it wears on me and eventually I'll start thinking "Can't any of you do any of this yourselves?"

Yes. This is always a problem for a competent INTJ. We eventually reach the point where it becomes a severe effort not to say, "f*** off and figure it out yourself, I've got better things to do than to babysit you."

Oh – and we both agree that Iron Maiden is simply the best band ever and there can be no argument on this fact.

None whatsoever. No debate, no discussion. IRON MAIDEN are the standard by which every other metal band is measured.

It's just that leadership is a tremendous drain on an INTJ's energy, which is why we generally don't want to do it."

Holy crap – that describes me to a T.
In a leadership type of situation I naturally seem to take charge and people naturally follow me, but it wears on me and eventually I'll start thinking "Can't any of you do any of this yourselves?"

I just discovered this blog and I'm working my way through your old posts in a random way. Expect some more comments.
