Quick guide to personality types

Hey all this is just a quick guide to personality types.

There are 4 types, these are usually described as the DISC system or the color system. I'll use both in this quick guide.

Ok so we will highlight how to find what personality you predominately are and also find out the pro's and con's of each.

To find out the personality type draw a square, then divide the in side of the square in to four quadrants. Top left place in D or Red, Top right its either I or Blue, Bottom Right is either S or Yellow, and lastly Bottom left is either C or Green.
Now to know which you are, at the bottom of the vertical line write in "Reserved" and at the top write in "Outgoing" now on the left side of the horizontal line write in "Task" and on the right, write in "People".

Now ask yourself these to questions, are you more out going or more reserved?
and are you more task based or more people based?
When you answer these you will know where you belong.

Now a quick strengths and weakness view of the personality types.
