Ah right. My husband is amazingly good at guitar (according to the level of guitar players I've met) and I think it might have been NTs and not just his personality type, who enjoys a mix of creativity and intellectual work 🤔
There's a book called, "Please understand me II", and it calls the SP types artisans, but they have a weakness of being a bit flakey, but they also tend to be masters of their chosen artistry.
yeah makes sense. i personally mostly want to move from mastering one thing well enough to design something on it, and then make a new design on another thing. this does not lead to mastery of any given craft but makes it quite easy for me to adapt to new projects in my work as a computer programmer. it's more abstract, and not so much about mastery as about enumerating the structure of something.
so, i know a good bit of like 6 different human languages, but never mastered one
i can play guitar, recorder, and keyboard, but never mastered one
the first time i have actually really dug in and decided to master some things, first one was golang, second was bitcoin. third was nostr. but they are protocols, not practices. i'm immune to nonsense fud and disinfo about these subjects but i only master them as far as i need to apply to working with them.
i guess that's the thing about being intuitive. you don't really need to master something to be able to catch the pattern and elaborate it jazz style. AI systems are kinda similar, in that you feed them a load of data, and they distil a pattern out of it and then you can get them to freestyle a new version that mixes it all up.
so, i'd say that NT is a very common result for people with high intelligence and creativity. and the cool thing is we are kinda rare, like maybe 10% of teh population has the combination. by the numbers, i'd guess we are 2/16th of the population.
Cool, thanks for sharing.
Sounds like your mastery might be more programming, than the actual specific project, maybe?
Yes, at least in America, most people are sensors.
I'm from Sweden, and it seems there might be a higher density of Intuitive, maybe even NT, people there, as the country is basically run more on what works and technical language, than the American sensing and cooperation.
