The Guardian
As an ESTJ, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you deal with things rationally and logically. Your secondary mode is internal, where you take things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion.
ESTJs live in a world of facts and concrete needs. They live in the present, with their eye constantly scanning their personal environment to make sure that everything is running smoothly and systematically. They honor traditions and laws, and have a clear set of standards and beliefs. They expect the same of others, and have no patience or understanding of individuals who do not value these systems. They value competence and efficiency, and like to see quick results for their efforts.
ESTJs are take-charge people. They have such a clear vision of the way that things should be, that they naturally step into leadership roles. They are self-confident and aggressive. They are extremely talented at devising systems and plans for action, and at being able to see what steps need to be taken to complete a specific task. They can sometimes be very demanding and critical, because they have such strongly held beliefs, and are likely to express themselves without reserve if they feel someone isn't meeting their standards. But at least their expressions can be taken at face-value, because the ESTJ is extremely straight-forward and honest.
The ESTJ is usually a model citizen, and pillar of the community. He or she takes their commitments seriously, and follows their own standards of "good citizenship" to the letter. ESTJ enjoys interacting with people, and likes to have fun. ESTJs can be very boisterous and fun at social events, especially activities which are focused on the family, community, or work.
The ESTJ needs to watch out for the tendency to be too rigid, and to become overly detail-oriented. Since they put a lot of weight in their own beliefs, it's important that they remember to value other people's input and opinions. If they neglect their Feeling side, they may have a problem with fulfilling other's needs for intimacy, and may unknowingly hurt people's feelings by applying logic and reason to situations which demand more emotional sensitivity.
When bogged down by stress, an ESTJ often feels isolated from others. They feel as if they are misunderstood and undervalued, and that their efforts are taken for granted. Although normally the ESTJ is very verbal and doesn't have any problem expressing themself, when under stress they have a hard time putting their feelings into words and communicating them to others.
ESTJs value security and social order above all else, and feel obligated to do all that they can to enhance and promote these goals. They will mow the lawn, vote, join the PTA, attend home owners association meetings, and generally do anything that they can to promote personal and social security.
The ESTJ puts forth a lot of effort in almost everything that they do. They will do everything that they think should be done in their job, marriage, and community with a good amount of energy. He or she is conscientious, practical, realistic, and dependable. While the ESTJ will dutifully do everything that is important to work towards a particular cause or goal, they might not naturally see or value the importance of goals which are outside of their practical scope. However, if the ESTJ is able to see the relevance of such goals to practical concerns, you can bet that they'll put every effort into understanding them and incorporating them into their quest for clarity and security.

Your type is: ESTP
ESTP - "Promotor". Action! When present, things begin to happen. Fiercely competitive. Entrepreneur. Often uses shock effect to get attention. Negotiator par excellence. 4.3% of total population.
The Doer
As an ESTP, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you take things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is internal, where you deal with things rationally and logically.
ESTPs are outgoing, straight-shooting types. Enthusiastic and excitable, ESTPs are "doers" who live in the world of action. Blunt, straight-forward risk-takers, they are willing to plunge right into things and get their hands dirty. They live in the here-and-now, and place little importance on introspection or theory. The look at the facts of a situation, quickly decide what should be done, execute the action, and move on to the next thing.
ESTPs have an uncanny ability to perceive people's attitudes and motivations. They pick up on little cues which go completely unnoticed by most other types, such as facial expressions and stance. They're typically a couple of steps ahead of the person they're interacting with. ESTPs use this ability to get what they want out of a situation. Rules and laws are seen as guidelines for behavior, rather than mandates. If the ESTP has decided that something needs to be done, then their "do it and get on with it" attitude takes precendence over the rules. However, the ESTP tends to have their own strong belief in what's right and what's wrong, and will doggedly stick to their principles. The Rules of the Establishment may hold little value to the ESTP, but their own integrity mandates that they will not under any circumstances do something which they feel to be wrong.
ESTPs have a strong flair for drama and style. They're fast-moving, fast-talking people who have an appreciation for the finer things in life. They may be gamblers or spendthrifts. They're usually very good at story telling and improvising. They typically makes things up as they go along, rather than following a plan. They love to have fun, and are fun people to be around. They can sometimes be hurtful to others without being aware of it, as they generally do not know and may not care about the effect their words have on others. It's not that they don't care about people, it's that their decision-making process does not involve taking people's feelings into account. They make decisions based on facts and logic.
ESTP's least developed area is their intuitive side. They are impatient with theory, and see little use for it in their quest to "get things done". An ESTP will occasionally have strong intuitions which are often way off-base, but sometimes very lucid and positive. The ESTP does not trust their instincts, and is suspicious of other people's intuition as well.
The ESTP often has trouble in school, especially higher education which moves into realms where theory is more important. The ESTP gets bored with classes in which they feel they gain no useful material which can be used to get things done. The ESTP may be brilliantly intelligent, but school will be a difficult chore for them.
The ESTP needs to keep moving, and so does well in careers where he or she is not restricted or confined. ESTPs make extremely good salespersons. They will become stifled and unhappy dealing with routine chores. ESTPs have a natural abundance of energy and enthusiasm, which makes them natural entrepreneurs. They get very excited about things, and have the ability to motivate others to excitement and action. The can sell anyone on any idea. They are action-oriented, and make decisions quickly. All-in-all, they have extraordinary talents for getting things started. They are not usually so good at following through, and might leave those tasks to others. Mastering the art of following through is something which ESTPs should pay special attention to.
ESTPs are practical, observant, fun-loving, spontaneous risk-takers with an excellent ability to quickly improvise an innovative solution to a problem. They're enthusiastic and fun to be with, and are great motivators. If an ESTP recognizes their real talents and operates within those realms, they can accomplish truly exciting things.

Yeah I agree, a lot of the questions were silly/"no brainers", and the personality descriptions were mostly "all including", that is to say that almost everyone who read them in their "portrait" would consider it to describe them accurately. It's the same trick astrology uses to make people feel that their star sign dictates their personality. The only thing I think was mildly useful was this:
Introverted (I) 58.97% Extroverted (E) 41.03%
Intuitive (N) 65.79% Sensing (S) 34.21%
Feeling (F) 53.33% Thinking (T) 46.67%
Perceiving (P) 63.89% Judging (J) 36.11%
Now this doesn't at all accurately describe my personality because it's wrong on many points, I know myself a lot better than a silly program consisting of 48 mostly retarded questions, but at least it had the potential of telling me something useful. The text didn't, it's the type of text that will make everyone who reads it go: "Yeah, yeah, but that actually describes me pretty well. I'd consider it fairly accurate."
The introvert vs extrovert percentages are accurate, I am a bit more introvert than extrovert but it's not that big of a difference, the intuative/sensing percentages are all screwed up, turn the numbers and make it 66% sensing instead. The feeling/thinking coloumn is wrong too, I'd put it at 60/40 in favour of thinking. The last coloumn is fairly accurate, if a bit extreme perhaps.

You are right though. I am pretty in the middle of the road. The P with a near 50/50 split on S/N is bordering on a contradiction though.

I had a whole semester of classes about MBTI and there are certain things you should know:
- In MBTI the outcome of the test should only be used as a an aid to learning more about yourself. To find out your real typology you should consider both the test results and your own personal opinion when reading the different descriptions of the different personalities.
- MBTI suggests that human personalities are largely genetically fixed, but that your personality's expressions may change throughout your lifetime. This is quite resemblent with the animal kingdom where every animal has it's own personality(for example the many dog races).
- MBTI is about your personal preferences, not your eventual choices. It is about your thought patterns, not about your actions. Human behaviour is influenced by both internal and external aspects and MBTI narrows down on the classification and definition of the internal aspect.
- MBTI is mostly about learning about your own personality's strong points and weak points so that you can find a way on how to become a more mentally healthy person or so to speak.
- MBTI is a still a personality research in development. It hasn't progressed far enough as to say one person is 60% x and 40% y. At the moment it mostly describes the fact that you are more x than y(not in precise numbers). The percentages should be interpreted on how consistent you were on your test answers. Although as others might have remarked they can also sometimes be interpretive as indicative.
- Test results can be wrong because of different reasons: mixing personality and behavior, being tired, being uninterested, your mood at that specific moment, etc. You should however know that statistically most people will only get results where at max. 1 letter is wrong.

Although as others might have remarked they can also sometimes be interpretive as indicative.
- Test results can be wrong because of different reasons: mixing personality and behavior, being tired, being uninterested, your mood at that specific moment, etc. You should however know that statistically most people will only get results where at max. 1 letter is wrong.
Yet they pretend to be able to make precise descriptions of your personality. Go tell them what you told me, maybe they'll listen hah.

Don't read too much into it Quirk, if you really were what the text said you'd be interested to know if there are any "contradictions and inconsistencies" in the test.

probably, it's like the iq-tests you find on the internet. You have to pay for the decent professional tests and the free tests are of lesser quality
