The Dukedom of Aberdeen 香港仔公國

人家都玩過了我現在才玩，容格的性格類型測驗，而且玩了兩個版本。

先玩Stannum傳來的facebook 版本，結果是ISTP - The Crafter（Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, Perceiving）。

之後玩Stannum網誌連結了的網上版，這個版本較長，問問題的方式也比較煩人，結果是ESTP，後三項性格特質一致，唯一分別是由內向（Introverted）變成了外向（Extraverted）。

不過從ESTP的強度指數來細分，外向僅為1%、Sensing是50%、Thinking是20%，Perceiving是22%，可以其外向是一邊緣的那種，差一點就會算做內向型了。我的確是這樣子的。獨個兒的時候會想跟大伙兒一起，大伙兒的時候又想一個人獨處。

According to Myers-Briggs, ISTPs excel at analyzing situations to reach the heart of a problem so that they can swiftly implement a functional repair, making them ideally suited to the field of engineering. Naturally quiet people, they are interested in understanding how systems operate, focusing on efficient operation and structure. They are open to new information and approaches. But contrary to their seemingly detached natures, ISTPs are often capable of humorously insightful observations about the world around them, and can be closet “daredevils” who gravitate toward fast-moving and/or risky hobbies (such as bungee jumping, hang gliding, motorcycling, parachuting, SCUBA diving, etc.), recreational sports (such as downhill skiing, ice hockey, racing, etc.), and careers (such as aviation, firefighting, etc.).

According to Keirsey, ISTPs are masters at using tools of every type—artistic, technological, martial. Although they are introverts, they are authoritarian in their interactions with others and can be forceful at influencing people. They focus on accomplishing tasks efficiently and skillfully.

To master the tool of their interest, ISTPs require a certain degree of seclusion in which to practice. The result is often a virtuosity that other types find difficult to match.

我覺得以上的把我說得太好了。至少，我不大喜歡fast-moving and/or risky hobbies，相反，我真的頗detached的。

The Portait of the Promoter (ESTP) － description by D.Keirsey

The Artisans called Promoters are not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in achieving their goals, they are also enterprising and expressive in their social interactions. They have no hesitation at all in approaching strangers and persuading them to do something. And others do their bidding, even on slight acquaintance.

Promoters are men and women of action. When someone of this personality is present, things begin to happen: the lights come on, the music plays, the game begins. And a game it is for the Promoter, the entrepreneur, the troubleshooter, the negotiator. Promoting is the art of winning others to your position, giving them confidence to go along with what you propose, and Promoter’s seem especially able to maneuver others in the direction they want them to go. In a sense, they are able to handle people with much the same skill as Crafter’s handle tools, operate machines, or play musical instruments. You might say that people are instruments in the Promoters’ hands, and that they “play” them with great artistry. Promoters make up approximately ten per cent of the general population, and if only one adjective could be used to describe them, “resourceful” would be an apt choice.

Life is never dull around Promoters. Witty, clever, and fun, Promoters live life with a theatrical flourish which makes even the most routine events seem exciting. Not that they waste much time on routine events. Promoters have a knack for knowing where the action is. They always seem to have tickets to the “hot” show or “big” game (or can get them when others can’t), and they usually know the best restaurants, where the headwaiters are likely to call them by name. To be sure, Promoters have a hearty appetite for the finer things of life, the best food, the best wine, expensive cars, and fashionable clothes. And they are extremely attentive to others and smooth in social circles, knowing many, many people by name, and knowing how to say just the right thing to most everyone they meet. None are as socially sophisticated as Promoters, none as suave and polished-and none such master manipulators of the people around them.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Ernest Hemingway, John F. Kennedy, Donald Trump, Madonna, George C. Patton, Evita Peron, Winston Churchill, Grace Slick, and Teddy Roosevelt are examples of the Promoter Artisan temperament.

似乎ESTP跟自己更像樣一點，也可以說是這個版本的形容聽起來的令人開懷高興吧。不過同樣地是說得太誇張了。

我突然明白為甚麼大家都樂此不疲的去玩心理測驗，因為無論結果是哪一類，去到分析環節時總能說出一大堆漂亮的話兒。好像這個，最後還讓你跟一大堆名人並列。如果人家說你性格特質像偉人羅斯福、文豪海明威、總統甘乃迪、富商特朗普和歌星麥當娜，你也不好意思反對，只有欣然接受吧。

ISTP是Crafter，ESTP則被稱為Artisans。我覺得我的確是個工匠，工作一件一件的做，急不來，也不能將事情發大錢搵錢搞大茶飯。工匠，就是手停口停的人。
