I associate my notion of autotelic self with Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced “chick-sent-mE-hi”), an academically-leading researcher in creativity. I was earlier (2009) delighted to see his synoptic report of empirical research on the “autotelic personality,” titled “Flow Theory and Research,” in The Oxford Handbook of Positive Psychology; but the sense of personality there doesn’t imply a richly self-enhancive sense of one’s potential (which MC ambitiously prospected 15 years earlier in Evolving Self, 1993, and I’ve long since gone my own way). |

| a sense of Self / [inter]personal difference | may 2011 | ||
| innerworldliness of one Self (futurity, past) irt many other-oriented identities (intimate, parent, professional...), derivative of oneself and multiple roles defining each personal identity |

| transpersonal differencing | may 2011 | ||
| an expression of practicality and preface to upcoming work on this page. |
||
| a sense of manifold selfidentity alive through stable character | may 2011 | ||
| This expands earlier prospecting of a notion of selfidentity in complement with what’s above. |
||
| appropriative thinking | may 2011 | ||
| This is a practical mode of a philosophical interest that’s much older than a 2007 discussion of it. |
||
| idealizing a protean intrapsychality Of being in Time | may 2011 | ||
| Multimodalization of psychal engagement anticipates a communion of high discourse.
