    Default rethinking my type

    I haven't posted a type thread about myself before, so humour me if nothing else. (c:

    My present musings on the topic are hereto contained.

    So, what do you think?

    Yeah, your type doesn't necessarily determine any ability in anything.

    In fact, I do make good sandwiches ... (0: Do you seriously eat pear and brie sandwiches?

    You don't relate at all to being hyperaware physically when you're nervous?
    I am very physically "there", moving, twitching, that is what my mom said when she saw me at my National Honor Society thing.

    But I never once thought of how I would trip, I made sure I wouldn't beforehand, but I wasn't too worried about it.

    But yes I do move a lot when I am nervous.

    Quadra values help with these decisions. When I checked out the plus and minus values of each quadra, it gave me a much better understanding about my general preferences. http://www.the16types.info/groups.php?groupsid=1

    When I read about Fi minus I realized I dislike it very much, but Fi plus was much more favorable. Se plus sounded good to me but Se minus seemed awful. So these things can help you reach a conclusion about your specific quadra.

    Temperament also helps. Are you impulsively active like Ep or more calculated and reasonable/cautious like IJ? and so on.
