Okay, now let's hear today's question.

Hi, Joel and Tony and the rest of the Personality Hacker team.

My name is Eric and my question is in regard to identifying with multiple personality types.

I'll start with an example.

My wife has tested as an ENFJ but from my perspective, she's not strongly extroverted

or introverted but is instead somewhere in between.

So as a result, she shows characteristics that at times seem to fit the description of

an ENFJ but at other times, she can perhaps fit the description of an INFJ.

As a disclaimer, of course, these are only my conclusions and I'm not trained in personality

typing.

So my question is it common for individuals to be identified with multiple personality

types or when this occurs, do you recommend that such an individual do more research or

introspection to eventually narrow down to a single personality type?

Are there instances in which it's valuable for a person to identify with multiple types

instead of a single one?
