How your last function triggers you 

I love how your example perfectly captures an aspect of inferior Se performance anxiety over being able to react in time to said squirrel.

How clear do you want it to be that you're savior intuition?-Yes. ANALOGY🤖 (beep boop)

I don't suggest working directly on your 4th function. It's something that you make a space for, not work on. Example: intj's hate doing chores, but feel good after they are done, so they need to do chores, when nothing else makes them feel good. I was going to explain it in depth, but here is the concise version. Don't take conscious control over Fi and Se, or you will be miserable. A balanced intj makes space for Fi and Se, so those functions can unpleasantly prod you to do the thing that you need to feel better (re balanced, centered and back on solid ground because you went to conceptually high) Like you were probably not feeling right, so you made this video, and now you feel better because you did one of the things that you do to feel better, even though your inner prodding to do it wasn't pleasant. It's not the thing for us, but the feeling that doing thing provides, but only in the space that we feel like it's only thing that is going to work. At bedrock we are just simple happy people aiming to live a long peaceful and fulfilling life, but it takes our conscious masterminding to pull off this feat within all of the worlds noise.

Why did the squirrel cross the road? to change its mind

The abstract squirrel. The squirrel metaphor. # Very clever Lijo. You are awesome.

I don't brake for thoughtless peo... I mean, squirrels. ~istp

Excellent story. Smart girl. Hot nerd. Treat the squirrels the same way you treat the birds. They are responsible for dodging the car.

I just love this example. It is only an intj that can make a situation out of a squirrel crossing the road. Like as entp, you just hate on habits, but the example squirrels are so Te Se i love it. Oh no if i hit a squirrel... Why is that the first thing that comes up? Entp would've probably just taken a different road by now, Ti Ne can sub in for lack of Se, but the INTJ would carefully try to not hit the squirrel, and then the best part, still hit the squirrel, and i love it! Who else should make fun of, if nothing fun happens.

Lijo…It takes me a few hours to get past any squirrel crossing the street while driving encounter. INFP 😂

Long time, no post! Good stuff!

Break the pattern. The futures not set, we have no fate but that which we make for our selves.

Oh man when you said it gets traumatized and lingers....yeah so mine lingered for months because of real trauma but also that 4th function getting butt hurt. I'm an ESTP who had to cut ties with an abusive SOB. I thought I was clever and outsmarted him-almost but not quite. Said asshole hunted me down and it took me months to not be paranoid again.

The printer rant 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hmmm, I just had to substitute squirrels for koalas....We don't have squirrels! So nice to see you!

And the answer is yes, I like squirrels. My Ne loved loves this story and is still off in some imaginary woods climbing after a squirrel, but my Ti doesn't comprehend what just happened 😂

What function hits the squirrel?

Welcome back to YT

istp here - just run over the squirrel - problem solved

I ran over a squirrel last summer by accident and I felt horrid.

I avoid roads known to be populated by "squirrels". Problem? I end up driving in the ruts. 😅

Entp me in a intj shadow, one person clearly manipulating me with his te, now i saw his clear vision somehow....just telling everyone man, when entp is bad state leave that entp alone....he would have tell u 3or 4 times even, then put u out of existance (if he would found his moral then broke u beyond repair) entp + intj --- super detective (spoiler allert) 1st function is my first function still but ti toxic and te toxic how can u handle it! Cz i had been with intj before and found the ni te access!

i wouldn't necessarily call it such a thing as 'triggers' ANYthing like 'squirrels' (of whatever metaphorical sort) but out of respect for the realities of the situation (whatever it might be). also, its not that the squirrels are traumatized (besides the emotional factor) but, out of respect for the realities of the situation - squirrels or unknowns (of ANY type). - INTJ

I’m sorry, but squirrels ARE narcissistic assholes, so I am not on team #istandwiththesquirrels. However, I still thought it was a great analogy and I enjoyed the video.

Interesting but abit confusing. i like your face and chilly vibe though know your sweet on the inside. Peace ✌️

This made me think. Are there questions that could trigger these lover functions? How can i get used such questions for job-interviews / dating / getting people know better? (Im an asshole intp, i rarely talk to people, but when i do i don't care about the person at all, but i love to know their thinking better. And i ask questions like: what is that happened to you that you are proud of from the last 5 months / What is the the common way people do misinterpret your words? / Are there any books(movies) you consider worthwhile to read(watch) again and how so? / Is there anything you want or you had been told to change about yourself that you don't want to change and a how it is better for you to not changing it? Is there anyone who did something great for you and What was that?)

So this one might be the right video for my observation. I’m an INTJ and lately I get so triggered if I find someone copying me or mimicking me - I see this everywhere and people have to remind me that they have different sources of inspiration online.I really wonder which function is affected, probably Fi?

I myself love using my Se especially around Se dominant users in social situations. It brings out a side of me that desperately needs air. I think I suppress this function because it takes an energetic toll on my Si which I pay for later and don’t even realize because it’s unconscious. A biohack that helps is to practice celibacy for 3-4 week cycles. The extra energy helps fill the Si energy gap and improves your interoception which frees the rest of your cognitve functions. Over time you can literally build a better functioning Si by building the underlying nuerological hardwarware.

I love how, if someone was to walk in while this video was playing, it would sound like a cognitive analysis of squirrels.

Lijo what does narcotics and alchohol do to your cognitive functions

I wouldnt say the problem isnt real, more like "why is this a problem in the 1st place?" "Whats the root of the problem?" "And is this problem serious or light?" At least, thats what I got most of the vid cuz saying the problem is fake is kind of like saying the problem is an illusion. Sounds more like a Se inferior way of explaining it lol. No hard feelings cuz usually "eureka" moments of solving ur inferior function issues is usually explained creatively and unorthodox...as with this squirrel analogy. There's a level of truth of the problem that while Im driving, the squirrel is indeed being a bozo blocking the way. Thats the trackable transaction and not only that, the people close to my type got relatable problems. Whether or not myself, people or things are causing the problem is a different issue. Now if u told me I was taking mushrooms and I saw a squirrel blocking the way, now I would say the problem of the squirrel is fake but the problem of taking drugs is real. Dont try this at home folks. You can just take another route or actually try to talk to it 😂. But I hope u get my point here.

I was thinking you might be an INTJ and looked over to a recommended video and you are! I'm surprised since Ni is my blind pot and I'm terrible at guessing. But you seemed to have The and also be very "studious". I think my nephew is INTJ, he's very smart and also bossy but he'll get better at that I'm sure.

Hey LiJo Trying to book on Snugg, but it isnt loading any availability

Lijo: I have what is an interesting question for me, and as I know the INTJ mind, regardless of how little (or much) you might know about the subject directly, I know you'll want to give this a try, so here goes. First a little background. I'm mostly INTJ, so that's how I know our minds, but I had only one real GF in my life, and as I'm much older than you now, I still don't have the answer to this question. I suspect introverted girls, especially those on camera frequently, know much more about boys, than I did about girls for most of my life. Also, this GF and I got along fantastically, well beyond what the mind could imagine, but I only knew her a couple of months before she had to leave. I was extremely averse to parties, having only gone to one in my youth, which went badly. My question is if you could foresee as distinctly possible, that a guy that didn't go to parties at all, could have been a regular partier, if, and only if, he got along with another introverted girl as fantastically as we did and we might go to parties. I'm not entirely sure she was an introvert, but then I can'\t recall her ever talking to anybody else but me either (I was her boss). What I'm basically saying, is I think she made me quite a bit more extroverted than usual, but it also sounds sort of odd to say that we were in a zone together it seems, where despite lots of other people being around on the job, they almost didn't exist, and like it always seemed to happen (with one notable exception) when a girl and I were interested in each other, even if just making goo-goo eyes, nobody else noticed it. There's no way the entire crew didn't notice me and her being very friendly with each other, but it sure seemed like nobody knew. What say you? Again, do you think two introverts could go to parties regularly? I have had some introvert guy friends, and NO WAY we would go to parties together, unless we were the only ones there, but throwing a female dynamic in there, I suspect it could be very different, even if she's introvert.

The printer commentary is the singular, most poignant example of Ni in your post. Ni example: I constantly remind my wife to use brights while driving home in the dark, and dim those on the s- curve. She asks me why. " Because deer are smart enough not to cross at a blind corner, and people aren't conscientious enough to dim their own." -Fe

1:59 this is peak lack of Ti btw. It happens more often than you think. If you try to avoid killing squirrel, why is your first solution to not killing the squirrel killing the squirrel. This isn't consistent. This doesn't make sense.

seems true to me

Have you ever got into socionics and figured out your sociotype?

OG squirrel 🐿️ hater

enfp, not really understanding this video

3:35 damn I would of just run over the squirrel, then you wouldn’t even have to worry about it

For me, it's kamikaze birds.
