I venture that the most important part to any blog would be the actual posts. Too bad I haven’t been writing many. How typically INFP of me.
Considering that INFPs like things open-ended, it’s a bit ironic that we have this tendency towards perfectionism. I want everything to be just right before I dive in, whether it’s finding the perfect time to begin or making sure everything is exactly right before I continue further.

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.
