INFP

Good times. :)
INFP in the box.
As you probably notice I'm totally unprepared for these vids
and just talk on the subject and whatever enters my mind.
I like to be a bit spontaneous, feels easier that way.

ESTP

The ESTP is a wrap.
Got a bit over to the topic of intertype conflicts in this one.

ISTP

Next vid is a wrap.
I realized in this one that I've not given any good example of a person
that could exemplify the types.
So from now on I will try to mention a good example of  the type.
For the ISTP type I have a great example.

ISTP real person example Snoop Dogg

I will go back and add in text good examples for the other types.

Dominant: Introverted thinking
Auxiliary: Extroverted sensing
Tertiary: Introverted intuition
Inferior: Extroverted feeling

ENFJ

Yes finished the ENFJ.
Now I'm so tired I just want to go to sleep.
Had to contain a few yawns there, anyone perceptive should catch them.
So enjoy! I liked my whole sword polishing thing.

INFJ

Next one is a wrap. INFJ this time.
Gets lots of insights continually hammering on these principles.
I wonder where I will be when I'm finished with these issues.

ESFJ

Okay some rambling on the ESFJ.
I find it funny how this has sort of become a race for me to complete the set.
Just talk about this topic until everything is finished and then move on.
I actually don't care so much about my audience.
Like if they are here I can't really imagine that they come for my sweetness and style.
I talk about this topic and if it interests them they are welcome to listen.

ESFJ real person example Chris Wallace Fox News.

Inferior: Introverted thinking

ISFJ

Next video is about the ISFJ.
Notice the nice striking background, making sure any ISFJ watching would cringe.
Still I imaging my audience to be of a different crowd anyway so I don't care about
making the vid pleasing to the eye.
It is about the information dammit. xD

ISFJ real person example Dr. Dre.

ENTP

Here is the next video in the series.
This is about the ENTP, very similar to the last one, but more different than you might imagine.

ENTP real person example John Stewart.

Dominant: Extroverted intuition
Auxilary: Introverted thinking
Tertiary: Extroverted feeling
Inferior: Introverted sensation

INTP

Since I'm quite happy about the way my last vids panned out,
I'm going to start a new series talking about the different types.

I will use the Myers Briggs labels as they are so videly known and accepted.

I will explore this form a perspective of having two sets of polarities to balance.

The first type is INTP enjoy! :)

INTP real person example Richard Dawkins.

For reference:
Dominant: Introverted thinking
Auxilary: Extroverted intuition
Tertiery: Introverted sensation
Inferior: Extroverted feeling

Stereotypes

I've been thinking about doing a video for each Myers Briggs type.
But first I need to get this topic off my chest.
The rampant use of stereotypes, and how it is just a manifestation of type dynamics.

Whatever you do someone will have something negative to say about it.
You will not measure up to their perspective of reality.
The reason is that their view of you will paint you in a stereotypical light.
And they will hone in on and exagerrate or even twist aspects of you they don't like.

So the solution is to be aware of them from the start and catch yourself doing it.
I do it too. I had to do this twice cause I was being too onesided in the first vid.

So here it is the savation of mankind... or something. xD

Introverted thinking

So there done! =D
All 8 are in place.

This last one is about the subjective version of thinking.

Here you go.

Extroverted thinking

Now this is going real well.
I think I will get done tonight with all of these.

So here is the extroverted thinking installment.

Here is the evidence I did it. :p

Introverted feeling

Another one in the box. :)
Introverted feeling this time. How to view the world trough subjective values.
This is my main perspective so I have quite strong views on it.

Here you go!

Extroverted feeling

Ok got the extroverted feeling piece in place.

Feeling or rather values on an objective level.
How does that work?

Well here I'll tell you. ;)

Introverted intuition

My next vid is ready! Quite a productive day. :)
Now this is about introverted intuition.
This is the subjective version of the whole tracking scheme.

Here it is!

Extroverted intuition

Now I'm moving over to the intuitive realm.
How we track and make sense of the patterns around us.

The first video is about the extroverted version of the intuitive perspectives.
It is objective so it treats it as patterns.

On to the vid.

Introverted sensation

Ok my next video is ready.
This one is about introverted sensation.

It has the opposite stance in the sensation realm, namely a retreating impulse.
Making it subjective and highly selective.

Anyway lets go on to the video. :)

Extroverted sensing

I've decided to continue down the path of directions of orientation and focus in
on each one of them with it's own video.

The first one will be about extroverted sensing or Se.
It is both on a sensation level and an objective level.

Polarities

So today I've made my first blog video.
Kinda excited about it, and yeah I know it doesn't show in the vid.
Damn dominant Introverted feeling hiding it all. xD

Todays topic is the polarities of attention.
I talk about how the functions isn't really there, but just abstract ideas of logic.
The reality of the functions are more like where you choose to direct your attention.

I use MBTI terminology when refering to types and refer to cognitive function names
when I talk about direcion of attention.

Here are the polarities listed out.

Se  <--> Ni (Extroverted sensing vs intoverted intuition)
Ne <--> Si (Extroverted intuition vs intoverted sensing)
Fe <--> Ti  (Extroverted feeling vs introverted thinking)
Te <--> Fi  (Extroverted thinking vs introverted feeling)

Now for some people this will be very advanced and for others too simple.
If it is too advanced I recommend you go on youtube and look for something more basic,
there are tons of vids that cover this topic.
If it is too simple, well you are probably used to it anyway. :p

So without further ramblings here is the vid.

New vs old content

The drive to discover new content vs deepening already excisting content.

So lets say that I have some topic like psychology.
And say one day you stumble across some content that falls in under it.
Now it is great content and you feel it really helped you.
Now some more content comes along, and even more.
In fact the stream is endless. And it all seems so great.
But let me tell you something.
On much of what we encounter of content we are really wasting our time.

Why is that you say? Becaue if you don't isolate some content and explore it in depth
all you are doing is jumping shallowly from subject to subject.
Now some people manage to take something from it, and all power to them.
But for most it becomes a mindless assimilation of pieces.
Pieces they don't really understand good enough to do anything meaningful with.

So the next time some piece of content comes along.
Really ask yourself if this is really the best use of your time.
Or is it some other piece of already visited content that you would benefit revisiting instead.
To master something you got to revisit over and over and over.
To peal away deeper layers of understandng in that one area taking a dive into the sea.
Instead of jumping into the childrens pool of the new content.
Sometimes new content is your friend sometimes a time-thief.
Can you tell the difference?

Stop feeding anger energy

Whatever you feed energy grows.
Sometimes when annoying things happen you start to think about it a lot.
And the more you think about it the more annoying it becomes and the more energy it takes.

So what you got to do is right at the beginning as soon as possible,
catch yourself feeding that annoyance energy.
Just notice and say, gee I got other things to do.
I'll just ignore you. Sometimes you need to take some actions.
Sometime you got to think about it a bit to make sure you are on top of things.
But generally most annoyances do not need rethinking for the one hundred time.
Think about it once, if you need twice or thrice it better be a hard logic question.

If all you are doing is saying.

X did this and I did this.
God I hates X's guts for being so Y.

Well then it is time to ignore it.
You know your conclution, stick with it and pay attention to other issues,
that actually deserve your attention.

Two valuable ideas

Yeah so I stopped for a while.
Had to find firm footing before I continued.

Two very valuable ideas have entered my mind, each alone was not enough.
But together they really work wonders.

The first is a rather odd statment. It is called a double negative.

"There is no reason, to not be happy."

So what happened there? Well you kinda throw your brain for a little loop.
Positive affirmations don't work.

"Just be happy!"

Now somehow it just doesn't cut it, it becomes too simple for us.
Simple is boring, childish and all sort of other things so we just ignore it conciously.
If we say however say

"Do not be sad!"

Now we are talking, a negative, a bit more complex.
We have to interpret it. And our councious are with it.
But the unconcious don't understand negatives, so all it hears is

"Do be sad!"

But when we say a double negative someting magical happens.
It is doubly as interesting for the concious, a real riddle.
And when the unconcious are done editing out the negatives the message is clear.

"Be happy!"

The second thing that was valuable for me was something completely different.
Imagine that you have all these pissed off reasons to do stuff.
You are real angry and that is what drives you.
Suddenly the anger is dissipated. What do you do?
Well you lounge around all day, play games eat candy and smile.
So having an insta happy mechanism, if you could call it that,
you need something to counter balance it.

I found it in this site, the Done manifesto.
http://www.brepettis.com/blog/2009/3/3/the-cult-of-done-manifesto.html
A very result oriented mindset that just assumes that everything is sentered around doing stuff.
Works very well when you have deleted or at least severely weakened all motivation
based on anger.

So yeah that is where I'm at right now.
I have gotten up to speed on several other areas in my life and see no reason why this
blog won't see lots of activity because of this mindset.
Even if it is only the ghost of done. :p
