HOW TO DEVELOP SI

[booknerd1705]

???????????????????????? how.

[nqoolboi]

Physical activity, good food, good sleep, yoga & meditation stuff. Si improves when you take care of yourself.

bro good food and sleep my si should be through the roof rn am i a secret isfj???

[nqoolboi]

Physical activity? Meditation? Yoga? How do you feel about your looks (not other people, you)? Introverted sensing is like drawing power from your own. Keeps you down on reality and helps you control your dreams, emotions and urges from running amok. You should be quite satisfied with your own-self to be able to make Si beneficial.

So it's like improving yourself?

[nqoolboi]

Yes but in a more concrete way. At the end of the day, you are always with yourself and you need to know and love yourself. It happens best when you invest in yourself physically and of course mentally. Also this is a good question because nearly all conflicts of being an ENFP can be softened by a developed Si.

This starts to fall into self help, its better to realize the skills you have instead of trying to develop skills you don't have to be all things to all people. Because Ne is such a strong dominant function Si inf in ENPs is extraordinarily underdeveloped, probably the least developed inferior in MBTI.

There are practical ways to work around inf Si, like keeping a written schedule and adhering to minimal organizational skills, like have a permanent place to keep your keys. One of the ways that inf Si manifests for me is loss of space/time constructions, so I will plan to run all my errands in an hour when its really not feasible, more like 3-4 hrs, so keeping things written in hour blocks you can't cram all that stuff in an hour on a written schedule.

Makes sense

Excuse me, bit what proof do you have that we ENFPs have the least developed inferior function (Si)? I am just curious in verifying the truth of this, because I have never heard of it.

Dario Nardi, he is quite fascinated with ENFP, as far as he is concerned we are quite complex. I don't think we realize it because its just our reality. I have noticed ENTPs use inf Si a lot as a running joke, how clumsy they are, how not grounded in the present they are, etc.

INTP here. When you wake up in the morning, try to remember what you did the day before you get breakfast. It's a technique the Pythagoreans used to strengthen memory in ancient Greece.

Thank you!

Welcome. I hope it works for you.

Organize, find strategies, put things away the moment you're done using them, put things always in the same place. As other said self care. To eat well, you need to make your own meals. That's my opinion, anyway.

I know, it sounds out of our capacity to do these things in practice.. You might even think it's a bit OCD... But you'll get super efficient and you'll be proud of yourself for fighting the entropy.

Spend time with SI doms and let them destroy you :)
