„I take risks because I get bored. And I get bored very easily.“ — Rihanna

„If you don’t live your life, then who will?“ — Rihanna

EXTRAVERTED SENSATION—ES(F) AND ES(T)

• The orientation of such an individual corresponds with purely concrete reality. Their life is an accumulation of actual experience with concrete objects.
• What they experience serves at most as a guide to fresh sensations; anything new that comes within their range of interest is acquired by way of sensation. Sensation for them is a concrete expression of life—it is simply real life lived to the fullest.
• Their entire aim is concrete enjoyment, and their morality is oriented accordingly. This doesn’t mean that they are just sensual or gross, for they may differentiate their sensation to the finest pitch of aesthetic purity.

INTROVERTED FEELING—IF(S) AND IF(N)

• The aim of the Introverted Feeling [the IF and FP one-sidedness] is not to accommodate the objective fact since its whole unconscious effort is to give reality to the underlying ideals. It is continually seeking an ideal that has no existence in reality.
• It strives after an inner intensity. This type is usually silent and difficult to access. With sensitivity, it shrinks from the brutality of the object, in order to expand into the depths of the subject.

EXTRAVERTED FEELING—EF(S) AND EF(N)

• Without this feeling, a beautiful and harmonious sociability would be unthinkable. It is of the highest importance for Extraverted Feeler [EF and FJ one-sidedness] to establish an intense feeling of rapport with the environment.
