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

And I'm Antonio Dodge. Today we have a guest host, Christian Rivera from the

dopamine podcast, back with us Christian welcome.

Thank you. I'm excited to be here. So we were working on an idea. In fact, Christian and I last night started talking about this idea

that was sparked while Joel and I were hosting Dr Daryonardi through what we were calling the Magic Diamond

Workshop which was a coaching series based on his new book which we've been

saying in the podcast recently go buy it because it's

really great and during the Magic Diamond workshop we went through the importance

of developing one's sixth function. Now we've done a previous podcast on the

order in which to develop all eight of your cognitive functions recently so I

highly recommend listening to that podcast first if you haven't done so already in order

to have a better understanding of what we're talking about in this podcast.

And of course if you're not familiar with cognitive functions at all, we recommend listening to our

podcast on the car model. All right, so just assuming that you know what the

sixth function is, having listened to those previous two podcasts, there is a lot of wisdom in developing

one sixth function. Now if you don't know what the sixth function is for your

personality type, what you do is you take your auxiliary or co-pilot function and then you reverse the attitude.

Attitude is a fancy way of saying either the introverted or the extroverted nature of it. So like for me I'm an ENCP, my auxiliary or

co-pilot function is introverted thinking or accuracy, and so my sixth function is extroverted thinking or effectiveness and so on and so forth.

So we were Christian and I were sort of talking about this idea that came up for me during

Magic Diamond which is that even if you haven't fully developed your sixth function, just like acknowledging

it, just sort of infusing a little bit of its energy could give you a shot in the arm to get you out of a cognitive function loop
