I am going to reply to this again. This comment helped me so much to grasp introverted my FI is so much easier to see why it narrows human emotional situations down into a clear you should have done that to stop them being upset for example. Brilliant.
I relate to the Sensation stuff he talked about – in the past few years I’ve gotten into the habit of walking places as much as I can. It’s a chance to get some time with my thoughts, while enjoying the outside world
On the surface, I don’t think ISFJs and INFJs are that similar.
And, yes, Si and Ni concern themselves with different information.
But I was referring to the internal structure of the functions, not their appearance from the outside.
A lot of people have trouble envisioning what Ni is like, and if I had to explain to someone what its like have Ni as a dominant function, I’d say exactly what I said above; just in the same way Si has a scrapbook of past images which it is constantly comparing current experience to, Ni has a scrapbook of universal ideas which it is constantly comparing current experience to.
If you can envision what having Si is like, you can envision what having Ni is like, except its not memories you’re accessing; Its like having a flashback to a previous idea you once identified.
Do you know thinking about it when i do something i can have one way of doing something and by the end of thinking i have a million ways so maybe INFJs and INFPs work the opposite. Well obviously they do but i needed to get it fixed in my head how the description is being formulated. My INFJ brother never asks the questions i ask them and then he thinks and will answer he is easily the smarter one in the normal factual basis.
I struggle to believe anything everything is possible.
So the question is why each person chooses what is most important to them. Why does a 21 month old baby remember months before and places objects everything and then when your 4 or even 3 remember nothing of there past. Has your cognitive function stack been set over 3 years or are you born like that.
