Hi. So Ive been thinking of being a Ni ego type because Ive been typed as such on my type me thread (based on limited information though) and it seems very relatable but Ive been having doabts. Everytime i think about me being an Ni ego type, i have this weird feeling or vibe that i might not be, i think it could be my subconscious telling me that I'm really not an Ni ego type (which will be referred to as NET) but it also might be this other thing, a lack of confidence being a NET. In MBTI communities who deal with cognitive functions, Ni is looked at as a god function that only the greatest of people get because it's so rare( i dont know if it's also considered rare in socionics too) and that makes me really insecure about considering myself as a NET because I'm not special at all but anyway...i would like some explanations of what Ni is and how each NET type would use Ni and how Ni can be identified by oneself in behavior and behaviors etc (if you guys can) and maybe some differences between Ni and other cognitive functions like Ne, Si and Ti.
Ive seen descriptions of Ni having a focus on time, some descriptions(which i can't recall exactly, just vague memories) in my opinion take it a bit to far, they focus on the aspects of time that seem S like or Te like. Focusing on punctuality and how long certain activities will take but this doesn't seem N like at all anyway i think we should get rid of that concept altogether as Ni should be more about symbolism, interpretation and development (of ideas, which would be the only points where Ni would focus on time because development can only happen over time) i doabt that much ethical NETs would enjoy reading a quantum physics (or whatever) book about time and stuff but i could still be clinging to MBTI definitions. Anyway, wouldn't my seemingly random speech style be Ne like or just irrational (in terms of socionics)? Are my constant doabts caused by Ni( which Ive read causes many doabts for NET types in socionics only, just wanted to add but in MBTI it's considered the anti doabt function, once it's made up it's mind then thats it) or Ne(seeing potential and possibilites)? So...yeah... thanks for participation(if there is any):content:. Sorry for being an Idiot.
