Fi artists often create for others. I know an INFJ for example that created a beautiful painting for a loved one as a birthday present. The work of art can be the means to the personal end it just depends.

I don't take everything Ganin says seriously. For example I don't trust V.I. as the best method for typing individuals. What I have consistently observed is that IxFxs tend to read a lot due to trying to cover up their weakness/trying to get more positive IM flow and because they have more time on their hands due to their introversion.

On the above that was NOT me trying to type just me noting an observation that I was trying to corroborate.

Isn't that just the energetic state of Ps in general? Also, ISFPs can be quite forceful and/or have strong leadership potential it just depends.
