Laments from an ENTP/INTP

*Note: If you don't know anything about Myers-Briggs, this may be a tough post for you.

I'm frustrated with the fact that I'm a blend of ENTP and INTP. If you want to know more about me than most, read this summary of ENTPs or this summary of INTPs.

I just feel like follow-through is really hard. For every hundred ideas I have, I maybe follow-through on three. It just seems like the times I actually do decide to do something, I am fighting uphill while thinking and analyzing are downhill ventures that I will default to and gravitate towards if left unchecked.

I sometimes get locked up in my head, completely oblivious to the present moment and all that is actually going on around me. This is when I get into "I" mode. Honestly, how I am doing depends very little on what's going on in my world externally. It's very hard for me to get out of my head and just be where I'm at.

This is why some of my best, happiest moments are socially related or in a new or beautiful place. These situations jar me out of my head and into the moment.

This is why I'm so impressed by J's I think. I see their follow-through and I admire and want that ability to line things up and get stuff done!

I've heard people tell me that they wish they had the penetrating analytical mind or depth of thought that I have. They don't realize that they have blessings too- and I have my own curses...
