You needn't do so. All I ask is that people take something from my overly uptight criticisms.

But it's true. It's no overly uptight, you spoke a fact. And that fact showed that I didn't think in a basic math 1 level. it's emberrasing. Also I did not know your tone as this is over the internet and so didn't know if you were teasing me nicely or meanly.

PS: Wana know a secret I heard? ENFPs put emotioncons in there text Because we get emotional and don't want others hurting us. That is the truth, it's not about them (not hurting their feelings), it's about us (not getting our feelings hurt).

Same goes with the whole loving everyone. We try to love everyone because we want them to love us (so that we can be loved). We want to be loved because we can't stand thinking we arn't (low self-esteem?). But that's just a theory.

Eh. It seems to make sense to me. Sometimes I get emotional. But it mostly has nothing to do with external sources.

So, I realized that if I cock my head to the left, I get an incessant ringing in my ears. That bothers me.

Can you give me an example please?
I knew an ENFP, she understood the general idea of things but left out important details and added extra ones. What I'm saying is, don't think you know before you know even if you know you know that you know because you might not know all of it y'know? Stay focused and commit.

Also if you mean critical thinking like being analytical and all that, just try to slow down, detach and think. It may be hard to substitute Fi for Ti, perhaps you could take a course in logic or critical thinking?

1) My problem is, how do I know I truly "know" something and it isn't just a false belief that I know something?

2) Have you ever heard of any courses that teach critical thinking??? Please tell me because I will take them (I have been looking).

1.) If you want to see if you understand something, break down what was said or what you read and explain it in your own words. Instead of focusing on the main points, try to get the details. Repeat->Paraphrase->Reflect

2.) College classes?

Thanks for the advice, and I am currently in college (a freshman) and, out of all the classes I see listed, none are for critical thinking specifically. The best I can think would have such a teaching is in a communications class. Has anyone taken a communications class who can tell me if it would help me with what I need? Or, if not, give me some advice on a class that might?

well my brother in an ENFP I didn't realise that then you said you liked my ([{}]) brackets because that would be something he would say.

Yup, vey inventive in my mind! I like that. Something new (and unique) that i've learned that I can actually use. Did you come up with the brackets on your own or did that idea already exist?

I just started clarifying/going of in an odd train of though(which wasn't necessarily important) my brackets in brackets and no I haven't seen it used before.

I was never good at introducing myself.

Maybe it was because of my lack of effort.

Anyway, I'm at a loss for words.
Just say something interesting. For example, I decided to stop watching the Colbert Report because I didn't want to be misinformed with leftism, and I came to my senses after watching an episode of Dan Rather Reports on HDNet. Dan Rather exposed the lie of big agriculture, that Americans refuse to work in the fields so they must hire foreign temporary laborers, but actually they don't even give poor unemployed Americans a fair chance, and foreign temporary laborers are more easily abused and cheated. But Stephen Colbert, uncritically, spent a few episodes promoting that lie and went as far as to go in front of the House of Representatives with it.

Poor Pbuoy. His thread was so hijacked.

Really? Two classes in the college I am going to next year are "Introduction to Logic" and "Introduction to critical thinking."

Hi Pbuoy! I'll give the spotlight back to you now :)
