Question for the Intuitives... how do you explain intuition to the predominantly Observant?
By its behavior.Question for the Intuitives... how do you explain intuition to the predominantly Observant?
I'd also like to know how Sensing types explain to iNtuitives how they think. I've seen a lot of explanatory threads on the other letters, but not the second one as much.
It'd be cool to see someone take that impressive task on. I would, but I'm too much of a n00b and I'd rather leave it to an expert.
Okay if we're going to go with explaining S versus N...
Intuition is a framework of all experiences... errm... experienced (yeah my vocablary iz gud). It's a database of memories. New information is analysed with reference to this. It provides context for everything. Hence N is more about how it connects to everything else than what it is as a singular entity.
That is a good example of the theory. There is of course the aftermath of all that intuition though. Each piece of information has links not necessarily in context to the situation which the piece of information was raised in. If you ever notice an intuitive person going off on a tangent, it's usually due to their intuitive matrix (the database of information and links inside their heads) following one of the links which they've made which is not related to the rest of the context of the subject being discussed but is related to the context which their matrix has created.Good effort. +1
But also, reference ZiL's post in the extrospection thread.
