so proud of my friend and former "Alchemist Playground" co-host
@EricGee711 for having written a delightful new book called
#ThePower of
#personality that brings new life to the Old
#myersbriggs classifications by first of all minimizing the old
#extrovertedintrovert paradigm (which describes most of us at one time or another) and moves the test from the kinds of questions you can manipulate, to a series of key words that best describes you in certain situations. Then you get classified into 4 main groups or "packs" (The Gatherers, The Hunters, The Smiths or, my group, The Shamans) and from there into four subgroups (in the case of The Shamans, Panda, Baboons, Humpback Whales, or, as I am, Dolphins). It's a great way to explore not only your desirable and less desirable tendencies, but how you compare to others within your sub-group and across groups. How empathy and optimism can flip to hypersensitivity and magical thinking. Shamans can stop feeling weird and understand they are simply rare and wonderful. Find out who your group is today!
