♡ Joshua Pearce: ESFP so3w4 ♡ ★ "I've been eating dirt to get where I am." — Joshua to Sonny. ★ Joshua is a typical e3 with a dominant social instinct, "prestige." His personality is characterized by perseverance, determination, and a desire to improve and become stronger every day. Joshua's personality revolves around the opinions of others, and he may feel angry internally but forces a smile and showcases himself in public. He gets very angry when Sonny shows up, tries to take his place, and points out the insincerity of Joshua's character. ★ "The main belief of so3 is that they have the power of will and action to change not only events, but also people. This idea is closely related to their belief that doing something is of great importance. In their relentless pursuit of success, they lose sight of the meaning behind it." — from e3 book by Claudio Naranjo. ★ Joshua's development as a so3 can be seen towards the end of the movie, when he begins to understand Sonny's philosophy, who loved racing not for the sake of fame, but for the sake of racing itself. Joshua refuses his manager's suggestion to go to the press and calls it "white noise." ★ There is no doubt that Joshua is the Se-Fi type. He could be mistaken for a stereotypical ENTJ due to his desire to keep everything under control and work hard, but he is also more prone to taking risks and being more focused on the physical world. A notable scene is when he impulsively rejects Sonny's advice, leading to an accident and the burning of his car. He makes decisions on the spot without considering the consequences. ★ "Since objects evoke sensations, they are considered significant and, as far as is possible for a sensation, are fully perceived in the mind, regardless of whether they are suitable from the perspective of rational judgment or not." — Jung's description of dominant Se. ★ "The Achilles' heel of this type is introverted intuition. Everything that comes from within seems unhealthy and pathological. Their thoughts and feelings are explained by objective reasons or the influence of others. Within the subject itself, this manifests itself in bad feelings, suspicious thoughts, and the possibility of misfortune." — Jung's of inferior Ni. ★ Joshua's inferior Ni is strongly noticeable in his interactions with Sonny, where Joshua tries to read the hidden motives of the older racer's actions and gets into conflicts with him, interpreting all of his actions as Sonny's desire to "be an arrogant jerk who acts like he is above everyone" and eventually get rid of Joshua and make him lose his position as a racer. ★ As for the secondary and tertiary function, Joshua prefers the Fi-Te axis over the Ti-Fe axis, unlike Sonny. His feelings come from within, and he regularly checks in with his values in conversations with others, as seen in his interactions with his mother, manager, and Sonny. Joshua feels a disconnect between what others tell him and what he feels, and he is willing to stand up for what he believes in with confidence. ★ The Se-Te loop is also noticeable in the middle of the movie, when Joshua puts his morals aside for the sake of victory and success, competing with Sonny and behaving aggressively on the track in order to prove his independence, causing Joshua to forget why he really wanted to participate in the race. ★ At the end of a movie, Joshua starts to understand Sonny more, mostly after he found out that the older racer had simular experiences with him (like father's death at 13), it's a sign of Fi, they understand others motives through the prism of their own feelings.
