I didn’t know Jung came up with this concept.
The power of ideas is amazing. Hardly anyone knows Jung, but everyone knows introvert vs extravert.
The same goes for Freud, more have heard of him but still mostly under educated people, but everyone knows what is meant by subconscious, which was a concept he came up with.
Even though they both had many weird, good and bad ideas. Their reputation as great thinkers iOS valid just by these 2 contributions they made to human thoughts.
Ages from now kids will speak of their subconscious and being an introvert while Jung & Freuds names will only be known to a few niche historians.
- kgwxd 3y agoIt doesn't seem Jung really did the world any favors with this concept. He introduced highly inadequate terms that are mostly used to pigeonhole people into a simple box that supposedly sums up all their behavior. Turning it into a linear scale doesn't make it any better. Don't like big crowds? Learn how to like big crowds. Don't know how to be with your own thoughts for a long time? Learn to do it. Don't say it can't be done, I've done it, and I've been told I have a learning disability. No one should lock themselves, or others, into a "personality" box, and all this nonsense should be entirely disregarded.
