Decision-Making

Reality Testing
Reality Testing is defined in EQ terms as
"The capacity to remain objective by seeing
things as they really are. This capacity
includes recognizing when emotions or
personal bias can cause one to be less
objective." (Book & Stein, 2000)

In ENFP terms, this means passing the firm

beliefs of Fi over to the ruthless inspection
of Te - who can help us separate true from
false, fantasy from reality and firm conviction
from stubborn internal invention. (By all
means, it happens to the best of us.)
Impulse Control
Impulse control is defined in EQ terms as
"The ability to resist or delay an impulse, drive
or temptation to act."
In ENFP terms, this means at least
considering and managing the collateral
damage of the rash decisions you're
inevitably going to make. The goal is not to
turn into a Judger It's just to live slightly more
consciously as the big ol' perceiver you are.
Problem Solving
Problem Solving is defined in EQ terms as
"The ability to find solutions to problems in
situations where emotions are involved. This
includes the ability to understand how
emotions impact decision-making.."
(Book & Stein, 2000)
In ENFP terms, this means being realistic
about how certain outcomes are likely to
make us feel - and recognizing that we need
to factor those feelings into our decisions,
lest our souls die a slow and excruciating
death while we pursue what's purely
practical in lieu of what lights our hearts on
fire.
