I can't help but feel that this is drawing on a distinction reminiscent of the Fi vs Fe divide; that one's personal or social approach to right and wrong is something varying from individual to individual, and that previously the divide was of a more fundamental nature, which splits into...

I dunno man... I feel like if I was more resourceful I would have bailed from uni years ago and found something else. But I had no ideas of what to do, I crumbled and got stuck in a loop of study study study. It should one day? one day? maybe lead to something worthwhile. My advice is to think...

To take one to further heights of creative experience; the manifold layers of experience reflecting and contorting amongst one another in the creation of ne'er before seen patterns of phenomenlogical effect. That one should tap into the potential inherent within every particle of reality and...

YOUR PERSONALITY TYPE IS: MEDIATOR (INFP-T) 77% introverted, 71% intuitive, 59% feeling, 64% "prospecting", 73% turbulent Gets it right other than the J vs P axis. My planning nature isn't so much directed towards individual tasks and schedules, but rather to the longer term development of my...

me: INFJ mum: ENFP dad: INTJ I think having an INTJ father put me on the stupid path towards studying maths and science. But that may have happened anyway. He also encouraged me to study music at a young age, and art is important. My secretiveness meant that I didn't speak to my parents much...

That is illogical.

49% INFP 17% INTP 14% ENFP 7% ENTP 3% INFJ Well, at least INFJ was SOMEWHERE on the list. I felt like the J questions fit with SJs better, 'haps not.

I would say you're basically right that there are more mistypes in the direction of xSFx due to ... maybe not necessarily "trauma" per se, but difficult life experiences, but that there will also be some mistypes in the direction of xNTx, however this will have to be quite rare. Many males with...

Been there, done that. Let me tell you, it was focken skitz.

I've certainly considered it for you. Check out our first posts in this thread: https://intpforum.com/showthread.php?t=26322 We seem to have similar themes guiding the development of our thoughts. edit: I love how in the thread I posted, we were both typing up responses at the same time, and...

My recommendation is to spend time thinking about your overall focus in life. What do you want to eventually achieve? What is the best way to make moves forward given then incomplete picture of what you hope to achieve? Listen to the messages your psyche sends you. You'll probably get...

Uh, keep in mind that taking a quiz is a rather awful way of determining personality type. It takes a lot of time and may never pay out, but basically the answer is to get a better grasp of typology, such as what each dichotomy means, what each cognitive function means, and what these would...

You're talking about personality type like it's something that can change. That's not how it works, it's something ingrained, but let's suppose we change the definitions around so that type is malleable, by associating it with how you would score on an MBTI test. So, I'm an INFJ, but in an...

They're both attempts to map out the psyche into 8 cognitive processes, however they use different descriptions and function orders for the types. The socionics function order and intertype relations are incorrect, and I am unsure how the model got as much information associated with it as it...

the only lyrics needed

Probably INFJ overusing Ti due to HSP, as is the norm 'round these places.

Velocity is the term for the link between time and distance, and as we now know, the speed of light is a constant, thus light provides a basis for spacetime. There is some speculation about information that can travel faster than the speed of light, such as quantum entanglement. And the speed...

I'm pretty lax with what people talk about, open to whatever... however people don't usually say things that I know how to respond to, y'know?

The MBTI test itself is pretty dodgy, but that's because all self-report tests are. The actual idea that our brains work based on 8 cognitive functions, one of which is the dominant etc. is really solid and groundbreaking. It'll get there. Who cares if academia accepts it, academia isn't all...

Experience: intensity of experience.

Interesting: Pod'lair makes a prediction about what I am experiencing. It is called the Shut-down System Sequence. My Se has been shut-down, and guess what? Now Ti is beginning to shut-down, which is negatively impacting my studies. And guess what happens after that? Fe will shut down. ... Then...

Heh... it's difficult for me to not frame it in typological terms... because I sense that what is happening is that I'm realising on an implicit level that Se is not going to fulfill me, but rather Ne is. So it's like the Se is receding somewhat so that it won't be such a significant focus and...

I think it resembles the whole universe, which I take to be a sphere with a neuron-like membranous structure embedded within it. As above, so below.

Well, first of all, don't base too much on assumptions like what type you are, what type your wife is etc. For one, you may have it wrong. Now, as for feeling that the real you isn't valued by others - I think that's a common thing many people suffer from. Society values certain modes of being...

Be your own disciplinarian and live by your own rules of conduct.

Same; and I'm of the belief that the important thing about reading it is more about the overall changes it enacts in how you view things. The details may be lost, but it will have a small but persistent effect on your beliefs and values that will apply more generally. A transformative effect if...

Effect on functions? I would say that my Fe comes out more. The social anxiety is significantly reduced so I'm less refrained and can talk much more. It probably also lets the Se out more (due to the sensual nature of the activity maybe) so extroversion all 'round!

Things that are relative and things that are subjective are still real. Goodness exists as an absolute measure, and to think otherwise is to fall into nihilism in which nothing means anything, and at that point we may as well not be nihilists, because not being a nihilist is consistent with...

Andy Kaufman applauds you! :P

Ugh, something certainly seems wrong and I can't quite place my finger on it. I'm not thinking things through as well as I should. I'm jumping the gun on many things and forming opinions without considering the necessary facts. Maybe it's a sign I need to reflect more on what I'm doing.

ENFP, yeah. Dominant function is objective and exploration based (implying looking towards things not mentioned) with an auxiliary of feeling (emotion/values) based judgements.

I think it would be the type that shares the same 4-function order with the orientations reversed, e.g. for INFJ it would be ENFP. People are different, they display different aspects of themselves and are in touch with themselves to varying degrees. An immature type is probably less in touch...

I think there is a spirit plane overlayed with the real plane that contains all sorts of creatures, and these creatures can manifest in quite clear forms through hallucinations (note: hallucination doesn't mean that the thing isn't real outside of your mind (though what is real outside of the...

Couldn't your avatars be representing your Anima though?

No good and bad? Wow... So every choice you make is absolutely pointless. I suppose there is no free will either. What a useless philosophy.

ok, nevermind then

You have not learnt how to fit into the mode in which English is taught which does not mean you suck at it just as someone could understand or not understand maths depending on whether they learnt how to do it and enter that mindset, so I would say do not rule out the humanities side, and there...

Ti for the INFJ is a lower function, common to be overused by the male INFJ (maybe female too?) and ultimately interfered with healthy functioning if done too much or rather to say that there is a better way to do it and that is to focus first on the Ni and second on the Fe (and not to forget...

the eyes are the gateway to the soul of course intelligence can be seen in them unless intelligence is a false notion but to think it is not shown is ignorance

I think the fact that my thoughts tend to not be in words, or not be in complete sentences, is why I have a lot of communication difficulties. Methinks writing more would help me to become more articulate.

intpforum is a drug and i need to get my fix But seriously, I used to come onto this forum even back when I was extremely paranoid of the members here. There's something about the place that keeps me coming back. I use some other Typology related forums but I've stopped posting on them for the...

Yeah, I was thinking this after reading the first part... like if we live in a simulation, so what? What are the actual implications? Things are still as real as they feel. But it's interesting at least to think of how it's possible to program a universe such as this from some higher plane. And...

Well, it's based in your Fe. You welcome the input of others in helping you to make informed decisions. I do agree that there is an oddness of enjoying the inferior, but I as an INFJ enjoy sensual experience, as long as it is not forced on me. I would suspect that you may dislike having pressure...

^this fits the form of an extroverted judgement. I highly suspect that you are INTJ. To elaborate a little... it has a judgement nature to it, in that it is expressing a truth, and that truth is expressed as a process rather than an A = B proposition of Ti, and it is also logical in nature...

INTP - Ti (these are judgements, the kind Ti would use) - Ne (perception based/descriptive statements - key words like wonder, and uses abstract concepts. Also gets somewhat concrete - Ne is blurring with Si here) - Si (gets concrete with mentioning the activities - just listing rather than...

...civil engineer? What gave you this impression?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8ma8adKm4I oh dear XD

Is the first you? And the second higs. I didn't know about the football team, but Auburn is a place in Sydney, which makes it a bit of a lame clue since not many people would know that, but I figured there was enough other stuff in the question go on. And yeah, muller as in "one who mulls"...

Oh, oh, I have one! ekaps suth
