The Myer-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a short test that determines what personality category you fall under. Once you know what type of personality you have, the easier it is for you to adopt behaviours that will enhance your life, further your career, and improve your relationships. Check out the celebs below who mastered using their ENTJ (Extroversion, Intuition, Thinking, Judging) personalities to become hugely successful.
Jim Carey
Carey has never been known for being the shy and retiring type! He has learned to harness his high energy into being super concentrated in his career. One ENTJ weakness can be their rigidity but transforming that focus and concentration can help smash your professional goals just like Carey.
Bill Gates
Arguably one of the most successful entrepreneurs on earth, Gates used his thinking skills to create the strategic business moves that propelled him to such success. Not only a maverick in the corporate world, Gates has also shown his love of philanthropy. Another ENTJ strength is world thinking and he has given billions of dollars to help better other lives. Adopt Gate's zest for generosity and it will make you a more well-rounded person, plus helping others feels good!
George Clooney
Clooney has shown off his acting skills for years and years but his transition into filmmaking and directing has been more enjoyable for him with him stating "Directing is much more satisfying to me than acting." Take a leaf out of Clooney's book and use your penchant for planning to carve out the career that you've always wanted.
Adele
Not only a musical powerhouse, Adele is also a true ENTJ personality. She is known for being loud, funny, and unapologetically herself. Unlike a typical extrovert, Adele also values her privacy. There has been much speculation around her divorce, weight loss, and new music (especially recently!) and she has stayed silent for the most part. Follow in Adele's footsteps by keeping your personal life to yourself in the workplace and not falling into the trap of oversharing.
Whoopi Goldberg
A classic extrovert, Goldberg is loud, proud, and ambitious. Rising through the ranks of the acting world in a time where racism was prevalent, Goldberg was determined to reach super-star status. Be inspired by her fearlessness and strive for your dreams. If Goldberg can overcome socioeconomic disadvantages to achieve greatness then so can you!
Margaret Thatcher
One of the most prolific politicians of the last century, Thatcher was a born leader. The first female Prime Minister of the UK, Thatcher had to conquer a world that was typically made for men. ENTJ's are logical and upfront, but also charismatic. This balance can thrust you towards triumph in your personal and professional life. Copy Thatcher's will to lead and you can reach the heights of success.
