'I agree with this entire philosophy. Becoming rich is easy but does require discipline which is hard for most people. Basically everyone should learn how to make money, save and live well beneath...
Companies are trying to make money; you should first ask, how are they making money? Insurance is to hedge risk for so there will always be a profit to the company you get it from except in very...
You can get a job at McDonalds or large chain today provided you at least appear enthusiastic and dress/groom/act appropriately for the job. Minimum wage jobs are usually transitional jobs that...
Everyone except for a very few (perhaps 2-3) in the IT industry I have worked with for the past 20+ years has been a thinker that has succeeded around me. This is not to say feelers can't succeed,...
Challenge Accepted
If you are passionate about art and good at IT you could consider being a UX developer. I studied this quite a bit since I love art and design, just be prepared that most people out there don't know...
Short periods of more intense hours could be due to major changes at work; I personally had about 6 months of this at the company I worked for for about 10 years, although most of the time I am more...
It may sound odd me asking; but what was your childhood like? Major anxiety issues as well as a number of other sets of beliefs often to stem from unprocessed childhood trauma that needs to be worked...
I was terrible at math because of how I was taught and what my personality and learning styles were. I have a need to understand how an equation is useful, build a personal connection with it, and...
What is your passion? If nothing, what are you curious about? What job do you want to do with your degree? Would this sort of career meet your financial needs?
I am here to help; please be honest as I am not encouraging self attack, but being an INTP I recommend looking inward first; Why aren't you proficient in it? What are you lacking to be...
Don't focus on the degree, focus on the career you want. Once you find out the career you want, you can do a job hunt and find out what degree best serves people of that career choice. Bad degrees...
I would consider the following signs of INTP immaturity Feeling that they lack a voice (their work/ideas being ignored) Feeling their ideas are naturally superior since they are well thought out...
All students by the time they reach junior high should know the following; if you don't know these, immediately do so and your stress will almost disappear: Learn Mnemonic techniques and use...
I didn't see a big deviation in high school; in college the difficulty for different degrees is astronomically more difficult which means work loads will vary significantly. I got a double BS in...
I struggled with this a bit too and almost dropped out, but instead just took a short break from college. Here is what I would recommend: Short Term Ideas for Income: If you are cute you can...
While I have a love and solid background in the subject, unless you are wealthy or a trust fund baby I would recommend against getting a degree in the subject for a number of reasons. What...
At my company we get into a hiring phase frequently when we are not in the annual or mid year review process. People completely unqualified apply regularly due to the higher salaries and benefits...
Yes it is a real thing and I identify with that strongly. Some people say you need to learn for the test, and to that I would agree only to the extent that you get a 'C' in the class. Standardized...
Is what we call ADHD just a misdiagnosed systemic failure of eduction? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDZFcDGpL4U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uU6o2_UFSEY
An interesting question, however worldviews are primary based on indoctrination, and therefore geographically distributed.
I talked to BigApplePi and I got a work around that worked for himl For other people that may be having issues, try the Hybrid Mode. It works great for me without any issues on: - Firefox...
The concept of privledged is a completely irrational notion. You are not privledged just because you have an higher income -- you could have earned it through hard work; You are not privedged or...
When I was paying attention or care about something I have an eidetic memory... partially because of a mnemonics course I took (and would recommend to anyone).
meltedsorbet Or what about: From my 1859 first edition =)

Should be in the philosophy forum =) From the time of the ancient Greeks authenticity has been a valued virtue among philosophers since being honest with yourself is crucial for determining your...
wow i was tired when i posted this; I thought it was, what is your favorite day of the year.. lol My least favorite is probably a toss up between valentines day and Easter; both are celebrated in...
I don't think it will let me post something that long so in summary: I am an Atheist, but dislikes most other Atheists Pro-Euthanasia Anti-Capital Punishment Suicide booths, sure! ...
BigApplePi I get where you are coming from. From what I understand, INTP's can more easily look at things from a perspective that eliminates their personal feelings... it doesn't mean it is...
Thanks. That makes more sense.
Wordplay and toilet humor; sorry to admit the latter yet I find that I make for a tough crowd. Actually humor has rules; If you want to ruin the magic watch this video and it will disillusion you...
Psychologists would lead you to believe this is an oddity, however it is not. I was very artistic until I got midway through college, where started as an art major actually and I am a classic INTP. I...
Yes I found myself victim of this confirmation bias as well as a younger-ling. So I would point out that a sign of a immature Ti / INTP would be to attack anything with logic instead of picking...
Agreed. I have had a lot of the same thoughts myself and decidedly joined this forum and a few social groups as an experiment of similar ideas. I like the forum aspect since it creates a record of my...
I just noticed that I never heard the term Ti; what is this BTW?
Halloween! It has all the best traits of a holiday from my perspective: Shenanigans dressing up and playing pretend, scaring people (in a fun way), and goofing off. The weather is the best...
Same. As both a blessing and a curse I am an information vampire of sorts. I almost never watch or do anything for entertainment as a deliberate decision since about 2000. This means I can talk...
All I am saying is that it entirely depends on the audience. I personally have disdain for speakers never bringing up nuanced points since they are usually worthless rhetoric's. Sadly many...
Yes and No. The question is a bit vague so I will explain the difficulty lies within vagueness of what you mean by open-mindedness: open-mindedness meaning: not to be torn by ideas about...
Incorrect. Consumerism is a result of Social Engineering and made worse by Government tampering/regulation, which means you are no longer dealing with Free Market Capitalism, but a bastardized...
First I agree people do things for money and personal gain. But I would like to see a strong valid argument that shows how that is a bad thing and a definition of what you mean by bad. Remember...
These are really two different taxonomies so they can't really be fairly compared except from purely social well being / economic perspectives so I shall constrain my comments to such. Socialism...
Yes, I bought copies of most of those within the last 5 years.
I clearly stated that most so called therapy is for the weak minded and my rational for it which was based on direct observation. I understand you disagree; I accept this and that is ok. I would have...
Again, you are saying that I said things that I did not; I do not appreciate when that is done to what I write or say. If you choose to use this form of rhetoric again I will no longer continue to...
You are putting words into my mouth. Therapy is not medicine. The reason it exists for the most part is a perceived value from those who use the service. For the most part I observe what people call...
Feelings, as in the experience is a real thing that can be measured. I agree, facts are not magic, magic is make believe. I agree that a person's life is not a fact, it is a collection of...
LostFavor Reading what you wrote reminded me of one of my other pet peeves of psychology: There is an inerrant flaw with Therapy that is identical to Alcoholics Anonymous: The underlying premise...'
