i see christian bale as a perfect example of how i understand istp 3w4 sx/sp. same with the other two.
i think we see e3 differently, i think of focusing on it within the heart triad. driven by shame. in that way, the achievement, the specific form of achievement, is less important than the way that achievement creates the opposite of shame. trying to win love by others, force them to love you.
i don't see any Te in those people you mention. one example of a possible 3 could be kobe bryant, who i can see as istp 3 or istj. if he's an istj, however, he could very easily be a 6. athletes are more often stps because of Se, the ability to be in the moment, spatial awareness, sense of physical space and territoriality, etc. Ti is the ultimate in-game strategizer. the SiTe people are more dilligent practicers, they master a skill and over-prepare. they rely on perfect methods/form to become excellent at something specific.
as far as etjs, they want to do something. they have energy to make something happen. they either want to take charge (boss, e8) or fix problems (e1). i'm yet to meet e6, e7, or other entj types. their motivation is less focused on what they think will make them happy, whole, complete. if they are running from anything, i see it as e6 anxiety/fear, e1w2 imperfection/shame, or e8 Fi inferior vulnerability and just projecting it outward trying to control the world around them before it controls them.
