At first, I did not believe at all in these types of tests where the answers to certain questions revealed important elements about a person. This all changed in HTM 301 when I took the MBTP personality test. I was amazed how for the most past, the results reflected my personality. With no surprise, the results of the PMAI match up to who I am and with the stage of life I am enjoying right now.
My active archetypes are Jester, Caregiver, Innocent, and Seeker. Three of my top values are religion, family, and happiness. They go hand in hand with my top two archetypes. As a jester, I love to joke around and have fun. As a caregiver, I care a lot about the people that are very close to me and I am very involved in my community. Caregiver is active in my life but it is definitely something that I have to grow and develop. I do like to try new things but I must admit that at first, I am a little resistant to them. I have to work on embracing change instead of fighting against it. Even though I do think about the future and where it will be taking me, for now, I am more concerned about enjoying where I am at right now and just having fun!
My shadow archetype was orphan and I was kind of surprised because I don’t believe that it relates to me so much. Thankfully, I have not gone through a traumatizing situation in life that completely or partly changed the way I act. The only aspect of the archetype orphan that I connected to is how orphans act as leaders. They are realistic about what can and cannot be accomplished and they do not promise what they cannot deliver. I am absolutely like that. If I feel something cant be accomplished it is not that I will not try in doing it, I will just put more time and energy in to try and achieve that certain goal; failure comes after trying, not before.
