Creativity and intrinsic interest diminish if task is done for gain
This hits home with me. I personally don't want to do anything unless I'm intrinsically motivated to do it.
How you personally react to extrinsic motivation? Do you feel you are at your best when intrinsically motivated?
What does it mean for an INTP to be working hard? What are some characteristics of hard work? Was there a moment in your life when you feel you consistently began to work hard?
(Prompted by this post by snowqueen)
This thread is to gather experiences and resources related to math. I'm personally much more interested in hearing about what fascinates and draws you to mathematics. Tell me why you love it and why you're passionate about it; I'd like to catch your passion if you have any.
I want your...
Cog made me wonder if it's a common thing amongst INTP's (and INFP's) to not like to be touched. I think I'd also lump 'personal space' in this.
I hate starting threads because I feel like I set the tone for the replies and if I should get anything meaningful out of them I might need to...
Seen it? What are your thoughts on their personality types?
I still need to watch 42 and 49 so I'll be coming back to the thread when I'm finished. It's on pirate bay if you're interested.
Sorry for the barrage of questions.
Where do you like to read?
What is the most comfortable way to read? How do you read when you're in bed?
What special items do you own to aid in your reading? (for mood, comfort, efficiency, light, favorite bookmark..)
Can/do you read with music on? Do...
This forum is probably the nicest community I've ever found online. We're supposedly robotic, cold, analytical, and depressed.. but empathy seems to be a reigning characteristic here.
I've felt slightly less than human my entire life. Perhaps in some ways this forum has reinforced that feeling...
I was supposed to graduate last Spring, but the paper I had turned in for my History seminar was shit. It was one of the rougher patches in my life, but I still had managed to do rather well and thought I'd be graduating. Unfortunately, the professor ended up not liking my paper so much that she...

Social interaction is great when we can chameleon, but what happens when the ability diminishes? For me, one-on-one communication is really easy with just about anyone. However, when more people come into the mix, that's when things start to break down. I'm anxious and don't really know what to...
Not a suggestion, but a question.
Is it the length of the post? Amount of links? Is it the nature of my character? The individual forum?
I'm sure the answer is really simple and it's in the rules somewhere. It doesn't really matter, but I usually see a major problem with a post after I submit...
Connecting with ESFP
Edit: Nevermind; I found the direction I needed to go in. It was like pulling teeth, but I think I get it and I have a lot to work on.
But still, this type (along with ISTJ) seems like the one I've been having the most difficulty communicating with. What are some...
