@N Y I’m currently on the phone with my lead Blast, Play last best friend- an ENFJ. She’s the absolute best and her Blast isn’t overwhelming. (She’s currently blasting to me about clothes.) The other two closest people in my life are a lead Blast INTJ and ESTJ. I’m a lead Consume, Blast last, so I find it interesting that I congregate with Blasters. I’m sometimes tempted to judge the function (it’s not my responsibility, and can’t people just Consume once in a while???) but then I remember I know lovely people who use it, and who use it without suffocating their listeners. There are extrovert Blasters who have my absolute love and adoration 💞

As a Ti dom, I found it interesting to see Dave & Shan, double Te, trying to work this stuff out. Without intentionally been patronising, I think they were adorable, lol. You can see they are logical and are concentrating on the reasons for things, but it does drain them and use up all their willpower to focus on ONE concept in great detail and depth. Interesting. Great vid as always.

[@kabelmovies]

It sounds like two different survival tactics. Sensory tries to by good at Acting (doing the thing right now) Intuition tries to be good at Predicting (guessing the future). One want to be good at solving problems, another want to be good at avoiding problems. when you Act, you get your feedback immediately, but when you Predict your feedback is push back into future, until some other things takes place. Maybe this delay in feedback builds up this frustration / impatience ?

[@aubreys1675]

Solving problems vs avoiding problems. Yes. 100%!

[@quinndepatten4442]

Oh god. Now I see it. That's why I hate waiting so much. I set up all this dumb stuff in the future then I have to fucking wait for it. I just want to smash it with my Se hammer, see reality change and get it over with. Anyways, well put. That is an interesting connection between the more "feminine" intuition follows the more "feminine" feeling function in spotting problems/inaction.

[@aprilhelm518]

I don't know if sensing is acting though. Maybe it is observing and acting at different times. :/ I think of intuition as being focused on unreal things (concepts, possibilities, etc.) that can't be proven (maybe), whereas sensing is focused on real, provable, concrete reality. The past and the present are both set in stone because they either already happened or are currently happening right now, but the future and possibilities both aren't. When it comes to various problems I see people bring up, my thought is always... okay, so what is the plan of attack? Like in science class, they say IF a certain meteor struck Earth, all this reaction would happen. Me: Okay? What is there for me to do about that right now?

[@kabelmovies]

@@aprilhelm518 Hi and thanks for replaing. I never said that Sensing is Acting. I said that, for Sensing, immediate Acting is preferable way to solve problems, that's all. Sensing definitely is not Acting. Sensing is Sensing.

[@aprilhelm518]

@@kabelmovies Kind of sounds the same, imo. I've heard the stereotype, though, about Ni NOT acting, and I don't really believe it. But as for focus, of course sensing types, being concrete, don't plan THAT far into future or possibilities.

[@Vegetoyesh]

​@@gooddaygene8355 Dominant Ti/Ne user here. I am new to the Objective Personality channel, so excuse me if I point out obvious take aways from the way Dave and Shan talk. Having that out of the way. . . I found the excercise to be greatly insightful. What intruigued me wasn't the ideas themselves. But how they reached that conclusion as a collective (Dave and Shan). For example, it was sufficient for me to just read the dictionary reference on Merriam-Webster for the word Intuition. Intuition noun a: the power or faculty of attaining to direct knowledge or cognition without evident rational thought and inference b: immediate apprehension or cognition c: knowledge or conviction gained by intuition Here, as a Ti user I can already eliminate option (c) of the defnition since they are vague/misleading and hard to understand and literally uses the word to define itself which creates a loop (word-ception if you will). The 'b' part is something that wasn't mentioned very much in the video. If you'd like an example: * Imagine you come home from work after a long hard day. All you want to do is take off your shoes & socks and relax on the sofa. * You get home, excited for the 'to be' chill session. * You open the door and remove your shoes & socks and feel the cool hardwood floors or the warm carpets of the house. * You hold your shoes in your hands to put them on the shoe rack, since that's where they belong and you like to keep clean, like they say, "out of sight out of mind". * Only to find.. That the shoe rack is missing. * Now you remember that your wife/mom/roommate had to dismantle it in preparation to make your move to a new apartment easier. * You curse the inconvenience, and find a different place to keep your shoes. Your mental peace destroyed. . . What Dave and Shan were talking about in the video is 'a'. Although the definition is very obvious to me. To explain it to someone else is a different matter. In the video, they brought out good examples of how to explain such a concept to a sensory person. All the while Dave had to fight his inner monologue during his speech, as much as he tried, he couldn't stop his inner monologue of 'Why'. The 'why' tries to connect the sensory information of the 'now' with something that has happened before. It tries to get the patterns in order. So that the probability of what will happen next is high in his mind. And I assume like for myself, it brings him some comfort knowing how things will proceed. Since I'm mostly a perceiving type of person, I am also excited by the future un-explored possibilities, leading to a bunch of chaos. Some Intuitive users would rather use their future prediction to ensure a sustainable stable environment. Neither approach is right or wrong. The analogy I like the most is the invisible wall, specifically the way an amoeba reaches around a rock for food. I correlate this 'pattern' (:p) with modern First Person Shooter games like Counter Strike, Call of Duty or Valorant. If you walk beyond a wall without giving it a 'second thought' (I love the term second thought). You're gonna get shot in the face. Seasoned veterans will even know where your head will be with respect to the ground and aim exaclty in that spot. You need to have the intuition to crawl/crouch or Run beyond that wall to avoid your impending doom. For FPS games the intuition would be as follows: 1) Hey there is opening to walk across 2) This reminds me of when I walked across 'that other' opening and got shot in the face 3) How can I get past this hurdle, that may or may not be the same fate? (My dominant Ti at work here) 4) I got it, I can try the following: a) Crawl b) Run c) Wait for another person to go first and see if he/she gets shot d) Turn back e) Try peaking or throwing a flash bomb/grenade f) Think about: Is there a different/safer way to reach the same goal/location? (Ti-ception) All this to avoid the previous negative pattern of getting shot. 5) Then, my intuition tries to make patterns with the above options until I get Si/Se proof that one of them is better. 6) In the absence of further information to feed my Ti/Ne. I would try the above options in the order of preference of how I feel about them. I think the amoeba example serves well for all the non-gamer peeps out there as well :)

[@gooddaygene8355]

@@caveatlector2022 if Dave ignores "his" Te which is really our Ti reasons aggregating into Te directed at them then no. He will double down on his Ti/Fi and call that jumping. Which in a way IS apt. If Shan ignores her Ni and her hyper Ne/Se mind just runs the info we send her way through whatever Te filter of "irrelevant / relevant" information (no idea what it is "set to" in the moment) then no, they won't. They would NT argue about the concepts they ironically hold Fi dear and use circular logic to refute our observation in order to maintain the integrity of their NT concepts because to change that would be SF painful for them. Pain "exists" in the 2nd and 3rd function because we kind of don't realize how much we lean on the 6th and 8th. Or, another way, the imbalance in our 2nd and 4th is not with 1 and 2 but actually 6th and 8th. All functions may be balanced so they can work as a complete "process."

Ni is similar. Based on gathered information (memories, anecdotes, things I've learned), what is the most likely scenario? The information we use isn't abstract but basic data points.

In so doing the insect would bump into the flower’s sticky pollen, enabling its transfer from one flower to another."

[@alonsoproductions444]

The way I see it, having a good, accurate intuition is like being a master of context clues. Kind of like being able to fit the remaining pieces of the jigsaw puzzle with only a few pieces there. The better and more accurate your intuition is, the less pieces you need to see the whole picture and complete the puzzle. Obviously nobody’s always right but personally I find a lot of the times my intuition to be accurate. Of course the only way to build that intuition is to do the sensory work and find out and learn through life, or learn it through someone who has, and just reading books and online discussions about things will build your intuition. But don’t forget the sensory 😆

[@exponent2316]

Basically Intuition is another way of gathering information in order to survive. We have sensing through our five senses but it's not sufficient enough for survival because we can't have all of the information all at once. So in order to survive your brain has to find a way to create more sensory in order to make decisions. Let's say I'm driving and I pull out my map to see where I'm going. Let's say that at some point I spill coffee all over half of the map rendering that half unuseable. I need a full map in order to get to my destination but since reality no longer has a full map I have to turn the map I have into a full map and follow that map to my destination. But since this is only a full map that my brain created, whether I get to my destination or not is up in the air. Basically intuition is your ability to create more sensory to go off of when you don't have enough to make a choice.

N is about the human tendency of language I believe. Because saying all leaves are in the category "leaf" is intuition too, because their also all different. They are not the same.

If you have a tip on how to explain abstract patterns or principles to sensors, I would be sooo grateful! It's incredibly frustrating to have to come up with and walk them through 50 tangible examples, before they start seeing the light. (Analogy alert) Imagine trying to solve a 5000 piece puzzle with someone who has to measure out the exact dimensions of every single piece, before they can try putting a few together, instead of looking at the whole picture first. Is it about fear of zooming out, can it be helped? Cheers!

[@nattifrutti]

As an Se dom: Your analogies seem waaaaaaay too complicated. Even this one. I couldn't even read it all. I didn't have the patience to do it nor would it have helped me understand you better since you relate it to something - a a sensory thing - have seen, experienced or . Not everyone puzzles and therefore won't get connected with you as quickly. If you try to see what their interests are or what they already understand, they will follow you easier (for example if you know play football and are already familiar with that and they don't have to use any brainpower to try to understand your analogy and where its coming from, relate it to that and it's structures/rules etc. if possible). On top of that, I see that I have to use more brainpower to try to understand your analogy, and it isn't simple and quick. You shouldn't have to use brainpower to understand the analogy. You should use brainpower to understand the subject, and the analogy is just a very, very, very easy dumbed down similar thing that you can then relate to the subject you are trying to understand. It should be used sort of as a stepping-stone, not as its own subject. And another tip: try to make analogies that are as simple (and easy) as those you would use to explain things to a child. No joke.

Interestingly, Chandler(who’s parents are shown to be very less involved in his life and are divorcing) and Phoebe who is shown as an orphan are both Entp and enfp . What i mean is, chandler and phoebe didnt ‘GET’ the worldview already built by their ‘families’ like Ross monica rachel joey got. So their’s not this need to ‘desperately’ become what is asked. Chandler and phoebe had to slowly built on their own ‘worldviews’ bcoz there was noone to ‘give it to them’ so that they could later built on that ‘downloaded worldview’ with their intuition and collect patterns around THAT downloaded worldview. What i mean is no wonder S types are most common and especially in Asian countires even now bcoz of the ‘control factor’ of the families and therefore S types have a ‘downloaded worldview’ around which they have to use their intuition. Ie S types dont know tht a worldview exists outside the one that’s downloaded since beginning. Howver, for intuitives their worldview is more’ original’ than downloaded and therefore is able to see things which a S type wouldnt be able to see bcoz of their ‘limitation to that box’ .

It's abstraction and comparison vs exaction and constrast. (Yes, I made exaction up and now I like it).

So when do we get to see an analysis of one of Dave’s chess games lol

[@justinwhite2725]

4:59 it fascinates me how they miss the point when they talk about these things. They need an aware Ne saviour on their team. I don't 'look for' 'this reminds me of' moments. I notice them and they fit into the web of other things I've noticed and then I go 'oh hey, a pattern, these things lead the same direction' and then I follow that direction and find other things that 'fit'. Einstein looked at a clock on a train station and that started a train of thought that lead to the theory of relativity.

Intuition is utilizing patterns and past experience To relay to current circumstances.

[@writerducky2589]

Not lead intuitive, most likely double observer, and the "reminds me of" is something I’ve caught myself doing consistently, to the point where I wondered if not other people were getting annoyed I said it so much. Tend to use it as a segue when I’m not sure the next thing I want to say is still on topic. Got it mixed up along the way, thinking for a while it was an Si thing, even though I’d already watched this video before 😅

[@florence9701-n9v]

In case of the absence of sensory data, and the because it's faster than wait for it... both make sense!

[@naderabozied]

Synthesis of myth or archetypal stories - systems thinking - abstraction - geometry - algebra... Etc ... Just N speculation of why N would be useful In an evoulotionary prespective- For passing on information to other generations in a way that could be used in different situations... Like a distillation of many S experiences into one grand narrative.... Useful for coming up with laws and general guidelines... the "culture" of the tribe

Ni is for prediction. Ne is for innovation.

[@chemquests]

My Ne dom needs to know how a fact fits into my network of concepts. The whole system of relationships has to be updated if a new perception introduces a truly new concept, so first question is whether it’s “new” or just analogous to a concept I’ve already incorporated. --ENTP

[@oska_lll]

basically it was really simple when they talking about it in the tutorial video I took it in and just made two words for it, sensory is facts and intuition is imagination you have to use facts to put the imaginations together and you have to use imagination to put the facts together

[@Eta_Carinae__]

So TL;DR: intuition is our ability to infer causes, and we infer causes because it's advantageous to survival. Donno if you have to pull a David Hume and equivocate pattern recognition with causation; one might infer causes because there are Causes (i.e. necessary connections between things). Afaik causation is kinda hotly contested in philosophy right now - there's a kind of resurgence of direct realism atm, so as far as consensus might be concerned, it's either or.

This reminds me of shut up a second, the tale of two typists 🤗

[@gdtownshende]

Nothing quite like saying, "That reminds me of…" and getting blank stares as a response. And I'm like, "Oh, great. Do I really have to explain this?! Just kill me already. ~massive sigh~ We could have moved on to the next point 10 seconds ago."

[@BlueHazyDreams]

I'm not sure whether I'm sensory or intuition dominant, but it seems clear from this video that my observers are in the middle as I can switch between the two more easily and while I lean toward saying I'm intuition dominant, I don't seem to neglect the sensory to the same degree as Dave seems to. I can make arguments for each, but the general structure of my type being more obvious is still useful. I will laugh if I end up having the same OP type as my Myers Briggs which it's still possible.

When ur 50 you are able to use both pretty well... you develop over time if self aware.

I love Shan’s explanation, but I wish I would have gotten to hear Dave’s explanations as well.

[@sori6196]

would you say that intuition is doing something more creative by having to make a leap beyond what already exists?

[@justinwhite2725]

6:33 such a biased angle lol. If you can't see the pattern then you need to be lead through it step by step. I remember when I first learned Meyers Briggs, the facilitator for the career planning workshop challenged us to guess her type. On the last day I said 'You are ESTJ' and she asked - 'what makes you say that? Because you are right.' And I was like 'uh... Because I just worked it out in the last 10 seconds because of things I've seen this whole time?' I tried to spell it out but it was mostly vsuge if-then statements. (I'm INTP)

[@ShoelessMeg]

I'm as sure as I can be that my husband is an S. (Masculine S, for that matter. If something bugs him he either smashes or throws it.) He's either ESFJ or an ENFJ jumper. But I'm leaning towards Si because, despite the fact that he makes guesses all the time, and he constantly talks about past experiences in an "I've seen this before" sort of way, he's not making his guesses, or referencing past experiences in a patterny, more global sort of way. Everything is discrete and specific. He'll guess that someone won't last long at the job because of a very specific, concrete singular past experience in which a guy (who may or may not be like the guy in question....) didn't last long at his job. He constantly brings up the same specific past experiences to illustrate and give credence to present day opinions/guesses. ... it's almost like a parody of what N's are doing. I wanted to run this past ya'll and see if you think I'm reading this right. It's not the "I've seen this before" so much as "I've had enough past experiences that I've noticed a pattern" that N's are doing (even if what they're saying is just "I've seen this before." ... right?

[@austinbodiford6360]

Totally had this situation of "prove it" sensory with my house mate. He is a heavy Ne user. Makes big observations. Me (most likely sensory dom) beats him over the head to explain himself. His response: "I don't know how to explain it, I'm just seeing this." I think make guesses for him to see if something sticks. It bugs me cause I am seeing somewhat the same sort of patterns but when the sensory is absent I try and find it! 😅

[@JayLeePoe]

Let's get Jungian. More. Think about the cultures and even more Intuitive, their stories, their versions of _This is what it feels like. . ._ There are countless expressions of attempting to understand a Vision beyond vision. And I would think many don't like the term Imagination but it is essentially true. The imagination simply has to start aligning itself with known realities and proving itself. And just like other disciplines, once you "master" this alignment then you can begin to disassemble it once again. You can begin to intuit more things beyond what has normally seen and that. . . that too has many, many stories. The Eye of Maat. Jung also suggests that _Seeing Beyond_ what it is that we would prefer to _See_ is how we are best. And how we are frightened. edit: and maybe it begins with Uncertainty? Maybe it begins with that unsettling discomfort of eating a failure or mistake, which ultimate will not matter because... you will it away. Willpower itself is only imagination manifest. As a man once said, _"Do you think Gods' Will should be carried out by cowards?!"_

[@dreamluvr1600]

im talking about myself too here when i say this but intuitives have a way of sounding so pretentious when they talk but you can’t blame us/it’s justified because what we’re saying is essentially just spewing out from us like a faucet and not at all premeditated or fabricated. i like ur comment and the point u made

So N discovers new scientific theories, and S sorts through the theories developing the proofs.

Isn't "prove it in the sensory" just Te? Maybe "do it in/with the sensory." Somehow engage what's actually there, right now

@@handreieiacasa It’s going well for me!! And the book has been going… well, as much as anything can “go” with an ENFP. Not very far, though it says something that I’m still wildly interested in it after ten months of brainstorming and idealizing and constant digging for more information. It’s fallen into my Fi box and it won’t leave anytime soon. Blast last is a pain when it comes to bringing ideas to life, especially when all I want is for them to look perfect on paper, but I’m slowly overcoming that. It’s not easy. But in the meantime, I’m still trying to take in every bit of typology info I can, because I love learning more about these characters and about humanity in general. :))
