'I agree with the above. Don't go into something that'll make you miserable; there's no point. Work doesn't necessarily have to be a minus. Work can serve as a springboard for personal growth.
I'd recommend looking into a field that you enjoy (linguistics, perhaps?) and going into consulting. Consulting is really great for xNTPs, I think, as it requires on the fly problem solving in...
Well, that's what I was going for, so that's cool. That actually isn't the whole thing; I couldn't get a good pic of the full page. Here are a couple of other pictures showing the rest: 557490...
Yeah? I always have trouble judging anything that I make, so I'm happy to have a positive comment. It's like, when I make something, I always miss the forest for the trees; I can see everything...
I got stressed, so I drew Trump in a sombrero. I'm less stressed now. 557362 My scanner isn't working at the moment, and I haven't drawn anything for quite some time, so don't judge me too...
I get this, particularly when I post front facing pictures. At the moment, I can grow a fully connected chin strap, so that's what I do. It looks fine if I'm not facing you dead on. Is it great?...
Got a haircut after having my hair long for years. I'm still trying to figure out how to wear it; I've got it too spiked in this one. 546402
Drunk Parrot So, you're an ENTP, and I'm an ENTP. You're a type 7, but am I a type 7? Or am I a type 3? I'm conflicted. I've gotten 3s and 7s on various tests, but I suspect that being an ENTP...
I just want to say that both of the posts before this one were, apparently, done at exactly the same time on different days. The first picture, and the post counts, make me suspect a very subtle...
I spend a lot of my time lately hanging out with this neglected kid in my neighborhood. He's so smart, and it's so unfortunate, because I know that intelligence won't help him out of what he's in....
This.
I don't know about y'all, but I get a huge rush when knocking a bully down a few pegs. Like, it gives me a reason to maximize the wit, the snark and the intellect, all for the greater good. It's fun....
Rock on! Not yet though... I need to get my speaking a little bit straight first. I'm currently using a combination of Duolingo and Memrise to learn vocab, and soon I'll start consuming more media:...
I think I need to finish reading all of Robert Greene's work before I can do that. Maybe your guide can help me do that!.. and learn Spanish... and continue developing my moral system... and apply to...
Oh, I'm completely joking. The scenario itself wouldn't apply, because I'd totally convince everyone to follow my plan anyway, but the overall concept completely applies; working with people that you...
Woah, solid post! I especially like the advise in chapters 1 and 2. Chapter 3 isn't that applicable, because I happen to be extremely charming. :wink:
I love stuff like Yiruma and Einaudi, but I've been yelled at for calling that classical music in the past. :unsure: It's apparently New Age according to many of the snobbiest fans of classical...
That depends on how you define win. People aren't very rational, I've found, and tend to think that they're right even after their arguments lay in shambles. I myself define winning as convincing...
Oh, sure, I just decided to make a quick post from a pantheistic perspective; I'm well aware of its flaws in a literal sense, though it's still excellent metaphorical material that appeals to the...
Yeah, that piece has a good pulse, but it's one I'm familiar with. Mars, the Bringer of War is in my When I Take Over The World folder on my PC. I've been in a cheerier mood lately though, and...
There is no God, but God is everything.
Derange At 170 Yep, I went ahead and skipped to the 5 minute mark in the initial Terry Riley piece you posted, and it does pick up. That's some awesome stuff. Part of the reason I didn't get into...
I found this concerning, considering my tendency to jump from topic to topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTL9tm7S1Io
See, I like minimalism like this, but I generally prefer things with more of a pulse. Perhaps I just need to dig deeper into some minimalist artists and stop being lazy? There's just a lot to go...
Does anyone here enjoy classical music? I've tried time and time again to find pieces that I enjoy, and the closest I've come to that is some Baroque stuff, specifically Scarlatti, but I don't really...

I'm convinced that meditation, specifically focused attention meditation, is essential for ENTPs and ENFPs specifically, and perhaps even ESxPs and IxxPs as well. Being able to fully focus on...
I would argue that the mind is the hand guiding the stream. Sometimes, the stream is too much for the hand to bear, other times, it's easy to guide. Sometimes the hand has tools, other times the hand...
Exactly. That's actually why I've been looking for music lately. Baroness is giving me a kind of contented feeling, while simultaneously fueling my ambition; it's like I feel at peace, but know that...
Yeah, music triggers sentiment in me in a strange way. I can usually tell what music will end up doing this to me, depending on where I'm at. Like, right now, I've been listening to a lot of Baroness...
Wait... Why was your rice pink?
Let me google that for you
Can someone tell me what's going on here?
Are you sure they're that dull? I mean, doesn't it go both ways? Your interests just happen not to align with theirs; if your goal is to expand the conversation, just aim to do their more interesting...
I was listening to The Real McKenzies and YouTube decided to recommend me this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE_tYrTA6QA It's apparently an Irish post-rock band. I don't know why I'm liking...
I don't know, but I'd guess that you're an ENFP or an INFP. If you'd like me to extrapolate, I will, but tell me, does the shoe fit?
I love how the What pisses off INTPs? thread is just another multi-topic debate thread. Does this mean that debating pisses off INTPs?
Looking for new music, and I came across this. I'm liking it so far. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tZ_uwDlmPY
I'm an ENTP, but whatever. Close enough am I right? I'm white, a U.S. resident, but I grew up in a predominantly black setting. All of my friends were black, I wrote raps with my friends, I...
Some kind of NF. I'll take a stab and say INFP, but I doubt that's right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDq359wuszY
Huh, I don't really relate with being unable to find good educational material, so perhaps my recs will fall flat. In any case, here is what I've got: Social Psych/Manipulation/Sales The Social...
XSXJs in positions of authority can be absolutely hellish. Rigid rules, detailed requirements, tight schedules, they tend to leave no room for creativity.
Well, it'll depend on the stranger of course. If I find someone interesting, I try to create parlay by revealing personal details and attempting to feed their interests. The end game when doing this...
Is he breathing?
34/36 One that I missed was a real puzzler, but I feel like I would've gotten the other if I would've thought about it a bit more; both were young women. I used a mix of process of elimination,...
I was the stoner that showed up when half of the day was already over yet somehow managed to be one of the smartest people in the AP classes that I took. I also hung out with the 'hood kids and did...
I love these: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWvBxIEgL44
So, I was walking out of the college, fresh off of a charge from conversing with people and doing an excellent presentation (extroversion, woot woot), and I decided to say hey to this random old...
