Do something productive which will spur progress to a goal you have. Even if that's just working out or something because you want to be in better shape.
I haven't looked in to this very deeply (no surprises there :p) but I was under the assumption that 'life' was a concept applied to entities which are mobile and have some level of consciousness, or at least reasonable cognition.
In other words, bio-materials which is/are animated.
So long as you're having a good time, great. I personally wish I'd been far more pragmatic about achieving my goals, because by now I would have long since arrived. It would have been far easier to do it then (single; no kids) than it is now (married; kids; always hanging out of my arse with...
Looking back on your life and noticing that huge amounts of time were wasted is not a good position to be in. Sure as shit, if I could go back to being about 19 again my life would be very different.
'Youth is wasted on the young'. Mostly true.
Most people procrastinate a lot of the time. I myself am an expert at it these days, constantly using the 20/80 rule. This is due to being constantly knackered rather than bone-idleness, though. Kids are the fucking worst.
Glad to hear it - and likewise.
When it comes down to it, we're all stumbling fecklessly through this bizarre illusion we call 'reality'. It's good to occasionally look around and take note that everyone is struggling in some way or another - and that's ok, because we're just vaguely smart...
None of what you said there would preclude INTJ as an option, in my mind. Of course, it's nigh on impossible to type a stranger via an internet forum.
In my experience, the most immediately noticeable difference between INTP and INTJ is what's going on in their inner world. INTJs (speaking from...
Oh, and all this shit about finding your type? Throw it right to the back of the back-burner. The same topic drove me damn near demented when I was suffering with the depressionz. Every single thought and action was consciously scrutinised to the point of having a god awful headache for the best...
Sounds heavy, QT. I don't have much time (any time, ffs) to spend on a meaningful post, but - and I mean this with all due respect - your perception is quite clearly dramatically skewed because you're in an incredibly tough place right now. There's nothing delusional about hope, but I can see...
I once worked with a girl who was in an open relationship (married / had children). Her and her husband were biffing everything left, right and centre - just not one another.
She was a nice girl. Very fun and bubbly. Occasionally she'd bust into my office, grab my head and bury it deep in...
Less chasing tail, more 'fessing up, then.
This one time, I scared an old lady on a bike so hard (driving past in a car screaming "RAAAAARGH!" out of the window) that the last thing I saw as I disappeared around the corner was her shitting herself, losing control and slamming into some bushes...
At least you own it. That in and of itself is commendable.
I'm typically very opinionated around subject matters I know well. With everything else, I'm receptive to any new knowledge conveyed but typically keep my mouth shut. Unless I have something intelligent to say, I don't say anything...
Christ, no. I'm the worst :p
Just the other day my wife was slapping me senseless because I was teaching my 2 year old how to sig heil / simultaneously rub the area under her nose. Hilarious, right? Totally harmless fun.
My wife is Spanish, so when she started having a go at me for it, I...
So, the issue isn't that you have strong opinions - the issue is that you can't keep your opinions to yourself if someone expresses a view which counters your own.
Thus, you're 'one of those' people.
>_>
Why would you like to have fewer opinions? An opinion is formed when we figure something out to the point where 'it' makes sense to us. So, are you saying that you'd rather understand less about the world?
If so that's fucking stupid.
"The typing experience of this Thinkpad is superb. Great tactility; just the right amount of key travel. I'm actually seeing a boost in productivity because merely interacting with this keyboard is a pleasurable experience".
"... when did I become so unbelievably dead on the inside?"
Yeah, I guess it was. I've got a list as long as my arm of 'times I've unknowingly shit all over people'. I started replaying events in my head through a different lens when it was revealed unto me from on high that I favour Te, not Fe.
It was a bit of an "Ah... oh... aaaah" moment.
I can't recall anything specifically, as I do tend to be a decent person. However, I can certainly share some dick moves.
When I was but a young lad (24ish) I took a girl to a New Year party who, in retrospect, was very clearly an ESFJ. Now, me being me and therefore entirely oblivious to 'the...
Does anyone beat IxTJs on the seriousness scale?
Odd inappropriate joke aside, I'm always serious business... 'cause business is serious ¬_¬
Truthfully however, I simply derive very little (or none, usually) amusement from the shenanigans usually touted as 'fun' by other meat-creatures.
Yeah. The interplay between consciousness and reality is often pronounced. I truly believe in synchronicity, though what it all means is far beyond me.
Example 1: I was tussling recently with trying to fathom how I can balance my more practical side and the side of me which needs to be...
It's strange how we frame things differently. You say "Politeness" which makes me screw my face up in an 'ew - fuck that' manner; I frame it as 'decency / principles' which gives me a hard on. Maybe it's a Te thing. Or a British thing.
Stiff upper lip, what what!
Yes, of course. I usually sound somewhat robotic whilst trying to convey my genuinely sincere appreciation for someone going out of their way for me, but I do give thanks as and when the situation (in my mind) necessitates it.
It's a matter of dignity. I extend it to others who deserve it...
I've always found my interactions with ISTPs to be positive. In fact, the 'Se' sensors are (in my experience) all relatively fine to get on with.
Si, on the other hand...
