A personalty question
A personalty question
Of the following, which of the two personality types do you generally align with?
When approaching a given situation or idea, do you typically focus on details first, or start with the bigger picture, filling in details second?
Edit for clarity: I'm not asking anyone to strictly identify with one or the other. It's a question of where on the spectrum between them you fall.
I am more of a big picture person and my partner is more of a details first person.
That is a false dichotomy. Every situation has unique context.
Blunt delivery, but I agree. We've been programmed by pop psychology to think our personality traits fit in neat categories, but in reality it's all grey area

It seems like you are missing the point of what the other user was trying to say.
So I'll give you my post answer here instead, since it fits just as well:
It Depends On Each Situation.
I might lean more towards a big picture person for some issues but more towards details first for other issues. My current state (health, fatigue, emotions) can also influence these so that I would lean more towards one end of your spectrum in a certain situation but then I might lean towards the other end in the same situation but, say, I'm now not fatigued or maybe I'm starving.
It depends.
