They are predisposed to feel rather than think.
Others are very strong, they are able to withstand adverse conditions and expect others to do so.
These people generally tend to think rather than feel. Most women fall in the previous category, whereas most men fall in the latter category. This is stereotypical view, but there is some empirical evidence to back it up.
But there is some women who think, and some men who feel. In any case, a feelers ought to cultivate strength and thinkers kindness.
Ideal cases, which actually don't exist but then help us understand things better, a feeler would be too kind, and a thinker too cruel.
The reason is thinkers tend to be without sensation, anesthesia, and feeling types are their opposites, they tend to be sensitive, some of them too sensitive.
A feeler therefore ought to learn to be tough and thinker ought to learn to be kind.
If one succeeds along this path, one becomes tough kind, or kindly tough. I think this is one of paths that end suffering and afford us the state in which we are all familiar with when we see it, that carefree state of a child, or pastoral nomad who just ended a long day, empty: there is nothing going on with him, serene and beautiful.
