INFJ Careers That Make Money | The 100K INFJ (Part 1) 

What INFJ Career have you taken on AND/OR want to take on in the future? What are some lessons learned?

to all INFJ here.....guys its nice to meet u all here , stay safe INFJ nation

Woa this is super weird. I just found out that I’m an INFJ and suddenly everything makes sense. It’s so fun to find many people that think the way I do and struggle with the same problems I’ve been struggling my whole life. I listen to you and I feel like you know me since my entire life.

I'm an INFJ, tested. And I definitely want stability and money. When you have nobody paying for your candies you need money. Those who say "oh I don't want money" they depend on someone else.

This is the most valuable content for INFJs I have seen so far. I don't have to be a counsellor or social worker..there are OTHER ways. "Stop comparing yourself to others".

I’m a $100K+/yr. INFJ. It took some serious self-evaluation and self/professional development, but here I am.

I love how you mentioned that with INFJs who are willing, working for ourselves can be optimal because workplaces require you to fit into their structure instead of creating your own. Love that Wenzes. Thank you 🙌🏾🙏🏾

As an INFJ, I cared more about having a fullfilling job without loads of overtime. I sacrificed lots of money to be at home with my kiddos more. It payed off and I am at my first 6 figure salary in public service. However, it took a LOT of time and loads of student debt. If I could do it all over again I would have went into starting my own business.

start from 9:50 for INFJ wanna survive in the corporate world, good content but better be short

It's scary how awfully I feel understood. you just validated my decision on quitting my last job! This crave for wanting to grow!

I got to know that I'm an INFJ-T just 2 years ago and I suddenly started feeling seen and understood, atleast by people of my own clan. That atleast I'm not the only one who's been going through all of this, that everything that I'm or everything that's been happening to me is totally normal. I feel validated. Feeling leftout, striking in of depression and anxiety whenever I'm pulled into any drama caused by others, not having much friends, not enjoying crowded places or enjoying my own company, Having unexplainable visions, feeling like something wrong is gonna happen before I go out and then feeling like I shouldn't go out, Having nightmares/visions before anything wrong happens. With time, I'm trying to cope up and getting to know myself more and more with each passing day. I wanted to be a doctor but suddenly felt like not doing it anymore. I want to be a professor and contribute my fair share in making the society a little better place to live, by educating the upcoming generations about the changes that we go through, about how knowing about our personality types can actually make a big difference and atleast put a coma to our sufferings if not a full stop. We can do anything if we join hands and accept ourselves completely. I'm 21 y/o and I'm from India. Mental health in India is a taboo and I want to change that perspective first and entering the education field will help me do so. I want everyone to feel seen and to not feel leftout. If not anything then this!

27 yo and still dont know what I really wanna do, but this video gives me some motivation. Thanks Wenzes!

I’m going through a really tough time feeling rejected and unappreciated by my team and I kept thinking that there was something wrong with me. This video is so empowering. Thank you for reminding who I am and what I’m capable of doing!

ive been in management since 2012. I'm not a huge fan of it, but it pays the bills. My boss wanted to promote me to something even higher because I am good at what I do. BUT during our developement plan he wanted me to develop my "leadership" skills by being more high energy and talk more. I said "alright, gotta stop ya right there. I've done the leadership classes and honestly they're mostly teaching you manipulation techniques and I'm not about that. I'm not going to be high energy nor will I be a gossiping drama queen. I have two ears and one mouth for a reason. I listen because our employees have people talking at them all day long, few listen to them. That's why I'm effective. Putting on the show of being a stereotypical leader doesn't work for me because its not sustainable long term". The look on his face was priceless. He just doesn't get it. Unfortunately for me, ppl in management tend to be narcissistic types and I'm just not like that. They mistaken introversion for social anxiety which are totally different.

28 and I stretched myself so thin, giving my all and doing everything employers asked of me, I worked really hard and long hours, then lost my job in October because the owner decided to hit the breaks due to the pandemic, and concentrate on a different branch of the business. I did everything at that job, from cleaning to counseling to website management and so on. Now I am depressed because it seems that most employers don't even listen to what I say during interviews (among other things) and even situations where they understood the exact opposite of what I've said (i.e. I said I want my next job to be where I spend at least the next 5 years so I can grow and develop myself with and within the company, then I was told that they don't want me because they want someone who wants to be with them long term). Your video gives me a bit of hope. Now I just need to find a job and a way out of the depressive episode. I really want to do more, to grow, learn, teach and counsel within a company (or school/uni/ngo), but it feels like no one wants to give me a chance. Sorry for the long comment, I needed to get this out of my system.

This was soo empowering! Just finishing business school now, I’ve often doubted myself and lost my confidence when people are implying or directly telling me that I need to be willing to sacrifice my health and personal life in order to have a successful corporate career, but at the same time I also DID bring a lot of value to my internships and apprenticeships (and people recognize that!), just not in the sense that I could regularly work a ton of overtime without quickly burning out. I realised with this video that I DO know my value deep down and just need to find the right fit for me and be confident in my own value even though it’s not the same as other people’s 🥰

I have been thinking a lot about this video. I loved the principle that you taught : when you do a good job in the corporate world, you develop the self esteem and confidence to have similar results when you start your own business. If you never give 100% to your corporate job, you'll not reap 100% from your entrepreneur world. Agree?

What if ur actually bad with people?😅 like I want to help ppl more than anything..but at the same time..ppl scare me alot and my anxiaty is crazy..so I'm kinda stuck

Growing up in a really competitive environment since I was small forced me to do better just like everyone else and everytime when I'm really struggling I would feel disappointed in myself. But you really thought me that I do not have to compare myself with others. I don't have to be insecure with other people's ability where I just can't do it like them, to hate myself why I'm so slow at learning things, to be frustrated when others can catch up a lot faster than me. I just have to observe myself and keep improving myself with my own pace and keep being patient on my personal growth. To believe that I do have a worth just as everyone else and I just have to find that in order to bring it up on the table when it's needed. Thank you so much for this wisdom, really appreciate it.

I have a hard time presenting my value in interviews with bigger organizations. A lot of them expected me to answer ridiculously detailed questions on the spot and my head just doesn't think in detail. My talent is more inclined to the bigger picture by creating connections and systems to simplify scattered information and make it easy to access. I don't know how to present this in interviews with HR when all they want is another clone of people they already have.

Best channel for INFJs. Your content is next level!

@Wenzes thank you for standing up! I feel like you’re my soul sister. And it’s very encouraging that you are making a living talking about what is important to you. You’re right, we don’t have many obvious INFJs as role models.

Relentless INFJ making six figures since 2005 (except in 2019) Information Technology & Cybersecurity aren't going away...and if you can follow the patterns in the stock market...🤑🤑🤑

I needed this today. I work in a media company in the sphere of Content. I didn't enjoy content creation as much and quickly realised that I needed to get promoted to a manager role ASAP. As time passed, I began to understand the difficulties Content Managers have when it comes to planning, organising and executing, and so started working on RPA (Robotic Process Automation) systems that can help my team members do their jobs more effectively and efficiently. A few months ago, my systems caught the eye of my Regional VP and now I am full-time building these systems to help the team's performance. The issue I am having now is burnout. What used to be a side project to help me do my work better is now in demand and expectations are high. I find myself in a sink or swim moment: If this works out, I'll be rolling in it while doing something I enjoy, that's helping people and can be respected. Or there's the cliff. Wish me luck 😅

Was going to make 200k/yr as a medical doctor and then my soul cried out in pain. Would not recommend either. Now I'm in debt and unemployable

I love this talk. It makes complete sense to me, especially the part about following the people who value you. Seems like common sense,and I think we INFJ tend to do that, but we get swayed by what other people's values and lose sight of our own value.

I just watched another one of your videos about INFJ's and dating. And, I'm just so glad you make this content. It's been a long time coming, but I've finally found it.

Wow! This really came in handy. Thank you so much for the video. This is like the best and most practical INFJ career video I've seen on the internet.

OMG! This is a life changing video! I've always had some of the things you've said in the back of my mind, but you're just confirming it for me and making me excited about it. In the IT world, I shine when creating systems or coming up with interesting ways of presenting easily-understandable data and user interface, but sadly I'm also stuck in maintaining these systems, boring paperwork and have no way to use my ability to connect with people. Your video inspires me to search for ways to ONLY do the things I find interesting and easy and especially to make it clear during the interview process what I will and will not do for the job and what I can bring to the table. I think I'm going to go for manager work in startups or new departments, because like you I think that's where I'm good at...

This brings back memories of good lessons I learned in previous jobs that ended up making me a better teacher.

This was a very liberating video. Thank you for making it.

This makes a lot of sense in my career. Thank you 😊.. Never work with somebody who dont appreciate your value 💯

Your channel is just so amazing. I hope people like me can find out about your channel sooner than me.

I love your supportive energy, it was like listening to my own story. Very helpful Wenzes, thank you.

You gave such a precise explanation, covering most of the possible points that I can now think much better with more clarity before choosing a profession

I just knew I’m an INFJ after finding your channel! You made me understand myself very well, I always thought there’s something wrong with me and why am I different and so complex. Now I know it’s a personality type and I’m not alone.

You are a blessing for all INFJ who are feeling lost. Normally, we tend to underestimate ourselves because we compare ourselves to sensors who are good at details. We don't have the opportunity to showcase our strongest points such as planning, solving complex problems, and creating systems. And we don't have the proof to show people. So, it really requires confidence first.

WOW, WHATA LESSON, THANKS !!!!!!!! GOOD THAT YOU DISCOVERED THIS EARLY IN YOUR LIFE.

love your channel!! i really needed an INFJ life coach!

Thank you so much for your videos! I’m about to separate from the military and pursue a career investing in my artistry through film/music/writing. And I’m Nervous but mostly excited because I know my souls purpose and life’s mission is to Heal Teach and Empower and I know As long as I follow my gut I will be able live on my own terms without constant worry about security. This man video really cemented my resolve and I’m infinitely grateful. Thank you again so much!!!

Thanks for that encouragement, I actually started thinking I was not good at what I do on my channel, the viewers are still few, but now I know time will make me do better, thanks to you

I’m a CNA/caregiver but going to school to become a psychological researcher for dementia and a victims advocate

ive been doing sales type work for the last 3 years and literally have watched the life and enthusiasm therein be sucked away.... Art and Acting are the pathways for me, dont need to make it big. Just enough to leave a positive impact and make enough money to raise a family...

Thank you for your insights and energy. You are a joy to learn from.

i have a job similar to yours in derivatives, and am watching your video this monday morning, lol 😊 You describe weird parts of my personality i do not ever share with anyone. in fact, felt ashamed of until ten years ago or so. A divorce and the pandemic have accelerated my quest for self knowledge and acceptance. Your videos add so much to my self acceptance and realizing that i deserve what i've worked for and looking for ways to infj my way into a major move for the latter part of my career. Many thanks!

This is excellent, thank you!

I am so glad I found this video, it explains so well what has happened in my life and where I am now. Thank you for your service Wenzes, your words have helped me more than you can imagine 🙏

Wenzes you are a GIFT! Thank you, you INFJ whisperer!

18:15 "I want to get out into the big world" I am 18 and that's exactly how I'm feeling. And everything you said afterwards is exactly like what's happening to me and I feel like your channel is a gift for me. I wanted to be an architect but because of the situations, I'm studying IT now and I feel like I have lost my passion. But after listening to your words, makes me realize it's not like that at all. And I think I am going to make the most out of my time as IT student too.

I never tell people how much money I make it's none of their business whether I'm proud of it or not I just say I had a really good month I really needed it thank you.

this is a breath of fresh air.. thank you

Carpenter. Get to use creativity, math, pictures, hands, it's logical. Get to stay in my head and be at peace all day, not too much human interaction. I've been very happy building things for the last 4 years.

I'm so happy I stumbled in your channel, I didn't think much about my personality when choosing my career. I was definitely neglecting my creative passions when I didn't have an outlet outside of my job and I always feeling unfulfilled

Great interview! It changed my perspective on certain things beyond measure!! You have great self awareness too which is the foundation for your confidence. I’m still discovering myself though

Congratulations Wenzes! You deserve it!

Congrats for the 10K month - be proud of yourself👍

Super, this is insane. I found out I'm an INFJ recently and I'm a consultant! The power of the future!

This video gave me a lot of helpful tips. I also love how articulate you are and hope to improve in this area as being verbally inarticulate is one of my biggest insecurity/weakness as an INFJ-T.

Best video Wenzesss

This is definitely my favorite video so far because I've been feeling stuck about this

I love that thanks ! In my 23 , Exciting with the future moving to Canada from HK. New life new career. I want the best for everyone here !! Get money and value both! We don’t need to choose from between! We have so much potential, actually all personality types do, but we are so willing to examine it. I know there’s no other way out except believing in yourself.

Hey Wenzes, thank you for sharing your path. I watched your channel a few years ago and saw the big transformation through the different eras. Congrats on your happiness and power over your life. I'm starting to transform mine as well after years of depression with the responsibilities on my shoulders. I just got consolidated recently and decided to sincerely prioritize myself from now on. I wish you my best for your growth and looking forward to the next part! Will you have a chance to talk about investing in financial assets from the perspective of INFJ in the future? Lately, I'm trying to educate myself about this and found out that actually, our cognitive functions could help a lot if we would like to grow as an investor or a venture capital. We just need to connect the dots existing.

thank you very much it helps a lot for me and whenever I watch your videos, feels like you are my career coach

You put these together very well.

Worth watching! Very unique video on career for INFJ. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you for this great video! Makes a lot of sense to me! I´m becoming a big fan of your videos! :)

Thank you Wenzes

wow....I have been a math tutor , for 20 years but I have many skills in several area. you hit the nail on the the head, and drove it home...

I just realized my personal type was INFJ. I tend to help but end up to be betray. If I tend to let it be, sometimes I got trapped. To be precise, I prefer to trust my instinct & self intuition. If I achieve my financial target, I got lost what to do to make the rite things that anything make things better. In my reason I feel better if I'm sharing my achievements, but sometimes other would says " not yet grow up " , " waster " , then I realised I shud decided to believe my ability , I can turn day to night, night to day . And to be clear, the purposes of INFJ lived in this world is " Pretend To Be Poor & Lay Low ". If you didn't liked criticism for INFJ , then show them like u re not doing anything. PEOPLE SAY YOU LAZY PEOPLE WILL SAYS OVER CONFIDENTIAL PEOPLE SAY YOU ARE LOSER DIDNT SEEK FOR JOBS. This are the typical situation where INFJ will be faced. So the solutions is : Care about yourself. Don't seek attention by Sacrificing your value and ability as well as pride. You will get the answer those who come without our attention mean that the one to be faith with.

Thank you Ms Wenzes!! Got it 😍

I am not even infj but this was very helpful!! Thank you for sharing your experience

A manager of mine actually thought I was being rude when I told them documentation wasn't something I wanted to do. It didn't fit his idea of the ideal employee. And neither did I, for that matter.

Thank you this got me thinking stuff. Helped a lot, cheers.

thank you so much. I needed this

Great video! Thanks

Bro i just decided to explore the 3d visualisations with this video and your channel will be a great help!!

One of the more educational videos

Thank you for being so much open about the hardships you faced so that, we can truly understand the situation and the harsh realities of this world. But could you suggest us some specific jobs, in the corporate world were you think people like us might flourish.

i aspire so much to be like you. I'm an INFJ with social anxiety but I'm really ambitious deep inside and want to do youtube someday.

I'm an INFJ-A and I found I quite good at advertising. At work, I was assigned in production (digital art) and already doing it well. After a year's worth of company attempts to breach into facebook ads ( this was 10 years ago), I quickly put together a video with my own vision. It turned the account from bleeding money everywhere to bringing in $10,000 / day. It ran continuously for four years and the ones who later bought the company ran it again. But because the back-end weren't the same people, it slowly faded away. I confirm that this isn't an abuse to get ahead; these are the skills we're naturally equipped with - bring order to chaos.

Wow.. I can relate to this video on so many levels like what the hell. Since I started my career in finance I always had this long term goal that I want to retire from the corporate world by the time I turn 50 so that I can actually do people oriented jobs like working in an charity and discover myself through art. And I thought of using my corporate job to get there by earning money and investing it so that I can retire faster. But I kept struggling with the fact that my job wasn't meaningful nor added anything to society and I kept questioning myself. Also my bosses used to compare me with other colleagues saying that I lacked those detail oriented skills. I thought a lot about quitting and getting into psychology to help people or becoming a coach. Until I got hired in my new company. In this company I can really connect to my bosses and I can see my manager wants to see me win. She sees potential in me and wants me to develop. They are not scared to give me responsabilities saying that I had both technical skills and interpersonal skills. That I can put myself in other people's shoes and make them comfortable. And now I am working on projects where I create systems and procedures taking into account information from all of our departments. And to my surprise I am actually good at this and I love working on these complex subjects. I thought I lacked a lot of these corporate skills but they saw my potential and even though I still want to get into a people oriented job I love what I am doing right now. In the end I know that once I feel like I've reached my limits there I will quit this job. Because I want to keep growing and get close to my goals. I believe that what INFJs want in the end is to feel valued and to help others and we can do that in so many settings without having to compromise ourselves. You're brilliant Wenzes ;)

I'm standing up in this movement

Im an INFj Working as fitness personal trainer and i love it :)

The three things that "they" don't want you to discuss but effect your life the most are money, religion, and politics.

As an INFJ people love me at m workplaces and they are devastates when I leave. ❤

OMG - I am so inspired by you! I studied Acturial Science (Math nerd) and ended up climbing corporate ladder for 15 years in asset management. Portfolio management, coding and derivatives 😁 I was NOT detail-oriented so I was terrible with admin and trade processing but as soon as an unfamiliar problem came about I would somehow come up with coherent solutions and everyone - including me - would be like "where did that come from?" I also realised I was excellent with originating quantitative/economic research (although I would need to rely on more diligent colleagues to push me for the parts requiring significant data collection/pre-processing) Now as I grow my business, I am realising that corporate clients actually value my out-of-the-box solutions more than I ever gave myself credit for in the past. It's been a long road. I still enjoy finance /derivatives so I am sure I will always remain in the industry but I nurture my interests in psychology, astrology, spirituality and general self-development very intentionally in my spare time. Being in nature heals me and I do my best work alone. I am also strict about not being pulled back into the rat race again. It was not a happy place for me!

money doesn't guarantee happiness, but poverty can guarantee misery

Why Do I "Inspire" Others To achieve Things, Yet I Am So Unaccomplished? I've Literally Inspired Friends To Become A Doctor (by telling her I was going to school to be a PA), A best-Selling Writer (by relentlessly getting her to not give up on getting with this guy in college who liked me but she didn’t know. I convinced him to give her a third chance and they ended up getting and staying together and he has the money & connections to fund her book), Start Their Business (when I joined my friend’s MLM that she was in for years, she finally took it seriously and went from $50.00 checks to now $1,000s in 3 months), yet I never accomplished anything….I never became a PA, I married a loser, and my business is going nowhere 😩 What’s going on with me? Why can’t the luck I bring others happen for me??

I really connected with what you were saying. I feel so validated haha.

Thank you this helped me so much

100k INFJ workin as a Private Military Contractor... would not recommend.

I guess I'm more of the stereotypical infj for career. I'm in Public Health and am getting joint Masters in Public Health and Social Work currently. This work is challenging and innovative and the grant I'm currently on is all about that and finding the best ways to end an epidemic in my area. Fe is super valuable in this role and it really helped me find mentors and opportunities. My vision and conviction for the future of the field I'm in was also a big factor why I got this position. I doubt I'll ever make 100k in my area, but im extremely happy with the job I was able to get. Im hoping to diversity in the future and create online content and resources for accessible and evidence-based health info. I'm excited to grow and see where the future takes me!

Hi there. Pls, don't take me wrong. But, I madly love u!. You are way more helpful than my personal therapist. Tnx, a million.

Listen to this makes me deeply feel small and even more lost... And I hate myself for it. I feel trapped in my life. I don't know where to go and what to do. Every direction I took ended in some kind of failure. I am lost and I am tired.

thanks for your inspiration

Needed to hear this! One step at a time, manifesting my goal for stable income as an artist. Thank you!

Hi I'm an infj and I'm learning so much about it I would very much like to meet other like minded people like myself

5:45 sooo on point. One has to be able to live out one's self. But ya, the bills have to be paid too.

I love money, I am into trading .... But only to serve the life of my friends .... and my never ending creative explorings :)

WOW if only I had seen this before!
