INFJ Jumper

What, exactly, is the difference between a Standard  INFJ  and the subtype  Objective Personality  has chosen to call a " Jumper "? In what way will respecting  Introverted Thinking  over  Extraverted Feeling  affect the traits and behaviors of the  INFJ ? This article will unravel the hazy intricacies of the INFJ Jump. It will take you all the way from take-off to landing. You say "Jump" and we say "where to?" and "where from?" and possibly also "how far?"... Where did we Land? Ok, so we've made the Jump.
