Another's Perspective

Idealists are generally the best at entering into another person’s reality, at least in part. They tend to have problems in two basic areas, that of failing to stay true to themselves and demonizing the other person because of a values conflict. Rationals often can’t see why they should care about another’s reality except on a theoretical level. When they do care, they tend to feel very inadequate, an especially unpleasant feeling for Rationals. Guardians can have a hard time understanding that people really do see things differently. Once they can get to the point of seeing that the differences are good, most of them appreciate being taught. Artisans have no problem understanding that there are differing perspectives. They are often able to use and even exploit these differences. However, most Artisans have only a limited ability to truly enter fully into another’s perspective.
