Like you just prefer to do things spontaneously and thinking that you have a schedule in a specific day drags you down like you feel it's too much? Sort of feelings?
Is that a perceiver problem?
Bad you just end up doing it anyways.. But you prefer to do things spontaneously?
As a perceiver, it's actually the reverse. I
need constraints like a schedule with deadlines and time pressures to motivate me, otherwise I never get anything done. If you just hand me an assignment and say "get it done" my first question is, "by when?" And then I postpone doing it until nearly the last moment. I can't imagine how lazy I would be if I actually had
no responsibilities. I'd probably just slip into a coma.
Contrast this with something [MENTION=18736]reckful[/MENTION] said in
this post, section 2.
Speaking for myself, I'd describe a perfect day as a weekend day where I wake up with no responsibilities on my plate. No work, no errands: nothing. Because even if there are only a couple tasks on the day's to-do list and they're only likely to take an hour or so to get done, I'm still likely to experience those tasks as a little cloud hanging over my day until I freaking get them done. Then I can relax and enjoy whatever other stuff I decide to do to a greater degree than I would if the day's chores were still unfinished. (The classic "work first, play later" mentality.)
Reckful is someone I would consider the epitome of a J-type, and an INTJ. In fact for years over at Personality Cafe him and I used to have at it, and for years I was self-mistyped as an INTJ. But the more I contrasted my preferences and style with his, the more dissonance I noticed, until my mistake became apparent to me. I learned a lot from that mistake, and going forward from there, things really started to click. What had taken me a lot of money and time invested into books like the MBTI Manual Third Edition and the Step II Manual (which I wrote up verbatim in a series of posts over at PerC) finally paid off.
And by the way, the above citation and comparison to my own style is also for anyone like myself who received a score somewhere in the middle of the J/P axis on a certified inventory. Talking it over with a professional examiner helped me realize this and go with INTP in the end, because my
natural attitude is very easy-going, so easy-going in fact that as I said I actually
need pressure to constrain my judgment, otherwise I would never commit to anything.
