Smile Personality Type Descriptions
There are
four distinct personality types. No one type is better or worse than any other
type. Not everyone is purely one personality type some of us are a combination
of types. Each type description is for someone who scores high on one
particular type. If your scores were close on any of the types read the
description for both types to see what characteristics best describe you. You
may find that you are a mixture of types. If so, you enjoy having the benefits and
talents of more than one personality type.

quickly. You are impatient with people who waste your time. You tell it like it
