Myers-Briggs is trash. It fails to account for the fact that the characteristics it purports to describe are liable to change over the course of a person's life and to reflect environmental factors. I've never taken the test formally but I've taken the same online tests several times over the past 15 years and have gotten a different result each time, the only thing that's stayed constant is introversion.

Well im a ENTP and I feel like my writing isn't that bad, plus my editor thinks I'm really good aswell and noone has ever really complained(exept my dad). I feel like every personality has the potential to write a good book, good being subjective to the person reading it. Another factor i feel plays a big role is environment and mental state, because I usually write best when I am super depressed about.. Stuff. Another variable is the genre in which the person is writing. I cannot imagine my father writing poems and short stories like me, him being a ESTJ and all, but a book about entrepreneurship or a biography more so.

this. re: infj. i think the fact that it's an elusive type to pin down also causes confusion about other types. there's a minority in the muers briggs community that tends to gush about the intp type. ive known intps, and onserve them in the media. they're objectively the worst type. they're nobodies. but infj can be confused for them due to sharing some superficial qualities while having a more overall holistic and easy going outlook. intps are deep thinksrs. which sounds like a compliment but really just means they endlessly whittle away at the same few banal concepts. wheras infjs are wide thinkers. anyway, they also get mistyped as infp sometimes as is the case with joyce. so their greatness isnt widely known.

I can only assume that you're intellectually intimated by our dominant Introverted Thinking. The insecurity will pass, friend.

Introverted Thinking is a curse, especially in the dominant position. It's why you guys are nobodies. It makes you concerned with preserving internal consistency, even though your internal lives aren't worth sorting. A cruel irony really.

The entirety of the INTP resonse to the (admittedly unfair) attacks have been "heh, I know you are but what am I? Actually, I'm a genius." Every type is neutral and it's up to the specifics whether someone is good or bad. But it does just so happen that soecifically most INTPs are unequivocal failures. A couple will succeed of course, whithin a modest framework

At least you have a reason, or an excuse.

I'm just genuinely that useless.

I would like to blame it on my poor mental health, but because depression, anxiety and attention issues are so easy to confuse with being lazy and unmotivated, I still blame myself. Even anyone reading this post can tell how pathetic I am.

maybe you're just an INTP

[Anonymous No.10593326]

if INTP was a religion/philosophy it would be Taoism

No it'd be Mormonism. Most retarded type, most retarded religion.

Don't give them sympathy. INTJ's beat up on themselves but it doesn't mean much.

The second part of a statement is a view INFJs have sometimes, the first part of the statement is pure INFJ. Result: infj
