Timely Types: The Psychology of Personality: From Jung to Myers and Briggs

Description

Are you sick of MBTI® books that only repeat what you already know? Do you desire deeper, more enriching connections with your loved ones? Are you tired of self-help books that do everything but help?  For years, countless people have relied on Mr. LeSure's proven insights into Jungian psychology, the Myers-Briggs type indicator and personality theory to improve their quality of life and establish fulfilling relationships. Mr. LeSure has now pulled his years of research, study and experience with personality types into this amazing, easy-to-use book.  MBTI's four-letter codes, like INFJ or INTP, don't merely describe personality types. These codes can also help people overcome their fears, boost their confidence and enhance their social lives. Most importantly, MBTI theory can empower people to understand themselves better. Carl Jung wrote, "It is a general truth that one can only understand anything in as much as one understands oneself."  Too often, lopsided descriptions have crippled those who thirst for the authentic, uplifting wisdom MBTI typology has the potential to unlock. While many Myers-Briggs resources do an admirable job describing the attitude of the conscious mind, most only touch the surface; because the psyche consists not only of the conscious mind, but also the unconscious mind.  Fortunately, Timely Types is guaranteed to assist those who are devoted to making the most of this powerful resource. Because it places the fundamental polarity between conscious and unconscious minds at the heart of its investigation, Timely Types not only outlines MBTI theory, explains the cognitive functions and offers compelling descriptions of all 16 personality types, it also restores Myers and Briggs's important work back into the broader context of Jungian psychology.  After reading this book, you'll know all about the following:  MBTI Personality Theory The Principle of Opposites in Jungian Psychology Introversion vs Extraversion Thought vs Feeling Intuition vs Sensation Judging vs Perceiving Carl Jung's 8 Cognitive Functions The Ego and Shadow Socionics The Psychological Patterns of the 16 Personality Types  About the Cover  "The difference between the 'natural' individuation process, which runs its course unconsciously, and the one that's consciously realized, is tremendous. In the first case, consciousness nowhere intervenes; the end remains as dark as the beginning. In the second case, so much darkness comes to light that the personality is permeated with light, and consciousness necessarily gains in scope and insight. The encounter between conscious and unconscious has to ensure that the light which shines in the darkness is not only comprehended by the darkness, but comprehends it." -Jung  If you need the peace and happiness that can only come from thoroughly understanding yourself and others, get your copy of Timely Types today.    Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, Myers-Briggs, MBTI and MBTI Logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of the MBTI® Trust, Inc., in the United States and other countries.
