Mind over Matter

The mind is strange, beautiful thing. It can do amazing things that are unexplainable in science. Deep in the depths of the mind is the unknown.

The way neurons process images and beauty are mind-blowing. The mind can capture memories from years ago. It is able to sense surrounding and verbalize thoughts.
It is able to create virtual realities that we call dreams. It is able to learn knowledge and apply it to life.

The mind is something that truly amazing, and we may never know the true extent of what it is able to create; I'm strangely okay with that. If we knew everything about the mind, there would be no magic.

One of those days

It hasn't even been a good few days since I started my writing goal. I'm already drawing a blank.

I have ideas but I'm still drawing a blank. I have many drafts but none of them are "right". They are not wrapped in a nice package and ready for reading. They are in their raw state of writing. They look extremely rough.

A sentence here. A fragment there. Gibberish everywhere.

It's one of those days where nothing seems good. I'm still writing though. I'm keeping my promise, and I'm talking through my frustration through my writing.

Writing is very therapeutic for me. It is all very tranquil. This is one of reasons why I started writing again. I wanted to encourage myself to reflect on my life.

Blogging is very hard. I have to sit myself down and encourage myself to write my thoughts on virtual paper. Sometimes I just don't want to. However, I know it's for the best. You have to look at the big picture.

Farwell, I might have a better post for you guys tomorrow. Alright bye.

Personality Test: Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (INTJ)

By Definition: The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is an extensive questionnaire on the way people view and make decisions in the world. It also helps identify the personality type of an given person.

The mother-daughter team of Katherine Briggs and Isabel Briggs Myers created the questionnaire inspired by Carl Jung. The questionnaire was based off the four concepts of sensation, intuition, feeling, and thinking. 

The opposite end of each spectrum became a letter. In total, it made sixteen personalities. I found this chart that illustrates the concept a little better:

I found it extremely intriguing how accurate these personalities are at representing a person. It is amazing how a few questions can accurate portray a person's paersonality. The intensive research put into this study is phenomenal.

When taking the test myself I discovered my personality type was INTJ. Apparently that means I belong to the analyst group. I was a little surprised when the page told me that I had one the rarer personality types, but it makes sense "INTJs form just two percent of the population, and women of this personality type are especially rare, forming just 0.8% of the population - it is often a challenge for them to find like-minded individuals who are able to keep up with their relentless intellectualism and chess-like maneuvering" (16personalities.com). I never really found anyone that is a mirror image of me--personality wise. I have always had friends that share a few traits with me. They complement me as person, but they never seem like "twins". 



I would never physically shoot anything. 
It's a metaphor
Some famous INTJs are Martin Luther, Issac Newton, John F. Kennedy, Mark Zukerburg, Lewis Carroll, and Steven Hawking. 

I even came across fictional characters that supposedly have the INTJ personality: Katniss Everdeen, Stewie Griffin, Mr. Darcy, Willy Wonka, and Sherlock. Fictional characters are up for debate. I have read many interpretations of INTJs in the fictional world. Feel free to add to or take anything away from the list. This topic is always up for debate. 


The personality type of INTJ (Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, and Judging) is very isolated and observing. I never realized how analytic and private I am as a person.

I am very reserved. Some people classify that as me being shy. I kindly disagree, I just don't care for the conversation. I rather be alone than in a crowd of people.

I glorify knowledge and rationality.  I side with the side of rational thinkers. The cliche "knowledge is power" applies to my life in every aspect.

INTJs unite! (It is probably a good thing that there is not too many INTJs in the world. They would probably battle for dominance and cause an intense world-wide war.)

I would to know your personalities type.  Here is the exact test that I took: http://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test . I also took this test too: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp .I had to make sure my results were somewhat accurate. I even took a third test: http://www.truity.com/test/type-finder-research-edition 


Feel free to leave your personality type in the comments. See you tomorrow.

OMG.
