Season 1, Episode 3
Why should you study your personality type? Does it matter which one you are? (Yes, the answer is yes) In episode 3, Joe and Zac provide a very simple way to identify your Myers Briggs personality type and talk about what it implies about your future.  

From these 16 different personality types, we are collecting data and this data specifically reveals: 

  • Where our energy comes from,(I vs E) which speak into the type of environment that will keep us fueled

    • Introvert:  You will need to balance thinking vs doing - otherwise you will be paralyzed by your thoughts

    • Extrovert: You will need to stop and get clear on what you want to do and why

  • How we prefer to process information, (S vs N) which speaks into the types of problems we are most likely to solve

    • Sensing: You may miss the forest for the trees - don’t get lost in the weeds!

    • Intuition: You may live so much in the clouds that you forget your legs were made to run - don’t forget the movement is life for your ideas

  • How we prefer to make decisions, (T vs F) which speaks into the style of leadership we take on

    • Thinking: You may win the battle but lose the war - don’t sacrifice your relationship with people over the desire to be right

    • Feeling: Your concern for others could be cancerous - don’t let the hard realities and truths go unaddressed

  • How we prefer to live our lives, (J vs P) which speaks into the how we will choose to get things done

    • Judging: Too much structure could stifle the creativity inside you and others - create your plan but don't’ stress when it doesn’t stay linear

    • Perceiving: Your casual, spontaneous nature is awesome, but it could prevent you from from staying focused on the what’s most important

The best decisions about our future are made by using a combination of several functions: Check out Tyler Schuetze’s Decision Matrix and his new book “The Awkward List”.
