Hypothesis about Ti vs. Te writing styles

[nanook]

i am just not working with definitions (like memorized formulars that i can recall), so i cant deal with such questions. i am writing from a flow of inspirations. i can not think of anything to add for further clarification. i will certainly come up with further examples, that portray the patterns (i mean, later in my life....). i believe, inspiration is mostly the other way round for me: examples make patterns emerge. i dont create examples from forumlas/deffinitions. but patterns purify given examples. patterns are like significants to exemplary memories, but this is a weak connection. patterns are significants to creativity (like inventing memories). but i cant force it.

I see. Well, then continue on, good sir. I'll respond later (or not, if I forget) when one, I'm less tired, and two, I understand your position more.

I wish I could write with more Te. I'm a slave to Ti. I love reading the writing of ENTJ's in particular.

The most common reaction I get to my writing is, gee whiz, each paragraph could be an article in itself -- and then it just... ends?

Oh yeah, I say. I hit my word limit.

Yep, my lack of Te is probably the reason why I'm so reserved; why bother saying something if it won't be understood? If I feel it's worth the time/effort, I can spend up to 30 minutes writing a few paragraphs, which is absolutely necessary to make it cohesive and understandable.

Yes, they're excellent communicators, which is their most intimidating aspect, imo; Their exceptional Te shames me - makes me even more self conscious of my wacky Ti.

Is it possible to have both, then? Everything I write, just about, is technical, precise, and to the point. Very list-like. However, some of the things I write can only be understood by either myself, or someone who uses (or understands) my terminology.

Sounds like both, to me.

 

[Totenkindly]

It seems like the Te factual writing style resembles essay form: Thesis, Supporting evidence, Conclusion, all organized into one tight package.

But Ti reads more like a chapter in a Math or Science book: Factoid, example, Hypothesis, Theorem, Corollary...not particularly leading anywhere, but a bunch of information in chunks that you can basically take in any order.

I know it was clear to me when I was studying religious apologetics.

• Te, yes -- very much a tight little package, with focus on details.
• Ti -- a more conceptual argument, with less emphasis on specific details, it works in mental algebra rather than hard math. The logic connections/arguments occur between the conceptual points, not the hard detail.

No wonder why I have an extremely difficult time writing papers. My NiTi go overboard.

You're saying you get lost in the NiTi gritty?

You're saying you get lost in the NiTi gritty?

Yes I am. It's like an epic battle.
