LSE are rmore relaxed in their natural state than ESI. However LSE will mobilize and concentrate when needed to accomplish an objective. After the task has been completed, LSE demobilize again. This state of demobilization is the natural state of LSE.
When contemplating a task, it takes LSE longer time to mobilize than ESI; i.e., LSE prefer to spend some time in a more natural state of relaxedness which will then prepare them to subsequently mobilize and concentrate at the crucial moments, improving their performance.
When working on a project, LSE are more likely than ESI to break up larger tasks into several stages. Then LSE mobilize to carry out each stage (and demobilize between the stages).
When getting ready to start a project, LSE spend more time planning and preparing for the project than ESI. In particular, LSE spend more time discussing the plan, discussing options and ways to approach the project, etc.)
When describing their reasoning for their actions, LSE (more so than ESI) tend describe how and why they came to a certain decision, and focus less on the timing and initiation of the action.
When it comes to completing a task, ESI are more likely than LSE to mobilize for longer periods of time. Specifically, ESI tend to mobilize for an action early and stay mobilized for a longer period of time after the task has been completed. For ESI, this state of readiness is their natural state.
ESI are more likely than LSE to tackle a task in its entirety, rather than breaking it up into smaller separate stages.
When doing a task, ESI are inclined to work for the sake of the result (for example, a reward or bonus for completing the task). In contrast to LSE, ESI can renounce their comforts and conveniences for this; ESI evaluate their place of work by looking at what returns they get for the effort they invested (e.g., monetary, prestige, etc.).
When describing why they undertook a project, ESI are more likely than LSE to focus on the moment when a decision is made and to speak in detail about the stages of its implementation.
When discussing work, ESI are more likely than LSE to focus on the fruits of their labor, about what their effort will yield. LSE on the other hand are more likely to focus on the environment they work in, e.g., their work conditions, conveniences, commute time, etc.
LSE are more likely to make decisions based on logical reasons than ESI, who are more likely to make decisions based on their own feelings.
ESI are often better at solving and minimizing interpersonal problems, where as LSE often struggle understanding them.
LSE are often more interested in studying systems, structures, and functionality than ESI.
ESI tend to prefer using persuasion as a means of convincing others to do something, where as LSE prefer to use argumentation as a means of convincing others.
ESI are more vulnerable to logical manipulation than LSE. However LSE in contrast, are often more vulnerable to emotional or ethical manipulations than ESI.
LSE place greater value on their interests than ESI. For example, LSE will maintain high levels of energy and focus on an interest they value, even deprioritizing their other resources to maintain the interest. For example, LSE may spend a large amount of energy on an interest they value, often to the detriment of their time, sleep, relationships, money, etc.
ESI place greater value on their resources than LSE. For ESI, resources like their money, time, sleep, etc., fall into their "inner personal space," and the ESI will be more likely to deprioritize an interest if it starts to drain these resources too much.
When solving a problem, LSE rely more heavily on their generalized past experiences than ESI. LSE are inclined to use already prepared, preformulated methods and processes to solve a problem.
When solving a problem, ESI are more inclined (than LSE) to solve it by relying predominantly on only the presently available information. Essentially, ESI will develop a process or method uniquely fitted towards the present problem, and this method is designed using the present conditions and information.
LSE are more likely (than ESI) to seek new and novel experiences rather than returning to something already lived through. They will generally only re-read a book, re-watch a movie, or revisit the same place if they have forgotten it or are hoping to learn something new from it.
ESI are more likely than LSE to use "emotional anchors" that resonate with their internal emotional condition. These emotional anchors could be a book, a movie, a place, a song, etc. ESI use these anchors to strengthen their inner emotional state and thus will repeat the experience: e.g., re-reading a book, re-watching a movie, continually going back to a place to experience the emotions associated with it.
ESI are more likely than LSE to perceive and distinguish themselves primarily through personal qualities. ESI focus on individualism more than LSE.
ESI attitude towards a specific person (more so than LSE) is based on their personal characteristics (authority, intellect, personal achievements, etc.) ESI recognize superiority of certain individuals drawing from their personal qualities
LSE, more than ESI, frequently perceives and defines themselves and other people through group associations. LSE focus on collectivism over individualism.
When LSE form opinions of others, these opinions are formed under the influence of their attitude towards the group to which the person belongs. To LSE, it is incomprehensible how it is possible to belong to two opposing groups at the same time:, i.e., "you're either with us, or with them and against us."
LSE are often able to form quicker opinions of others they have just met than ESI. This is based on the ability of LSE to draw conclusions about the person based on the groups the person belongs to; ESI are more reluctant to make these inferences.
LSE' psychic energy more often flows outwards, whereas with ESI, their psychic energy more often flows inward.
ESI' energy levels tend to improve when they're alone whereas LSE' energy levels increase when they're interacting with larger groups.
LSE' energy levels tend to decrease when they're alone whereas ESI' energy levels will decrease when they're interacting with larger groups of people.
With regards to energy levels, LSE tend to have higher energy levels than ESI.
ESI are more often focused on their thoughts and feelings where as LSE are more often focused on their surroundings.
LSE tend to be more active and initiating with others where as ESI tend to be more passive and less initiating.
ESI often have a smaller, closer network of friends where as LSE often have a wider network of friends.
LSE are often more cognizant of their outwards appearance and are thus better at presenting themselves than ESI.
ESI are generally better at concentrating on specific tasks for longer periods of time than LSE.
LSE often prefer to work with others in a team where as ESI often prefer working alone.
ESI tend to perceive events in an episodic manner, i.e., they see events evolve in discrete states rather than continuous changes. On the other hand, LSE tend to perceive events in a continuous sequence; i.e., they see events evolving fluidly rather that one state to the next.
When describing the stages of an event, LSE are more likely to focus on how stage A leads to stage B, how stage B leads to stage C, etc. ESI, on the other hand, focus more on the stages themselves without necessarily seeing or emphasizing the transitions or causes and effects of the stages to the extent that LSE do.
When describing reality, ESI are more likely to talk about the properties and structure of reality. LSE are more likely to describe reality as movements, interactions, and changes.
When developing a plan of action or process, LSE tend to see themselves as "within the process"; they are immersed in it. Often because of this, they have more difficulty managing several plans at once. On the other hand, ESI tend to place themselves "outside of the process"; they dissociate from it. For them the process or situation is something external from themselves.
When working on a project, ESI experience more discomfort (than LSE) if the project does not have a clearly delineated end-goal or result. This happens because ESI have more difficulty monitoring and understanding how the project is developing than LSE because they are outside of the process.
