The quest for self-knowledge is a part of everyone's human nature. Especially in modern times, when less of our existence is spent on just surviving, the desire to improve ourselves, to understand our weaknesses and develop our strengths has led to an entire "self-help" industry.
Personality tests and quizzes, such as the MBTI (the Myers
Briggs Type Indicator) and other
personality type tests, help us focus on our inner
attributes and can help us develop our self-esteem, deepen our relationships with others, and live our lives to their very fullest. At
the Goddess Path we have spent several years developing a personality test that is based on the reputable
IPIP-Neo version of the "big five inventory". However, we interpret personality as reflective of "goddesses" or archetypes. We believe that we are all born with an inherent temperament that influences every aspect of personality. By taking
the Greek Gods Quiz or the Goddess Quiz, you can uncover the archetype that has the most influence in your life. Your primary archetype represents your "comfort zone." This is where you are most relaxed and effective. While your primary archetype is the strongest, you also carry within you other "goddesses" that can help short up your areas of weakness. You may also have a "missing goddess." Consciously trying to develop that area of your personality can have far-reaching benefits.
Personality tests, whether they are fun and free or serious
career planning tests, will be an interesting and valuable
tool for self-assessment. You will learn new methods of coping
with stress and anxiety, careers which are especially suitable
for you or ways to improve your intimate relationships.
