I used to be very, very
INTJ. I very much doubt anyone here is surprised by that.
In the past, all four of those letters were strongly expressed. Recently, however, I've leveled out a bit. Since becoming an adult I've realized how important it is to step outside my comfort zone and also embrace the E, F, and P sides. A few examples:
I was an extreme introvert, but living on my own has changed my perspective there significantly. I'm more of a mild introvert now. I used to base all my decisions on facts, but I've learned the hard way why it's important to take people's emotions into consideration (including my own). When I lived with my parents and went to high school I liked to keep my life very organized, but since I've been living on my own I've found that I'm okay with things being more spontaneous.
A funny thing, though, is that my moderately expressed N is the only thing that
hasn't changed over time. Whereas I've gravitated towards the middle in the other three spectrums, that N hasn't gone anywhere.
Took the test again, just for ships and giggles. Well, what do you know. I'm an
INTP now.
reading the INTJ and INTP profiles, I've always seen myself in both. This is the first time my results have come up with anything other than INTJ, though, so it's pretty interesting.
