Of all the types, the INTP (Accuracy/Exploration genius) is the most interested in analysis and theoretical logic. They have a natural understanding of how data systems work, as well as an inborn skill for spotting inconsistencies and incongruities. When they scan data and information – which they are doing all the time – they are looking for information that contradicts itself. The more ‘clean’ and ‘elegant’ the system (that is, the fewest contradictions within the data) the more satisfying. Once on track with an elegant frame, they’re off to mix and match information, form new theories and hypotheses, and introduce radically new ways of understanding the world. Since data, not people, catch their attention they are some of the least social of all the types. It’s not uncommon for this type to be awkward around others. People very rarely ‘make sense’, and the intense emotions of others can be more confusing than uncomfortable.

INTP Fast Personal Growth
Exploration (Extraverted
Intuition) allows an INTP
to test their conclusions.
Are they falling for any
bias? Is there a piece of
information they’re
missing? Sometimes the
only way to know is to get
out in the bigger world
and see for themselves.
There may even be a radically new way of seeing
the same information, leading to an awesome new innovation.
Plus, it’s fun! The more cheerful an INTP becomes, the healthier.
Your happiness
depends upon you
getting outside your
comfort zone.

INTP Defensive Strategy
Tertiary (10 Year Old) :
Introverted Sensing
“Memory”
Memory (Introverted Sensing) generally shows up
when you’re afraid to take a risk – a risk you may
intuitively know is right for you. For other people,
playing it safe is the best choice. But you’re much
better at taking risks.
If you let your 10 year old do your thinking for you,
it will encourage you to become an “intellectual
shut-in,” not open to any new information, and
your thinking will become sloppy. At worst, your
type can even become physical shut-ins, so afraid
of taking risks they rarely leave the house and
instead choose to entertain themselves in a “safe”
environment.
You need to explore and take chances to prevent
becoming stagnant in your choices and worldview.

INTP- Where To Go From Here
Auxiliary (Co-Pilot) :
Extraverted Intuition
“Exploration”
The enemy of Exploration is the mundane and
the rote. Exploration requires freedom to
experiment, and too much mundane activity or
reliance upon procedure is disheartening to your
Exploration process.
Set up your conditions to access this mental
process as much as possible.
A good way to practice this technique is to seek
out new situations you would not normally
pursue. If there’s a question of doing something
that feels right to you, but may have hassle or an
‘unsafe’ element to it, practice taking the risk
instead of playing it safe. It’s common for people
of your type, once they get past the ‘scary’ part,
to say “Was that it?” Most of your growth
happens by being adventurous and letting go of
the belief that you must live the way others want
you to live.
