The Farsighted/Carefree Dichotomy

Introduction

Carefree / Farsighted is one of the 15 Reinin dichotomies. More research is needed to fully understand this dichotomy.

Typical Characteristics

Carefree

1. Inclined to solve problems by primarily using that information which is 'at hand'. Accordingly, their solutions are likely to be particular to that situation.
2. The search for the solution is implied in the answer.
3. "You cannot prepare for everything."

Farsighted

1. Inclined to solve problems by primarily using that information which they possess through knowledge and experience. Accordingly, their solutions are likely to be of a general nature.
2. The search for the solution is explicit in the answer.
3. "It is best to prepare in advance."
