About me:
New Outlook: Business Management
So, first of all I took a Career Assessment test and a Myers-Briggs type indicator at a college I use to go to. At first my brother pestered me to take this, he insisted it was going to help me out with some solutions when it comes to my career. And luckily I listened.
Prior to this, after I dropped school and my ego shot, I personally just wanted to just find a decent paying job without a degree, but that pretty much pissed off my mom and dad... just great. Hah!
Dad said, "DO YOU WANT TO WORK 60 HOURS A WEEK, FOR 10$ AN HOUR." HE SAID, "YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DO WITH THEIR LIVES? THEY JUST GO TO THE BAR AND DRINK ALL DAY AFTER WORK. KNOW WHY? BECAUSE THEY ARE DUMB! AND DO DRUGS! OKAY HERE'S YOUR JOB, GO GET ME A BEER"
Okay dad, maybe I am stupid, so I might as well find a stupid job that pays me more than than irrigation or landscaping. Or do I? No idea you make that decision for me.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is where it stands. Yes, I have visited graphic design houses. Yes, I've been back to playing piano. Yes I've been back to running - but I knew I still questioned myself about a degree in either category, regardless, so what else is left?
Well, I turned to the results.
I always knew I was an ISTJ. In fact, those were the same results I figured out before I was given my personality results.
"Quiet, serious, earn success by thoroughness, and dependability, Practical, matter-of-fact, realistic, and responsible. Decide logically what should be done and work toward it steadily, regardless of distractions. Take pleasure in making everything orderly and organized - their work, their home, their life. Value traditions and loyality."
For those that know me, I scored 100% on introversion 21/21, so that explains my "cave like" tendencies.
Anyways, back to the job report.
I scored highest on the Computer Graphic Design, Information Technology, and Behavioral Sciences in that order.
Number 1, I know that Graphic Design does favor my interest, but ironically it does not favor my personality.
For instance, here's an excerpt. "Individuals who fall into this category are distinguished by their interests in working in creative, aesthetic environments that are relatively unstructured and allow for artistic freedom"
I definitely had to take that into thought, and it made me even question my interests. After consistently unable to make a decisive action upon my behalf, I finally chose to eliminate graphic design from my list, in spite all of the work that I put into developing a consistent archival recap.
This time around I want my personality to nurture my career rather than the other way around. This will defeat the purpose as a graphic designer.
The next job priority happens to be information technology, yes, it looks fine and dandy but in GD I knew I wasn't a programmer. I am not as intuitive and it takes intuition to be successful I believe, especially in that field. So I cut that out.
That leaves me with behavioral science. Excerpt "They enjoy math and science, like analyzing data, and like working independently. Individuals in this category solve problems by thinking and value logic, critical analysis, the creative process, science, intellectual freedom and precision."
So is that me? Maybe so, but now it is to late to get a degree in Psychology for instance, especially at UWRF, and I do not want to wait for spring. I still need to be in school.
So I thought, what careers are most ISTJ's occupied in?
Business of course - that was the top category most ISTJS fall into, so I shall logically do the same. Never in my life have I ever spent a huge interest in business - but dammit if I just give myself a degree and leave it at that I'd make the world happy.
So how much effort would I put into this degree? Around 75%.
Why? This way, I won't end up like my prior attitude with Game Design, going into it knowing for sure that Game Design was 100% for me, only realizing later that I wanted to get out of it 100%!
At least I would have that extra 25% not going to waste if I realize its not for me. This would leave room for majoring in psychology and minoring in business. You see I got it all planned out again.
All it took was a little nap, a hell of a lot of thinking, and I am set again, at least for the time being.
After reviewing myself, I realized this. All this time I've been following my interest that heavily imposed onto the artistic, and creative structures. Maybe its about time I follow my logic side, and hint that my personality is not so creative as I thought, I just happened to be attracted to it if that make sense, art and music. I finally believe I've been nurturing the wrong portion of my personality, and I am going to try the logic side for now on see to see if that makes me feel any better.
And if not, if I see failure beyond getting a degree in business and psychology, I am going to follow exactly what my parents told me not to, to do the stupid thing, and do what the hell what my heart is telling me, just find myself a decent paying job.
I am absolutely tired of this circle, when will it ever be a line?
Oh the side note, the facts says something about the Playing section of an ISTJ
"Too busy to date" - I found a good excuse. "I am not lazy, I am just an ISTJ!"
"It is sadly true that many with your rock solid, super stable, super dependable personality tend to select those super unstable, super undependable mates"
Uh oh, so I guess my future is in for a hell of a lot of drama.
But thats okay, I've already decided that I am going to listen to the facts of an ISTJ to guide the rest of my life, that way I wouldn't have to make any dramatic decisions.
Without further ado, for those that want to be my friend, you first have to take a Myers Briggs test so I can test your results. Else I will not be your friend.
Hah Just kidding. I won't go that far, maybe when I am older and a little more crazier.
