    I have to say, I loved this book. It deals with Personality Type Testing (Myers-Briggs), and when I used it (the old version) back in 1995 after having a friend recommend it to me, I really liked what I read and discovered about myself. I had a copy of it for a long time, and then the last person I lent it to never gave it back... grrrr.....

    One hint... you cannot speed read this book, lol.

    Did you do an online Myers Briggs test?? What you may think you are, and what you really come out as can be totally different...

    Actually, Jenn, the church I go to had a fellow come and do a two day workshop on Personality type and Spirituality (the title was something like that).

    First day, we did the Myers-Briggs.

    The next Saturday, we did True Colors.

    INFP for MB and Blue with Green a strong second in True Colors.

    It was really interesting.

    The book I referred to - here or in the PM? - was What Color is your Parachute. It was really popular, and I got a copy, and tried to read through, and got totally bogged down!

    I was getting all geared up for public speaking, and then surgery happened...will have to wait a bit to get the extra 'oomph' to take that on.
