Default How is it like to be P ?

There were some threads about other letters but I think this was never done for the P.


I am trying to understand why they like spontaneous behaviour and dislike or don't want too much organisation around them.

This should be enough to get us started.

For me it means being able to take advantage of a situation as soon as it happens. I don't ever feel like I have to stick to a plan. Now I'm often making plans in my head, and then constantly modifying them and remaking them. At any time I can dump my plan and make a new one. When I have a goal I stay open to the most amount of different avenues to achieve that goal.

To tell you the truth I think this is mostly because you are NT not P.

I say this because all NTs have some kind of a vision so some kind of a general plan exists. After all it is quite ilogical not to have any kind of a plan.

For example your posts sounds like that you have much common with me and jet I get 100% J in many occasions.

I always have a plan or more of them but my plans are always flexibile and there is always room for improvment.


It would be really good that more non NTPs join the thread.



I am trying to understand the logic of Ps and what do they want to achieve with it. (I know that my aproach is totally J )

I do that a lot too, making plans and then constantly changing them. For some reason I dislike other people trying to change my plans, but I'll change them as much as I like lol.

Ps are anti-schedule because schedules interrupt whatever we were doing or thinking about doing. If this is really obvious, I'm sorry.

Yes it is obvious and it is obvious because that is the most basic definition of P.


What I want to know is why.


Plus why Ps tend to like disarray.

Still, it is the answer. I sat here trying to think of a better one, but that's the answer.
