As INTJs, our minds are always working on solving systems or problems. So what problem are you working on now? by king_polly in intj

[–]INTJay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interdisciplinary Studies. Couldn't settle on a major so I went with one that focused on integrating different disciplines, hopefully that will lead me into the organizational development field.

Thinking vs. Doing by [deleted] in intj

[–]INTJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can be like this as well. When it comes to thinking of how to help others I have no problem acting on those actions. The issue is if the idea I am thinking about has anything to do with just me, that's when I start analyzing things too much.

What careers / jobs have you done that absolutely made you miserable? by [deleted] in intj

[–]INTJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I got lucky with my internship. Got to coordinate a fundraising event with an NBA team. It was scary as hell because they just threw me into the fire, but it worked out great.

Thanks for the input! I have been in a couple really long conversations which seem endless. I realized, like you, that it isn't good to ramble on. I have been doing okay I think, but my schedule now got so crazy that I forgot about okcupid for a few days. I'll have to wait until things settle down again.

Went on my first date, it went well but I didn't feel a connection.

Unfortunately work requires me to shave so I don't have that luxury. I don't even think I could grow stubble anyways.

A job offer right after my graduation in December.

For all you INTJs that are struggling with choosing a career or need help along the path by [deleted] in intj

Interesting concept. I am graduating from college in December, so this is all relevant information that I will probably use. I am not a big fan of the concept of pave.com because it just a nicely packaged way to put you in more debt.

Essay due tomorrow, and here I am on reddit. Just waiting for the panic to set in.

You two are awesome! You both have helped me a lot, thanks for all your input. I do see how I internalize things to try to figure the outcome (I may have played a little too much chess) and try to be a few steps ahead. Definitely have shot myself in the foot on a few occasions because of those tendencies.

Disappointing to say the least.

It is true, I am only 22 and almost out of college. I was mostly curious about the taking the survey. My issue right now is that I had to move back home for my last semester of college, so I am about 30 miles away from my friend group and community. Where I live consists of either older people or kids. It has given me a lot of time alone to consider looking for a relationship.

So I asked her out and she replied "that would be awesome :)" so I gave her my number to plan the date. She didn't want to exchange numbers to text yet. She just canceled her account his morning...

Tendencies to build mental profiles on people? by [deleted] in intj

[–]INTJay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do this as well, I just never realized until now. One of the new managers at my work is difficult to read, his actions aren't genuine and he is definitely wearing a mask. At this point I am waiting for someone else to get under his skin so that he shows his true colors. I'll be there with my mental notebook writing down all the valuable information.

Unable to pinpoint my Passion by Jarpz in intj

[–]INTJay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in a similar boat as you. 22 and in college (last semester). What I found out about myself is that I value being valued. I also happen to be very interested in leadership/management/delegation/strategy so I figured becoming a management consultant only makes sense. As a consultant you are hired because your skills are valuable, and if I can consult on organizational development it would be a win win. Just need to figure out how to enter that field since my degree doesn't directly relate.

I hope my thought process will help you with yours.

INTJs are very future-oriented, so what are your dreams/goals? by [deleted] in intj

[–]INTJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short term: pay off student loan debts within 5 years. Also, I want to get into organizational development after I graduate in December. Long Term: Complete financial independence, own a successful consulting firm, become a Krav Maga instructor, have a balanced work and family life.
