hmmm... well i know that they're HAs are all "to be perfect" but i never understood how the worked into the whole "to be perfect" thing...
i've heard of beta NFs being perfectionists and in general being associated with perfectionism.
also too, i think could definitely be perceived as perfectionistic.

me neither
On the other hand, I can see the perfectionism in ESjs, I'm just not sure what exactly it has to do with Ne.
I don't think I'm any more a perfectionist than most people. I believe a lot of people would call themselves "perfectionists", it seems like a good vice to have (though I'm sure it really isn't). From the outside, my life is a mess, and I don't appear to have very high standards for life. Maybe the fact that I'm never satisfied with anything in life is a sign of perfectionism. It can be good, but it's never best.

Perfectionistic would be the last word to describe me, I only am if I really like what I'm doing.

+Te/-Ti is the function of perfectionism. +Te is the function of actually being perfect, while -Ti is pensive.

liveandletlive, Ne is associated with perfectionism because it is about ideals. So, a motivated INTj will be highly perfectionistic, i.e., trying to fulfill his vision - especially through +Te. That's why the ESj's h.a. is perfection....not only are they rational types who work hard, but they have these ideal standards for themselves deep down that drive them.
on wiki, there was this quote about Ne saying how the individual will focus on his vision of how reality should be, and will appear overly idealistic, but that is, in essence, a cause of perfectionism.
It depends what you mean by perfection. For an LSI, perfection would be refining a definition within their ideal system. For an EII, it would be about becoming as moral as humanly possible.
I think, generally, IJs are those most likely to be concerned with perfection because Ti is about systems and perfecting those systems, and Fi is about bonds and maintaining those bonds.
Well I know two ISFps who are very perfectionistic when it comes to some things (but not everything). Mostly they're perfectionists when it comes to their work (they are both graphic designers).

I'm not perfectionistic in my opinion, when it comes to work, I hurry through it. But if it's a design, I need to feel that it is perfect before I'm done. Most of the time it's not, so no one will see it.
But for other types, LSI and (possibly)EIE seems to be the most perfectionististic when it comes to getting work done.

Unless it is something like workers @ a nuclear plant, I could care less about perfectionism. Perfectionism is best left to things of dire consequence.
I agree. Ti can lead to an extreme need for thoroughness - like your experience of organizing music files obsessively. I also know an ENTp who plays video games and feels like he absolutely has to complete every last objective, even if it's not strictly necessary to beating the game. I have the same kind of tendency.
I suppose Fi could also be related to perfectionism, since IxFjs seem to usually be quite perfectionistic. But the relation isn't as clear as with Ti.
I don't really see ENFjs as perfectionistic. Maybe when they engage Ti and Si they tend to go overboard?
depends. if they have the willpower, they probably will implement them to some degrees.Originally Posted by ifmd95
and hhkkmr, I agree with your post.
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...
There's one thing I'm perfectionistic about, and it's time. I'm always perfectly punctual and get very disgruntled at people that aren't.
