I'm at a point in my life where I have gone through a lot of recent changes. Going from living in a party house to being seen as a hermit in some peoples eyes. I believe i have always had the predisposition to be able to evaluate one self and ones actions. Self awareness has long been knows as a sign of intelligence and I think most people do experience some amount of it during their lives. I'd also go as far to assume that people without the capacity or without the drive to look at themselves from an outside perspective tend to never gain a sense of complacency during their lives and tend to have a very bleak outlook on the world along with a personality that seems vacant and unappealing to myself at least.

So basically i have been spending countless hours examining myself as a person reading, seeing what resonates with me and cutting out the bullshit of society. Reflecting on past events such as childhood and the nurturing of my parents to try and paint a picture of my life and who I am at my most basic levels. Its almost as though i have been searching for the ultimate truth in my life. I tend to take into account what a natural lifestyle would entail through the concept that in society we have created a life which does not benefit ourselves as organisms but a life that is more beneficial to a machine we call progress.

Psychology has played a big part in this journey of self discovery but i have noticed a few trends in which I cannot ignore especially when it comes to profiling. I have been constantly evaluating myself to try and place myself into one of these introvert / extrovert / INTJ / INTP types of profiles. It seems whenever I do I feel myself yearning for a stimulation that seems to exist inside another profile. I feel as though there is a more basic less complicated approach to these patterns we see via intellectual capacity being a baseline and nurturing and environment being the defining factors of actions taken during a lifetime. I feel as though the higher baseline you have for intelligence the more likely you will be to ignore some of these nurturing and environmental factors. Think of a sheep leaving the mindless heard.

Overall I'm at the point where where I can sift through bullshit quite well and the abundance of psychological profiling that's been taking place since the 1970's seems like a cry for help with people feeling disconnected from others looking to find their place in this world through this profiling scapegoat.

TLDR; psychology gets too much undue credit
