Myers Briggs Personality: ENTP Extraverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving: ENTPs are creative thinkers who see many ways of getting things done and logically analyze how different choices might turn out. They are curious, wanting to know what else besides the routine approach might work and they are flexible, always willing to try something new. They loathe regular routine and find themselves constantly pulled to new adventures before they have completed their old ones. ENTPs can be persuasive speakers, able to express a vision more easily than others.

VIA (Values in Action) Strengths:

Curiosity [interest, novelty-seeking, openness]: I take an interest in all of ongoing experience for its own sake. I find subjects and topics fascinating. I explore and discover.

Creativity [originality, ingenuity]: I think of novel and productive ways to do things. This strength includes artistic achievement but is not limited to it.

Humor [playfulness]: I like to laugh and tease. I bring smiles to other people. I see the light side. I make(but don't necessarily tell) jokes.

Love of Learning: I master new skills, topics, and bodies of knowledge, whether on your own or formally. This strength is obviously related to the strength of curiosity but goes beyond it to describe the tendency to add systematically to what I know.

Hope [optimism, future-mindedness, future orientated]: I expect the best in the future and work to achieve it. I believe that a good future is something that can be brought about.
