THINKING helps the mind establish an objective position.
Thinking is an abstract function that employs verifiable facts, logical operations, and clear,
consistent procedures in order to make decisions reasonable. Thinking tells us how to connect
truth and consequences, ideas and evidence, actions and outcomes. It is by thinking that we
determine what is true and what is false.
FEELING helps the mind establish a personal viewpoint.
Feeling is a concrete function that uses human values, personal preferences, and emotional
relationships in order to make decisions meaningful. Feelings tell us how to connect what we
want to what we have, where we live to where we are going, who we are to those with whom we
work. By feeling, we determine what is good and what is bad.
Thinking keeps our decisions correct, while feeling makes our purpose clear. As with sensing
and intuition, we all think and feel – we just prefer one function to the other.
THE THINKER PROFILE. Thinkers make decisions logically. They are objective, orderly and
well organized. They rely on well-thought-out procedures and logical principles.
Thinkers prefer a world as sharp as a lawyer's argument and as balanced as an equation. They
are uncomfortable with feelings, do not need social approval, and they like to look carefully
before they leap.
THE FEELER PROFILE. Feelers make decisions from the heart. They are subjective,
spontaneous and free-flowing. They rely on their own sense of like and dislike, right and wrong,
and they seek and enjoy the approval of others.
Feelers prefer to live in a friendly, harmonious world. They are uncomfortable with cold, hard
facts and leap enthusiastically before they look.
