Extraverted Sensing (Se)

Se
This is a Perceiving function which means it is used to learn new information. This is a dominant (hero) cognitive function for ESFP and ESTP personality types, and auxiliary (supporting) function for ISFP and ISTP types.
Those who use this function learn new information through their senses in real time. These types live in the present moment and readily and actively explore the physical world around them. They are usually the first to notice any new sights, sounds, smells and sensations in their environment. Se users are action-oriented and faced-paced thrill-seekers, always in search of new sensory pleasures.
Naturally, these types are drawn to physical activities such as sports, dancing and martial arts. They are usually quite physically adept, therefore most of the world's top athletes use extraverted sensing higher up in their cognitive function stack.
They are almost always good at remembering directions and many love to drive long distances as it engages this function. Extraverted sensing users naturally have great mechanical aptitude allowing them to utilize tools and have a good grasp on physics. Se types enjoy a wide variety of physical sensations and have a good appreciation for aesthetics.
Types who use extraverted sensing are very free spirited and don't like to be held back or forced to commit too soon. They work well when given the space to learn through experience and do not like to be micro-managed. They fully embrace the term "actions speak louder than words" and prefer to express themselves through doing rather than talking.
