to them. Moreover, I do not enjoy going to certain social events because I will have to converse with people I do not know well. A number of months ago, my mother was in charge of planning a wedding and I did not wish to go with her as I did not want to be around people I did not know. I am wary this will interfere with me becoming independent as there will be times I will have to talk to people I may not be acquainted with in college and career. Furthermore, I personally detest being made to present things in front of a group of people or peers. A couple of years ago, we were made to present a project on poetry and I found it terribly uncomfortable as I become anxious in doing things that expose me to the opinions of others. I feel this will undoubtedly become a problem when trying to gain independence. I have to learn there are going to be times when I am going to have to speak in front of people and interact with them on a personal level. All in all, I must learn to come out of my shell more and communicate more effectively. This will take work, but I know that I can do
After completing the Myers Briggs personality test online, I discovered that my personality type is known as the ‘Defender.’ My personality type is introverted, meaning I enjoy doing activities on my own, and too much social interaction can become exhausting for me. I am fairly observant as opposed to intuitive, meaning I am practical and down to earth, and I have strong habits. I am more of a feeling individual rather than thinking. As a ‘Defender’ I am sensitive, and I express my emotions; I am empathetic and not highly competitive. I am decisive, thorough, and organized, with high score in the judging category. I am not very assertive, but rather more turbulent, meaning I can be self conscious and sensitive to stress, success driven and eager to improve.
I agree with this, I confront my issues at hand. Organization is common in this paper, with it being in my personality assessment as well. I follow the rules, and attempt to reach my aspirations in a timely manner of doing so in a precise way. I am quite sociable, I have found this to be an excellent personality trait to have. By getting along with everyone in my surroundings, and being able to create conversations, this has positively impacted the choices I have made by others influences and opinions.

Hello Classmates- The results of my assessment show that my personality type is an ISFJ, Introvered, Sensing, Feeling, Judging. So as in Introverter my main souce of energy is mainly in my own internal world. As a Sensor I believe information received directly from the external world. Feeling means that, I make decisions based on emotion. And Judging means that I organize my life and stick to a plan. Characterized above all by my desire to serve others, in a "need to be needed" way. I am often unappreciated, at work, at home, and play. I also prove over and over again that I can be relied on for loyalty and high quality work, but am also take for granted. Because of this I am horrible at delegate and would rather "do it myself if I want it done right." Although I might be treated like a doormat, I am unwilling to toot my own horn about my accomplishments because I feel that I believe credit is due, its somehow wrong to want some sort of acknowledgement or any sort of reward for doing my work.

Prior to this survey it has always been clear on my weaknesses and my strengths pursuing a career as a therapist. I am a very sensitive person, particularly when it comes to people being violated. Often when people are emotional around me, especially telling me something that they are going through, I tend to cry with them or get as emotional with them. I don’t know how I will be able to sit and talk with a person if they are telling me about being raped, kidnapped or beaten. I know that I can overcome this because in the past I have been put in situations where people have come to me about matters such as being raped or seeing

I believe that advocates are created through the experiences one goes through. Being impacted by the horrors of domestic violence and raised by predominantly women I became a feminist. Witnesses the institutionalized racism, prejudice, and bullying towards low-income people, immigrants, and African Americans—I became a strong advocate for immigration reform and black empowerment. Living with a younger brother with autism empowered me to be a discerner of autism awareness. I am also an advocate for teens within the LGBTQ community because of the constant hate and bullying they must endure by not only their peers but also their family members. Empathy has molded me to be curious in studying Philosophy, Financial Economics, and Human rights. Philosophy

The most accurate description is that I’m only marginal (3%) introvert, which means, I can have more characteristics that apply in my world. I usually don’t volunteer to stand up and give a presentation, however, if asked to; I’m comfortable with doing so as long as I have time to prepare. I do find myself as one who prefers to be quieter while working. I enjoy pursuing perfection in all my work and tend to come across sometimes as over confident. At the same time, I am happy to share the glory of hard and success with others, and try to be as fair minded as possible. I do demonstrate an intuiting trait often. For example, I like
