Question for sensors?
-

I don't always live in the present. I think of my future too: SJs are planners, aren't they?

Yes, so SJs see into the future a little better because of their introverted perceiving function. Like NJs do better than NPs. But again they tend to struggle with coming up with visions and becoming longer-sighted is something that many sensors struggle with.
How do you cope?

I'm sorry that you pigeonhole me. That's all I can say.
Wait, why do you think Ss are shorter-sighted than Ns? Just because they don't always come up with ideas? There is difference between unfeasible visions and planning of practical things. Ingenuity doesn't always mean feasibility.

I have an ISTJ roommate who has some kind of aversion to imagination. All he ever talks about is how simple he can make his day. I would say he plans everything out, but everything he plans is, I guess, too practical. He always brags about how simple his day is. His favorite day consists of "taking a nap, eating a sandwich, and watching TV." I wouldn't say he can't plan, he just has so few ambitions so he ends up doing very little planning. When it comes down to actually doing something, like going out to dinner or something for everyone, he is very good at getting everyone together for it. I would say I'm better at planning for more distant things, while he is better at short term goals.
