Hi, welcome back to the Personality Hacker Podcast. My name is Jill Mark Witt.

And I'm Antonia Dodge. Today we're continuing our series on developing the co-pilot

cognitive function for each of the Myers-Briggs personality types. This is the fourth

of the series. If you are just jumping on, this is your first podcast,

we recommend that you maybe go back and listen

to the beginning podcast in this series

and even check out the podcast on the car model. You'll get a little bit of

history and a little bit of context for what we're talking about.

Effectively we are diving into the cognitive functions which make up the backbone of each of the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types.

And the development of these cognitive functions is pretty important in order to be at your best for each of these types.

Now if you have listened to those podcasts and you understand what we mean by the car model, you know that the driver or the dominant

cognitive function for each of the Myers-Briggs types is your go-to tool in your toolbox.

It's the fun place.

It's interesting. It's how you define

yourself. But we have a tendency to resist development of the co-pilot process

because it lives in the opposite attitude of the driver process, which the attitude means if you are introverted,

your driver process is introverted and by definition your co-pilot is extroverted it has an extroverted attitude which is the world that you're not as familiar with or it's not as it's not as comfortable to you and

the opposite is also true.

If your driver is an extroverted cognitive function,

then your co-pilot is going to be an introverted cognitive function.

And so since it occupies the opposite attitude

or a different world, we have a tendency to sort of marginalize it
