    Default IEEs/ENFps achieving their dreams and goals

    Right. What are the pros and cons to an IEE achieving dreams.

    What are the factors they look for in achieving things?

    Pro: they are happier
    Con: they have less time to achieve other dreams

    Not enough time? What does that mean?

    Just that, since we all are going to die eventually (probably), you have to pick the dreams you want to pursue, and choose some to abandon. Even if that kills you.

    So IEEs are interested in multiple dreams and a healthier approach is to concentrate on one?

    Well if you are IEE, why don't you give us your take on things, too?
    Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
    If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

    I think I'm an IEE, and I am a prototype of someone trying "everything". I've written published music, I have sold paintings, I've developed house-hold products that "everyone" uses, I've published scientific work, I've worked as an engineer, in marketing and as a financial consultant all in big companies, I've worked as a model and a photographer and now I'm planning to write books. I'm very competitive, so I always do well in anything, but I can never stay doing the same thing for more than max 2-3 years. Also there is never enough time to do even half of what I dream of doing, and a lot of my dreams are even conflicting, like being a home mom and being the manager of a business.... It's a little black-white sometimes - I don't like mediocre, it's all or nothing... :-)

    BUT - those day-to-day dreams like excelling in my career, writing a book, making music, etc. are not really important in the long run. Those dreams are a little like games I play for the sake of learning "everything" and for competition on my way to reach my REAL goal. The day-to-day dreams can be abandoned whenever a new dream comes along and will be abandoned whenever I don't learn fast anymore. The real ambition however is too important to ever be abandoned: That real goal is to learn more, understand more and to use that understanding in helping others find their true path in life. I guess that others might find me without direction, but I'm actually very consistent in reaching my life goal. It's just a little more abstract than what others might think.

    PS. It makes me happy to reach smaller goals in life, and I hate choosing between dreams. Elro is right!
    here we go again.
