Accepting my personality type

I've always wanted to be an extrovert. Life seems like it's so much easier and so much more fun when you say what's on your mind instead of keeping it inside and mulling it over and then, possibly, speaking. At work, we've recently gone over our differing personality types. And last night, I did more research on mine. One thing I found is that its completely normal that I am not a tidy person. INFJs tend to be internally organized and externally disorganized. Just look at my piles. I'm constantly trying to keep up with them. It's not my strong point and quite honestly, I get bored with cleaning. It feels like so much work. I don't like to keep doing it over and over again. So, that's comforting. But it's still frustrating.

learning to like myself

Learning to like myself is an ongoing struggle. It's true, though, that I probably dislike myself more than others. My goal for tonight--which I spent alone, which is fine and I'm totally happy, is to accept that I like spending a lot of time alone.
