I am definetly not a type A personality person, and I think that it can actually be a good and bad thing at times. I think Gleick is correct in addressing how type a personalities can be a bit much, on the aspect of rushing everything, but there are still some perks to a type a personality, like the fact that they typically get things done on time, and arent the type to prcrastinate. I also have to say that there, more often then not, is a type C personality too, where the person exhibits some of type A's rushed traits, (and as gleick mentioned, fast car driving, stair running, fast talking, and hypervigilance) some of type B's mellowed traits, (as gleick mentioned to be the slow car driving, elevator riding, day dreamers) and even a little bit of something totally different. Gleick seems to only touch base on type A and B, but I think that when it comes to the human psyche, there is not only more than what meets the eye, there is also more than just two labeled outcomes.
p.s.- my pictures show a type C person (chilling on the beach, yet still reading a book, and wearing a watch) a type A person (with everything going on at once, two phones, notes whatnot) and then a type B person (doing yoga and meditation)
By the way my personality test results were ENFP, How I like to describe it is an extraverted intuition with introverted feeling, which labels me as "the inspirer". And like many who take the test, I couldn't agree more. They pin-pointed me to the tee.
ReplyDeleteI love your pictures! They give a very vivid image of what the 3 personality types are like to those readers that are more visual learners. Next time you should go into detail more about type c since it isnt something thats suggested in the reading and your bringing the topic up :)
ReplyDeleteI loved your graphics, too. They said it all. I am a Type B myself even though I seem to be a worrywart about some things.
