Introduction
What we present in this book
The book (discover your personality pattern according to MBTI theory)

classifying the characters. It tells us the theory and provides us with a
historical overview of it. The theory evolution and standards, and how to
form the sixteen patterns of human personalities and a summary of each
type.
What we present in Chapter one

is based on. We specifically focus on the standards and how they are used
to develop different personality patterns according to the MBTI theory.

Firstly: What are the personality tests and why
do we need them?

How do we change ourselves if we do not know them well?
Who among us does not want to change for the better? Who does not
want to get rid of all the qualities that he does not like in himself and
develop positive qualities that help him to reach what he wants and enjoy
his life? We all want that. we all want to change, all according to his
special way, there are who want to become more fearless, and there are
who want to become calmer and give up the excess nerve. there are who
want to be able to make the right decision at the right time. there are
who want to be able to form relationships and friendships with many
people, and so on.
We also want to be able to know the qualities of others and identify their
personalities, and then how to deal with them based on their
personalities, in the workplace. this is very important, as your ability to
deal with your colleagues and your bosses and your subordinates, it
would be better if you can understand the personality patterns of each
one of them and then deal with each individual according to his
personality pattern.

Whether you want to change your personality or understand someone
else's personality, this is possible, of course. however, how is that possible
if you do not understand your actual personality? in order to be able to
change your personality then you have to know and understand it first,
and the question that arises here, do we really know ourselves?
Fundamental model
the fundamental model comes to answer this question.the fundamental
model assumes that there are things that a person knows about himself
and people know it too as his name, shape, his talk way, and his basic
characteristics that everyone knows. There are things that a person know
it about himself and people do not know it about him which called the
invisible area that considers usually some staff which a person hide it from
people around him
in addition, there are things that people know it about him and a person
does not know about himself.it may be simple information or may be
deep and complex issues related to the feelings of inadequacy and lack of
self-confidence or seriousness and rejection and such things that may not
be known about himself. also, there are things that not be known about
himself and people do not know then as well.it determined after doing
some tests like blood type, your level of English, social intelligence,
emotional intelligence and so many things

Fundamental box
Fundamental box They know it They do not
I know it
I do not know it
The fundamental box contains:
Things I know as well as people (my name, my nationality) general things
things I know and people don’t know it
things people know and I don’t know it
things I don’t know it as well as people(it
determined after doing some tests like blood type, your
level of English, social intelligence, emotional intelligence).
So we do not know everything about ourselves and those
around us
All humans have different attributes, God -Almighty wanted us to be
different, and did not create us identical, and did not want to be
recitations of one nature, but wanted to be different and diverse. God
Almighty declared about this difference in more than one place in his
holy book

{If thy Lord had so willed, He could have made humankind one people:
but they will not cease to dispute.} [Surah Hud- Verse 118]
{In addition, if Allah had willed, He could have made you [of] one
religion, but He causes to stray whom He wills and guides whom He
wills. and you will surely be questioned about what you used to do}
[Surah An-Nahl Verse 93]
Therefore, human beings attributes are different, and this difference is
very necessary for the continuation of life, each of us has a role in life.
These different roles require different characteristics and attributes of
course, and no one can be assured of his knowledge and ability to
communicate with all types of people. One of us may find a difficulty in
dealing with those who differ from him in personality traits and
characteristics. Different jobs may require people of different stature.
There are jobs that require leadership traits. There are jobs that require
the ability to communicate with people. There are jobs that require a
great deal of intelligence and high concentration. There are jobs that
require decisiveness and taking decisions, and so on.
Personality Tests
From here, there is a need to develop clear standards, which can be used
to determine all different patterns of human’s personalities. Many scientists
have tried over the years to develop tools and criteria, which can be used
