Key INTJ Characteristics INTJs tend to be introverted and prefer to work alone. INTJs look at the big picture and like to focus on abstract information rather than concrete details. INTJs place greater emphasis on logic and objective information rather than subjective emotions. INTJs like their world to feel controlled and ordered so they prefer to make plans well in advance. Strengths Enjoys theoretical and abstract concepts High expectations Good at listening Takes criticism well Self-confident and hard-working Weaknesses Can be overly analytical and judgmental Very perfectionistic Dislikes talking about emotions Sometimes seems callous or insensitive Dominant: Introverted Intuition INTJs use introverted intuition to look at patterns, meanings, and possibilities. Rather than simply looking at the concrete facts, they are more interested in what these facts mean. People with this personality type enjoy thinking about the future and exploring possibilities. When remembering events, they may recall impressions more than exact details of what occurred. INTJs are good at "reading between the lines" to figure out what things might really mean Auxiliary: Extraverted Thinking As a secondary function in the INTJ personality, extroverted thinking leads people to seek order, control, and structure in the world around them. For this reason, INTJs can be very deliberate and methodical when approaching problems. People with this personality type tend to make decisions based on logic. They organize their thoughts in order to see cause-and-effect relationships Tertiary: Introverted Feeling INTJs use introverted feeling but because it is a tertiary function, they do so to a lesser degree than they use the dominant and auxiliary functions. Those who develop this aspect of their personalities more fully pay greater attention to values and feelings when making decisions. As a result, they may also feel more drawn to people and activities that are well-aligned with their values. Inferior: Extraverted Sensing In INTJs, this tends to be the least developed of their cognitive functions, but it does still exert some influence. This function allows people to experience process information through their senses. When this function is in play, people may feel that they are living in the moment and are energized by the world around them. Personal Relationships People with this personality type are introverted and spend a lot of time in their own mind. INTJs work best by themselves and strongly prefer solitary work to group work. While they tend not to be particularly interested in other people's thoughts and feelings, they do care about the emotions of the select group of people to whom they are close. In personal relationships, INTJs are willing to devote time and energy toward making these relationships successful. Other people often interpret INTJs as cool, aloof, and disinterested, which can make forming new friendships challenging.

My third boyfriend Life in America. My romance with Joseph continued from September to December and mid January. Things were great during this time. I was the luckiest girl in the world. I was the happiest in my life during this time. Maybe because Joseph was so loving, he knew exactly how to make me feel, he knew exactly what to do. He was as passionate as a true lover can be. Oh God, do I even want to remember how wonderful this time was? This was the best time of my entire life! I wish there was a way to frame this time forever at my bedside so the goodness of its memory would always fill my heart with joy. Joseph gave me the best and most sexy months of my entire life.. Joseph was special in a different way.

My third boyfriend I started craving Joseph. We decided to meet. I didn't want to move in with him because I was still with my family. Although I desperately wanted to marry Joseph, things would take a difficult turn in the next year and things won't be the same between me and Joseph. I met him at a bus stop close to my house in Seattle and then he showed me his house which was just a few blocks from the bus stop. This bus stop was a few stops away from my house. So I would get off the bus at his stop and then walk to his house. I did this plenty of times. I would never tell my family that I was spending time with him. It was all secret. I would normally tell them that I was just visiting a friend. Joseph had a southern accent. He was a macho. He knew how to make me happy. He was very romantic. Every time I was with Joseph, it felt like we were made for each other. He would serenade me. He was the sexiest guy I dated. He looked hot. He had strong legs. Joseph was a boxer. He was a boxing champion in school. He had already been married and divorced and he had a kid.. Joseph was a heart patient. He was much older than me.

Higher paradigm thinking. Think from a bigger tier. Higher wisdom. There is always a wisdom higher than yours and try to think from that tier. Leo's Structure Versus Content deals beautifully.... I need to think big picture think. But I'm going to reform it just a bit. Instead of saying big picture think I'll say high tier thinking. Think from the next higher tier of wisdom.

The problem of language, blabbery and Mental Gymnastics. The thing is that I always get tempted to easily react to mental gymnastics. It's tough not to. But I'll try. The other thing is the question "what's the point of blabbery?" The question I ask myself is "Why not invest in healing and aesthetics and more growth in non invasive/defensive ways? “ Growth does happen through antagonization and debate and relentless thought provocation. But can be stressful and overwhelming. Try growing through other positive non impactful and healing paradigm ways. Of course there is no denying that debates help in shadow work and understanding and learn the truth and the game of the world better, but it is a huge expenditure of peaceful energy, a huge cost in terms of restlessness and chaos Retain the peaceful energy and focus on growth instead.. The opportunity to grow through critical thinking is always at hand's reach. So don't suck into it. But rather start conscious focus rather than instinctive/intuitive focus. Or focus which is naturally inclined or allocated.

The other thing that I found with the brain is the problem of not only language and or interpretation of it but also that of perspective. Perspective leads to bias. It's like watching the prism. You see it from your angle and let's say it appears blue. From another angle or perspective it appears red. You can't say for sure if a perspective is right or wrong. But the perspective is right with regard to the context it has born from.

Sometimes the best moments in life are when you give up on everything and savor the moment. And just get dog tired at the end of the day. Like really really tired. And then you can say to yourself "this is so over" You don't want to deal with anything whether it's job stress, fights, family calling, work pressure, neighbors throwing tantrums, piles of mail... No no nothing. Nothing becomes more precious than this beautiful little moment like a small pearl in the palm. Just grab it and cherish it and say rest is bullshit. And then there is a tremendous sensation of liberation and freedom from stress. It feels like defeat but a sweet defeat is better than a painful victory. What's the point of fighting so hard to keep everything alive. Just jump into the pool and take a plunge and just surrender and release yourself to the feeling of emptiness and let go anything and everything. It feels like healing.

I guess there are tests for it.

Evil as a medium of expression or formation of good Also something that I label as bad must be originating from egoic needs and survival needs and structural needs. The need to continue in excellent condition. Example Let's say wax in its solid form is rigid. But when you burn wax, it melts. That's where it is released. The tension in the wax and its rigidity is released. Now let's say this wax is more pure because it's impurities have been burned out. And now it can easily mold into a desired shape.

I want to wake up everyday and look at this beautiful thing. I will call it the Circle of Hypnotica.
