Intuition

I, personally, have a very strong sense of intuition. It occurs in every part of my daily life, such as when I pick an answer for a multiple-choice question or choose what menu I would go for this evening. I don’t think or consider thoroughly about the conditions of each choice I could make, like each of their benefits and drawbacks. All people have times when they can make a decision without any hesitation because they have a feeling that it’d be right. Though it may not always be a right and rational decision, people would probably not change their minds if their inner voice says, “Go for it”. We call this ‘intuition’.

The Myers–Briggs Type Indicator, also known as MBTI personality test, examines whether the person is extraverted (E) or introverted (I), sensing (S) or intuitive (N), thinking (T) or feeling (F), and judging (J) or perceiving (P). Hence the result can come out 16 different combinations. For me, I was told I was an ENFP person: extraverted, intuitive, feeling and perceiving. To focus on sensing (S) and intuitive (N) factor, it represents the method by which someone perceives information. Sensing means that a person mainly believes information he or she receives directly from the external world. Intuition means that a person believes mainly information he or she receives from the internal or imaginative world. Hence, people who got N would be more likely to go for their own decisions and care not so much about what others say, as the information from their own outweighs that from outer world.
