I’ve been trying to get into the habit of visualizing myself as a type-P for a while now and I keep feeling like I’m missing some other factor or two.
I’m not sure if it’s because I’m still trying to grasp the concept of personality types that are not just descriptions of people, but instead they describe themselves, or if it’s because of my own personal history.
I’ve always had a tendency to put myself in the wrong box. Perhaps it stems from a childhood of being told that I was “too smart for my own good” or “not smart enough to be in the gifted program”.
I was never a “smart” kid, but I was always the smartest in my class. So, instead of being called up to the gifted program, I was put into an “academic enrichment program”.
Somehow being in a program that was designed to move kids who were already a year ahead of me to the next level was supposed to make me dumb. It didn’t.
Puritanism is a spiritual current of Calvinism that wished to "purify" the Church of England from Catholicism from 1559 and in New England from 1630.
This doctrine of the Puritans has taken on a figurative meaning today, often pejorative, of the conduct of those who profess a certain moralism and rigorism. "In common parlance, a "Puritan" is a person who is austere, rigid, hostile to all pleasures: "purity" with which one readily associates a tinge of ostentation, even hypocrisy, without any particular religious affiliation[1]."
