I'm only 77.4% P, so I'm not sure.Given that the business and academic world is strongly J oriented, how do you as P survive in it? Some answers from >80% P would be good.

Well you only need to know the ball park figure, my using tenths just makes sure everyone instantly knows everything about me from viewing the percentages. I don't even have to meet them (Thank Christ!).I was too lazy to figure out my exact percentage.

My desk is usually disorganised butI'm dyslexic so I need to have things out the way well before time in order to do corrections and editing.
Observations unrelated with topic but sparked by post:
Almost all ENTPs I know think they could be or have been diagnosed with having either or both dyslexia and attention deficit.
Rant having nothing to do with thread or post:
I keep thinking they should not be considered personality disorders, but are simply normal aspects of some types of personalities.
I am revolted by the use of drugs for hyperactivity for example. I think this practice should be considered an assault on a person's individuality. Try to make them conform to normalizing behavior - such as academic performance - can sabotage the potential of a perfectly healthy individual.
I was always one of the brightest kids in the room but really bad at English, fortunately the Education system in Scotland had developed beyond English distroying all else. I was good at Maths except for bit of it where you had to decode the english to formulate the problem.
That said I'm powerfully unstructured which allows me to be hyper creative whiles still remaining acceptable in the work place.

As for meds, it may be an assault but I also think it's survival. Which would you suggest: have a zebra look like a zebra and get EATEN BY THE CHEETAH or have the zebra paint himself black and wear a cat mask? Huh? He's not a cat, but he's not going to end up as carrion either.
So, now, I only have to deal with moderate ptsd rather than life-damaging ptsd. 2. as a personality I'm simply to 'sensitive' to environmental factors to be able to exist without some kind of filter between me and the world. And I get overwhelmed and then I get depressed and then I depersonalize. Meds act as that filter.
I guess, in a perfect world it would be lovely for people to accept me just as I am, but that's simply not going to happen often enough for me to make a life out of it, so for survivals sake I (and probably most other add/adhd/dyslexic people) need something to make us blend in. Some spray paint and a mask so to speak.
