That's so true! I'm also an INFJ and I always listen to people but some of the time I missunderstand at the same time. In most ocations people don't understand me when I talk
As an INFJ, what bothers me most about myself lately is romantic relationships, because it’s completely true that I ‘don’t settle for less than true love,’ but that makes the experience VERY rare, and falling for someone who only wants a casual relationship or is dodgy about commitment really, genuinely tears me up - and of course, being a rare personality type, makes my experience a really lonely one.
I feel you my good friend...I was left my ex fiance about a year ago and its still tough. What probably should happen for the both of us is to expand our idea of quote-unquote traditional relationships.😊
@@BentheGeek-wm4mf I know this was a few weeks ago but as another INFJ I had come to the conclusion that I wouldn't thrive in a traditional relationship because of how intense and idealistic I can be. I always thought it was a "me" thing, I never thought there could be an actual group of ppl with the same experiences. Do you think INFJs need to be in relationships with other INFJs?
It is quite staggering how true this video rings for me (and I'm sure all of you fellow INFJs in the comments). The perfectionism aspect really hits home for me because I push myself extremely hard to be my most ideal self in academia and in my emerging profession, which is oddly enough, existential and humanistic therapy 😅
Another good job for an INFJ is a counterintelligence agent. You work mainly alone and require all the skills mentioned in the video. You may not like what you learn but you will feel alive.
Hello INFJs👋 I've been struggling alot for past some years due to the same reasons mentioned in this video. Those are- trying to be perfect, idealism (My beliefs are getting hurt, and it has changed everything), overthinking (in relationships and overall) and people please / over- empathetic. You should be really careful with these things. Don't think about being perfect, don't overthinking (never-ever), you are good, don't worry too much, just take a pause and life life. All the best ✌️👍
I used to think I was enfp but I was just lying on tests..once I really paid attention to my actions and how I truly relate to others and my interactions I was actually an INFJ
Nop!...you still a ENFP,you are who you are ,you can fake it 😂😂😂....i personally find it super annoying that this videos and test think they got me pin down just because they get somethings right 🖖.
@@kenjikyochi2348 actually, you can fake who you are on an online test. I already know how to manipulate this shit to get an estp result, doesn't mean I will magically become an estp.
There’s actually a video out there explaining the relationship between introversion/extroversion and percievement/judgement. Basically, it’s extremely easy to confuse the two because if you are an infj, you’re an introverted judger, which means you’re an extroverted perceiver. You make judgements within your own mind, but perceive openly when it comes to interactions with others
I was determined to be an INFJ back in ‘85 as part of a sales training class. It was an eye opener for me and armed with that knowledge as a younger man, I understood who I was and what my capabilities were. This allowed me to leverage my “advocate” skills to persuade and move others to my point of view. I was able to become a close friend to many senior execs among my customers as well as the rank & file engineers who wrote the orders. Now retired, I tend to sit back and listen more, let others talk and put themselves out there. I constantly gather data and seek alternatives so I can fully analyze decisions I need to make. I’ve also been a musician for almost 60 years and will be until I die. I’ve played in numerous bands over the years and continue playing into my senior years. Some would think I’m weird but I just view the world differently.
I didn't know My personality type was so rare I find myself being not given certain chances and opportunity because of misjudgements or being misunderstood or seen as a threat life can seem so uncertain sometimes
I am INTJ but I first thought myself to be INFJ... I tend to be known as counsellor type among friends... But then again, my tests show otherwise. I did many many tests and all showed me as INTJ. So yeah, hello..
I’ve taken the test more times than I can count and every single time I’ve gotten INFJ soooo I guess I have to put my “oh this is a load of crap” to the side. 😬
I was a turbulent INFJ for many years, and am now, mostly the assertive type. Outside of wishing I didn't feel so misunderstood by most people, I LOVE being an INFJ!
I am a powerful INFJ lol... I believe one of the best quotes for all INFJs is "We feel the universe! This obviously comes with some issues lol ***stay strong and beautiful everyone ***👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
"Do to others as you would have them do to you" that sure surprised me! I actually really like the motto "Dont do unto others what you dont want them do unto you" :O. Well im not sure if i am an INFJ but this, I can relate with.
This video honestly described me like it knows me all my life, it's so fascinating to see a video which you and the people that have the same personality relates to, thank you for making this wonderful and helpful video, this made me know myself more ❤😊
I know counselor comes up repeatedly as an ideal career, but I disagree strongly with that. We are compassionate, sure, and great listeners. However, we also tend to take on the emotions of those around us, and we feel deeply when others are sad. A counselor would be too exhausting on a day to day basis. We also would only like this role if we actually help others and they do succeed. If we coach others and there is no improvement, or a refusal to improve, we could end up doing the "INFJ Door Slam" on our clients. I have been in my ideal role for 20 years - IT Support Manager. I get to solve complex problems, develop processes that help everyone, communicate creative solutions, document technical things, and teach others. I also get to mentor my team to be their best selves. It's the best of both worlds, being able to work alone and help and teach. I never see that come up as an ideal career, and it's so surprising to me. I hope others, who are younger watching this video, don't lock themselves into careers where they are only giving of themselves because this can lead to absolute exhaustion.
Infj and indigo child personality is so rare..and not everything which is rare is a good thing..but basically this two combos makes me really really spiritual person! Hey at the end we are all one equal energy and making a supreme source of power and compassion! We will make it..we will get through this!❤
One time me and my friend were guessing what roles characters in pur favourite shows were as i had never seen her favorite and vise versa. She guessed the antagonist and some villians but that was about it. Once it was my turn i guessed almost every character in detail, for example, i guessed one of them "thought that they were helping the characters being a good guy but in reality they weren't. " she looked at me when we were done and asked if i was lying about not seeing the show. I was laughing the whole time because i never loose this game with other friends
Everybody wants to claim themselves as an infj because they want to be a psychic empath, but I would say everyone is psychically empathic Shades of Gray
Very interesting!! I sorta have imposter syndrome with being an INFJ bc its apparently so rare and Im like really? I end up taking the quiz every few years and end up here. I also work as a graphic designer! Also how is it so rare and yet so many people are this personality type lmao I think we may need to reevaluate those numbers.
well, everyone watching this could technically be part of the small percentage, if its only 2% of the US population then it could be over a million plus ppl, so maybe we all just gathered here haha😂
For the most part, this video sounds true, but I have two small issues. Around 0:29, it is said that INFJ personality is associated with idealistic optimism. This may be more true for INFJ-A, but not for INFJ-T. Second, at around 4:30, you may have mistakenly said INFP rather than INFJ. Otherwise, I think you did great on the video, the information sounds well-researched and mostly true to me.
Both INFPs and INFJs are known as being very idealistic. The difference is that idealism is the core of who INFPs are. For INFJs, they have a strong sense of morality, but interpersonal relationships are more valuable
Take your kid to church… You may not be a christian but he can, and he will grow up with morals and dignity. Look at todays society and tell me with a straight face that you want your kid to be like this lost generation because that is what will happen.
I disagree in that we do not care about what others think. We literally do not follow the crowd. This was a good video but there many things that I’d disagree with and I usually agree with the INFJ videos
@create306 It is highly effective and Science is backed by personal dollars so at this point, I trust my BS and MS is Psychology and my personal experience with the exam. I do not need Science to help me figure out that the exam is stellar and telling. I have also countered science and have waited for them to change things that were clearly b.s. Relying solely on science rendered to you by others isn’t smart but I actually studied Psychology. 🤷🏽♀️
@@numerologicatarot3333MBTI is not very accurate at all. Your basing off of your own singular experience which is fine but it is not replicated for everyone. Use MBTI as an indicator, not as a black and white reference point.
I have not controll if I am a Infj, but I reconise my self a lot. I have also ADD, so some of my thoughs may have with that to do. I interpreters that Infj is a person as not anxious to much, yes overthinking some times what a person meant, but for the most time "we" know directly. I personly (moore then in a real fantasi like be a Hollywood star or something like that, fantasis that we know is just fantasis, nothing we aim for) have never struggled to be perfekt, becos I am not the center in my ideal thoughs, it is about good things for all of us, or to solv a isue to the better, a ideal world (even if I til full understand it is a utopi, but towards it good enough). I know also some people find me a little bit different then others, but I havent care of that, even though some times it have me to be a little sad or wounder why. But I have never though "I have to change myself". Most have been friends male partners who not can controll me, and have been worried that Im gona infect theres girl friend 😄. I have not eigher cared so much about grade when I studie, I wanted to learn as much as I could. Maybee this is becos my ADD, I have solutions in my head for problems in work situation, but the other want to solv problems with metods that have t solv the problem before. I m get astonished, but it isnt since maybee the last 10 years I have understand that they dont thinking like me (you have to go deep to the embryo of how and why the problem is, to solve it) and maybee they dont remember that we tried theres solution before and it didnt work.
Determining your MBTI personality type can be a fun and insightful process. One way to start is by taking an official MBTI assessment, which is a questionnaire designed to identify your preferences in four key dichotomies: Extraversion (E) or Introversion (I), Sensing (S) or Intuition (N), Thinking (T) or Feeling (F), and Judging (J) or Perceiving (P). After completing the assessment, you'll receive a four-letter type, such as INFJ or ESTP, which represents your preferences. Remember that MBTI is just one tool for self-awareness, and it's important to keep in mind that personality is complex, so the result should be seen as a starting point for self-discovery.
Unconscious when conscious, yeah anyone has that ave a word, being an unconscious animal ain't great been their done that, I died spiritually, but don't worry god resurected and illuminated me, so cheers that fallen angel holy grail of consciousness cost me nothing but wanting true love from covert narc so they wanted me dead, you couldn't make it up
When I took my test it said I was an INFJ-T, but I retook it and it said I was an ENFJ-T but it was close to 48-53 percent on both results. If I do have all those capabilities I sure am not using it at all. I drown my thoughts ideas and sorrows with medical cannabis, I need to find a support network for Ambivert Intuitive Feeling Judging Turbulent people. I need to do better.
Think if You tend more too look more human interaction or You avoid it, enfjs tend to be much more social and Open than infjs, they can be more active and productive too.
For people like us...its hard to walk this earth...I know the Bible can help you understand why you are the way you are...feel different then others. GOD says who ever loves the world is no friend off me...ask and is given, seek and you will find, knock and it will open. Do not react to bad humans, they want to break you...we are in a troubled time line...read the Bible. I do not follow any religion, cult or media crap...follow your heart feeling, if it doesn't feel good, leave. Pray and accept Jesus. He is the way, the truth and the life. Tis world is not what you think, buth what is coming is salvation for those who repent and believes in GOD, JESUS and the HOLY SPIRIT. Pray each day for the lost souls. Don't miss your ticket to heaven...its coming.
