Greetings David,

Well, there is a one-word descriptor sometimes attached to each of 
the sixteen types.  Maybe that could be helpful.  Take the test 
again.  It's just kind of fun.  This test was taken a few years after 
reading ZMM for the first time.  I thought it was interesting.  The 
types seemed like patterns of value (SQ), preferences, 
tendencies.  And thinking about things from a new and different MBTI, 
perspective was helpful.

INTP, is often labeled 'the thinker', but I consider it 'the 
student'.  The questions go on into eternity.  I can think of nothing 
more exciting.

You remember the 'creative label'.  Was it helpful to you?  Are you 
in a creative profession?  Are you creative in a non-creative 
profession?  Are you creatively frustrated?  You could take the MBTI 
online test.  As long as you remember it's a pattern and an analogy, 
its interesting.

As a labeled 'thinker', I chose to quit my job to paint.  Best 
decision I ever made, but I must confess I'm more thrilled by the 
thinking part of painting.  I care little for the fame or fortune 
dream, and love the process of thinking it through and receiving some 
interesting creative surprises.  And, of course, I fall-in-love with 
everything I paint.

In the end, it Lila is 'the game of Life'.  MBTI is just one possible 
puzzle piece.

Marsha
