{THE BASIC THREE}
.intro
{The Basic Three learnings were developed because many people who have participated in a TypeWatching workshop, did so with much enjoyment and personal insight.  Yet, often they later forget not only their four-letter preferences, but the usefulness of understanding their type in daily life.  In light of all the material covered in a workshop, there are three basic learnings that have broad application for all participants.  These are:}
.one
{1.  Validate and Learn Your Type}

.onea
{If you do not agree with all of your preferences then you must first discover and validate your complete four-letter type.  This may take some time.  Try soliciting feedback from people who know you well.  It also may help to read a different selected profile (only one) and begin to compare the two profiles.  In general, be open to feedback about your type and be aware of how you are in various situations.  These will all be clues to help you validate a true type.}
.oneb
{If you agree with your four preference results then you need to commit it to memory and then with some regularity read your portrait and other type descriptions to help you grow in understanding of its strengths and areas to which you may be blind.}
.two
{2.  J/P Information To Change Your Life<N>}
.twoa
{Two things about the Ps:}
.twoa1
{All Ps, regardless of other preferences, generate alternatives.}
.twoa2
{Help them move to closure.  Remember, Ps can more readily tell you what they don't want more quickly than what they do want, thereby, keeping their options open.}
.twob
{Two things about the Js:}
.twob1
{All Js, regardless of other preferences, "moan" (complain, yammer, or whine), especially when their schedules are interrupted.}
.twob2
{When dealing with a J, use the "Hit and Run" technique.  Give them the new data or request, then give them "moan space" or time to consider how to deal with the matter.  They will eventually work it into their new schedule, or at least, refuse you for more rational reasons than just for interrupting their schedule.}
.three
{3.  The Temperaments (A TypeWatching Shortcut)}
.threea
{While behavioral predictions can be made from any two-letter combinations of a type (e.g., EJ or IN), the Temperaments (NF, NT, SJ, SP), as described by David Keirsey and Marlyn Bates, provide the broadest and most accurate behavioral profiles.}
.threea1
{The NF Temperament is idealistic and relates interpersonally.  Their style is catalytic and they bring people and things together.}
.threea2
{The NT Temperament is a conceptualizer relating to ideas.  Their style is visionary and they are driven by competency.}
.threea3
{The SJ Temperament is structured relying on established procedures.  Their style is belonging to meaningful institutions.  They are the backbone of society.}
.threea4
{The SP Temperament is ready for what comes along and they relate well to what is happening in the moment.  Their style is being a trouble-shooter and negotiator.}
