re: OT Time-waster: Which personality type are you?

ESTPs are the likeliest personality type to make a lifestyle of risky behavior. They live in the moment and dive into the action. They are forced to make critical decisions based on factual, immediate reality in a process of rapid-fire rational stimulus response.

This makes school and other highly organized environments a challenge for ESTPs. It certainly isn't because they aren't smart, and they can do well, but the regimented, lecturing approach of formal education is just so far from the hands-on learning that ESTPs enjoy.

With perhaps the most perceptive, unfiltered view of any type, ESTPs have a unique skill in noticing small changes. Whether a shift in facial expression, a new clothing style, or a broken habit, people with this personality type pick up on hidden thoughts and motives where most types would be lucky to pick up anything specific at all.

Making up only four percent of the population, there are just enough ESTPs out there to keep things spicy and competitive, and not so many as to cause a systemic risk.

Yeah, this is me. And every single one of these things I've ever taken, even legit ones that take up to an hour, tell me that only about 2-4% of the population fits my category. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing
