Alexander*, How to Cope with (2) | Sensing and Intuitive Personalities

Test your personality tendencies

Regarding the following five situations, please choose the one you are most accustomed to (yes or not)

The answers on the left side of the above five questions (such as "Yes" for the first, second, and third questions, "OK" for the fourth and fifth questions...) belong to those with a real-feeling personality, and those who choose the answer on the right belong to those with an intuitive personality. Therefore, according to the results of the answers, you can see your personality tendencies. For example, most of the 5 questions choose the left answer, indicating that they belong to the real-sense personality; and those with more left-hand answers (such as 5 more than 4) indicate that the real-sense personality is more obvious. Conversely, intuitive personalities multiple-choose the answer on the right.

According to the above rules, you can understand your own personality tendencies and their apparent degree.

Sources of pressure and how to relieve it

Real-sensing people understand the environment and collect information through the five senses (sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch), and like to have specific directions and clear instructions when doing things. Analyzing problems is accustomed to attention to detail and thorough research, so some tasks that are not clear and that need to be performed will be questioned. Due to the focus on the present and the present, there will be pressure on planning to look forward to the future.

The pressure relief method of the real-sense type is hands-on, although the information is unclear, and the concept of the future is also very vague. First, complete a draft or prototype, and then discuss with relevant personnel, which can solve the problem or clarify the future. On the other hand, "hands-on" can relieve stress, and even become a certified Lego master (currently the 11th in the world). Nathan was born in Oregon, USA. He loves Lego blocks since he was a child. For him, building blocks are a good comfort. pressure method. He was originally a high-paid lawyer, but based on his love for building blocks, he chose to give up being a lawyer and devote himself to the creation of building blocks!

Intuitives are accustomed to obtaining information through relevance and possibility, and their thinking is vague and general or imaginative. Less concerned about reality, focusing on the possibility and general direction of future development, often feel pressure to deal with practical problems or discuss details.

Intuitive people’s stress relief method is based on imagination. We are all facing a highly competitive business environment and an uncertain future. Imagination is the driving force for innovation, such as the global e-commerce leader Amazon and social platform Facebook (now renamed Meta) They are all going beyond the concept at the time and launching products that are more in line with customer needs (cheaper and more abundant products - Amazon, more convenient connections between people - Facebook).

Suggest

Although the real sense and the intuition type have no way of collecting and interpreting information, it is as if the two ends of the scale do not intersect. In a diverse team, we can combine their advantages and solve different pressures.

When finding a problem or designing a new product, first use the information at hand to use unlimited imagination to find out the possible cause of the problem or the function of the product that meets the customer's needs. Then apply the real-feeling characteristics to verify the real cause of the problem, design the solution or think about the details to implement the product function. .
