You truly feel guilty over that? Why?
i feel like i just have this mindset of "i have to program myself into a better person" either it be intention-wise/behaviour (how i act to others) or within (like for example forcing myself to process things in a different manner until it's natural) and this kind of makes me analyze why, how and when i have become a Feeler and makes me question why most don't find it to be a good trait or find it to be unnecessary, which makes me think "what's the point of being an F?". that then gives me a list of reasons to why i shouldnt be that and a list of scenarios in which i would had been a thinker instead and how that would have benefited me significantly more than being emotionally driven ever possibly could, so basically i think this trait of mine is a waste of time, but what has probably subconsciously affected me so much is the fact that this is absolutely engraved in my mind at this point, it'd be the hardest mental exercise to become the polar opposite of my train of thought
dude does this make sense
Being emotionally driven is a good thing imo. You may feel things a bit harder than thinkers and not everything you do makes perfect sense to others, but that's fine. at least you can feel like what you do is the right thing for you. Where's the fun in fitting into a box society shaped for you and told you was convenient for them? Where are you gonna find your place when others lay down your framwork and tell you to sit inside it? That this is where you should fit it, it would be nice and comfortable and you would just be one of the masses. I am not here to be more convenient than necessary because a world that only think don't feel and only thinking doesn't favor relations beyond the basic need it has to human wellbeing. thinkers makes me feel like everything has to make sense to be validated. Emotions are wilder. However, you need an amount of both, too much of any would be bothersome. And feelings are good. They are indicators of how you are doing.
I personally don't think you pick how you perceive the world. You're born that way and it's a part of who you are in good and bad. And I don't think you are one or the other. Meyers Briggs bases your personality on the traits you score the most in and that does not mean that being and F excludes all your T abilites. You have both, Mada.
Being a thinker does not equal being a "better person." Being a feeler does not equal being a "better person." Other people judge you by your actions. They will never see how you feel or think, but what you feel and think will reflect your actions. You don't need to be anyone else than who you are. Don't diminish yourself. You're not small. Don't let other people ruin who you are because they are uncomfortable. You can't people please people all your life anyway. Been there, done that. Start stepping up for yourself and discard mindsets that no longer serves you.
Wow honestly mada Divergent. Read the book. Watch the movie etc. It will explain to you exactly what I mean.
goddamn that was honestly such great input that i don't have anything to say other than you are indeed right, i honestly agree with all points and at some point today i have thought that the best option would be to just experience both traits and not try to be in one extreme only. imma take a look at divergent
