Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!
Sounds like I'm pretty typical then for an Introvert.

I finally decided earlier this year that the only solution was to become a more extraverted and social introvert. It's not easy at first, but once you get going, life is great!

I agree. Since I started working and having to deal with clients and go into people's homes, I've become more social. It certainly doesn't come naturally, but I think it's good for me.

Seriously, though, what kind of environmental interests do you mean?
|
Mostly, I'm interested in 'Green Design' (for buildings, homes, etc). Not using products that are unhealthy and so forth.

I'm a little surprised an ISFJ would be caught dead without a really detailed long-range plan to work too hard at
|
I'm surprised too. I've generally had one and I feel off-kilter without one! I think I have a very 'long-range' one, which is fairly general, but it's my 1-5 year that's not in place. I think part of it is that there has been a lot of changes in my situation - family dynamics, financial etc. Things change, stuff happens and I have to revise things. I also have this tendency (and it may not be ISFJish) to agree to things which once I actually do them, I end up disliking. So I find myself in situations which I feel I can't get out of.

What exactly does being an interior decorator and/or professional organizer entail? I've never even heard of the latter.
|
As an Interior Decorator I make spaces functional and (hopefully) beautiful. In some cases I work with people to help them organize their spaces rather than changing aesthetics. A couple of clients with ADD wanted me to decorate, but first I had to set up storage, a filing system for their papers etc.

Be forewarned, however, that MBTI and this forum can involve a lot of complex, abstract ideas. That may be a nightmare for someone with inferior Ne, but I hope you can bear with us and offer your insights and questions

Thanks! I've noticed that. Hopefully it won't be like my college philosophy class (total nightmare). LOL
