Portrait of an INTJ. As an INTJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily via your intuition.
Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things rationally and logically. INTJs live in the world of ideas and strategic planning. Portrait of the Rational Mastermind (INTJ) All Rationals are good at planning operations, but Masterminds are head and shoulders above all the rest in contingency planning.
Complex operations involve many steps or stages, one following another in a necessary progression, and Masterminds are naturally able to grasp how each one leads to the next, and to prepare alternatives for difficulties that are likely to arise any step of the way. Trying to anticipate every contingency, Masterminds never set off on their current project without a Plan A firmly in mind, but they are always prepared to switch to Plan B or C or D if need be. Masterminds are rare, comprising no more than one to two percent of the population, and they are rarely encountered outside their office, factory, school, or laboratory. INTJ (Strategist) Personality Type - Jungian.
