In two parts, I talk about 1) higher order thinking (and five states of mind) and 2) the higher side of anger (as represented by the Enneagram anger cluster). Pushing these two parts together, I consider the higher self and what opportunities it presents for growth.

[Disclaimer: I'm outside walking my dogs during this reflection. You will hear some wind and cars passing by. I hope you will still find this a worthy discussion.]

This reflection has two parts: 1) about my emotional reaction to the uncritical; and 2) about my new job and seeing myself in new ways. I try to bring all of it together around the idea of existential coherence.

This reflection is about J-on-J impact (as related to judging cognitive functions). I talk about sharing an office with an ESFJ and an ENFJ as well as my weekly dinners with an ISFJ friend. In all, I theorize a phenomenon I'm calling the J-rising (which deals with interpersonal contests).
