On the 'rate yourself' page, where can I find the same kind of information for sensing and thinking? I found the feeling and intuition comparisons and exercises quite useful.
I'm thrilled you found them useful! I didn't include Sensing and Thinking because those are lower down in both of these types' patterns, AND because I didn't want to post too much copyrighted material and thus dishonor the authors.
Additional exercises such as you request are from the genius of Gary & Margaret Hartzler: "Functions of Type: Activities for Developing the Eight Jungian Functions."
If you visit Amazon via one of my book links, I would get affiliate credit for the purchase and I would be most gratified.
A good way to emphasize the fact that I have strong Fe vs Fi is that my ISFP husband and INFP friend have both mentioned that they are impressed with my ability to talk to strangers, while they are completely stumped. It appears I tend to 'emcee' the conversations; they say I look comfortable, while they find it frightening. This is surprising for me to hear considering I am such an introvert. I just find myself slipping into the role of host, it appears. (Funny because that was my first job, a hostess at a restaurant.
How interesting! I had trouble understanding Fi for a long time, and was always conflicted because I was sure I was really good at Fe. I think I've come to see that, while I care deeply about people, and always try to be aware of my impact on them, I only WANT to be really good with Fe! I found the Fi exercises easier, though still sometimes tricky.
What really surprised me was the gut reaction I had in opposition to Ni. I found myself annoyed, and dismissive, with many of the exercises. I'm not sure why, but I loved the star exercise. Could this be completed with another function? Thank you for this page, by the way. It is very helpful!

Enjoy!
I would have to say that INFP's also value symbols.
It shows how different things are related to each other and how one thing can be like another. It becomes a free association extravaganza.
