Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging
This self-confidence, sometimes mistaken for simple arrogance by the less decisive, is actually of a very specific rather than a general nature
Yeah, people mistaken me as snob especially when I am alone. But I am just confidence to some specific things-not all dude!
When it comes to their own areas of expertise -- and INTJs can have several -- they will be able to tell you almost immediately whether or not they can help you, and if so, how. INTJs know what they know, and perhaps still more importantly, they know what they don't know.
Hahaha! Yeah! I can tell you abruptly whether I could help you or not after you stated your problem. XD I am a know-it-all kind of person. 'Cause I know there are still a lot of things I needed to know and learn. =D
INTJs are perfectionists, with a seemingly endless capacity for improving upon anything that takes their interest.
Yeah. I am really perfectionist to things that really hooked me up. If they're not, I'm not perfectionist at all. Hahaha! Who wants to be a perfectionist to things that they don't like doing? Uh? 0_o XD
What prevents them from becoming chronically bogged down in this pursuit of perfection is the pragmatism so characteristic of the type: INTJs apply (often ruthlessly) the criterion "Does it work?" to everything from their own research efforts to the prevailing social norms.
Hahahaha! Guilty! I use practical approach to problems and affairs. And always ask, 'Does it work? uh?' :)) XD
This in turn produces an unusual independence of mind, freeing the INTJ from the constraints of authority, convention, or sentiment for its own sake.
This is what I really am. Though I follow morally norms, I always make myself free from authority. Even the strict social norms people are following, I don't stick to them that much. Because life won't be life at all if you always follow the desires of this world. Follow your heart dude!--your mind too! =D XD
INTJs are known as the "Systems Builders" of the types, perhaps in part because they possess the unusual trait combination of imagination and reliability.
Yeah! I imagine a lot. :)) But being reliable? Don't know! Wahaha! XD
both perfectionism and disregard for authority may come into play, as INTJs can be unsparing of both themselves and the others on the project.
Just what like I said, let your imagination take you to greatness! =D XD
Anyone considered to be "slacking," including superiors, will lose their respect -- and will generally be made aware of this
Yeah! I don't like slackers though I am one of them too. -_- :)) XD
INTJs have also been known to take it upon themselves to implement critical decisions without consulting their supervisors or co-workers
Aheaheahe.. I think that's why some people call me 'pasaway'. Tsk tsk. XD
On the other hand, they do tend to be scrupulous and even-handed about recognizing the individual contributions that have gone into a project, and have a gift for seizing opportunities which others might not even notice.
Yeah! That's one of the most important things to me, recognizing the hard work of other people on the project. I really specify it, praise it, and suggest more if possible. =D XD
Seizing opportunities? I don't know! I just say 'yes' most of the times in my life. Nobody knows what fun and excitements are coming our way! =D XD
In the broadest terms, what INTJs "do" tends to be what they "know". Typical INTJ career choices are in the sciences and engineering, but they can be found wherever a combination of intellect and incisiveness are required (e.g., law, some areas of academia). INTJs can rise to management positions when they are willing to invest time in marketing their abilities as well as enhancing them, and (whether for the sake of ambition or the desire for privacy) many also find it useful to learn to simulate some degree of surface conformism in order to mask their inherent unconventionality.
In short, any job that is not conventional. Hahaha! XD I love science. In fact, it is my first college course, biochemical engineering. But then, I am now pursuing the 'out-of-nowhere-degree which is BS-CSIT specialize in System and Software Engineering. Engineering still. Hahahaha! But I want to pursue a Masters in Business Administration after some savings. =D XD
Personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, can be the INTJ's Achilles heel. While they are capable of caring deeply for others (usually a select few), and are willing to spend a great deal of time and effort on a relationship, the knowledge and self-confidence that make them so successful in other areas can suddenly abandon or mislead them in interpersonal situations.
Yeah yeah yeah.. I used to be like this 100%-Achilles heel. But then, I am still 100% to the rest of the lines. I love and care so much the people who are close to my heart, especially my family. =D However, in the last line, I can be like that for a short time after a great distress about certain 'relationship'. XD
This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand. Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense. Only instead of expecting inexhaustible affection and empathy from a romantic relationship, the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness.
I used to be like that 100%. But after I had 'someone', 100% turned to 1%. Hahaha! But now, I'm getting into it again. And I love of being who I am. =D And yeah, I prefer direct expression of words than just by being quiet and leaving me guessing. -_- I guess that's why people say that I am 'slow'.
Probably the strongest INTJ assets in the interpersonal area are their intuitive abilities and their willingness to "work at" a relationship. Although as Ts they do not always have the kind of natural empathy that many Fs do, the Intuitive function can often act as a good substitute by synthesizing the probable meanings behind such things as tone of voice, turn of phrase, and facial expression. This ability can then be honed and directed by consistent, repeated efforts to understand and support those they care about,
Yeah, Of course. I value relationships still. I can give great deal of time to work out every relationships. However, understanding too of the other person is needed. -_-
and those relationships which ultimately do become established with an INTJ tend to be characterized by their robustness, stability, and good communications.
Yeah yeah yeah. Communications really mattered. Especially to me who doesn't rely on Fs. I want direct expression of feelings thru words too. 'Cause I am not a guesser or a fortune-teller. -_-
------------------------
That's it, that's it! I know myself more than anyone else! Hahaha! Thanks to this. This is the third time I took this personality test. The first and second, which I have already forgotten the meanings, were at school. XD
