You may be wondering, who the heck is Myer-Brigg? And why are they telling me about my personality?

The Myer-Brigg personality was invented by a mother-daughter team who wanted to determine personality types based on Carl Jung’s theory.

There are four elements to the personality test:

1. Source of Energy

2. Perceiving Information

3. Processing Information

4. How Info is Incorporated Once Processed

There are 16 total personality types, broken into four groups: the analysts, diplomats, sentinels and explorers. You can determine which one you are here.

What’s important to keep in mind after you get your results, though, is that we all retain some degree of each letter, but in different quantities.

To the real deal now – this is where you should enjoy your Lenny and Larry’s cookie based on your Myer-Brigg Personality test.

INTJ: Work

INTJs are planners. They know exactly what needs to be done and they’ll get it done. With a cup of coffee, a Lenny and Larry’s cookie and a fully-charged laptop, INTJs are ready to check off everything on their to-do list.

INTP: The top of a mountain

INTPs love to find things out for themselves. They’ll stop at nothing (not even a mountain top) to find an answer to their most recent life questions. So, you’ll most likely find them climbing the next mountain peak because their thirst for knowledge is #unstoppable.

ENTJ: Doing a workout

If there’s a will, there’s a way. For ENTJs, anything is possible. So why not eat a Lenny and Larry’s cookie and do planks at the same time? Fitness? Check. Nutrition? Check.

ENTP: Volleyball Court

ENTPs love to debate. They value having in-depth conversations and will argue their point down to the fine details. Just like on the court, ENTPs can enjoy their cookies here as they toss their arguments back and forth.

INFJ: In the garden

INFJs are passionate about the causes they believe in. They go to great extents to make the world a better place, just as flowers do for people (see: photosynthesis). So, INFJs can be seen enjoying their Lenny and Larry’s cookies in a garden as they plant new seeds to bring more beauty to the world.

INFP: Meadow

INFPs are glass half-full people. They look for positivity amidst any evil they see in the world. INFPs share their thoughts with a select few, but when they do, they are elaborate and articulate. For this reason, INFPs can be found in a field, maybe with a friend, enjoying a cookie while pondering life’s complexities.

ENFJ: Home with the Dog

ENFJs are incredible motivators. Like a dog trainer, ENFJs are excellent at getting people up and at ’em.

ENFP: Picnic

ENFPs love to make connections with people. When going on small excursions like picnics, ENFPs will go to great extents to form relationships with new people. They’re intrigued by others stories and love to hear what others have to say.

ISTJ: Boat

ISTJs are rational. They think things through, just as a commander of a ship must do to sail safely to shore. With the skill and precision it takes to drive a ship, ISTJs have got it going on.

ISFJ: Baseball Game

ISFJs are true family men/women. They will do anything for their loved ones and sometimes neglect their own desires to help their family. Just as a baseball game brings together the family, so do ISFJs.

ESTJ: Historical Monument

ESTJs are natural-born leaders. Like many presidents, they know how to take charge and TCOB (take care of business).

ESFJ: Birthday Party

ESFJs live for social interaction. They love to listen to what others have to say just as much as they love to chat. Their warm and energetic persona makes a birthday party the perfect place to enjoy a Lenny and Larry’s cookie.

ISTP: Behind the wheel

ISTPs love to figure things out as life hands it to them. ISTPs are simply along for the ride and can enjoy their Lenny and Larry’s cookie as they figure out what to solve next on their drive through life.

ISFP: Doing Yoga

ISFPs like to probe into new perspectives. Whether it’s new ways to view life or approach a new situation, ISFPs are always open-minded. Seeing things from this upside-down perspective, ISFPs can enjoy their Lenny and Larry’s cookie in their fave yoga pose to find their new zen.

ESTP: Edge of a Cliff

ESTPs love to take chances. They constantly seek new opportunities, sometimes getting ahead of themselves. Before jumping off this cliff, they’ll enjoy a Lenny and Larry’s cookie before taking their final leap.

ESFP: Disneyland

ESFPs love to entertain. Like Disney World, they have a contagious energy that draws people in. ESFPs’ one love is to just enjoy life and have fun. And what better place to do that than at Disney?
