I still can't find my own type..now I realize being self-aware is key, but I can't interpret cognitive functions the way other people seem to be able to.
1) What aspect of your personality made you unsure of your type? Every aspect basically. I try to think logically first, but my emotional reactions usually come first naturally, I have emotional outbursts and once I sit to think my logic kicks in. I read functions and I can't decide which ones I relate to more, or which one I act like more.
2) What do you yearn for in life? Why? I yearn to be successful, the kind of person people aspire to be like. Because I being successful makes me feel like I have a purpose.
3) Think about a time where you felt like you were at your finest. Tell us what made you feel that way. I feel at my finest when I am completely honest about the way I feel and think with people. Like, I can talk about exactly how I feel or think without being afraid of the consequences, I say everything that's on my mind and I don't have any secrets. Or i'm not holding back my feelings, I just let them spill out freely. Problem is it usually bears negative consequences.
4) What makes you feel inferior? I feel inferior to people easily because i'm always envious of other personality traits, only slightly, not to a destructive extent , but just people being better then me at something makes me feel inferior.
5) What tends to weigh on your decisions? (Do you think about people, pro-cons, how you feel about it, etc.) The future consequences of the decision I have to make. I generally weigh out pros and cons of each option. I'm not good at making decisions, I either come to a decision right away or I can't make one at all.
8) When you want to learn something new, what feels more natural for you? When I want to learn something new...I let it come to me naturally and usually I don't keep interest for a long time, I get really excited about it and then once I start to learn it I get bored and move on with something else. If it's educational, I usually just research it , although i'm very cynical about resources so I like to test drive education concepts on my own before trusting the internet.
9) How organized do you think of yourself as? I'm not organized, I like planning out meetings and I like to know what thins are going to happen before they do (it makes me feel calm and in control) but other than that I'm very messy, I don't keep any papers organized in school, it's been one of my biggest downfalls.
10) How do you judge new ideas? You try to understand the principles behind it to see if they make sense or do you look for information that supports it? Usually I just look for evidence to support an idea, and then evaluate it to see if it makes any sense to me.
11) You find harmony by making sure everyone is doing fine and belonging to a given group or by making sure that you follow what you believe and being yourself?I don't think people belong in certain groups, and I don't like to put myself in a box. Of course I'm going to be myself, if I don't be who I am i'm lying to other people and creating misconceptions. I would hope everyone is doing fine, but if they don't want my help then it's not my problem. Sometimes when I really admire someone I may slightly compromise about what I believe in, but usually i'm pretty straightforward about my beliefs as I don't care if it bothers other people.
12) Are you the kind that thinks before speaking or do you speak before thinking? Do you prefer one-on-one communication or group discussions? I prefer one on one, crowds intimidate me, I think a lot about what I am going to say before I say it.
13) Do you jump into action right away or do you like to know where are you jumping before leaping? Does action speaks more than words? I think life is too short to look before leaping, I like to go into action right away because usually waiting just makes me more anxious. Words can mean a lot of they are spoken truly, but actions show that a person can follow through with what they say which is what's most important..
16) What makes you dislike the personalities of some people? People who can't think independently, people who aren't honest, people who aren't themselves, people who try too hard to get attention..
