Celebrity Typing!! and the Four Main Temperaments

Hey, all.

Believe it or not, interest in the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is not only reserved for a special breed of nerd. Many celebrities have taken the test, or have been typed by enthusiasts such as me based on their behavior. Here I will list a few celebrities or historical figures who have been identified as each type. I will also link to a description of each sequence to help y'all further understand how each respective personality behaves. Who knows, you may have the same personality type as your favorite famous person! In addition, I will describe the four main temperaments below to give you a better understanding on how these different types behave.

Hopefully looking at famous examples of each type will give you a slight idea of how each of them behave. To help you understand even further, I will outline each of the four temperaments (which are based on two of the letters in each type) below.

SJ - THE GUARDIANS
The Guardians include the ESTJ, ISTJ, ESFJ, and ISFJ sequences, Guardians delight in order. They love sticking to what they know, and revel in family traditions and routine, I'm not saying that these guys never like trying anything new, but they just prefer everything the way that it always is, if you know what I mean, Because of this, Guardians are, above and beyond, the most organized of the four temperaments.

SP - THE ARTISANS
Artisans include ESTPs, ESFPs, ISTPs, and ISFPs. These types live to experience the world around them.They are usually the most accomplished athletes and performers. Have you ever known someone who seemed to party all the time, always living in the present? They are mostly likely an SP. While Artisans undoubtedly have a lot of fun, they sometimes can get forget out future plans or goals due to being too caught up in the here and now,

NT - THE RATIONALS
You probably get the pattern by now, but Rationals include ENTPs, INTPs, ENTJs, and INTJs. The main goal of an NT is to seek knowledge. There is nobody more inquisitive, more interested in seemingly useless bits of info than your typical Rational. NTs are also very skeptical, and don't take part in traditions or beliefs unless there is a sufficient logical reason behind it.

NF - THE IDEALISTS
NFs include ENFPs, INFPs, ENFJs, and INFJs. Idealists are easily the most personable type. They live to interact with other people and gauge their development and growth. That friend that is always wanting to talk about your feelings and always helping others? Most likely an NF. Idealists also are very in-tune with their own identities. They have morals and principles that they will stick to no matter what, and don't let many people challenge this identity.

Thanks for reading the second installment of this passion blog. I guarantee that, with the understanding of this seemingly unimportant personality test, one can better understand themselves as well as everyone else. As an ENTP, I like to analyze literally everything I come into contact with, so researching this type indicator helped keep my mind occupied by letting me analyze everybody's personalities into oblivion. Wooooooooo fun
