Personality
What personality type is Critic (3rd Past)? Critic (3rd Past) is an personality type in MBTI, 4w5 - - in Enneagram, in Big 5, in Socionics.
[Full Temporistic Description by Alexander Latyshev] —— [The critique] Each type assigns a specific role to the personal past. For the critic, the past is the criterion. The past is a source of answers to the question “who am I?”, awareness of one's strengths, capabilities, and character traits. For the critic, the answer to the question "Who am I?" - this is the main criterion for the quality oflife, one of the main tools for self-assessment. Past criticism is in the painful aspect, which corresponds to the pattern of behavior “Me minus, You minus” (I’ll just simplify to-), "You-" means that critic will not trust other people's judgements about himself. He can take into account someone else's opinion, he can think about it for a long time or even worry, but the "last word" will always remain with the critic. The critic himself must decide who he is, thesearch for an answer to the question “who am I?” he considers it his and only his task. “Me-” comes from the negative, limiting aspect. The critic cannot choose who to be, he can only judge himself. The evaluative, "parental" pressure of one's past often makes the critic weak, defenseless infront of his past, and underestimates his self-esteem. For example, Herbert Wells (VBPN), who wrote 40 novels and an equal number of volumes of forecasts and journalism, whose works, when published, broke the circulation records of all other books in the entire history of English literature, writes: as if under a stick, with irritation, in a hurry, poorly edited, pale and flabby, like a nun overfed with potatoes.”(I know that it’sworded kinda weirdly, but I hope you get the thing) - he demonstrates the position “Me-, You -” (this thing is so E4 xD). The past puts pressure on the critic with its immutability, static character. Unlike the future and the present, it is not subject to control, and therefore the critic perceives his past mistakes more painfully. As a rule, when trying to get out of the assessment, the critic uses one of the following strategies:-break with the past, step back, forget- Take a break from the past by immersing yourself in activities on the first, positively motivating aspect. Give yourself such a low rating that nothing external could hurt you more. The European writer Franz Kafka (3rd past), the author of "The Castle" and "The Metamorphosis"used the latter method. In the surviving letters written by Kafka to his friend Max Brod, Kafka constantly refers to himself as "an insignificant, miserable writer." He is sincerely surprised when someone shows himfavor, admires his work. “For me, this is touchy and embarrassing,” Kafka writes to journalist Milena Esenskaya, who took on the task of translating his prose into Czech. “Touching and embarrassing” is a fairly natural response from a critic when he suddenly receives a positive assessment about a dubious pieceof his past. Before his death, Kafka bequeathed to burn all his drafts, letters and unpublished books.You can easily recognize a critic by asking him to tell about himself. Depending on whether the criticuses flight or overcompensation, we will hear either an embarrassed, confused and short story, or a vivid description. But, in any case, the critic will try with his story to create a certain image of himself in the listener. This image may be different, including negative ones, but it is important for criticism that he will know, control how exactly the other person sees him. This gives the critic a sense of security, because if the critic knows how they see him, he will not fall on an unexpected assessment. ——
