Then mediocre I shall remain to you.
I don't usually make promises to strangers, but I can promise you this, I will continue to learn what I can learn, even if it means coming up with results none will agree with. I will keep learning, as learning is indeed a very good thing, but, I will learn at a pace most suitable to me.

Miserable? I think you don't know how to enjoy it. I find great satisfaction when I fulfil my purpose (which is gaining information). I feel lived. Every inch that I gain towards my goal, I know that my time is not wasted. I feel my time has been spent well. I know that I wont look back at the end of my life and say "I wish I did that too", because I will always knew "I did my best". Mediocre.
If you find satisfaction in your lifestyle, good for you. We are fine with ours. You can keep saying it's mediocre.
Once I'm done with pharmacy school, I'll feel even more satisfied than I already am. Life is a learning process, and I don't need to jam a bunch of stuff into my head all at once. I like to take my time.

The point me coming here was estabilishing the reason of being mediocre, for which the reason is absend. While you people try to think that you wish to live your life fulfiling emotions and just that (from which I can see), I do both. I explore everything possible. Including yours. I will leave that place...soon enough. And I won't look back and say "I missed something here". Besides, if you find my posts irritating (which I think you do), remember you can always turn on something else, do something else, stop reading. But I know you can't. Your life of mediocree makes you too sensitive to what people say about you. I'm really very sorry for you.
Yes and you don't know how to just enjoy a beautiful sunset, or the fact that you have a nice glass of red wine with the dinner your friends shared with you the way I do. I feel very fulfilled by those things. Those are my happy moments. Petting a cat. Reading a book. Even listening to music and chatting with people on-line. I feel very lucky that those things make me happy. I'll never look back and say "I wasted my life working or trying to please other people, I fully enjoyed my time on earth and did what I wanted to do." I have explored, too, I have traveled to other cities and tried crazy things and met new people. Why do you think my experience is limited just because I am not as goal or success oriented?
Also, calling people "mediocre" repeatedly doesn't make you better, it just makes you seem judgmental, and I don't really see what you think you're accomplishing. The fact that you think that doesn't affect me at all. I know that people like you exist and think that about people like me. Oh well. You aren't my boyfriend or someone whose opinion really affects me.

Of course you will. It's not like I hold your hand and say do this or do that. I can't do that. Besides, you probably live thousands of kilometers away from my place, so it's not even feasable to come and do that (not mentioning the legal complications that will follow). And you know what? You won't be first to do that. And not even the last. As I said, the chances that you will change is very little. Not because you are an ISFP, but because you are a human. If the life of mediocre is best suited to you, then so be it. Hey, I have no problems accepting people for who they are. I do not dwell on things that I can't change. However on the other hand...what a loss.
We can just keep debating, but you will still say we are mediocre. That's fine since we are fine with it. We'll still enjoy our lives.

Some people like to enjoy the moment, and being content is enough. We don't want to overachieve.
