that was kind of a screaming aaaaah... not a relaxing sigh aaawwwhh. and sorta because I'm not really screaming.. but I am.. but I'm not.. but I am... etc.
that test I took a few months ago.. listened to the conversation w/ the fella again the other day.
a summary:
he said I scored off the charts in certain areas (this isn't a good or a bad thing.. just makes me not "fit in")
* extreme introvert
*high diagnostic reasoning score
*high spacial reasoning score
*high analytical reasoning score
*high "maestro" score ... meaning that my mind works very differently from the general crowd - the opposite would be considered a tribal...
*high idea flow - which means my mind comes up with ideas quickly/often, creative, etc.... also means usually have poor stick-to-itedness... hard time concentrating... high idea flow is good for say a comedian, artist, short projects... etc.
there were others but these were the ones that I was "off the charts" on and seem to be the most important in a career choice.. (minus analytical skills.. he said it is beneficial, but doesn't "choose" the path). The other is the infp... I think that is what I am...
anyhoo, he said with the scores and the infp bit.. I make up like 1/4 of 1% of the population.. and so if I don't feel understood or connect with folks, there is a reason.
oh.. also .. w/ the infp bit... those types need to do something they care about. so for example, let's say I'm a photographer... and I care about animal rights... well doing fashion shoots will probably drive me crazy.. sure I'm doing something I'm talented/good at/enjoy.. but if I dont' care about it.. I'll lose interest....
So.. the question he said I should ask myself is what in the world do I want to fix, what problem do I want to solve....... etc...
ack
aaah.... (a demi scream)
