More socionics stuff

New at socionics.com are the MB types real 'need'. As follows:

Every person has a hidden agenda. This agenda often governs one's intentions and behaviour. People are often unaware of its origin, but can always feel its significance. Some people are more affected by it than other people.

Every type requires an optimal condition in which it can function properly. If such a condition does not exist, a person will normally attempt to create it. However, due to the nature of the hidden agenda, if and when the optimal condition is reached, the person will occasionally put themselves in a situation where the stability of this condition is threatened.

There are eight such agendas/optimal conditions:

ENTp, ESTp => to be loved
INTj, INFj => to be healthy
ESFj, ESTj => to be perfect
ISFp, INFp => to understand
ENFj, ENTj => to be wealthy
ISTj, ISFj => to believe
ESFp, ENFp => to know
INTp, ISTp => to love

The ability to recognise these hidden agendas in people is quite helpful in type identification. Moreover, these agendas are also directly connected with some personal problems an individual might have.

**********
I am an INTJ and have a great need to be physically healthy. But thats do to bad cards healthwise from day 1. I can relate to all of those needs.
Although socionics has a lot of good theoretical and practical expansions on the 16 MB types I personally hidden agenda is bunk.

What do you think?
