Although I now wear a watch for many years i didn't bother. I knew instinctively what the time was to within a couple of minutes. I can set the timer on the oven and then walk into the kitchen just as the timer goes off as an example of my internal time keeping. Nothing to do with light or were the sun is in the sky, just natural instinct. I have been told that this is a good indicator of an INFP and that many INFP do not bother to wear watches because of it. Do others have this trait?

I only ask because I was told by a counselor that it was an indicator of an INFP. It's always good to confirm statements and where better to ask. :wink:

If i consciously think about time then I am in trouble, what day is it? what month? If some one asks me how old am I I have to think about it and only sometimes get it right. But knowing fairly precisely the correct time is something done unconsciously. If I thought about it I couldn't do it. Some one asks what time is it ? I just say the time without any thought connected to it People might not even realise they have the ability if they are used to wearing watches and looking at clocks etc. I used to do period battle reenactments where watches were a definite no no and people would ask me the time and rely on me for knowing at what time we needed to be some where. I'm sure it was an ability we would have needed in times past when there were no clocks. It would have useful in tribal society, we wouldn't have been great at warfare but at least we would have known when it was time to gather for feasting.
