Often times, they'll simply take advantage of you, and sadly, since we love it when we're useful to other people, it can become a incredibly taxing. Its a problem, with one clear solution, to simply walk away. It is what it is.

I did a decent job as an “undercover shopper”, but surprisingly, my strongest skill set is in internal theft investigations. It seems like an unconventional thing to be so attracted to as this type, but it’s easier when you understand how much troubleshooting is really involved in identifying and resolving cases, and how far you can get by understanding your resources and knowing how to piece things together. ISTPs, don’t think your preference of sensing over intuition makes you ineffective as an investigator!

    It took me a long time to realize the best way to learn skills is to focus on a few at a time and give your all to it, rather than shoving as much info into every bit of time as possible. Learning this way is fighting against the way our brains was designed. Focus on one thing and hammer it down and repeat. Our whole lives we will be fighting the learning curve and learning is child’s play. Read a mind for numbers, it’s all about how to learn, and it’s basically what my friend said, start with the big picture, take it apart and put it back together. Good analogy’s are puzzles and brick laying, peace and love fam ✌️

    Fantastic advice! As an ISTP WTFyears leave you looming aimlessly, all it takes is to DEVOTE yourself to a skill (especially one aiding in self sufficiency) and things start falling into place. Don’t bother learning programming unless it really is that interesting, you starve your Se and your labor gets outsourced anyway. Start working out, pick up that guitar, and read that manual.

    Over the course of the past 9 years I designed and built my 3000 sq ft house myself from scratch learning all the skills required as needed along the way. I finally am finishing up next week and I’ve often wondered if it was an insane feat. I just learned about this personality classification system. Does the idea of building your home yourself this way appeal to any of you other ISTPs, or is it really crazy? Lol

    I knew I was actually an ISTP when I would watch UA-cam videos to learn how to do things like rebuilding a transmission, but I’d always forget and end up forgetting everything the video said and just start taking things apart.

    I remember coming to my friends' appartment to fix their printer. It was the 1st time I dismantled any printer but I was able to fix it in 1 hours or 2. It was basically like I was adapting what I learned from fixing my cars to other stuff. Same with plumbing I fixed at my former appartment.
    In the end, I think the skillset we try to learn doesn't really matter, the real important thing in my opinion is how to approach it. Understandig the role of the components or factors involved in every skill, to work on them one by one if we feel it is our weak point. Troubleshooting basically.

    I hate how I have to go through things myself to learn. I figured this out awhile ago but if I came across this video I wouldn't have taken it seriously at all.
    I don't know about your (but) after saying programming is a good choice. I think this might be a very good reason why ISTPs probably will do well in it because of Introverted Intuition. It allows the ISTP to niche down into something knowing so much and so well that not many others around are able to solve the specific problem they are able to.
    But yeah, definitely learning more than one skills is better and it's also fun to go through the process of knowing nothing to knowing more than everyone and maybe even innovating.

I was a well rounded child, and work well at everything of many different kinds of things of all subjects and categories. When ever tell people oh yea i can play violin, cook, dance, work with wood, i can draw, paint, fix electronics, garden, bind books, the list goes on. Some will say oh your just so naturaly good at everything, and im just like no there just easy. Breaking everything down to just the core parts of it then become an expert in those you can do anyrhing. I really like this video and i might take you up on your Challenge. I have to think of something new to learn tho. Maybe machine sewing and wood carving.

    When I bought an electric guitar to learn myself playing, first thing I did was to open it up and shield it to avoid static noise.
    When I bought a console first thing I did was to mod it even though I used soldering iron once before and it required soldering micro points on the motherboard. Did it and it worked.
    When I had a car I was doing everything on it myself cause I didn't trust the mechanics to do a goos enough job 😂 It got to a point that I wanted to replace the clutch on the sidewalk but I could lift the car high enough to remove the transmission. So I sold the sucker just like that.
    Was building PCs when it actually required some skills.
    Learning how to learn is the best advice cause we're really frantic and get easily distracted by the new shiny thing. Lack of discipline is something I always struggled with.

    ISTP dental student here. I feel like dentistry isn’t something that comes up as a fitting career as an ISTP. Dentistry requires mastery of various hand instruments and continually evolving technologies and is a career that is both mentally and physically engaging. I think all ISTPs that are interested in healthcare should look into it. Engineering and software development are other careers that I could see myself doing. I’m learning how to code currently as a new hobby and I already find it addictive
    The teaching thing you mentioned is very true. I do it all the time as a student to help me learn and I enjoy the positive feedback as well seeing as I’m not as socially inclined as I would like to be in most cases

I think you can learn things from people of all experience levels no matter what the subject is. I hate people that don't like to learn better more efficient ways simply cause they think they know best. Shit even the way I do things is being changed constantly trying to revise and perfect it.

After graduation I found a job of a site administrator, and then decided that I don't need to go to university and continued learning programming on practice. Now I work for a big company, but I'm scared to leave it because I don't have a degree and I have ISTP approach to coding. I don't want to learn technologies that I don't use, and will have to prove to the new company that I can learn very quick on practice if they give me a task. My current company values me because they know I can solve any problem.
    I also don't like to communicate, when the problem requires me to ask help or information from someone it stunts me.

    As an ENTP, ISTP's are my favourite partners in crime and fellow loners.. usually good at doing the 'things', however getting them to do my 'things' can be another story. They're super good hustlers/business men give space and time, however in the moment they can't outwitt me. Despite all the nonsense I spew with my big mouth they do take it on board. I can usually rely on their ego and cockiness to play predictably towards my own ends. We can be 100% earnest with ea other most of the time, despite ISTP's dubious nature. I feel like they're Eminem and I'm Slim Shady sometimes. They're equally as rebelious, irresponsible and manic as myself alot of the time too. IMO smarter than INTP more often than not. But when it comes to new things or people thats when they shy away and I lure them into the chaos. Funnily enough they will probably continue with those things or people well after I'm done.
