Beginners in socionics often make the first, second, or both in turn typing errors. If you like socionics, and you want to successfully and profitably use it in life, learn to avoid these mistakes.
Error 1. Typing indiscriminately
The newly emerged socionic begins to type everyone and everyone, without demand and indiscriminately. Starting with loved ones, ending with trees and ants. The whole world appears before his eyes in the form of circles, triangles, squares and other geometric shapes.
In communication with a zealous rookie-socionic, you will not have time to open your mouth, and he already squints a cunning eye and mysteriously says: “Ahhhh! This is intuitive (sensory, logical, ethical - you need to emphasize)” It becomes unbearable to communicate with him, no matter what you do, a convert will immediately make sense in terms of socionics.
Okay, I would still type and keep quiet. But no! A socionic recruit wants to share a wonderful (explaining everything!) Discovery with others and teach socionics the whole world, no matter how the world resists it.
As a result, the young (regardless of passport age) socionics have to stay close to their own kind, and ordinary people, after watching the behavior of zealous typists, consider socionics a sect. (Socionics is not a sect!)
Mistake 2. Renounce socionics after the first unsuccessful typing
The second error is exactly the opposite of "Error 1".
The young socionic, having familiarized himself with the basics of this wonderful practice, begins to type, but
he does not succeed.
It is necessary to mention here that at first glance, socionics is simple (8 functions, 16 types), but in fact it requires a certain skill for successful application. A skill needs time, and a typer needs patience. Short-term seminars or courses are needed for an initial introduction to theory. Typing practice needs to be developed, for a long time and a lot, and sometimes independently.
Faced with the first difficulties of typing, the young socionic despairs and gradually forgets about socionics. Unfortunately, not everyone has the patience, perseverance and motivation to learn socionic typing for a long time. And socionics risks being undeservedly forgotten.
