'So it's not just me who had people compete with me (without me knowing it), and then blow up in my face declaring their loss?  It's a general ENTJ thing? Now it all makes sense...|||I am very good at making money.  However, I hate thinking about what stuff costs, because to me that feels like too much of a limitation. I like being able to spend money indiscriminately, and I...|||My design, branding and advertising agency is named after a two-syllable Swedish derogatory term meaning roughly mean spirited caricature. I'm Swedish and my company is based in Sweden, so everyone...|||As practically everyone here has already said, I don't think she's even slightly interested in you. You should just leave her alone and go on with your life.  If a person is romantically or...|||I work as a freelance designer and programmer. Both these fields are no doubt creative.  In my free time, I compose music. Last year I've been working on my first symphony: five movements for...|||I can see some Te, but his metaphors and life as a story/game perspective tells me ENFP. Also, all these posts on his blog about the importance of focus tells me he is naturally unfocused and has...|||Yes, when I have to do something that I feel will lead me nowhere. Might be some freelance work I only took on for the money, or a service I accidentally promised to do for an acquaintance or...|||I think the question is weird. Human is what we call our species. What makes us human would therefore be that we are genetically alike enough to be considered the same species - the species we...|||Hey. This is important. You should get that eye checked up asap. A yellow eye only visible in flash camera pictures is an early symtom of Coats' disease. Consult a medical professional. ...|||Swede here, so we're getting close. If I show up wearing a lusekofta and start calling sharks kjempetorsk I might pass as one.|||I'm almost definitely 8w9. Never seen an entj 9w8 around here.|||I don't easily recognise my own emotional states. It always feels kind of neutral to me, but my actions are colored by what's going on on my inside.  I have trouble expressing my feelings until...|||I didn't say being liked was a requirement. I just said dragging someone from bed to do something can get the work done. I have to be close to someone in order to care if they resent me or not....|||I most often prefer the company of T types. Specifically NTs. Communication flows easily in groups with compatible interests. But NFs can be cool as well, as long as they are not F doms. Can be...|||Incompetence. You can find ways to motivate lazy people. And if that fails, you can drag them out of bed and make them do stuff.  Incompetence, on the other hand, takes time to correct.|||To everyone who still reads this thread: Just for the record, I have to make amends for some of my previous posts. I understand the thing Fe does now. I completely misunderstood its intent before,...|||I don't see the conflict. How is shooting people and storing them for sexual use later not helping them? Have you ever even met any people?  Silly, silly you.  Now I will stop wasting my precious...|||I have not needed a CV for four years now. I get my clients through other means.  Also I wouldn't want the people who pay me completely ridiculous money to know I completely lack formal education.|||This is gold.|||Acts of service > physical touch.  Then verbal affirmation and quality time on shared third position.  I couldn't care less about gifts. If I want it, I buy it.|||At work: Black chinos, shirts either deep red, purple or black. Sometimes open shirt with a t-shirt underneath. Sometimes plain black or red. Sometimes with a printed motif I find agreeable.  ...|||Thought translating directly into action. When I reach a conclusion, I act upon it without delay. It's automatic.|||I write prose, music and code on my free time. At work, I do mostly graphic design.  I try to plan my life so that I'm able to spend as much time as possible practicing different artistic skills.|||What color is your aura?|||If I end up in a new place, say I get a new job or something, I restrain myself a bit and test the waters. Then I expand slowly and steadily and show more and more of who I am, as I become more and...|||Before being justified in judging others like that, you have to make a comprehensive case for the illogical jumble of make-believe that is the idea of free will.  Proceed.|||I think correctly diagnosing yourself as an indigo child/adult/whatever is paradoxical, because they are supposed to be intelligent, yet you have to be a moron to believe such new age crap.|||You're a Te dominant.  1. Focus on external evidence to evaluate new ideas. 2. Focus on being right, combined with looking forward to being wrong. 3. Focus on achievements and results.  4. I'm...|||Nowdays I pretty much only do creative work. During office hours, I design and write code. Then I go home and draw, write prose and music.  I always start out with some kind of concept. I get this...|||Can't talk for everyone, but personally, I find I value human well being. Not life, maybe - but well being. I put a value on life as well, but only as a means to achieve future well being. I find it...|||One thing I have noticed is that people in general always tend to change their views if they are proven wrong.  Only problem is that most people treat their pet ideas differently than whatever...|||I have no problems admitting I am wrong when I've understood that's the case.  However, since I work from the assumption that I am right, it might take some convincing before I actually reach that...|||Of course the categories will say nothing about causality.  Milton Friedman is responsible for an economical and political doctrine that kills millions, and he's typed as INTP. Joseph Goebbels,...|||Just because they kill people they have personalities that can't be categorized?  They still have to process information and make decisions just like everyone else. What's the difference except...|||When I've really made up my mind about something, I can go into bulldozer mode. Some kind of not entirely healthy Te-Se loop thing, I think.  During bulldozer mode, everything that slows me down,...|||Of course the positions of arbitrarily defined constellations made up by humans define who we are.  Of course there is profound truth in the equally arbitrary manmade symbolism we imposed on these...|||Is it just me or does this happen all the time, particularly in the ENTJ forum?|||1. My long term goal is building skill in areas that are relevant to my interests. What I am going to apply these skills to, I don't know yet. I have a vague idea that points me roughly in the...|||lol @ determining type from political standpoints.  I am most definitely ENTJ, and I definitely lean quite a bit to the left. I am also a feminist in principle, only I tend to avoid that word.  I...|||I keep my day job mostly to the office. That way my mind always puts itself in work mode on my way there. I have some difficulties concentrating on such things when there are tasks I'd rather do...|||The top 100 things I'd do if I ever became an evil overlord  It's a classic.|||http://qzprod.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/robots-manufacturing-cars.jpg http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SgS6QI29PlA/UjIcdsJKOfI/AAAAAAAAAKg/qlZ3nELlGMA/s1600/terminator+arm.jpg...|||84153 84154 84155 84156|||What post? Have I said I was going to post something?|||At first I was going to write a long, elaborate and serious post on this subject. Then I scrolled down and saw the baking cat in your signature, and was overcome with a manifold of fluffy feelings....|||Got the sense that OP wastes periods (.) by writing three of them out every time she needs one.  Also got the sense OP wasted $60 on a completely useless test just to prove something, right after...|||Indeed. Most people are quite nuanced, and I am sure a mature, healthy, well rounded ENTJ-ENFJ couple could learn to compromise and communicate to lessen the impact of their differences. But as far...|||I think that typologically, it looks like a matchup from hell. Maybe the second worst pairing for the ENTJ type, only beat by ENTJ -ESFJ.  In ENTJ - ENFJ pairings, the top function of one part is...|||I am aware that I posted weak evidence. Still, however, I posted evidence. Weak evidence is better than no evidence at all, which is exactly what you brought to the table.  What these studies show,...|||Wrong.  Faulty thinking because single instances never say anything significant about a statistical average. These are not points on a scale, but bell curves that overlap to a large extent. The IQ...'
