Very insightful! It paints a really good picture of all the judging functions. I really enjoyed this podcast. ?
Thanks Guys,
I am very concerned with the ideal of ‘perfect’ communication, wherein others grasp what you were intending to convey, and this isn’t just about word-choice. I have to communicate company policies, via web-page and print, and recently circulated a very tricky policy mentioning criminal liabilities, thinking this time I’d done it ‘efficiently’ (i.e. quickly, without too much pondering), only to regret it as being badly arranged and lacking sufficient clarity (someone’s query helped me realise this). I would later ‘fix’ the issues and re-distribute it, after having something of a meltdown at a team meeting!
It would have been more ‘efficient’ and ‘effective’ to get it right the first time.
To me the details of word-choice, arrangement and emphasis are very important, and I approach even composing relatively ‘dry’ company documents as if a form of creative writing – the words should ‘dance’ on the page, not fall down like lumpen corporate lead that people can barely remember 10 minutes later! Okay so people will probably still forget most of it either way, but it could be the difference between 10% and 20% retained!
Please don’t take this as some sort of diagnosis, but your entire comment sounds very Te to me. (I know discovering your type preferences has been a struggle, and I suspect any nudge from a source you follow is helpful.)
A
Right it is, Te is my judging function and is my auxiliary. I had Fi on the brain and was expressing my last thought from the podcast via Te or rather my thoughts were trailing down a rabbit hole. Good catch! Your Ti is well refined, based on your Ne input, I respect how much more experience you have than I do in typology.
Being and INTJ, my judging function is Fi it can be more authentic then moral per se. I like being who I am. One of things I had to get over was allowing people to shame me for being authentic. If I’m a weirdo I’m a weirdo, I don’t care so much what other’s think as long as I’m not breaking any laws I’m OK with that.
For those that don’t know your judging function is the co-pilot in the car model or your auxillary function.
