Take the Myers-Briggs Personality Test
Your Type is INTJ

INTJs apply (often ruthlessly) the criterion "Does it work?" to everything from their own research efforts to the prevailing social norms. This in turn produces an unusual independence of mind, freeing the INTJ from the constraints of authority, convention, or sentiment for its own sake... INTJs are known as the "Systems Builders" of the types, perhaps in part because they possess the unusual trait combination of imagination and reliability. Whatever system an INTJ happens to be working on is for them the equivalent of a moral cause to an INFJ; both perfectionism and disregard for authority may come into play... Personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, can be the INTJ's Achilles heel... This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals... Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense.
*Famous INTJs:*
Augustus Caesar (Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus)
William J. Bennett, "drug czar"
William F. Buckley, Jr.
Hannibal, Carthaginian military leader
C. S. Lewis (The Chronicles of Narnia)
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Governor of California
Rudy Giuliani, former New York City mayor
General Colin Powell, US Secretary of State
Lance Armstrong
Calvin Coolidge
Thomas Jefferson
John F. Kennedy
James K. Polk
Woodrow Wilson
Cassius (Julius Caesar)
*Mastermind*
Masterminds correlate with the INTJ Myers-Briggs type, and are introspective, pragmatic, directive, and attentive. Masterminds are highly capable leaders as contingency planning and entailment organizing is highly developed in them. Both contingency planning and entailment organizing are directive activities that tell the planner what activities to do and what order to do them in. Despite their leadership capabilities, masterminds prefer to stay in the background until others demonstrate ineffective leadership. However once in a position of power, Masterminds are highly efficient and willing to adopt useful ideas.
Masterminds are strong willed, self-confident and decisive. They are also highly theoretical and are the most open-minded of all the role variants[citation needed]. Before a mastermind adopts a theoretical notion, they insist on researching all of the available data and checking the idea against reality. Masterminds are suspicious of theories based on poor research and will discard ideas that cannot be effectively implemented.
Masterminds are highly pragmatic and will put forth a lot of time and effort in order to implement effective ideas. They are driven to solve complex problems and to create organized, decided, and executed solutions. Masterminds tend to say positive statements instead of negative ones, preferring to focus on how to make the organization more efficient in the future rather than dwelling on past mistakes.
The following individuals are identified as Masterminds:
Friedrich Nietzsche
Augustus Caesar (Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus)
Hannibal (Carthaginian Military Leader)
Stephen Hawking
Ulysses S. Grant
Niels Bohr
Peter the Great
John Maynard Keynes
Lise Meitner
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Ayn Rand
Isaac Newton
Donald Rumsfeld
