			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An ETLA is an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_three_letter_acronym">Extended Three Letter Acronym </a>- but you all knew that right?</p>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-Briggs_Type_Indicator">MBTI</a> (r) is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.  There are loads of unofficial personality tests on the internet you can take for free.  I tried a few and ENFP seems to sum me up very well. More importantly, my wife agrees.  </p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know what you think of these personality tests.  It&#8217;s very easy to use them to pigeon-hole and stereotype yourself and others with them rather than use them as <em>indicators</em>.  Personally,  I&#8217;ve found it useful to think about what I&#8217;m like, and therefore what kind of work might suit me best.</p>
<p>I came across these very funny reworkings of Reinhold Niebuhr&#8217;s <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serenity_Prayer">&#8216;Serenity Prayer&#8217; </a> for the 16 MBTIs at<br />
<a href="http://squarewheels.com/jokes/mbtiprayers.html">Squarewheels</a> and I share them for your enjoyment:</p>
<blockquote><p>ISTJ: Lord, help me to relax my focus on insignificant details, even though any of them may cause significant problems later. Begin this tomorrow at 8:31:04 am.</p>
<p>ISTP: God, please help me to consider other people&#8217;s feelings, even if most of them ARE excessively hypersensitive.</p>
<p>ESTP: God help me to accept responsibility for my own actions, even though problems are usually NOT my fault.</p>
<p>ESTJ: God, please help me to not try to RUN everything. But, if You need some help, just ask.</p>
<p>ISFJ: Lord, please help me to be more laid back and help me to do that EXACTLY right.</p>
<p>ISFP: Lord, help me to stand up for my rights (if you don&#8217;t mind my asking).</p>
<p>ESFP: God help me to take things more seriously, especially jokes, parties, conversation and dancing.</p>
<p>ESFJ: God give me the patience I need to deal with things more effectively, and I mean right NOW!</p>
<p>INFJ: Lord. Please help me not to be so perfectionistic! (Did I spell that correctly?)</p>
<p>INFP: God, help me to finish everything I sta..</p>
<p>ENFP: God, please help me to keep my mind on one&#8230; Look a butterfly!   thing at a time.</p>
<p>ENFJ: God help me to do only what I can, trusting you for all the rest. But would you mind putting that in writing?</p>
<p>INTJ: Lord keep me open to others&#8217; ideas, WRONG though they may be.</p>
<p>INTP: Lord, please help me to be a little less independent but in my own way, of course.</p>
<p>ENTP: Lord, please help me follow our established procedures today. On second thought, I&#8217;ll settle for a couple of minutes.</p>
<p>ENTJ: Lord, help me slow downandnotrushthroughwhatIdo.
