He is very enthusiastic about getting new ideas and projects, and his enthusiasm may lead him to ignore the matters of his daily life. In general, he speaks frankly and expresses everything that is on his mind. Enjoy sitting with people and meetings. He has an excellent ability to understand theory and apply it practically to solve problems. Personal tendencies: extrovert, intuitive, rational, and permissive. He is one of the rationalists according to Cressey's theory of temperaments. The percentage of inventors, according to a study conducted on a sample of the American population, ranges between 2-5%.
An overview of the inventor's personality:
In his dealings with the outside world, the inventor has two situations. The first case is internal, where the inventor uses his intuition to take a position on things around him. The other situation is external, through which he deals with the situations around him according to what his mind and logic dictate to him. The inventor constantly uses his intuition to try to understand the images and ideas that he is exposed to during his life and in his surroundings. In this process, the inventor’s intuition develops to become quick-witted and accurate in understanding the situations and things that he encounters. Unlike the “hero character,” the inventor is the character in the sixteen classifications who is more understanding of the surroundings around him. This quick wit and keenness in understanding people and situations puts the inventor ahead of his peers and other personalities. As the years pass and he develops himself, the inventor gains experience and the ability to come up with alternative options and solutions to the problems he may face.
It can be said about the inventor that he is a person of creative and new ideas, as he sees opportunities and solutions in everything around him. He also has the ability and enthusiasm to spread these ideas and convey his enthusiasm for them to the people around him. In this way, the inventor gains support to realize his dreams and ideas.
The inventor does not pay much attention to developing business plans or making decisions as much as he pays attention to generating new ideas and alternative solutions. Continuing to work on an idea and developing it is the main work of an inventor. For some inventors, this often causes them to not finish what they started. An investor who has not developed his mental abilities will move from one idea to another enthusiastically without finishing either one or without following a plan for self-development or success. Therefore, the inventor must develop his own way of thinking about his ideas so that he can benefit from the ideas he produces.
The inventor makes his decisions by thinking alone. Although the inventor prefers to understand things and absorb information rather than make decisions, when making decisions, he follows a rational and logical path in arriving at conclusions. When the inventor applies reason and thinking to his introversion and isolation, the conclusions he reaches are strong and sharp. An inventor who develops his abilities is insightful, innovative, and bold.
The inventor is a good communicator, has a quick wit, and enjoys verbal sparring with others. He likes to discuss issues, and during the dialogue, he may move from the party he supports to another, out of a desire to enrich the dialogue and a love of discussion. Except in the case of a discussion about the principles in which he believes, in which case he feels confused and may interrupt or speak at length.
The inventor personality can be one of the personalities that carries the characteristics of the “adviser personality.” This is because the inventor may do anything to achieve his ideas. Just as a lawyer may acquit a criminal by finding loopholes in the law or system, an inventor may do anything to implement his ideas. This is without any feeling of remorse or internal feeling of wrongdoing. If this behavior of the inventor goes without reviewing his ideas, this may cause the inventor to be seen as an unethical or dishonest person. Naturally, the inventor is a rational personality who does not see the value of people’s feelings in making decisions. If the inventor does not remember to take into account people’s feelings when making his decisions, he may be seen as a person without feelings.
The least developed parts of the inventor's personality are the five senses aspect in receiving information and feelings when making decisions. If the inventor does not develop the five senses, he will face problems in not paying attention to the fine details in his life. As for the inventor who has not developed the emotional side, the inventor may not pay enough attention to the opinions of others, or he may become aggressive and cruel.
When under pressure, the inventor loses his ability to generate alternative solutions and options and becomes obsessed with minute details. These details are seen by the inventor as very important, but in reality, they are not important for solving the problem in the big picture.
In general, the inventor is an optimistic and dreamy personality. An inventor values knowledge and spends much of his life trying to gain a greater understanding of life and its contents. The inventor lives in a world of possibilities and options and is excited by concepts, challenges, and difficulties. When he faces a problem, he is good at improvising and finding several solutions to it. The inventor is a creative, intelligent person, passionate about science and theories, all of which help him innovate and excel in any field he undertakes in his life.
Inventor as husband/wife:
In his marital relationship, like everything else in his life, the inventor seeks development and growth. The inventor constantly asks himself questions such as: How can I develop my marital relationship? Is my marital relationship developing? Likely, the inventor will enthusiastically invite his partner to come up with new ideas and projects that will help develop and strengthen the marital relationship. In general, his enthusiasm and purity of heart guide the marriage in the right direction and help in its success.
One of the inventor's problems in the marital relationship is his constant tendency not to follow through on the plans he sets for himself. This may cause frustration for his partner, and his wife may become accustomed to the inventor not continuing with the plan he set for himself. This, in turn, may lead the husband to not be enthusiastic about working with the inventor on his projects because he expects that sooner or later the inventor will move on to another plan.
Another problem with the inventor is his excessive recklessness, which may put the family in a difficult financial situation.
In general, the inventor's childish enthusiasm and sincere interest in the health and strength of the marital relationship make him able to provide a healthy, strong, and continuous marital relationship, God willing. But he needs to remind himself of the importance of researching and trying to discover what his husband feels since the inventor by nature does not have the natural ability to sense the feelings of others and act accordingly.
Although any relationship between people of the 16 typologies may be successful, the inventor's natural partner or spouse is the advisor (INFJ) or the mastermind (INTJ).
The inventor as parent:
With his cheerful and optimistic nature, it can be said that there is a young child inventor inside every person. The inventor takes education with a fun and loving approach, and he does so for one goal: to emerge from any accident with a lesson “for the child and the inventor.” This helps the child grow up as an independent and rational thinker.
The inventor is often inconsistent in the time he spends with his children. At one point, he is very interested in the children and everything they do. Once his work calls him or he finds his way in a scheme to improve a system, he will subconsciously ignore and neglect his children.
The inventor as a friend:
The inventor can fuse with anyone from the sixteen classes. By using his intuition, he can know what attracts others and wins their admiration, even though the inventor does not sympathize or agree with people who do not see things the way he sees them. Despite this, the inventor has a flexible personality, is easy to keep up with, and enjoys dialogue and talking with others.
Although the inventor gets along with a lot of people, he surrounds himself with a small number of mature-minded, capable people. An inventor loves nothing more than a good discussion and conversation with someone. This, in turn, will activate and motivate the inventor, as he loves competition and discussing theories.
The inventor may sometimes tend to be like “the only person against everyone.” If the inventor does not pay attention to it or uses it excessively, this may cause problems in his personal or marital relationships.

Enhancing the inventor's strengths:
Your personality is superior to other personalities in several aspects. Knowing these points, focusing on them, and developing them, will help you stand out and excel over your peers. Inventors will notice these qualities in themselves, and they are what they should focus on and nurture:
- The ability to hold several points of view on a matter, and to see the advantages and disadvantages of each opinion.
- Finding methods and ways to accomplish work that no one has ever thought of before.
- He can quickly answer any question related to his interest and address it from several angles and details.
- See the other side of any problem.
- The ability to work on more than one project and task at the same time.
- The ability to confront in a discussion or discussion alone and without any support or support.
- The ability to quickly find the ideal role for others.
- Quickly seeing connections between things that are not clear to others.
An investor who develops the introverted thinking side of his personality will receive the following:

- The ability to draw up a diagram of a design or building, confident that it is correct.
- The ability to identify the things that others need and provide them to them, without the other party knowing their need and without requesting it.
- Artistic, rhetorical, and literary talent.
Expected problems for the inventor:
Most of the problems that an inventor is expected to have stemmed from the dominance of his open intuition over the rest of the characteristics of his personality. Therefore, you are expected to encounter the following problems:
- A tendency to believe that thinking and careful calculation of matters is a waste of time.
- Inability to see the emotional and social needs of people close to him.
- Lack of empathy for people who need feelings such as reassurance, security, or commitment.
- Inability to work on fine details, or continue working on a project that requires stopping and waiting.
- Feeling extremely disturbed by the minute matters and details that must be completed to complete the project or achieve the goal.
- Tendency to be arrogant or arrogant, and to belittle people who do not agree with him on solutions.
- He may find himself in a bad topic, because of his haste and taking big steps faster than expected.
To overcome these points, you must pay attention to the information you obtain through your open intuition. After you obtain information, give yourself enough time to analyze and research it. The nature of your personality will make you believe that you are aware of the information and absorb it as soon as you receive it, and this is not true. Also, try to remember that others are happy and encouraged when they have the opportunity to participate and express their opinion. This also applies to those close to you. Try to allow them to participate with you in your decisions, and research, and listen to their opinions, and if you have to refuse, be gentle in your refusal.
