CrabbyGirlUC it can really help in a practice, especially with regards to marital disputes. For instance, if one spouse is more idealistic vs the realistic energy; they can more try to meet in the middle. Also, in combination with the Enneagram, the analysis goes incredibly in-depth. We'll get to that in a mid-week video. Can't wait. Glad to have you here ☺
I am in this world to help other people. it took me decades to realize this.I came to this realization through helping my mother in her final years, as this was also her primary motivation, and as she was less able, she was intensely frustrated.
Wow, I understand this better than the Myers Briggs. Thanks! Your descriptions were so well thought out, I feel like I don't even need to take the test. I already know what I am and my friends are. I'm going to try the test anyway and see what it says. But I'm sure I'm SP/SO.
SO/SX! This was really different for me. I think it's so important to try to understand other people and their viewpoints. It has always helped me in getting along at work or other groups. Fortunately, I usually find it easy to see the other persons point of view. Boy when I don't, it is bad! I will enjoy learning more about thus. Thanks for another great video!
Hey guys, once you’ve taken the test, head over to my Facebook (crmelody) and comment what your stacking is on the video. I want to put the results to your profile, but feel free to also leave your stacking in the comments below. Also, I wanted to clarify that all of us have all three instincts, but the way they’re ordered help to determine energy, where we can improve and what we have a tendency to enjoy.
I've taken that test and I found it quite accurate. As someone with Aspergers, I prefer not to be around people (too much), but I don't consider myself ill. 😜
Wow Melody, I read so much I usually know a lot of what is said on youtube but this was new to me:D Thank you so much!! I wish I met you one day to discuss psychologi:-D thanx again!!!
This is so interesting! I've never been exposed to this so thx for the introduction. I'm going to need to evaluate myself. I'm unsure which one i am. Def SX, but trying to fill in the blanks elsewhere. Great video. Love to see you share cool interests and aspects of your personality 💖
Sexual ||||||||||||||||| 54% Social |||||||||||||||||||||||| 74% Self Preservation |||||||||||| 38% I'm happy you'll be talking about the Enneagram next, it will help the instincts make more sense.
Loved this video!! I learned a lot about my personality by taking this test. I've taken many over the years and this one hit spot on. It resonated with me greatly. 😊
I couldn't follow this, but my favorite typing system is Carol Tuttles- she has a great website and very high quality TH-cam videos. I can see similarities but hers just clicks better with me. Hope this helps you out if this system seems to complex or concept intensive
Also this system skips one of carol tuttles types which is the personality motivated by fun- they are light, bright, and bubbly energetically and are are gifted naturally with seeing different ideas / possibilities optimistically and openly.
Thanks so much for this, that's an interesting view of personalities to be sure! :) Uuuuh, so I just took the test and I'm a bit confused now because this is what I got hehe.. Sexual ||||||||||||||||||||| 70% Social |||||||||||||||||| 54% Self Preservation |||||||||||||||||| 54%
Hey, just read up on the SX/SO and SX/SP descriptions to see which one suits you best :) I've noticed optimists are more jerky like me, with attention and energy (excited, then flat), whereas realists are more calm and steady.
Yes that actually does make sense, but I think with me it tends to vary depending on the overall situation or mood I am in. So I guess it isn't surprising that I got the same percentage on each. It might help to take the test again in a few months and see if there are differences showing. :) At the moment signs are pointing towards optimism, as I have been working at 300% for too long trying to resolve some issues in my job, but it's burned me out so I will be home for the next month, resting.. Thanks for this one Melody, very interesting!! x
Natasha26belova hey Natasha, read the paragraphs on SX/SO and SX/SP and one should stand out more. Scroll down to the halfway point about. www.the16types.info/vbulletin/content.php/133-Instinctual-Stackings
I rank SP/SX about equally, SO in last place. All the observations fit dead on. I also recognize the criticisms I've gotten from other people have to do with my SP and SX tendencies. And I've criticized others for their SO tendencies that I don't understand. Keeping these ideas in mind could definitely help me see myself and others in a more compassionate way. Thank you!
There's not a lot of SX/SO INFJs, but I would guess SO/SX or possibly SX/SP or SX/SO. You can read about the three about mid-way down this page to be more sure: www.the16types.info/vbulletin/content.php/133-Instinctual-Stackings.
ColdHeadishy SO/SX. You're the "best friend" of the six. About halfway down the page, it goes in-depth on your type. We'll talk more about stacking when we get to the Enneagram too, so it will click better. www.the16types.info/vbulletin/content.php/133-Instinctual-Stackings
No way! I am 90% SO and 42%SX AND SP! I had a tie for second. It really surprised me considering I am Introverted. After watching your video it made a lot more sense :) I really liked this video! Thanks Melody!
Removed.everything I said before. Wasn't really useful. Took the test but I don't think I can answer accurately. Maybe I don't have a set personality. Which I don't consider to be a bad thing. And I don't think people are always the same in every situation. What do you think? Also just noticed the change in channel name, no more minimalist?
I'm 50,42,37. But note that I don't really relate to the questions actually.. and I'm confused as to how to answer correctly. Why? Because my feelings aren't really a reflection of who I think I am. And even though I'm suffering from depression I don't consider this my personality. Also when I will be out of my depression, I am too aware of anything and I consider my personality to be very flexible. I can be passionate, but also very reserved. I can be very social, but also very withdrawn and focused on non social things. Also I don't consider self preservation an important factor in life, I feel like I am free inside in a sense where I don't fear losing anything regarding myself. If anyone could knock me down in some way, I'll always get back up. So I don't fear it and I don't bother with it. I can be very sexual. Very intense and passionate, but I can also be very calm and grounded. My scores will be different every time.
Tijmen J. I was confused on whether I was SX/SO or SX/SP a while back. I kind of wanted to be SX/SO because they're more invincible. They stand out more and are fine sleeping on a mat on the floor in Thailand. But it became clear to me when I looked at what I looked down on previously (trends) and also how disoriented I feel when my environment is in disarray, that I was SX/SP. I focus more on saving money and doing well in my career (SP) than going out/status/organizations. I put more info in the down bar to help you.
Took the test. Im SP/SX my SO is only 30% and my SP is 82%!! I definitely feel that this is me, especially when you explain it. I really do prefer to be just me. I nurture very few relationships, BUT i put my everything into them. I don't love easily, but I love/trust with everything I am. I feel like the SX can be sort of a weird thing to be told you are, but then when you think about the intense emotions etc that come with that more passionate side I can definitely see that in my daily life over the actual act of sex or things being sexual.
The difference between SX/SP and SP/SX is that SP/SX people are more serious and grounded. SP/SX puts self-preserving matters (career, health, comfort) over pursuing relationships; they are pillars of strength in a community. SX/SP will put money, career, and comfort on the line for immersion or relationships.
They are of the same energy flow: geared away from people, catalysts for change, realistic energies. Donald Trump has SX first so he is a lot more intense. Realists are more calm and steady in presentation versus jerky like me (excited, then flat). They are different Myers-Briggs, however, and energy is one small facet of a person. It is really important to me because it helps me to understand what those closest to me prioritize.
This makes perfect sense. Your description of an SO/SX & the results I got are pretty spot-on. Sexual||||||||||||||||||58% Social|||||||||||||||||||||66% Self Preservation|||||||||||||||50%
For the longest time, I've struggled to figure out whether I was sp/sx or sx/sp....but thinking about it further, I think I was a stronger "sx" when I was much younger than I am now. Sexual ||||||||||||||||||||| 70% Social |||||||||||||||||| 54% Self Preservation ||||||||||||||||||||| 62%
No political statement was made, just observation. Hillary Clinton is SO/SP like Obama. That is why she tends to lose her voice when speaking loudly and why both aren't enthusiastic, and Donald Trump is SX/SO - prominently activist-oriented. All three are of the realistic energy, geared away from people, catalysts for change. It has nothing to do with how I feel about them.
I am an INTJ (why I love watching you and relate to you melody!) and came out SP/SO. I am a psychologist and found this very interesting :)

I'm a SX/SO and blind spot is SP. it's so interesting and I'm so eager to learn more about all these. Thanks Melody for the information
Mia P SX/SO stands out the most of all six stackings. Even though it's the rarest, it's the most common celebrity stacking.
More Melody oh interesting. Again thanks Melody. I've been telling my friends to take this test. It's by far my most favorite (accurate) one
Interesting, thanks for the info!
I'm SP/SX :) thanks, this was fun. I'm your type ;-)

That was so interesting!!! I had never heard of this before and was so excited to learn more.
Please continue these types of videos!
I am SP/SO.

I don't feel safe in groups instinctually. It's tough for me to socialize, but I'm working at it haha! What did you get, Daniel Oshima?
More Melody I got a classic result for my condition, INTJ
Haha oh, INTJs are social...just on boards online 😂
Sorry, that was my Myers Briggs result. I have not yet taken this test

I am sure I am an SP/SX but will go take the test....

SX 58/SP 50/SO 38 - I would have guessed myself sp/sx not sx/sp :-) thanks for the video, I like to try and understand others even in our differences.

that's so interesting im gonna take the test i feel im quite a mix maybe with the sx part bit stronger I wonder what it will say

However, now I see your video again I think I might be SO/SX.

very interesting, this is the first time I heard of this :)
Sexual 82%
Social 42%
Self Preservation 58%
So...SX/SP?
I'm an introvert and have scored both INFJ and INFP on the MTBI tests.
Sexual:62%
Social: 46%
Self Preservation: 62%
Not sure what that makes me. SX=SP?
The difference between SX/SP and SP/SX is that SP/SX people are more serious and grounded. SP/SX puts self-preserving matters (career, health, comfort) over pursuing relationships; they are pillars of strength in a community. SX/SP will put money, career, and comfort on the line for immersion or relationships.
More Melody I'm for sure SX:SP then.
Makes sense. I am SP/SX
My results are equal across the board. 58% on each. What does that mean?
I think Donald Trump is very inspiring and optimistic. I thought Obama was very divisive. He seemed to enjoy riling people.
They are of the same energy flow: geared away from people, catalysts for change, realistic energies. Donald Trump has SX first so he is a lot more intense. Realists are more calm and steady in presentation versus jerky like me (excited, then flat). They are different Myers-Briggs, however, and energy is one small facet of a person. It is really important to me because it helps me to understand what those closest to me prioritize.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, understanding people helps us to be kind to them.
If I were beside you, I would not leave you carrying a sheet of paper for fear of you and your health

Also, if you don't mind me inquiring, are you INFJ?
Sorry Melody, keep the political statements where they belong.
