Ok this is the second part of the Keirsey Temperament Report
Scary that in some part I can agree that this is truly reflect my character.
Providers take it upon themselves to insure the health and welfare of
those in their care, but they are also the most sociable of all the
Guardians, and thus are the great nurturers of social institutions
such as schools, churches, social clubs, and civic groups. Providers
are very likely more than ten percent of the population, and this is
fortunate for the rest of us, because friendly social service is a key
to their nature. Wherever they go, Providers happily give their time
and energy to make sure that the needs of others are met, and that
social functions are a success.
Highly cooperative themselves, Providers are skilled in maintaining
teamwork among their helpers, and are also tireless in their attention
to the details of furnishing goods and services. They make excellent
chairpersons in charge of dances, banquets, class reunions, charity
fund-raisers, and the like. They are without peer as masters of
ceremonies, able to speak publicly with ease and confidence. And they
are outstanding hosts or hostesses, knowing everyone by name, and
seemingly aware of what everyone's been doing. Providers love to
entertain, and are always concerned about the needs of their guests,
wanting to make sure that all are involved and provided for.
Friendly, outgoing, neighborly - in a word, Providers are gregarious,
so much so that they can become restless when isolated from people.
They love to talk with others, and will often strike up a conversation
with strangers and chat pleasantly about any topic that comes to mind.
Friendships matter a great deal to Providers, and their conversations
with friends often touch on good times from years past. Family
traditions are also sacred to them, and they carefully observe
birthdays and anniversaries. In addition, Providers show a delightful
fascination with news of their friends and neighbors. If we wish to
know what's been going on in the local community, school, or church,
they're happy to fill us in on all the details.
Providers are extremely sensitive to the feelings of others, which
makes them perhaps the most sympathetic of all the types, but which
also leaves them somewhat self-conscious, that is, highly sensitive to
what others think of them. Loving and affectionate themselves, they
need to be loved in return. In fact, Providers can be crushed by
personal criticism, and are happiest when given ample appreciation
both for themselves personally and for the tireless service they give
to others.
