There are definitely parallels with horoscopes or even going to see a psychic. Nobody's future is full of gloom and everyone's past life was that of Napolean or some noble lord etc. I'm not some "believer" in this stuff. It was an afterthought that I tagged on a post about a sales methodology. But it's definitely what has garnered all the comments. Too bad.

From what I know of you, "The Virtuoso" sounded pretty appropriate. You definitely seem the type to crave their individual freedom, someone that likes to work with their hands and fix things and you're creative. -That said, there are only two MB personality types I knew the name for prior to today and that's mine and my wife's. I'm no student of the stuff. But I do think, for the sake of sales, it's worthwhile to consider the many personality types and their motivating factors. What makes one person take action might be very different for another.

But yeah, as I mentioned in a comment to veen, I don't think people should take this stuff too seriously. That would be very silly. But I did enjoy taking the quiz with my wife. We were at a sushi restaurant, having had a couple of drinks and reading each others "styles" to the other had us laughing pretty hard.
