I consider myself an INTJ and got 120/200 the first time. I tried again and got 140/200. The questions were really interesting.

I found a random EQ test.

INTJs, share your results. I got 85/200 that is apparently below average. I’m laughing so hard. I thought I picked all the nice answers.

Please list your type if you’re not INTJ and like to share your results.

You’re not a shitty person just because some people don’t acknowledge you or appreciate your worth. You matter. You are loved. You’re not defined by what other people think of you. Better yet, why define yourself at all? A definition has limits and boundaries. Seek only to grow, expand, evolve, and change. The right people will persist in your life or appear in due time. Love yourself; focus on yourself; take care of yourself; radiate love, goodness, and kindness; seek knowledge; express gratitude daily; pursue the things that tug at your soul. All else will follow. You’ll be alright. Keep your head up. - stayhungry-stayfree

Geschätzte Leserinnen und Leser der Wechsellandzeitung!

Advent, Weihnachten, Jahreswechsel - Jahr für Jahr das Selbe, aber doch irgendwie immer wieder neu und aufregend, so präsentieren sich uns die letzten Wochen des Jahres.

Viele Menschen nehmen sich vor, die Advent- und Weihnachtszeit ruhiger und besinnlicher zu gestalten. Sich nicht von der Hektik überfüllter Einkaufzentren und stressiger Festvorbereitungen anstecken zu lassen. Oder einfach nur bei Punsch, Glühwein und Keksen etwas zurückhaltender zu sein.

Aber irgendwie scheint das nicht so richtig zu klappen. Die vielen Lichter in den Straßen und Gärten, all die aufwändigen Dekorationen an den Häusern, die stimmungsvolle Musik in den Geschäften - all das ist einfach zu verlockend um widerstehen zu k��nnen.

Für viele Sparten der Wirtschaft ist die Vorweihnachtszeit aber eine der wichtigsten im ganzen Jahr um die Bilanzen aufzubessern und die nötigen Gewinne einzufahren. Und während die einen noch ihre Schäfchen ins Trockene bringen, beginnen die anderen schon das nächste Jahr zu planen.

Wir, das Team der Wechsellandzeitung, sind auch schon wieder voller Begeisterung mit der Planung des kommenden Jahres beschäftigt, um Sie, liebe Leserinnen und Leser, weiterhin mit interessanten und wichtigen Artikeln aus dem Wechselland zu versorgen. Lassen Sie sich überraschen und erwarten Sie mit uns ein spannendes Jahr.

Somit wünsche ich Ihnen, im Namen Wechsellandzeitung und der Wirtschaftsplattform Wechselland ein geruhsames, besinnliches Weihnachtsfest und einen glücklichen, erfolgreichen Start ins neue Jahr.

Ihr Franz Scherbichler

sometimes all it takes to make things a little more okay is for someone to say “I believe in you.” As a kid who was made to feel like nothing I did was good enough, taught that any form of failure was bad instead of a learning experience and felt judged from friends and family what I needed was for someone to say to me “I believe in you.” Whether this had come from a peer, a teacher or a family member I could have avoided so much. For me to believe in myself when I was younger I needed for someone to believe in me first. If someone you know is struggling, or if you know someone who is young, please, please, please tell them that you believe in them. You never know if they might need it.

can I just say that being a student is hard on its own. But being a student struggling with mental health, physical health problems, bullying, home issues or anything like that, that’s out of your control is so extremely difficult. Being a student with any and all of these issues and more is hard, I know but this, like everything, is temporary. Things will get better and at times, they might get worse but you will overcome everything in your way so don’t sacrifice your education. Please. It is so worth it, get through as best you can and seek therapy, talk to your teachers so they know you might need more help. It’s going to be okay, finish your high school education, finish your uni or college education and do whatever you need to do to just finish. Your diplomas can get you so far, you won’t regret carrying on. My love, prayers and endless support is with you. You can do this. Please finish your education.

you will make it out alive. you will have done it. that future version of you exists. a happy one, one that looks back at you and is so glad you did not give up.

That is how education should be...

Shout out to my Arabic teacher that looked at us yesterday mid-lesson and said, “I’m worried. You all look exhausted and depressed.”

Of course we were all like, “Oh yeah we’re dead inside, you haven’t noticed?”

And he snapped shut the textbook, threw up his hands and said, “That’s not healthy! No more vocab! Time for dancing!”

And he taught us a dance from Iraq and we danced instead of doing vocab. We didn’t stop dancing until he saw all of us laughing and was satisfied that we were all feeling better. It was perhaps the coolest, most kind-hearted thing I’ve ever seen a college instructor do.

When your head hits the pillow tonight, remind yourself that you’ve done a good job. You are headed down your path at your own pace, and with every obstacle you are trying your utmost best. Be patient with yourself, and remember that big things are achieved not all at once, but one day at a time.

it’s hard being a student.

It’s hard being a student when emotionally, your life outside of the classroom seems like it’s being torn to bits.

It’s hard being a student when you feel like you’re the most lonely person on the planet and like no one will ever understand you or even love you enough to tolerate all of your baggage.

It’s hard being a student when you cry a lot of the time. Because the tears get in the way of your vision and the heartache gets in the way of your focus, and no one should ever have to cry and study for a midterm or write a research paper all at the same time.

It’s hard being a student when your family doesn’t understand. Anything. At all.

It’s hard being a student when you’re also a person, a real life breathing human being who needs things like food and water and social interaction and maybe a little bit of love to survive healthily.

It’s hard being a student when you want other things so bad.

It’s hard being a student when it all gets too much and too overwhelming to handle and all of the unfinished check boxes of you planner won’t stop reminding you that you have to get this done or else you’ll absolutely fail and die.

It’s hard being a student when you’re just so tired. of everything.

It’s hard being a student. I know it is. Because I feel it. All the time.

But you’ve come this far. And I hope you can learn to be a little more gentle on yourself. And I hope you remember one day your hard work might just pay off for a life you’ve deserved. One day the pain will go away.

But I need you to keep going. I need you to stay in this world and fight today.

Because being a student is hard. But the pain of giving up a whole lot of hope and dreams is harder.

I don’t know if this is true, because I never heard of underlined or something for that matter. But as a writer, this is worth reposting. If someone has more information and/or proof - please share as well.

Underlined PSA

Figment, the recently closed writing website, has just launched (after a long delay) their long-awaited successor to figment known as Underlined, where users can post their work and receive feedback, supposedly.

DO NOT USE UNDERLINED. DO NOT POST YOUR WORK ON UNDERLINED.

Underlined’s terms and conditions contains a clause stating that the rights to all your work that you post on their website belongs to them!!!!

Underlined belongs to Penguin Random House. This is an extremely dirty trick for them to play on writers, especially young writers and children, who come to the internet to get feedback and will lose the rights to their work. Please boost!!!

[theinkless]

A reminder that no matter what, you deserve to feel loved, respected and cared about. You belong on this earth and no one can take away your self worth. You deserve every good that life can give and success that your hard work merits. You are important and if no one around you has said this to you today, I love you.
