If you have an “F” in your profile, then you may have a mind that is sensitive to emotional messages. The presence of an “F” is an indicator that emotions predominate in your decisions. Our society, which worships reason, may make you feel less than human. Don’t despair. Your emotional mind is a wealth of information and has its own logic. For the moment, simply note the connection of the “F” to feelings and read on. I will explain further why emotions should not to be given a bad rap.
If You Have an NF in Your Profile
With the “NF”, we enter an intense emotional realm where emotions can be so powerful that they affect the quality of life and mold a special type of personality. The “N” stands for intuition. Intuition is, in part, an insight into what we see, hear, feel, or think. We meet someone and say to ourselves, “I just can’t trust him,” or “Something is troubling that person.” The message from our intuition may be even more precise, such as “I am sensing that person has a troubled home and is in the grip of fear.” If this is ou are particularly sensitive to emotional messages.
NFs Have Heightened Empathy and Sensitivity
In the NF temperament empathy reaches the height of its powers, and sensitivity is, as a result, also heightened. The combination of emotion, intuition, empathy, and sensitivity produces an especially powerful emotional mind. Each strength stimulates and feeds the other, and they increase in power the more we focus on them or on the feeling they produce. It can amount to a mental cyclone and give birth to overpowering rumination, which can be either helpful or hurtful.
The NF is the temperament that produces great emotional insight. And with it comes either exceptional emotional intelligence or enslavement to emotion’s powers with little rational judgment entering the picture. Therefore, it is imperative that the NF learn emotional intelligence.
So, You Don’t have an F?
If you do not have an F in your temperament profile, you will find it hard to understand the reactions and feelings of the emotional mind. Your rational mind will no doubt predominate and may negatively mold your opinions of those who express, depend on, and are enriched by powerful emotions.
Do Emotional Messages Escape Your Notice?
The Ts, as these people are referred to, are all about logic and reason and, in the case of the NT, particularly so. Details and the careful pursuit of research engages them. The NT lives in the world of pragmatic theory. The intuition that they have is confined within the bounds of reason rather than emotion. And this is the way they like to think since these urges or strengths are dominant in their makeup.

Our first and most important task in a world-changing mission is to learn how to think straight (and teach straight thinking) and combat the insurgence of crooked thinking in our culture and in our world today. If we become passive victims of this crooked way of thinking, we promote it. Furthermore, if we remain silent, we also give it credence. In Who Am I?, the reader progresses from how we have become “crooked thinkers” to how to break out of this prison of the mind to become instruments of change for a better world. We do this by recognizing from where we derive our value as humans. “Build a straight and powerful mind.” ~ Ray W. Lincoln
