yes just looked him up and it was one of his. Might have been better as 'Hell is most other people' but then I would say that with my INTJ personality

You can chalk up one your successes today is that you've got me into Sartre's philosophies. He got God summed up well.

That'd figure

There are no good or bad answers to Jung personalities but IMHO it's good to know what you are

I remember one management offsite where we all had to be Junged (yet again) and one of the arseholes in the team said something like 'we only want E personalities in this team' The facilitator gave him a look and said something like 'you stupid boy' Not long after he left.

Post by: Steve on March 09, 2021, 05:57:05 PM: I think it was same facilitator who gave me the best definition of Extrovert and Introvert. It's not about who talks most per se, it's about whether you get your energy from interacting with people or not.
