Wonderings 4

 Personally, I like to daydream, fantasize, wonder, ponder, IMAGINE life in a different perspective than what it really is...

1. What would it be like to live on another planet?
2. What would it be like to be a space traveler?
3. What would it be like to live to age one thousand?

What kind of person does this kind of thinking make me, outside of being different from you?

According to the Myers Briggs Personality Profile, I am an INTJ.  I know this is accurate because I have taken the test 4 times with 10 years having passed between each test.  My answer is always the same...  a solid INTJ.

The short definition of an INTJ, other than only being found in 2% of the general population is that:  I AM A BUILDER OF THEORETICAL CONCEPTS AND MODELS.  In other words, I imagine stuff...  how life should be perhaps.

It is very difficult for an INTJ to make friends, let alone create long lasting, strong friendships.

Think about that for a while.

This inability to make strong friends is going to IMPACT the question:  WHO AM I?

Not only is it going to impact that question but it is going to impact my:

SELF ESTEEM

SELF CONFIDENCE

because I don't make friend as easily as other people do.

I spent the first TWENTY YEARS of my life, wondering why I did not have many friends and virtually no close friends.  That kind of anxiety influences in a negative way one's behavior which only serves to exacerbate the situation.

Why don't they teach understand WHO AM I in elementary schools?  In high school it is rather too late because of other influences on our lives.
