Here's a personal example. I often go online to do something of import like school work and suddenly a link catches my eye. An uncontrollable fascination takes hold of me and I just have to find out what the page the link would take me to says. As a result, I click the link, abandoning my work and might click through a series of other links, each one commanding this similar, uncontrollable fascination. In each case, I see a promise in the link, a promise of shiny, new information to entertain in my head with an assortment of other things. For such promises I carry a voracious appetite that isn't satiated until the need to do work becomes urgent.
Ah I see. So we have "voracious appetite" for different things then
(I liked that expression)
If I procrastinate I just do something I feel like doing (instead of what I'm supposed to do) but not jump around like that.
It would be unnatural for you to carefully and patiently plan something out, this is Ni Te territory. Instead it would be natural for you to get a basic structure and jump in head first.
No I don't spend that much time planning things out, I do often go ahead with a basic structure in my mind or sometimes not even that. If not even that, then I only get the idea of the structure while doing the thing.
Still sometimes it can take a bit of time to even get the basic structure (when it's a really complex thing), though I'm generally good with this.
I can be competitive for limited durations.
Until you start feeling there is something better?
Kinda, fighting too much is too draining, we'd rather rest if it gets too tough or find something more appealing. The point is, there's always something better to do than what we're doing.
If it gets tough it just gets more interesting for me, though it can certainly feel frustrating too if I can't go on fast enough because something feels like it's "persistently" blocking my way ahead, but it's just impatience pretty much
To the second sentence here, about something else being always better and jumping to it instead, that just wouldn't feel satisfying to me, no.
You just seemed rather playful and not so overtly masculine. There was a lightness that I don't see too often in SLEs but have seen in ILEs.
Did you assume I was a guy?
I have a strong 7 fix or wing btw. Playfulness maybe comes from there
Oh yes, it takes effort for 2D Ne to become adequate and even then you might slip up. It's just not so useless as 1D Fi.
Um yeah I guess it's not as useless..
Well, I would do it. When I get around to it. I keep thinking i'm going to do a video for typing purposes (mostly Enneagram and instinctual variants), but it could be used for this too- but I'm scared, and I feel like it has to be perfect. Which is silly. That probably says something about me. Everything has to be perfect. I want to talk about the right things and answer the questions with the right information and have answers ready so I don't waste people's time.
There is no standard according to which you would/should be "perfect". I don't know if that helps heh... I'm pretty sure though that nobody will feel like it's a waste of time, so do go ahead with the video
