ESTP

ESTPs lead with Extraverted Sensing (Se), which means they are extraverted towards their immediate  concrete environment and are energized by physical activity. They are naturally assertive as they don’t  normally think much about the future or of the long-term consequences of their decisions, instead preferring  to take life as it comes and experience things on the fly. They can be opportunistic and hedonistic, and they  feel they can adapt to most situations and make things up as they go, trusting in their instincts and their wits  to get them through problems. 

Their auxiliary function is Introverted Thinking (Ti), which compels them to work out problems deductively  inside their own head, performing mental calculations and methodically analyzing their own reasoning and  trains of thought. They are not inclined to trust what has been worked out by other people without critiquing  it themselves, and they view facts and data as tools to measure the accuracy of their own logic.  

Their tertiary function is Extraverted Feeling (Fe), which represents their growing awareness of the feelings  and values of other people. ESTPs can learn to “read the room” and to play to an audience, and can develop  a superficial knowledge of the emotions of other people, although they often lack a deeper understanding  as they are largely out of touch with their own feelings and may need outside help to get in touch with them.  With maturity, they may become more considerate of other people and of the impact of their words and  actions on those they care for. 

Their inferior function is Introverted Intuition (Ni), which is their hidden desire for long-term planning and  for deeper meaning in life. They may find themselves attracted to symbols, ideology and to philosophical  musings, and wish for their carefree lifestyle to service (or be served by) a greater purpose or meaning.  They can benefit from interaction with people who have stronger intuition and are able to show them the  benefits and consequences of caring more about the future. 

ESTPs are the quintessential action-oriented pragmatists of any group they're part of. They thrive on  immediate results and have an innate ability to navigate through chaos and uncertainty. ESTPs are at their  best in the thick of things, where they can use their sharp observational skills and quick reflexes to adapt to  changing circumstances. They often prefer practical work that has clear and immediate outcomes, such as  mechanics, sports, or emergency services. 

Their approach to life is straightforward and grounded in reality. They make decisions based on what is  happening right now, using their senses and a good deal of common sense. ESTPs are not ones to dwell on  theories or abstract concepts; instead, they are doers, often finding the most direct route to getting things  done.

In social settings, ESTPs are dynamic and engaging. They are generally confident, sometimes even to the  point of taking risks others might shy away from. This trait can make them excellent entrepreneurs or  leaders in fields that require decisive action and the ability to think on one's feet. 

While ESTPs are known for their adaptability, they also have a competitive streak. They love challenges  and are motivated by opportunities to prove their mettle. They work well under pressure and are not afraid  to take the lead in crisis situations.
