    Maybe you’re just a smart sensor? So you posted a question asking whether you were an INFJ or an INFP. But the question you might be avoiding, that dreaded question, is that you’re not actually doubting between that at all. In fact, what you’re really wondering about is: am I a sensor, or am I…

    What is introverted intuition? Introverted intuition is like a memorisation of complex patterns and associations that we make often less consciously, and intuitive judging is like the organisations of these complex patterns into a grand and unified theory or association of associations. I like to say that introverted intuition for an INFJ or INTJ is…

    HSP is the short term for Highly sensitive person. The HSP overwhelm is when reality – the five senses – and all the information around you is just too much, too intense, too overbearing. But there are many ways to manage HSP. It is not a curse, but a possibility. As an HSP, your primary way…

    The shadow side of an INFJ is the ESTP. And while the ESTP is often misportrayed an aggressive jock, INFJs in the ESTP mode are not necessarily aggressive types. Thinking and Perceiving in itself is rarely an aggressive or controlling function. INFJs under the influence of ESTP don’t turn into some sort of shadow jocks.…

    This is an excerpt from my most recent ebook, Next Steps For Neojungian Typology. Does Type Change? Personality is iffy and ever changing. This makes it hard to measure consistently. We are constantly being shaped by our environment and our experiences. We are constantly changing and reinventing ourselves. Perhaps the biggest issue for models like the…

    Lots of INFPs are constantly asking themselves how they can become better sensors and thinkers. How can I become more disciplined? They ask me.

    Sensing in itself is incredibly boring to most intuitives. Sensing rarely stimulates the intuitive, rather, it drains intuitives, making them feel less energy and less passion. Still, thanks to anxiety and stress, our body has built in a response that allows us to engage in sensing. Intuitives can engage in sensing because the stress or…
