Matt Sherman - Geek Psychology
@geekpsychology.bsky.social
Personality type coach and hypnotist at Geek Psychology. Writing about personality type (mainly INFP), self-development, and geek culture.
I’m running a tiny experiment.

I made an Evolve membership page that lets you join at $1 for 7 days.

Hopefully this'll help more INFPs find support, structure, and a place to refresh when life gets overwhelming.

Lurk, learn, see if it feels like home.

I bet in some area of your life, you're living inside the "future you once hoped for" and don’t recognize it.

There was a first time you felt angry.
A first time you felt sad.
A first time you realized you could push through something.

We forget that...
We act like these emotions and beliefs have always lived inside us.

But you learned them.
Which means you can learn new ones too.

I hate how defeatist INFPs can be.
We’re capable of creating so much good in the world.

I constantly see comments like:
“The world’s too corrupt. I can’t change anything.”

Know this:
On-quest INFPs are unstoppable.

Become passionate and take relentless action and you WILL make it happen.

Confidence isn’t the start.
It’s the reward.

Show up consistently, with intention, and you will become confident.

Learned helplessness says: “You can’t.”
Learned hopefulness says: “What if you could?”

Curiosity is the antidote to feeling stuck.

2 days ago, my daughter stood on a stage as a lost fish named Suimii.
She said her lines. Another forgot theirs. A kid sang early.

The room clapped like it was perfect.
• Kids don’t wait to be “ready.”
• They try, mess up, and try again.
• They let it be imperfect.

Just start swimming ^^

Trying to figure it all out from every angle before even showing up is a surefire way to not make any progress.

You can’t “think” your way out of anxiety or procrastination. It’s not a mindset issue.

It’s an unconscious alignment issue.

Every emotion, thought, belief, or habit is like a spell you’ve cast on yourself.

The problem is, most people don’t realize they’re the ones who cast them (or that they can choose a new one instantly).

With Mind Wizardry Hypnosis, I teach you how to cast a new S.P.E.L.L. that can transform anxiety

You understand that the changes you want to make are already within you, and hypnosis simply helps you access those inner resources, don't you?

Every emotion has a location in the body.

When you change its shape, color, location, or movement, the brain updates the whole story.

Want to feel better faster? Change the code, not the content.

"I'm probably not hypnotizable"

Heard this so many times.

But what most people don't realize is if you've ever gotten pulled into a movie, played pretend, or caught yourself daydreaming... you've been in hypnosis.

It's not a special gift, though it is special!

Most people think phobias are permanent and change has to take years.

The right principles, applied correctly, can create rapid transformation.

Your subconscious mind is not your enemy.

It's a creative partner that responds to curiosity, play, and imagery rather than force, logic, and willpower.

Something I've been thinking about: Your intuition is only as good as your starting point.

The way to recalibrate is to get more information, and start again.

Watching my son at the park today.

He put big rocks in his dump truck first, then filled the spaces with sand.

It reminded me of the old productivity principle: if you start with sand (trivial tasks), there's no room for rocks (what matters). But with rocks first, everything else fits around them.
