For our first lecture on personal and professional practice, we looked at the qualities that define us. The whole idea was to pin point how we would fit in to a team and what role we would play. We were asked to answer four questions with one of two letters. at the end of the questions, the chosen letters produced a code, My code was 'I.N.F.J,' meaning that my traits fit that of a 'protector.' The reason for this is that I believe I am an 'introvert,' meaning I draw energy and inspiration from myself, and can generally be quite shy. I also answered that I am 'intuitive,' meaning that I use my imagination when approaching a task. I found I have a 'feeling character,' meaning it is important to me how the choices I make affect others. Finally, I discovered I have a 'judging' trait, which means I am organised and don't like tasks hanging over my shoulder, and like to be on top of things.
Researching further the 'I.N.F.J' persona, I also found that the 'protector:' is gentle and caring, they constantly define and re-define the priorities in their lives, are considered to be complex and are always working to improve themselves, and rarely step back and take in their achievements. I can relate to this, as I am not the kind of person who quickly adapts to any new task or hobby and picks up things generally with ease, but I do put a lot of heart and devotion in to any new endeavour.
I also discovered that there are some interesting job prospects for an 'I.N.F.J.' Some of these jobs involve: teaching, music, photography and psychology.
