can you do a healthy/unhealthy post for Ne and Si in all positions?
Healthy Ne-dom: Seeks continuous inspiration, able to notice and pick out the best ideas, have many thoughts and pursue ideas to their intellectual conclusion. Optimistic view of people and seeking the best in them, wanting them to achieve their idealized potential, has a sense of hope and intellectual openness. Good at visualizing and enacting positive trends for potential change, often admirable in their creativity and optimism. Idealism.
Unhealthy Ne-dom: Disconnected from reality, unable to learn from their mistakes, flippant in their relationships (prone to dumping people when they get bored or not easily connecting to them on a deeper level), abandoning tasks half-finished, continual longing for âbetterâ things which causes them not to enjoy the moment or value those around them. Wastes time with a lack of focus and chases immediate mental stimulation, often disorganized, careless, and impatient.
Healthy Ne-aux: Gathers interesting ideas, considers many possibilities, which counter-acts their harsh logical/ethical judgments and expands their worldview. Intellectual interests allow them to widen their understanding of reality and how it works, focus on envisioning a better self and seeking ways to make it happen. Willing and able to explore different possibilities and ideas, good at imagining the best of people and of oneself.
Unhealthy Ne-aux: Scattered and impulsive thinking which lacks precision, does not know which ideas carry more intuitive potential, impractical in their decisions or detached from reality. Can be passive, apathetic, and unmotivated to do more than just imagine / idealize their thoughts, chases newness out of boredom but abandons projects before completion, leading to habitual lack of follow-through, overly idealistic or ignorant of sensing danger, cannot focus, skim-reads, refuses to learn in depth.
Healthy Ne-tert: Open to new ideas and possibilities, and ways of doing things that are outside what they are accustomed to / the norm. Flexible and open-minded, sees multiple positive ways to tackle problems and use their creativity to foster improvement in the workplace/their creativity/personal life, focuses on the future and how to shape it with optimism, takes an interest in personal growth and self-improvement / development.
Unhealthy Ne-tert: Thinks oneself more intellectual than one actually is, does not know how to choose between good and bad ideas, may fantasize about other people and/or trust their âinsightsâ (which may or may not be right); low levels of idealism (either being too idealistic and trusting, or too negative about the future and other peopleâs motives); may leap on new ideas without caution and make mistakes in judgment, prone to chaotic but shallow thinking, and unable to focus / prioritize or accomplish what they set out to do, due to boredom.
Healthy Inferior Ne: Interest in self-improvement and seeking out new ideas, exposes self to interesting new concepts and knowledge, open to change and willing to look upon the future with optimism. Can approach and tackle difficult projects with multiple ideas, open to brainstorming and feedback from others.
Unhealthy Inferior Ne: Zero interest in self-improvement or new ideas, finds all abstract concepts impractical and/or blindly believes any intuitive concept or philosophy that comes along (due to low discernment), tends to be idealistic and/or impulsive under stress, or experience deep unease / fear of the future, overall perspective on the future is one of negativity and uncertainty â to cope with this, they never think about or want to discuss in depth the future.
Healthy Si-dom: Excellent at retaining and storing details, and storing information on past experiences, encounters, and beliefs. Capable of establishing and maintaining a sense of inner security and stability, quick to notice sensory inconsistencies and contrasts when doing mental comparisons. Careful attentiveness to detail allows them to build up an incredible knowledge base, which they access when encountering new situations. Familiarity and comfort with details and use of routines to accomplish much in a day. Patient, reliable, and sensory-imaginative. (Often fills their stories with rich details, btw.)
Unhealthy Si-dom:Rigid and legalistic in their worldviews, prone to dismissing anything that does not match their experiences and outright rejecting new concepts, ideas, or experiences that threaten their sense of internal balance. Intense loathing for others who cannot match their level of competent detail-driven sensory awareness; persnickety about personal tastes. Prone to living in their own private world / detached from the outer world, may indulge fantasies or outright denial of reality if it does not match their desired worldview.
Healthy Si-aux: Uses factual or concrete details to avoid over-generalizing, good at sensory comparisons and noting inconsistencies. Collects details and information in order to build a thorough knowledge of a topic, excellent ability to prioritize and complete tasks with a richness of sensory depth and warmth to them. Good memory and ability to store information and recite it accurately.
Unhealthy Si-aux:Narrow-minded or rigid, relies on personal experience only in rejecting othersâ experiences and/or ideas (poor Si and poor Ne development); careless with details or learning things completely. Makes poor comparisons due to a lack of nuance or awareness, poor prioritization of tasks, too much focus on being âinâ the world and not enough on self-care. Refuses to shift from their routine, cannot adapt to new and changing situations, nitpicks things.
Healthy Si-tert:Able to counter their idealism or impractical ideas with practicality, and to learn to focus and attend to their physical needs. Aware of their bodily needs and limitations, comfortable with routine in getting things done, attentiveness to necessary details, able to learn things carefully and in depth so as to be accurate in their intuitive grasp of knowledge.
Unhealthy Si-tert: Gets stuck in the past or in unproductive thoughts, routines and behaviors. Stubborn about their personal experiences, prone to feeling âstuckâ and helpless, unproductive, or unmotivated; poor with details and dismissive of finishing things, careless in learning things (skim-reads). Defines self by their former experiences and has a negative impression of the future. Cannot shift their ideas and only notices details that confirms their negative ideas.
Healthy Inferior Si: Able to focus on and learn in detail. Takes care of oneâs physical, mental, and spiritual health by eating, exercising, and getting enough sleep. Can focus on and incorporate accurate details into creative projects, and commit to follow through. Has a sense of longing for stability, safety, and the mental focus to finish difficult tasks (often by using Ne to find ways to put a unique or interesting spin on the material). Recognizes oneâs weak sensing, and does not assert details unless certain of their truth / validity.
Unhealthy Inferior Si: Messy, sloppy work, cares nothing for details, finds a lot of jobs âboringâ and/or abandons them due to little interest in âhard work.â Neglects physical health (not eating, sleeping, or refilling their mental tank with time for reflection and self-pampering). Over-generalizes and uses bullshit to cover up their total lack of being able to remember specific details. Poor sense of self, prone to mis-remembering events / people / details and being stubborn or resistant to change their minds about it. Can be weirdly nostalgic and hate change in certain areas, prone to anal behavior under stress.
PS: I HIGHLY recommend Ne-doms keep diaries about the people in their life, in order to re-establish their initial perceptions / the facts about encounters, because inferior Si is so bad at retaining them, and Ne so prone to inserting idealism and/or putting a non-realistic slant on them, itâs easy to dismiss bad behavior when you put some distance between you and the incident, or to over-exaggerate / misinterpret it through the lens of a disenchanted Ne. A lot of Ne-doms can get stuck in terrible relationships due to their idealism â or having totally unrealistic, Ne-driven delusions about their friends.
