I was just wondering if perhaps if intelligence is related to being more inclined to the world of thoughts, and what goes on in your head, as well as introversion.
I know that it's related a bit, but is generally what it is? I know that for myself personally, I had a lot "issues" which things growing up (or at least I thought I did) and generally, I really thought that something was wrong with me because I couldn't easily go along with the flow or just be in the present and often I felt really bored by this.
A lot of people think I'm boring, and I spend lots of time doing things that re not very interesting to other people (at least, in a concentrated and regular way) and generally I like being a homebody, and it's hard for me to focus that much on the outside world. I've gotten better at it because I spend lots of time trying to get better at it, but often times spending time just focusing on the outside world kind of makes me feel disheartened a bit because I see so much that is wrong with it all of the time (society I mean)
I just find it strange.
I just find it interesting if the two lead to one another. Living in ones mind a bit then is interesting, because it's as if living in the world of the abstract separate from the one we live in. It is then, almost another world that we can create for ourselves.
I guess the problem is as well I have inferior Si, so even when I am tuned into the present, it's in a different way and thus I come across to others at times as "slow" but I find the small moments the most interesting and stimulating but it doesn't really exist for the purpose of existing to go, or get to any end destination like I think Se-doms are like as well (existing, to get more of what makes it itself?)
And then I'll for example, like strolls through a park, or just tender and quiet reprieves from the rest of the world and this looks like some sort of a mental problem to people, because it's not outwardly "doing something" (whatever that means) but of course, I have thus because of facing many of those situations kind of lost touch with my interior Si (is it inferior or interior?) but I find that I have sort of bad spatial awareness compared to a lot of other people, and I get frazzled and overwhelmed by too much outside stimuli and thus I come across as "slow" to many people, in fast paced physical environments, or just in general to people who do not understand this. I am like the Tortoise, and everyone else is the hare. : (
(for example, I cannot do a lot of labor or blue collar work because of this, or just because many of the people who do those jobs, do not like how I carry on, despite how efficient I may or may not be.)
