Came across this after reading something on wolverine which is kinda comical. It was mentioning how someone who doesn't know their past will try to infer who they really are by using external observation skills and piece together this based on finding meaning instead of looking at who they are. Being that wolverine is ISTP I don't really see him doing that. More of a this is who I am irregardless and flashbacks would define who I was. I would not try to patch any holes with assumptions of any kind based on external observations.
Anyway, this got me to thinking because I argue(not heated, disagree) quite a bit because she does his to understand herself and it's really hit or miss on the accuracy. It completely removes the actual reason. It would be like saying my son like boy scouts because of what boy scouts is known for. No, he likes the social aspect of it. The "what it's known for" is a side affect that helps for the good. Stuff like that which really confuses things. I know someone who goes out and parties until they are in a relationship and then they are stable. The party isn't because it's who they are, it's to fill in a hole that's missing. How can you tell, because they don't search for the party, it's a symptom. They search for the relationship.
Ideas and thoughts about whether or not you do this with your own view of yourself?
