A True ISTJ
- You are down-to-earth; most of your ideas are practical, not theoretical.
- You are highly pragmatic, systematic, hardworking, detail-oriented, and thorough...You get the job done and complete it on time.
- You are generally quiet and cautious, serious and sincere in whatever you do.
- You operate effectively within a framework and adhere to the hierarchy, preferring well-defined rules and regulations so that you may focus solely on the task at hand.
- ISTJ's are very meticulous when it comes to keeping track of facts and details. You enjoy applying previous experience to current decisions and can quote accurate information to back up your claims and tend to do the right thing at the right time.
- People trust you because you endeavor to follow through on your commitments. Your word is your bond. You're responsible and wise stewards of society.
- Practical and realistic, you have great powers of concentration...it is difficult to distract you once you have made up your mind about something.
- While you do not actively pursue leadership positions, you may find yourself in one...you have a reputation for dependable, stable, and consistent performance.
- You are the type to plan out your entire vacation; it helps you to have a purpose, even if that purpose is sociability.
- All of the above paints a pretty robotic picture of a human being, but ISTJ’s do like to have a good time! Weddings, holidays, birthdays, etc., allow them permission to lighten up and take these opportunities to show the world their beautiful soul.
Relationships
- Even if you are madly in love with your partner, you do occasionally need your space to recharge your batteries. You are not the type to act needy, and clingy others are a turn-off.
- Marriage is a major and serious commitment for you; you are a rock for your mate, and you are generally known for your steadiness and dependability.
- You may stay in a poor relationship because of a sense of duty...you might have strong but unspoken reactions under that cool facade.
- Logical and analytical, you are quick to point out flaws in other people...when you feel scorned in a relationship, you may not let your partner know it...when it is obvious to you that a relationship is truly over, ending it is the practical thing to do.
Recommendations
- Don't forget to compliment people, and don't be so concerned with getting the job done. It will get done.
- Recognize your emotions and the values they represent. Learn to put words to your emotions; you will experience less frustration with the people around you.
- Be impulsive now and then. Be lazy and goof around once in a while.
