Personality
What personality type is Sam Harris? Sam Harris is an INFJ personality type in MBTI, 1w9 - so/sp - 152 in Enneagram, RCOAI in Big 5, LII in Socionics.
Typical solipsistic Ni dominant. A potential pitfall for INxJs is the belief their insights originated from an objective source (like Sam Harris here). It's where some of their "legendary" tunnel-vision comes in, believing that their insight is the one that best explains whatever idea their talking/thinking about. Edit: Before INxJs throw their pitchforks at me, according to Jung in Psychological Types §656, Ni doms often believe whatever they produce to be “objective discoveries,” the result of “rational analysis alone,” and so on. Some Ni doms, such as Nietzsche, have the extraordinary self-insight to see how they are in fact led along a certain path by such intuition. But as indicated from Jung’s portrait, most Ni doms are blind to the fact that they are guided by irrational intuition, thinking instead that they are perceiving the world “objectively.” This also fits my experience very with with INxJs.
