    In MBTI, each personality type has 4 functions instead of 4 letters
    [​IMG]

    The first two are the most preferred functions, the last two are the least preferred functions. The 4 functions are named as the dominant - the auxiliary - the tertiary - the inferior. Tertiary and inferior are the least preferred functions yet they are helpful to each personality type. They can motivate, enlighten to help a type develop.

    For example, an INFJ has 4 functions Ni Fe Ti Se, INFJ can use its least preferred: Ti Se, thinking about something concrete instead of feeling about something abstract Ni Fe. Such activities' content can be about car engine, electronic stuffs.

    An INFP has 4 functions Fi Ne Si Te, INFP can use Si Te, strictly follow orders and be objective instead of being creative and personal. ie: accounting, librarian

    An INTJ has 4 functions Ni Te Fi Se, INTJ can use Fi Se, feeling about smt concrete instead of thinking about smt abstract. ie: art crafts, cute handmade stuffs.

    I don't know about others but I do love using Si Fe to learn and connect with others as an INTP. It's relaxing.

    Cooking, cleaning house, planting trees, summer camping :p. The last two functions are called "the enlightening functions" :p. I see some INTPs love planting flowers, then they start learning, analyzing different flowers, finally fall back to their own preferences (Ti Ne) :p

    MBTI is a cool area of study. Pretty sure I'm an NT but also not always. Weird.
