If you actually wish to know, it was a combination of conversations with one person and seeing somebody else's lj. Apparently, though I still lack certain interpersonal skills, I seem to be an intrapersonal genious. Which is to say that I actually have a good handle on what makes me tick. And I find it rather strange and bizarre that other people don't understand how they themselves think. That just... boggles my mind. Totally and utterly boggled. How can you not know how your own mind works?
Well, I wouldn't have asked if I didn't want to... but I'm nosey that way.
Well, I certainly can't claim to understand some of how I work. In some aspects - especially in the way I program - I don't have the faintest idea because it is all subconscious (which is both helpful and bloody inconvenient). I guess some of it might be down to never really spending all that much time thinking about how I work inside.
