My attempt to help explain what the third function is and how it influences our personalities

Good summary of Tert functions. But it's pronounced ''Briggs'' not ''Bridge'' sorry, that that kinda irked me.


My personal take on it would be:

IxTJs: To live according to their own personal needs and motivation, albeit in a productive, rational manner.

IxFJs: Learning to be more independent and judging people objectively

ISxPs: Figuring out their purpose in life (100% agree with this one)

INxPs: Settling down, developing a routine to keep them more disciplined and grounded.

ESxJs: Looking for opportunities to better their lives (A promotion or change of position at the job is the most common example).

ENxJs: Wanting to be successful and enjoying the finer things of life (100% agree on this one as well).

ExTPs: Wanting to be inspirational to others or having more meaningful relationships than just acquaintances.

ExFPs: Realizing that life is not all fun and games and developing a strong business sense.



Note that for Inferior functions it's literally the same list but more around the age of 40 (or midlife crisis).
