Further explanation ―MBTI ➤Ni - Se User takes in observation concrete and raw sensory details to see underlying patterns and then create a single entity. →Besides the way he put Napoleon as symbol the example could be also when he understands all the hidden motives and lies in the letter from his mother. ➤Ne - Si User explores all possibilities and scattered ideas by colected and organized impressions. And because of collected impressions user often compares what was to what is. →His focus didn't lie in making own impressions about objects (Si) instead he took sensory details in the raw form (Se), but because it is his inferior function it was his weakness. He didn't focus on possibilities and new opportunities (Ne) prefering to make own absolute, ideal (Ni). His Ni ideals didn't correlated with Se reality and because of that his plan failed. (Ni-Se) instead of (Ne-Si) ➤Fe users don't naturally focus on making own values, their morals are based on their enviroment; universal view of morality. Need for harmony. ➤Fi users view things by personal values and set what is right, it's independent of the enviroment. Need for individuality. →For example Socrates and Nietzsche; Socrates believed in one universal ethic system that everyone should follow, not interveing into changing it to own rationale and the reverse was with Nietzsche, who posited that one should pursue own interest above of mankind. →His focus on the Individuality was strong, in simplification he though of himself as someone greater than "louses". Own Individuality allowed him to be above certain system, which mean he gave himself a "permission" to become another Napoleon. He decided to achieve it by killing the old woman, thinking it was the most efficient method (Te). He was ascerting a goal from his desires and ideals instead of harmonizing things with impersonal principles. (Te-Fi) instead of (Ti-Fe) ―Enneagram ➤5 "Basic Fear: Being useless, helpless, or incapable Basic Desire: To be capable and competent" →5s are afraid that they are no able to function succesfuly in the world, 5s feel they don't have the ability to do things as well as others, so they hide into their minds where they feel safe. In book his prior thinking was to see if he is capable to be the next Napoleon. Also his disintegration to 7 fit him well such as becoming more scattered and hyperactive. ➤w4 "Basic Fear: That they have no identity or personal significance Basic Desire: To find themselves and their significance (to create an identity)" Self explanatory quotation from enneagraminstitute: →"Fours typically have problems with a negative self-image and chronically low self-esteem. They attempt to compensate for this by cultivating a Fantasy Self—an idealized self-image which is built up primarily in their imaginations. A Four we know shared with us that he spent most of his spare time listening to classical music while fantasizing about being a great concert pianist—à la Vladimir Horowitz. Unfortunately, his commitment to practicing fell far short of his fantasized self-image, and he was often embarrassed when people asked him to play for them. His actual abilities, while not poor, became sources of shame."
