Random INFP:
I follow the Pareto principle also known as the 20/80 Rule. It states 80% of effects comes from 20% of causes. In other words 80% of sales comes from 20% of clients. 80% of your feeling of happiness and fulfillment comes from 20% of your activities. 80% of the useful INFP resources on the web comes from 20% of the sites.
This is my 20%:
I don’t just want to recommend books. I want to tell you why these books can be helpful to an INFP personality. Read my review of the book and see if any of these books can help you like they’ve helped me. See the reviews.
I like talking to other INFPs. I always have. This is my list of places that I visit online when I want to connect to other INFPs. See the list.

I'm an INFP. I'm pretty good at it. This is my only qualification for writing an INFP blog.
Thank goodness for the low barriers to self-publication.
As a dayjob, I work in web development because no one will pay me to be professional dilettante. By night, I use my superpowers to wage unending war against writer's block and procrastination.
My unfinished design portfolio site. I will eventually finish it if I need to find another job.
My personal daily blog detailing how I'm trying to achieve my goals. It's where I take all the things I espouse in this blog and try to prove it.
The problem with being shy from kindergarten through high school was that when I moved out into the real world I didn't have any understanding of other people. Studying the Myers-Briggs helped. Even though MBTI types helped as a tool to cut through the layers between myself and other people, the MBTI was a hacksaw where I needed a knife. I needed something more discerning.
I discovered the New Personality Self-Portrait (PSP) shortly after finding the MBTI and found that the two worked perfectly together. Where the MBTI told me that INFPs were idealistic, the PSP told me what that particular INFP was most idealistic about, whether it was relationships or work or self-discovery. The PSP let me figure out what was most important in lives of others.
