That's good advice I think, especially for shy ISJs. Easier ways to convince him to try new things are to try them together (with you), whatever it is, and to try to take it slowly, not rush into something all at once.Hrm. Well, it takes SJ's a while to get used to things that are new to them, so you'll have to ease him into new things slowly.
The closer you two are, the more likely he is to let himself be put in uneasy new situations, but the more drastic the change, the more he's only doing it because you're there with him. (Probably obvious.) In times like that, he's just putting a lot of faith into you, hoping that you know what you're doing.
