Frugal Dad twittered his results to a personality quiz called “41 Questions, 1 Personality.” His results said he should be a writer.

My results can be found here: MLR’s personality type. Alternatively, you can try this personality quiz which will also match you up with people.

MLR’s personality type:

Practical, traditional and organized. Likely to be athletic. Not interested in theory or abstraction unless they see the practical application. Have clear visions of the way things should be. Loyal and hard-working. Like to be in charge. Exceptionally capable in organizing and running activities. ‘Good citizens’ who value security and peaceful living.

Careers that could fit MLR include:

Military, business administrators, managers, police/detective work, judges, financial officers, teachers, sales representatives, government workers, insurance agents, underwriters, nursing administrators, trade and technical teachers.

Tip: Place the mouse cursor over the bars for explanations of the terms.

My thoughts?

I was very pleased to see that my results had the words practical and organized. I can very much agree with that! I am not so sure what they mean by traditional, though.

I like to think about theory and principle, but the description is certainly correct in that I don’t view it as that important if there is no practical application. That can be good or bad, I suppose.

In regards to the careers that could fit, I am actually in a supervisory role right now. So looks like I chose a good career path. Funny thing is that I have thought about becoming a teacher eventually. And look at that, it is listed! Good to know :)

They put a little chart that shows what trait you lean towards. So I am extroverted, equally sensing and intuitive, a thinker, and slightly more judging than perceiving.

I think the quiz was fairly accurate… and a good way to spend 5 minutes!
