hidden agenda

It's a pun on the realization of hidden agendas for different types.

The 4th function and the 6th function are of the same "type", but have different directions. If one is introverted, the other is extroverted, and vice-versa. This seems to make them work "together" in some strange way: having the hidden agenda (6th function) being satisfied takes some of the pressure of the (4th function) Place of Least Resistance, or Painful Function.

The hidden agenda "needs" listed here are ALL universal to every living human being; however, each person has a certain "need" that they find it difficult to accomplish because that "need" often requires use of the 4th function (Painful Function)

Try as we might, we can never realize the "needs" specific to our hidden agenda as much as we would like: doing so would make us use our Painful functions more than we really care to.

An important point:

The hidden agenda sometimes is a BIG part of a person acting contrary to what you would expect from the "typical" picture in your mind of a certain type.

Note: These are supposed to be informative and humerous. If you can't laugh at yourself...well...that only means that you just aren't funny! :D

ENTp, ESTp = Needs emotional stimulation and love. Fears to be cold and unloved.

Just had a hot argument with someone that would end any relationship? If they are ENxp, this is impossible! It will be forgotten tomorrow, much to your surprise (or chagrin!) They can kill your father, mother, and your cat, and will wonder why you don't return thier calls.

INTj, INFj = Needs to be vital and enjoy physicality. Fears to be weak and unhealthy.

The party animal nerd. The drunken philosopher. Argues vehemently that people should be rational while packing the bong for another hit. "Cogito, ergo, sum." he thinks, as he bangs his 3rd woman of the night.

ESFj, ESTj = Needs to use all potential and be perfect. Fears to miss opportunity.

Millionare, CEO, beautiful wife and kids, multifaceted, multitalented, but just will not SHUT UP about his misfortune 20 years ago when he broke his leg and missed a football scholarship and carrer. Will perform open-heart surgery on you if you ask, ESPECIALLY if he is not a doctor!

ISFp, INFp = Needs understanding and organization. Fears to be confused.

Let me get this straight: the Germans sank the Titanic, the Freemasons killed JFK, television reads your thoughts, and you can explain all this with quotes and citations...but you refuse to balance your checkbook!? How can you believe that others have such organizational abilities to execute all these conspiracies when you can barely remember how to fill your car with gas?

ENFj, ENTj = Needs to exercise will. Fears to be subjugated.

Can lead an entire nation into a volcano just for the hell of it. Any excuse becomes reasonable, as long as THEY are the ones in the drivers seat. If you need someone to head up your "Stop Cruelty to Road Signs" crusade, this your guy.

ISTj, ISFj = Needs to have schedule and internal balance. Fears spiritual disconnect.

What if I took an extra hour to do this? What if I took two? What would happen if I just quit? What if you were me, and I was you? What if God didn't exist? Whatever would you do? (On a serious note though, with these folks DON'T BE LATE, and DON'T CHANGE THE PLAN! I warned ya!)

ESFp, ENFp = Needs to be useful and practical. Fears to be useless.

Will bother you for hours asking to help, and when you finally give in, it will take MUCH more work to teach them exactly what to do, answer all thier questions, and fix all thier mistakes, than it would to do ten times the work that you had originally. Easier to call them "idiots" and be done with it!

INTp, ISTp = Needs to love and be morally sound. Fears to be hateful.

Just closed the Wisconsin branch because "It was not economically feasible," but her dog Kibbles snacks on $500/oz imported gormet caviar dog food. Cut health benifits, but volunteers at the local homeless shelter. Says he loves you, but looks perplexed when you smile at him.
