How is someone who is an introvert, intuitive, feeler, perceiver; different from someone who is an extrovert, sensing, thinker, judger? The different combinations of these four areas (how we are energized, communicate, make decisions, and prioritize) helps us understand our specific personality style. Throughout the rest of the blog…
Over the last three blogs, we have looked at how different people energize, communicate, and make decisions. Today we will look at how different people prioritize. Again, we can break this down into two different styles of prioritizing.
As with the extrovert and introvert; sensing and intuitive; there is no right or wrong when it comes to being a thinker or a feeler. We need both. When they work together, instead of against each other, they both can be more productive, happy, and content.

You know – when the car sounds like the motor is about to explode every time you stop at a traffic signal…. there may be an automobile repair in your near future.
Cars break down, people get sick, houses needs immediate repairs, and people lose jobs. Emergencies happen. It is a fact of life. It is wise to be prepared. We need an emergency fund.
