Creative subtype
The main characteristic of a creative person is paradoxical thinking and non-standard behavior, which allows solving problems of special complexity that are unaffordable to the usual, previously triggered techniques.
The main secret of creative energy is inner concentration to such an extent that the external situation is completely ignored.
I want to recall in this connection an episode from ancient history about Archimedes, who drew geometric figures on the sand, ignoring the Roman soldiers who broke into his home town of Syracuse at that moment.
This state of internal compression and painful fights accompanying the psychological "birth" of a new idea is rather painful. In this state, you do not want to eat or drink, the world loses its colors and temptations, you just want to push it out more quickly, which turns inside.
However, in the formula of creativity, it is also necessary to include the function E, with the help of which the generated idea is presented to the public in a catchy, memorable form. Archimedes, as you remember, shouted "eureka!". It is difficult to deny the special magnetism and manic nature inherent in creative.
So we get the formula IFE. However, one should not confuse creative inspiration with the emotional pressure of the dominant personality, which uses this tool much more efficiently and far surpasses the creative influence of people on the psyche of people.
The inevitable continuation of the merits of the creative are its shortcomings, which are very annoying to those who are close. First of all, we are talking about uneven working capacity and extreme individualism. Periods of inspiration alternate with stagnation, and even depressions. Individualism stems from an unwillingness to reckon with the norms accepted in the collective. The chief of the creative is forced to indulge him, otherwise he risks losing his talented unique (remember the series about Dr. House).
The creative subtype of a particular person, of course, can be combined with additional accentuations (and any). For example, Leo Tolstoy, although he was creative (I function was supported by F), but at the same time he was obsessed with non-resistance to evil by violence, which indicates the accentuation of the + R function. A similar combination of functions, in which one function reduces the other, takes a lot of energy from a person.
