Who is an Independent Thinker?
The Psychology of Independent Thinker
The world’s best thinker is known as "Independent thinker"
Independent
Thinkers like you are analytical and witty persons. You are
self-confident and do not let yourself get worked up by conflicts and
criticism. You are very much aware of your own strengths and have no doubts
about your abilities. People of your personality type are often very successful
in their career as they have both competence and purposefulness. Independent
Thinkers are excellent strategists; logic, systematics and theoretical
considerations are your world. You are eager for knowledge and always endeavour
to expand and perfect your knowledge in any area which is interesting for you. Abstract
thinking comes naturally to you; scientists and computer specialists are often
of this type.
Independent Thinkers are specialists in their area. The
development of your ideas and visions is important to you; you love being as
flexible as possible and, ideally, of being able to work alone because you
often find it a strain having to make your complex trains of thought
understandable to other people. You cannot stand routine. Once you consider an
idea to be good it is difficult to make you give it up; you pursue the
implementation of that idea obstinately and persistently, also in the face of
external opposition.
As an Independent Thinker, you are one of the introverted
personality types. That is one of the reasons you prefer to work alone. This
does not mean that you cannot be successful in a team, as well. For you, the
task is most important and people who are involved come second. The contact
with others, the necessity to adjust yourself to their daily changing
sensitivities - all of it is just more gratuitous emotion that keep you from
totally devoting yourself to those things that truly interest you: analyzing
systems and policies, researching potentials for change, developing new ideas
and implementing them in reality.
Here you differ from the second introverted Thinker type,
the Analytical Thinker: You truly enjoy implementing your concepts and you
enjoy the results. Therefore you should look for a work environment where you
can accompany and expedite your ideas through to their conclusion. You consider
difficult situations as challenges that really try your creativity and you
frequently surprise people around you with genuinely incredibly bright ideas,
rendering others speechless with their excellence. Your world consists of
statistics, legitimacy, and systematics.
Considering all of this, your Thinker type is very
praxis-oriented, and by no means lives on an intellectual ivory tower. You are
not interested in theories not related to reality. As in chess, you are
excellent at predicting the consequences of your methods in advance, and then
choosing the appropriate alternative. Once you have made your decision on how
to deal with a situation, you are totally willing to use your elbows and you
don’t necessarily show any consideration for others. With that, you
occasionally encounter resistance from other, less task-oriented colleagues
that you quickly brush aside.
