I took a personality test.

Apparently I am a "D/I"

Dominant, Direct, Task oriented, Decisive, Organized, Outgoing, and Outspoken.

“D/I”s are curious concluders who place emphasis on the bottom line and work hard to reach their goals. They are more determined than they are inspirational, yet their high expectations and standards for themselves and those around them typically causes them to make quite an impact, motivating others to follow them. They have an array of interests and can become distracted by taking on too many projects. They often need to focus, prioritize, and simply slow down. Because “D/I”s thrive on activity and forward motion, they like to accomplish tasks through a large number of people.

Ways You Can Better Yourself (Myself):
A. Strive to listen to other people more attentively. B. Try to be less controlling and domineering. C. Develop a greater appreciation for the opinions, feelings and desires of others. D. Put more energy into personal relationships. E. Show your support for the other team members.

Your (My) gifts:

leadership
The gift of leadership is the strength or ability to influence people at their level while directing and focusing them on the big picture, vision, or idea.

craftsmanship
The gift of craftsmanship is the strength or ability to plan, build, and work with your hands in construction environments to accomplish multiple applications.

administration
The gift of administration is the strength or ability to organize multiple tasks and groups of people to accomplish these tasks.

discernment
The gift of discernment is the strength or ability to identify falsehood and to distinguish between right and wrong motives and situations.


Thoughts? I'm not sure exactly how to interpret this.

I, ofc, only know you from the forum, but you have posted enough for us to gain a glimpse into your personality.

Yes, that describes you well.

How to interpret it? It just means that you probably answered honestly and that it is a reasonable test.

I will have to presume that any of the listed personalities in this assessment also come with the sections you outlined, so every personality would get a "how to improve yourself" section. I would not worry about it. You have a "good" personality. Don't try to change it. Yes, dominant people would probably benefit from listening more, but every personality probably would as well.

Well, I know for a fact I have issues with sections B and D on the improving yourself section.
