It seems of late, my NF license has been revoked (or suspended) by certain members with high authority in such matters.
It seems to me that Ti, Fi, Ni, and Si all seem to be very popular with me. It always bugged me that Fi and Ti are at opposite ends, so the last thing an INTP would use is Fi and vice versus. Yet, it seems to me Fi and Ti are flipping around in my mind in tandem fluctuations.
Also, when I first took the test, I took it blind (RESULTS IN SIGNATURE). I didn't know what the MBTI was beyond being fun, though all the questions were arguable.
Now my testing is compromised by knowing what all the questions designate.
I try to find tests with exotic questions, but it doesn't work because I still know what they mean. I look for descriptions of people's childhoods in books or forums, seeking more resonance of who I am. Sometimes I find reflection me, and other times I find antithesis.
I believe IN and P are fairly clear. Probably the majority of what I think about is proprietary, but it generally has to do with the potentiality of fish. Will this be sold now, or culled? If not now, the to whom and when? Thus, I see a tiny, wee fish, and I speculate about whole potential and future of that fish.
Mostly what I do all day is (for job) is sort fish. Pretty ones with lots of potential go to one place, uglier ones go to a different place. So I look at fish that is 2 inches, and think, "Wow! This will become one of our best breeding fish four years from now, and it will will go great to breed with Male 1, 43 and 25." Or I think, "That's the fish John was looking for! He had a fish that looked like that and it died. This will be perfect for him." I sort about 500,000 fish per year, sometimes we sort the same fish multiple times before they are sold.
If I'm not thinking about things like that, then I'm doing something like planning what to say in a post here, or wonder exactly what "they" are really thinking and feeling about me...if at all. Or I'm wondering who is thinking about me and why, and how can I write them about something.
Basically, outside of the potentiality of fish, I'm generally think about past and future written communications...primarily written, but sometimes spoken conversations. I think about repair relationship, if I can. Or I think about what it means, specifically and in general.
And when I'm not thinking about that, I'm thinking about things like...how streams, dripping water, currents and eddies represent the flow of time. Or how butterflies represent rebirth into something more beautiful. Black fish represent luck, and red fish are the fire element in the midst of the waters. Or how emptiness is an essential component of systems and the mind. Nothing is ever simply "the thing".
