Um I think this is full of shit. I don't have much
in me either but when I want something done I just do it too. The problem is the things
people get done are just the obvious things.
Not getting things done comes from laziness or simply not caring. How is this a function thing? If your 'heart' (whatever you want to call your willpower) isn't in something you won't do it. And your willpower or force of confidence is related to your functions.
I just spent about 5 weeks creating an RPG game for me and my friends to play. To people who don't know how to look beneath the surface it would appear that I am lazy and just wasting my time on things that supposedly don't matter, but I felt like I put my heart and soul into my work and World of Warcraft can kiss my ass.
types are only good at things that
types are good at. To act like they get more things done on a larger scale is just stupidity. They make horrible scientists for one, because they're too hands-on. With many activities you have to be an observer. If you get 'too involved' you'll just fuck EVERYTHING (and I mean everything) up. Also remember, that being dynamic and doing a lot of things also means you create more things to do along the way. So what do you really get accomplished? Probably not much. Because it's just about how
manifests itself.
My ESTp neighbor is very successful with her career. But seriously that is ALL she does well, but it is easy to see her as successful since a job is such a big part of a person's life. But her personal relationships are in the shitter. She might be losing her only teenage son. Her house is a complete wreck and she doesn't have the inner patience to learn anything that takes more than a few hours to learn. And it's not just because she's an ESTp either, it's because I think she's the only Beta on the block. I think it drives her crazy that she's with nothing but Alpha and Deltas.
