I’m very far behind on the podcast and just started listening to this series. About 10 min in and I gotta say, Joel, that your description of self awareness and what it mean to you regarding other people not being self aware, and the consequences for you, and the reason others self awareness is a criteria for you, strikes me as having to do with Enneagram type. It screams social 6.
Introverted Thinking (Accuracy) disassociates from the self, so it has an advantage in certain aspects of self-awareness. It can receive what others would consider painful feedback or self-assessment without getting triggered as easily. That said, it’s not the function to assess how things are making us feel, so us xxTP types can sometimes be painfully unaware of how we’re being impacted by things emotionally until they sneak up on us.
Thanks for the comment!

Humility feels like a real marker of maturity for me— “observing the paradoxes within” as Antonia just said in the podcast— as well as knowing one’s own tics: your personal strengths and weaknesses in outer and inner worlds. I’m a big believer in taking responsibility for oneself (huge), but I’m an INFJ and through training, I feel this urgency to help. So the caveat is “*and* responsibility for oneself only,” as through hard lessons I’ve discovered that people need to learn their own lessons. So as a part of maturity, the equanimity to allow others space to grow and learn without applying judgment (or work on decreasing levels of it, anyway)— AND while still keeping self safe (!)] It’s a lot.
