People who are interested in psychology on the internetThere is a tendency to agree with the assertion (=Fi) that "one must protect their own limited, one-time life."。
For example, on Twitter, such claims receive a lot of "likes," but let's think about it a little more deeply.
Can you get by in the world just by protecting yourself (Fi) and not caring about what others think?
What if your neighbor is also using Fi?Their opposing viewpoints (=Fi) clash and they fight.Wouldn't that be the case?
in fact, To take care of and protect yourself (Fi), you also need to care about others (Fe).You should also realize that.
However, on the other hand,If you only focus on caring about others (Fe), you won't be able to fulfill your own desires (Fi).So, what should we do? To resolve this dilemma, I will introduce Hegel's dialectic.
On Hegel's dialectic
Dialectics
A theory that eliminates the contradictions within itself through its own development, thereby reaching a newly integrated unity.
quotation New Selected Japanese Dictionary
Hegel's DialecticIt consists of three components.
- beProposition (thesis = positive)
- It contradicts or denies it.The opposite proposition (antithesis)
- And, essentially, 1 and 2Syntheses (combined propositions)
for example,I want to drink alcohol (thesis)but,The conflict of having to drive home (antithesis)When it occurs,A solution that satisfies both of these needs is a non-alcoholic beverage (synthesis).

Similarly,Taking care of yourself (Fi)とTreating people with care (Fe)too,Hegel's DialecticLet's try to solve it that way!
- thesis: Value your own (one and only life) wishes (more than others)
- antithesis: To value others (more than oneself)
- synthesis：Caring for others (Fe) → It comes back to you (Fi) → Caring for others is caring for yourself
To develop the ability to handle anything, it's important to synthesize different theses.
It would be great to integrate various cognitive functions and develop the ability to handle anything.
