depth of feeling: yep. nuff said about the best bits; worst bits, the silliest things absolutely hammer me flat: i've had people really concerned like i was physically in pain or something - just have to tell them it's ok, just a silly thought.

relationships. always been a strange one this, for me. the word "relationship" implies "sharing the same goal". that's what a relationship is. if you share the same goal with someone, you _have_ a relationship. no same goal equals no relationship. and... my goals are pretty far-out, so i don't have that many relationships! so - i'm a bit pathological about relationships, but those that i have i really appreciate.

perception of the world: acute. so sharp i cut myself. absorb information and things like a sponge, but it's such a high degree of observation, it used to be overwhelming. now i kinda stay away from things, that keeps the signal-to-noise ratio down, and i can focus on things i'm here to do.

dedication to what i love: ... mmm... yeah, i'd say so. sort-of. for me, it's more like this: i see things that other people don't: i remember the disparate facts and can make the connections that other people wouldn't. i think, "that's not right. those people are going against the way i think things should be, because if things were like i think they ought to be, they'd be more efficient / have more opportunities to take advantage of if they wanted to / feel more empowered. there's lots of people being disadvantaged, here.". then i think, "is it in my power, with my knowledge of computer technology, do i have the time resources knowledge and money to do something about this, yes or no?" if answer equals yes, then act, otherwise no, drop it like a stone. simple, pathological and clear-cut. completing the loop is itself the reward; overcoming the technical challenges along the way are the things i love, and fulfilling the overall goal is definitely the cherry on top of the cake.

so - yeah. close. but i'd say i'm much more pathological than most. you're helping me to fulfil a goal, or you're not. you've got something to contribute to one of the goals (hello. tell me and we'll have fun with it), or you haven't (bye. have a nice life).

I am curious if INFPs are more likely to put their lives online. I am a "lifestreamer" and wonder if personality type affects propensity for doing so... what do you think?

"When you visualize, you materialize"

"Whatever you think about & thank about, you bring about"

"It not the universe that made the extra pound gone away, it's because decided to take action."

And THAT is where the so-called "law of attraction" breaks down.

Thank you for pointing out the contradiction in the so-called "law of attraction."

Jung Fitzpatrick The best financial advice I've ever gotten was to create different accounts for: 1) Monthly bills 2) Long-term savings 3) Short-term savings or priorities (vacations, bigger purchases, cc debt) 4) Play Then set up automatic deductions from my paycheck to go to the first 3 accounts + any investments w/ tax bennies (IRA, 401K), and the rest goes into my play account. Max out IRA each year. Only contribute to company 401K if they match, and only up til their match %. Pay down CC debt as much...
