    Do you have suggestions/resources on how to reach a point of clarity? It can’t be alchemy. :)
    I know the weakness of INTP is seeking to know too much and do too little, but it seems that clarity is a roadblock I consistently encounter and haven’t been able to overcome.

    As an INFJ who did grow up with the “You can do anything” messaging, this podcast has been incredibly helpful. While conscious incompetence hasn’t completely stopped me, it has drained me of energy and motivation. Just knowing that this is a normal part of the process is completely motivating in itself. It’s like I can channel all of the energy I used to put towards saying “This is so hard, how can I manage to push through when it won’t matter anyway” towards “I can make a plan from recognizing the distance from where I am to where I want to be. And the pain and discomfort doesn’t matter because it doesn’t determine the outcome.”

    As an INFJ who grew up with the opposite of the “you can do anything” message, I find it very useful to pair this podcast with the How to be a Good Critic episode. It can be very difficult as a child to build esteem
    & continue along (or even establish) a trajectory without good support, calibration & modelling. Lacking these, a child can give up striving if nothing is ever good enough & then face underachievement or else internalize the criticism & become a perfectionist. As an adult one then needs to establish healthy boundaries & self-talk & find a kinder & more positive inner circle.
