1) Your intelligence
Though certain cognitive functions have been theorised to correlate with high or low performance on IQ tests, personality type alone does not determine one's intelligence. Every type has, at some point or another, been represented among the 'gifted' or high achieving population. Type may be a starting point for intelligence, but interest, motivation, and discipline make up for more of the equation than personality alone seems to.
2) Whether or not your a nice person
"Some of the cruelest people I've ever met in my life have been ExFJ's, some of the nicest xNTJ's".
"Your type may indicate how naturally in tune you are with others feelings, but that doesn't correlate with the care you put into your relationships. Whether or not you are kind and empathetic to those around you is a choice- and it's one that any type can manage consciously"
3) Your level of motivation
Though P types are stereotyped to be less motivated that J types, this myth doesn't necessarily check out. P's may struggle with follow through, but they make up some of the most entrepreneurial and industrious individuals out there. Any type can be motivated or unmotivated in his or her own right- it's simply the way that motivation manifests itself that is attributed to personality.
4) How faithful or trustworthy you are
"I've met INFJ's who've cheated without remorse. I've met ESTP's who stayed faithful to their partners until their dying day"
"Some types may be more naturally inclined to have a wondering eye but the decision to stay faithful is one that each of us is capable of making. How trustworthy you are as a partner or a friend has nothing to do with your type- it has to do with how you choose to manage your impulses"
5) Your professional success
Though certain types are more likely to glean energy from certain professional roles, any type is capable of achieving success in almost any field of work that they commit themselves to. Introverts can be powerful leaders and extroverts can flourish in introspective roles. So long as they're able to balance their natural tendencies in or outside of work, any dedicated type can find a way to succeed in their chosen field of work.
6) How successful a given relationship will be
Though certain types are arguably more romantically compatible than others, natural compatibility only takes a relationship so far. Attraction is a tricky equation, and when it comes down to it, any two types who are healthy and committed to each other are capable of making a relationship work.
7) Your ability to maintain basic social contracts
Being a perceiver doesn't mean you get to be late for everything. Being an introvert doesn't mean you get to flake out on plans every time you're feeling drained. Type is never an excuse for bad behaviour- just because something doesn't give you energy doesn't mean you're incapable of doing it.
8) Your ability to change and develop yourself
Being an F doesn't mean you can't learn to budget and make pragmatic decisions. Being a T doesn't mean you can't learn to be a caring and compassionate parent. Our personalities should never be an excuse to limit our own development or growth- if anything, they can provide a powerful framework for becoming the most well rounded versions of ourselves
