WHO AM I
According to the merge of Babylonian Celestial Omens, 2nd millennium BCE, and Egyptian Decanic Astrology, early 1st century BCE, now called Horoscopic Astrology,
I AM A GEMINI.
I wonder which person showed up today?
The phrasing is relevent to the other 2 parts of me as shown below.
Part 1
According to Myers-Briggs I am an E-N-T-P
Extraversion - Intuiting - Thinking - Perciving
As far as scores go, first is Intuition (higher than the total of the other 3), second, but followed closely by Thinking, is Extraversion, and tying it all up is Perceiving.
Any wonder why I like poker?
Extraversion: That's right! I have more than one version of what we are about to discuss. May not be what you thought as there may be more than one version because the Gemini rules, --- Let's talk !
Intuitive: I have my own Tarot Cards and a cloudy Crystal Ball, ~~~~~ Let's Talk!!
Thinking: I think, therefore I am, I think? I'm not so sure about you though. ~~~~~ Let's talk!!!
Perceiving: Says it ALL!! You could be in trouble before you open your mouth. ~~~~~ Let's Talk!!!! http://www.personalitypage.com/ENTP.html
Now we come to Part 2 of ME, and it's all about ME!
According to the Clifton Strength Quest Test
I AM - (in this order):
1: Learner
Learner People have a great desire to learn and want to continuously improve. In particular, the process of learning, rather than the outcome, excites them.
2: Ideation
Ideation People are fascinated by ideas. They are able to find connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.
3: Strategic
Strategic People create alternative ways to proceed. Faced with any given scenario, they can quickly spot the relevant patterns and issues.
4: Individualization
Individualization People are intrigued with the unique qualities of each person. They have a gift for figuring out how people who are different can work together productively.
5: Acheiver
Achiever People have a great deal of stamina and work hard. They take great satisfaction from being busy and productive.
Any wonder why I like poker?
In poker you need to learn everything about the game and the people. Once you have learned about them, you need to get ideas on how different people connect to the game, the thought process that people take playing the game. Once you have an idea of how different people play the game, you need a stratagy on using the information to win the game. Once you have a strategy to win, you need to adapt it to the unique qualities of each person playing the game. Once you know how to win over different people, you know how to acheive the goal of winning. http://www.strengthsquest.com/
The Bottom Line:
Any wonder why I like poker?
Poker is like life. Being able to learn is not as important a wanting to learn. Learning leads to forming ideas. It helps you to figure out how to cope with other people. You have to be aware of your surroundings, be able to interact with other people and understand where they are coming from, psychologically and socially. All of these allow you to figure out who you are as an individual and how to set and reach goals.
