    1) That was a brilliant observation there at the end Joel. Self-esteem is generally regarded as positive or negative when instead it should be just as the name states: one’s accurate and authentic view of oneself.

    2) If you’re aware of Clifton Strengths, they define Positivity as influencing a room positively almost just by your presence. As an INTP, it’s no surprise that this strength is low for me, as in #34, dead last. I joke that when I walk into a room, shoulders unconsciously slump. I joke, but obviously it’s an insecurity that correlates to my inferior Fe. But in the big picture, I’m OK with that because I feel accomplished if I make people think. It’s funny, but if I’m talking to a group, I value contemplative silence rather than affirming applause.

    3) Finally,for young xxTPs who are insecure (and judgemental) about competence and knowledge, as simple as it seems, this XKCD comic helped to change my perspective: https://xkcd.com/1053.
