Asian Playboy : Conveying Personality
This is the first post in a series on personality. In this post I will offer readers some insights into Asian Playboy’s personality. I will cover what I think are the key traits of people with this type of personality and how they may differ from other people.
Of course, we cannot know what someone else’s personality is like unless they show us, and Asian Playboy does not like to show his cards easily. One way to tell about his personality would be through one of his photo collections that he has put together for our pleasure...
The question is what kind of personality is Asian Playboy? How can we determine his personality type? He produces a number of photo collections that show off his personality and this is the part of the series where I will give some insight into his personality.
First let’s have a look at Asian Playboy as a person and what he has to say about himself. Below are two quotes from Chinese blogs where he shares who he is and what he wants to achieve in life.
(source: Oriental Bunny Blog) ...I want my viewers to feel that even if only 1% of them choose to quit smoking and start exercising, I would be happy.
Q: “Do you ever have bad days?”
A: “Yes, I have had a few but they are just normal days. It’s good to notice that even the best athletes on earth have those kind of days. It’s okay to know your weaknesses and not be afraid of them. We didn’t start where we are now overnight and it won’t happen tomorrow either. If you say that you want success, it is okay for failure to happen along the way. Be careful with your plan but not with yourself because life is short, so enjoy what you do while it lasts.”
(source: Oriental Bunny Blog) ...I want to teach people that if they have a goal and mean to achieve it, then their life will be full of happiness and they will have a positive energy that makes them feel good. If they have the determination to work hard, they will become popular and have acceptance from others. If you work with a group of people who are ambitious in their own lives, your progress will be even greater than by yourself. These things can only happen if you follow through on your efforts. ...These are some of the thoughts about myself I get from my (Chinese) readers. These are just small sound bites. But I really hope that my readers understand that I am a person with a goal, who is not afraid of failure and does not just want to brag about myself.
I see so many people that want to be like me but after just a few days being like me, they are tired. They think I am someone who has no work and has never had any failures... The main idea from my original personality is to keep on going when it seems hopeless. Do not look down and pay attention to the process instead of the result. Be an amateur in this world full of professionals!
(source: Oriental Bunny Blog) ... On a personal level, I am a person who likes to stay fit, even when it is not necessary. I could just as easily be 5 years older than what I am now.
Zen way of living...
Zen way of living is about being responsible for yourself, for taking care of your own needs and that no one else takes care of you. Yes...it is a lot of work but the result is much greater than what you spend on yourself and on others. Nowadays we are eating food that is not suitable to our bodies and we feel that we have taken care of our own needs without anyone looking after us.
If you feel that you cannot care for yourself, then you will not be able to fulfill the needs of others. The biggest challenge in life is to love yourself first and then love others. If you do not know how to treat yourself, then how can you take care of others? Do not think about loving everyone around you because if people feel that they are being watched by someone or wanting their reactions or expecting something from them, it makes it harder for them to show their true self.
When someone feels secure and comfortable with what they are doing, they will start to like themselves more and develop a positive energy inside. They will become more confident and their personality will truly blossom.
There are a lot of aspects to the way I live my life. It is not just an Asian way of living but it is more in line with western standards because I like to be responsible for myself and feel that I have to earn what I am entitled too.
(source: Oriental Bunny Blog) ...I want people to know that they should love themselves inside and out before they can start loving others. If you do not know how to treat yourself, then you will find it harder to show concern and care for others, even if you love them so much. ...
...Back to my profiles
The fact that Asian Playboy doesn't show his cards readily on who he is makes it hard to tell his personality. From the pieces above, you can tell that he has a professional side to him, though at the same time he wants to remain himself as a person. He would like people's understanding and support what he does. I think this is one of his key traits and for this reason I see him having a positive energy about him that makes it easy for him to make others love what he does, whether it be in photos or videos. That’s why I see him as an ideal and perfect Asian man.
With the above said, it is time to tell you what his personality type is using the Myers Briggs Personality Typology test.
The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a set of psychometric tests designed to measure psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. This theory was first developed by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers based on the theories proposed by Carl Gustav Jung. The MBTI was developed from personality assessments developed by Jung that were published posthumously in 1921. ...It has been widely used for career counseling since the 1940s and is still in use today.
In the Myers Briggs Type Indicator there are 16 personality types, determined by 32 possible combinations of four preference scales. ...The four scales are:
An individual's personality type is made up of a combination of their 4 preferences. For example, an individual that has "E-I" as their first two letters will have an Extrovert (E) or Introvert (I) first preference with the second letter following it being their second preference which will show how they perceive their outer world. For people who are thinking in terms that relate to MBTI and how it affects them then this is called "the Jungian functions".
Conclusion:
MBTI Types for Asian Playboy:
ENTP - Extroverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving
(source: Wikipedia)
ENTPs are usually full of new ideas and project possibilities; they are driven to explore alternate ways of doing things. They have diverse interests and enjoy developing a range of skills. They have the ability to quickly see patterns in concepts and ideas and can apply logic to their understanding in such a way as to make decisions with confidence. It is not uncommon for an ENTP to understand a new but related concept, whereas a related type, such as an INTJ, may need more time.
