The personality workshop I recently attended identified a lot of Fringe Dweller traits in my personality.
Fringe Dwellers have been around a long time before the movie about Aboriginal Australians, or the hit TV series, "Fringe."
They don't live on the fringe… they live in it. They think so far out of the box that some have completely discarded it or attempted to destroy it.
They are Fringe-Dwellers to reality. Many are considered geniuses, for their ability to connect seemingly exclusive data. Some are just thought to be insane. It is this macro-web thinking that drives their visionary ingenuity.
They are Fringe-Dwellers to reason. They rely heavily on intuitive interpretation of the macro-web to guide their lives, many only using data to support their visions when they must communicate to the rest of society.
They are Fringe-Dwellers to tradition. Their thought patterns, being naturally conceptual, follow a less structured, less detail-oriented path. They are tuned more to experience and exploration than following a pre-defined set of events.
They are Fringe-Dwellers to society. The intricacies and subtleties of societal politics, interpersonal relationships, and societal-emotional dependencies are usually beyond their personal realm of importance.
Most have difficulty with communicating emotions intimately rather than globally or conceptually. They have a stronger connection with "the human condition" rather than with individual beings.
None of this means they are unable to function within society or with the accepted reality. However, living within the realm of the "norm" requires a lot of energy from these personalities to keep up the facade of conformance.
