Even beyond that: its never really felt very "common" to me. I've never grasped the idea. It feels more of a foreign thing than anything else.Happy said:The ENTj does not trust common sense...
My sense is my sense...oft-judged as far too elaborate and extravagant - "looking into things too much" - the reason I tend not to let it show alot. Can anyone else relate?
Happy said:...He likes to look behind preconceived ideas. He does not care about consensus or other people opinions. He wants to examine the facts by himself, with a fresh new look. The difference with other NT's is that once the ENTj has found something new, he wants to shout it to the rest of the people in the world and convince them that they were wrong. This makes the ENTj look like a Galileo trying to tell people that the earth is round. Few people like to have their beliefs challenged this way and so the ENTj can sometimes appear as pretentious. Fortunately, this attitude is also what makes him a potential leader.
