I am pushing this quite a bit of this at work lately. We are doing some informal exercises to learn more about ourselves, our co-workers, and our environment. We are learning about who we are and who others see us as and working to remove out blind spots.
I recommend you take the following survey to determine your personality type:
http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp
This is co-founded by Carl Jung. If anyone remembers way back on the Mothership I often refereed to his spot on assessment of Carson Palmer.
Once you determine your type you can better understand what pushes your buttons. I would also recommend that you have your significant other take it.
If you have questions or comments please feel to post them here. I am no expert, but I do have training. Others may be more of an expert than I, So also share your tools (stop it) and thoughts.

BTW, I am ESFJ. If you would have asked me prior to the exercises I would have bet the farm that I was a thinker and not a feeler.

ENTJ
But it could just as easily by INFP depending on what day of the week you catch me. The "N" is the only thing real consistent.

INTJ.
And I'm usually pretty skeptical about these things, but holy crap the write up was scarily accurate at points.

INFP
Which is pretty consistent with results from taking this test in the past.

I'm an ISFJ. I always find these kinds of tests really interesting.

Exactly. People think because their raw scores are close that there is no difference and that it is meaningless. But, if you read the actual profiles with only one letter changed (Example, changing your profile from INTJ to ISTJ) you get a signinficantly different type of individual. And it is a type, not a reduction of a person down to some traits. It is a type like blonde vs black, like sweet vs salty - it doesn't completely define someone but it shows patterns and tendencies and most people will see - if they read as you did - that the portrait is pretty accurate.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.

ISTJ, but I might have been less than truthful on a few.

An exercise we do at work is prior to taking the survey I have folks predict what they will be after a brief explanation of each category, then I have a few (5ish) peers pick what they see the subject as. After the subject takes the survey we compare the 3. This helps the subject better understand his or her facade (what we think we are, but others don't) and blind spot (what others think we are, but we don't.)

ENTP. Unfortunately, everyone else's outcomes prove they are doing it wrong. Thanks for playing.
