MY IQ IS OVER 90

I'm doubting my analysis too much... it sounds too bullshitty. I can see it (function order) sometimes, but often it's too difficult. I don't have a clear enough view of it this time, but I still think it's a good possibility. But only go with it if it seems to make sense.

Hey, so I do still think from the video that you're ESFP... I was doing my analysis of which function is being used at each time, but I quickly became distracted from that process and instead just focused on the words that you're saying, so probably your Se energy activated my own Se and I...

So if you saw it, a while ago I typed you as ESFP based on a poem you wrote, and I'm gonna go back to that typing. INFJ doesn't hold up. See, with a lot of your posts, they are written in a way like "this is how it is" or "this is what's going on", and often after that it will be something...

You are who you are regardless of what piece of analysis you're identifying with, but what you identify with does have a profound impact on how your mind functions at the time. If you wish to change yourself, simply enact that change. It's not about where you are now, but where you can go...

Well, I don't think the subject matter matters much; what I would need would be a longer video that shows all 4 functions from dominant to inferior (a video of say, 10 minutes would generally show this, but it varies), whereas I think this video only shows dominant and auxiliary, so there's more...

awesome lol xD I'm not sure how to type you, but let's guess at INFJ.. - first part of the video is like "this is what will happen in the video" like prediction - second part of the video is like, the people element of it, this person said/did such and such in social situation so it could be...

quite nice

the link doesn't seem to work

Could you elaborate on what you mean by stilling the mind/body in time?

I think you're viewing F and T in terms which aren't inherently related to the function themselves. It can be observed that the 8 functions really operate, in the order that is usually described. F and T are reasoning processes - the 4 judgement functions are divided by personal/impersonal and...

That's where you're wrong - unless you have some out of this world mind that doesn't operate on the functions like everyone else does, you were using cognitive functions the entire time. I didn't parse the text for which ones you were expressing, but I don't need to to know that you were.

My guess is INTJ, based on my new approach 0:00 - 7:20 Ni (theory) 7:20 - 13:00 Te (critique) 13:00 - 19:10 Fi (personal factor) [my term here isn't quite to my liking] 19:10 - 21:53 Se (present activity) -- Regarding the actual content of the video: I obviously agree that there's strange...

Well it was never meant to be a 100% behavioural predictor, but that's not the point of the thread.

I don't know enough about it, to me it's so far just a hypothetical. Crisis situations are associated, by Nardi, with extroverted sensing. Now, I'm not saying that there's not all kinds of stuff that can't be categorised under a function, but what I mean is: at any given time are we...

We may have different views on what psychosis is. Actually, when I speak to my case worker it is as if we mean completely unrelated things by the term. That's a good way to look at it - if I and E represent 2 perspectives where either one must be applicable, and we could say the 4 base...

We all have a blindspot, which is our very own self. (I don't quite know what that means, but it's supposed to be deep) Have you read the Bhagavad Gita? Arjuna realises he must fight only after a vision from Krishna; no amount of rational discourse could convince him. Some say we...

Hmm, yes there is debate about whether we consciously use 4 or all 8 functions, although I believe it to be all 8, however we usually use the function order associated with our primary type. What I say about using all 8 functions doesn't mean anyone can be like anyone. If we were to suppose...

Celebrity types is BS lol I'll most likely get around to doing a more careful analysis of you at some point, but have you considered INFJ? I don't think J's necessarily have their shit together, I'm lazy as hell. (hm, I feel that we're getting too off topic now) + I'll add that lacking skills...

Since being able to identify which cognitive function I am using at a given time, I have been quite shocked to find out that, pretty much all the time, I am using one of the 8 functions. This leads me to ask the question: What kinds of cognition can not be put under the banner of one of the 8...

^Reznor is an INFJ right? (going by those videos; I type by the words someone says) How do you type yourself, TMB? (all I know of your type for pretty much certain is that you share the same type as one of my friends, but I'm not sure of his type) What do you mean by not concrete? They're...

Well, I'm convinced by your OP that it exists. Internal contradictions of the system. If reason implies not reason by its own system of reason, then not reason is the answer.

Then I would probably end up misreading them as Fe-Ni-Se-Ti and hence use incorrect data points to better understand how Fe works and get confused as a result. I'm not expecting that to happen, though. If it were conclusively shown that someone uses a function order outside of the norm, then...

I hadn't meant it to be a negative side effect. Actually, the idea of increasing the level of uncertainty regarding future states is quite a thrilling one to me. I like to gamble, after all, and I love free will. But assuming you're referring to something like meditation, this is definitely...

I spent my last maths class doing active imagination in the room around me. It fit the subject - I was automatically visualising things like a giant infinity symbol going through the room, and a complex 3D graph.

Eh it's hard to explain fully but I'm somewhat able to "see" it now, both through text, video and by looking at how my mind functions. It comes down to function order: a section of thought is initiated by the dominant function, and then moves into the auxiliary and then tertiary then...

I wrote a rap earlier:

But there's no INTP gene, and not just anyone can be an INTP!!

well i'm perpetually pissed off because i get forced to take antipsychotic meds. but i still have fun. eminem is good to listen to and i just watched a video about mk ultra, swag :elephant:

Attempting to do so may have the reverse effect - actually increasing the uncertainty regarding what is occurring. I think an analogy might be a bike, which will wobble more if you slow down. Certainly stilling your body/mind is a worthwhile goal anyway, and could have quite fun effects.

I meant that I didn't know why you mentioned it the first time i.e. how it was relevant to what I had initially said. It seemed unrelated. I often try to give my posts a conclusive sort of feel, I don't recall if I was actually trying to wrap up the conversation.

add it to your pokedex :D

Your mistyping of me is concerning, and a barrier (not too major) in accepting your ideas. Now, I would say my video ("Discussing MBTI - INFJ?") was a bit misleading, in that about 2/3 of it (from around 1 minute to 7 minutes) was Ti based, but how you could get Ne from that is a bit beyond me...

I don't quite know why you brought up conformity at all, actually. So, comfort could be like the resting stage in between higher energy activity - working towards, as you said, new mental and physical achievement, but is not to be the goal in itself. Useful for what it is, one thing among...

Time is a multi-dimensional entity, and we only move at any given time in a particular direction, constantly shifting - our space-time velocity. So, if you get the idea of a linear timeline out of your mind, the paradox never even occurs.

I knew since the start of primary school at least, that I was particularly smart. However, when I topped the state in a competition is probably when I realised that the gift extended beyond what I thought it did.

Suffering is like the recognition that there is a far better, more alive, place to be. Comfort also implies that there is a more alive state. We know that we can be better, because better is a place in our consciousness. Part of being conscious implies a differentiation of form between...

You might want to think about changing this view.

Well, hey, it's your topic! I think it was a sense of "this person thinks in a similar manner to how I think". I wouldn't place too much stock in the MBTI test. Cognitive functions are the better way to look at it, but there's barely any useful information on them from the majority of...

Well - get to work!

Life, by Marshall Mathers.

This echoes back to what I said about a bounded space: if we conceive of ourselves as purely human, then we are limited by what it means to be human (although evolution means humanity will evolve into a new species at some point, not counting artificial means of altering the genetic code). When...

Smoking is so hard to quit... I've wanted to quit since not long after I started, but building up the motivation to go through with it is very difficult. When I've tried, I've developed huge amounts of anger which could potentially be very destructive. I've tried to cut down, but my rate of...

Nai'Xyy!!1 jks lol Is there enough info there to base a typing off of? hmm

hello john smith welcome to the forum how are you today artsu

Well, I did have the impression from the start that you were an INFJ... (like myself) - and certainly learning at a tremendous rate; kudos

I quite like the effect that this thread has had on me - I spent much of today in active imagination, for example, today there was a giant serpent following alongside the bus, amongst many other creatures. The reaper often seems to follow me around. Active imagination of creatures and patterns...

In the future, people will speak about how foolish we were to suppose we live in the present moment, when quantumly speaking, we have aspects of the past and future in our experience as well - failing to realise that when we speak of the present, we are inclusive of these things as well (i.e. 2...
