I have an ISTJ supervisor who reminds me of Jeff. He was upset once when I created too many subfolders for a project we stored on our cloud drive. I thought I was being organized, but he thought I created "too many clicks," lol. Great thing about working with STJs is you'll learn how to be more efficient with your time!
It’s too bad people don’t know this when raising and teaching children. I can have fun like anyone but I don’t know how many times people have misunderstood my disinterest isn’t personal. We just have our own pace. I have actually said I have about three good days in me a week but that’s hard for the eight days a week types to understand.
@@kellie8468 I definitely relate to this "waves." I can occasionally force a high-energy streak for a few days, but then this is always followed by a week of extreme low-energy. I'm still not sure whether I should just ride these waves or try to structure it in a way that I can be productive more frequently for shorter periods of time.
You know, all the first world countries that push work ethic and overtime should keep in mind every day that the richest man in the world usually gets 8 hours of sleep a night while running his business. Seems the busybodies end up creating the cultural standard and it negatively affects those who spend their energy wisely.
@baby turtle true... I'm not sure exactly why it is "needed," but always having at least a small amount of immigration is a good thing. Imagine being born in a 1st world country that goes to shit and you can't move to another 1st world country because none of them allow immigration. Open options are always good, and also some barrier to entry is also good.
@baby turtle of course, bringing in low IQ and high crime is bad, though not sure what that has to do with brain drain, other than maybe the opposite result lol
As a sleeper, I find that I like to make these rigid schedules for myself, but only concerning the real world. Waking up, going to the store, work, washing hair, free time, these all have their own places in my day. And I will stick to it religiously and follow it almost reflexively. This is a formula that works for me and if I stick to it, I can preserve energy for my "rich inner world" stuff, which is chaotic as balls. And if one thing comes up, somebody goes all "let's do this random thing RIGHT FUCKING NOW", then my whole day is ruined. Expending energy needs to be scheduled. Honestly, I'm starting to really hate this. I blame my loneliness on sleep. Problem is, I literally can't function any other way and having Fe last as well really messes with my relationship with the tribe.
"Expending energy needs to be scheduled".... so much this. It's not that I won't or "can't"... but I generally prefer it to be PLANNED. True emergencies are excepted from this. But... everyone else seems to operate on "emergency" level ALL THE TIME. Best quote I've seen for this tendency is "a lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine."
My god, I am play last... makes sense of sooooooo much. My whole existence is about taking rests before doing things and if I start to get low energy I feel like I’m about to freak out because I’m afraid of not being ready if something happens or that I will just suddenly collapse where I stand when I reach 0. So when I’m going to work for 5 hours I schedule resting time before where I just relax and mentally prepare to work 10 hours, just in case. Having energy left after doing something is prio uno.
Thank you for writing this clear example of how it looks in family life. I'm dealing with a Play last, and I thought I just wasn't motivating them enough.
I love these animal-last videos. They're the most helpful because seeing clearly what you're not can be most helpful. The Blast video confused me a lot about what Blast was and I began to overthink it, imagining I'd have to be just like Tai Lopez to be Blast... but context helps. I sense that I filter through another animal before I get to Play because I won't get engaged unless I, well, am engaged; people call me reserved in some settings because 1. random things happening overwhelm me, and 2. I'm not there to be Excited. The bit about 'I need rest but I can't stop' reminds me so much of me at age 11 or so spending seven hours on a page of math problems. Not eating or drinking, not going to the bathroom, not doing a thing else... except maybe drawing on the side (it's the cogs of the brain working). I still will do this, but since I became aware I figured out how to deal with it- make tasks short in my brain so I can always finish and take care of myself as well. I knew if I let it keep going like that, I might become a wreck.
YEESSSSSS!! 52 year old INTJ female here. I feel like I am ALWAYS putting on the breaks and hiding from people so I can be left alone to work on my projects and rest.
I am so sorry for harassing people with Play Last my entire life 🙇 . As a BP/C(S), I tend to get mad at Play Lasts because they seem to just not wanna play along. They prove to be immune to all my blasting and motivating and I’ve always taken it soooo personally. E.g. my Play Last bandmate has a hard time expanding the same amount of energy on stage as me, and it always feels as if he is leaving me out in the rain. We’ve now started to videotape ourselves to get a better feel for our different animal energy levels from the outside. When I think I’m taking myself back, I’m still in everybody’s face. When he thinks he’s dancing around like a maniac you can barely see him move a foot. 🕺💃 It’s hilarious how off we can be about ourselves.
You can use his Play last. The singer plays off the guitarist's stillness near the end of this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2AxRIa-KySc.html
Some time ago I decided I realized I would annoy the shit out of some people. You realize you have to turn down the volume if you want to connect. But in general I find certain people too "dry."
Don't take it personally. You just have to remember that expending energy takes effort for us. Just like you need to put in the effort to stop, we need to put in the effort to get going.
@@worldwidehappiness That's a great example! Thank you! I guess, for me it's important to learn how to trust my friend that he's present with me even when he's not expanding energy.
@RU-vid Veterinarian 🙏👋 Yeah, what can you do... I'm working on embracing the calmness of my friend. And at the same time coming to terms with my own energy. 🧘
I'm totally showing this video to my husband. He is always on the go, and get's so frustrated when I am "being lazy" he sits down and literally says that he feels guilty and asks how I can be happy sitting and reading. I tell him that my have to things are done, unless something world-ending is going to happen, I am not moving. My two kids are the same as me. It's like the start to a really funny joke......
Story of my life. I've never seen the Jeff Bezos clip but omg...it hits home. My sis does not understand why I'm constantly harping on getting enough sleep, arranging my meetings/calls, time to do work, etc. It fucks with me if someone says to change things last minute or things goes on longer than expected. I can get things done as long as I have a time limit. I will make sure everything is finished by then but dont bother me after.⚔️⚔️
Oh come on, Besos doesn't "run" Amazon. Thousands of managers, supervisors and employees do. Same goes for all CEOs. Ask him how many hours he put in when Amazon was a small start-up on-line bookstore 25 years ago.
It doesn't Matter. He definitely put in the work. The deference between him and high play/blasters is even when they become billionaires High play/blasters will still look for activity to fill their plate. All that reading a book before ten, laying in bed for an hour after waking up is not for them.
I do safeguard my energy and "put the brakes on," but being an INTJ/finisher type, once I start something challenging, I will not stop until it's complete or I die, whichever comes first. Which makes me hesitant to start things.
Yeah this is why I struggled with having a 9-to-5 job with almost 2 hours of round-trip commute. Sure, Amazon is partially responsible for the overwork culture (that enables same-day deliveries) despite Jeff Bezos living the opposite lifestyle. But I really agree that quality over quantity is the best way to work. People that work overtime don't always make the most thoughtful decisions.
-Have returned since realizing that I am actually Play third, Blast last. I am psychotically afraid of my Blast, and Play doesn’t stress me out the way Blast does- however, I still HATE going out and spending time people spontaneously, and I often forget people exist the moment I’m alone. I love scheduling my life according to my preferences and needs, and I turn down plans a LOT because I never want to leave my “me” space where I can think and recharge.
I finally have a hypothesis that I am CS/P(B) which is funny because I always imagined I'd be good at teaching and I always thought I was bad at "play", but I guess Blast is my peacocking demon, I respect Blast A LOT... but play must be third when I think about it and try to be objective. My friend must be Play last, there is no doubt about it. He rarely goes out or talk to anyone. SB/C(P) is my guess.
Okay, I am play last.. Like my body doesn`t even hava the structure to.go far.. If I just keep.going, I will.lose weight, I will be emotionally unstable, it is just a real valid need to get rest. It is so hard to.explain to lead.play.people, like for them we just seem like really lazy.. specially for.women, if we get home and rest when there are dishes to do... For a woman it is not acceptable.. I just feel this.giant need to rest before getting.started
This reminded me of Frank Sinatra him refusing to do more than one take in a given movie. The very few movies he was in he refused to do more than one take.
I love to have fun... after I complete every. single. thing. on my to-do list... for the current year... and catch up the on the preceding years. So, yeah... I love to play... when I ‘have the time’. 😭😭😭
Play-last EJ here with complete annoyance and make the same face as Bezos over this "after lunch" thing. I can feel my mental stamina completely decline after lunch, even if i'm full of energy. I just feel that I cant make important decisions! Also anybody who can work out after 5pm is f'ing crazy. That's a first-thing-ofthe-day thing.
I think I am play last. I know, all the warnings about self typing, etc. But I have a hard time getting through the work day, avoid running errands afterwards if I can, go home and lay on my couch for the rest of the night 9/10 and am lucky if I can get some studying in (as opposed to more relaxing and mindless pastimes). It's hard for me to guess if I'm sleep first or just feel that way because of stressful job leaving me not much but I really don't think play is in my top 3.
It is difficult to navigate the needs/expectations of loved ones and society with Sleep first. I am constantly trying to simplify and moderate so I can have time to process and “breathe”, focus on what matters, and resent the seemingly endless flow of meaningless junk and demands on my time and energy. Being forced to “actively engage” for even more than a few hours causes fatigue. Few people seem to have that issue or understand it, so prevalent social norms often contradict my natural rhythm. I am left with trying to fix my “energy problem” to meet a basic standard of normalcy and keep food on the table, even though I know I am perfectly healthy. Jeff Bezos seems to have figured it out. I guess I should demand other people do the energy-intensive legwork for me and claim my entitlement as a “visionary” with no guilty conscience, then it’d be fine. 😆
ENFJ BS/C(P) I will say that it is more about long term energy conservation and availability than short term energy expenditure and depletion. I hear so many motivational videos about “you have to be the first person to wake up and the last person to sleep or leave.” And while that position has merit, I am not interested in creating more problems for myself while reaching my goals. I want to be available to those who need me for as long as possible; not just for a few days but for a lifetime. It’s a marathon, not a sprint.
@@venturer577 Don't forget. So do saviour Plays. That's what they long for. Too bad, if they deprive our play time, then we shall deprive their sleep. ;)
love to putter... need some kind of personaol time to allow myself to gradually get in to something thats overwhelming... also I dont really like fun...
I've definitely told myself before that it'd be nice to have a routine where I can casually wake up and mess around for a while, kind of chill out before getting started. and then comfortably move through the day, but MAN can I not keep to it. I always end up gradually shifting later and later, because I stay up late either working on something or just messing around, and end up with a schedule where I wake up to an alarm almost the exact minimum amount of time before I have to leave for the day.
Dolf Dervish I currently consider myself as an INFP, Saviors being Fi & Ne, with Feminine Si and Masculine Ne. I haven’t yet fully figured out whether my Fi is masculine or feminine yet. As for the animals, I know I use Consume over Blast and Sleep over Play, but I don’t know the exact order yet.
What they mean by "deep inner world" is that it's the opposite of what play is. Play is very objective in the sense that it's all about affecting reality. It's like blast, but "in the moment" as it revolves around intake of new information to make a decision in reality instead of core information. Sleep, on the other hand, is very subjective in comparison. It's figuring the meaning/use of core information solely for themselves. It isn't necessarily bounded by what would make sense in reality.
@@Naan-E I'm asking for a spectrum comparsion. They said they talk to 'normal people' than some comes a long and a deep inner world is obvious. What does that look like compared to 'normal people?' So what does 'normal peoples' inner world look like vs someone with a 'deep inner world'
I think "deep inner world" means that the person does not seem to have a big amount of knowledge/skills/activities/… yet they actually have, but this "rich world" can barely be seen. They don't show off nor tend to teach or have an effect on the outside world. That's what "deep inner world" feels to me.
Hannah Haugen Well, this is just a guess but, by “normal people” they must mean anyone that’s not Sleep-first. The order of the spectrum after Sleep-first would be Consume-first, then Blast-first, then Play-first. @McScrubber had already described Play-first pretty well. As for both Blast & Consume, these two have an introverted quality to them due to the introverted function whether the function is a Decider or an Observer. I would say the inner world of Consume-first people looks like having a stable, unchanging decision-making system (Di) and a constantly changing perception (Oe). For Blast-first people it would be the reverse, with a stable unchanging perception (Oi) and a constantly changing decision-making system (De). So for Sleep, a “deep inner world” means having both perception and decision-making stay stable and unchanging. I hope that helps.
I can deal with random crap, but it's miserable; reacting, especially when I'm in a Sleep mode, is ass. I prefer to start this on my own terms then do a sort of rapid fire conversation with my interlocutors, which I rather enjoy and can find a great deal of fun in if it goes somewhere. Only for short periods of time though, up to half an hour at a time, and usually for short two-minute bursts when doing business in public. I'm thinking this one is third for me. I think of it as a sort of "needy charisma".
Hmm starting to think I may have play last. I go to sleep around 10:30pm and get up at 6am. I workout and then go to work. My prime thinking time is 9am to 1pm and during the weekend I get a lot of creative stuff done during this time. But on the weekdays when 5pm comes around? NOPE. I cannot think anymore. I’m done for the day. I used to think I couldn’t be lead sleep because I like to get up early and do the most active parts of my day first. Now I’m wondering if that’s just when my body has the most energy and I like having a schedule. Because for the rest of the day I conserve energy like no one’s business.
I believe I’m a glass lizard ENFJ MF Fe/Ni BS/C(P). My sister said this is true. As I meditated on it, I feel insecure about bouncing back new info. I’d rather sit and consume like an INFJ. But I’m ENFJ cognitive staking. Always resonated with the Fe-Ti access and the Ni-Se access. But at times felt way too quiet/uninterested in tribe for an extrovert. But I knew I was an NF and a single decider and Fe dominate which rules out the standard INFJ. But if I’m Play last that’ll make sense as a glass lizard. I just may access my Ti more than I should and not enough Se. I’m very comfortable processing people, the responses to that person, what my opinion is and only playing with the tribe when the connection is PERFECT in every way. I wonder if Dave & Shan would agree!
I’ve typed myself as the same Enfj. Before I thought I was Infj but it didn’t really feel right so I immersed myself into mbti and researching everything I could. I come across these two lovely souls and they educate me on the whole blast, play, consume, sleep and I’m like wowwwwww this feels right. Like you mentioned I too would rather sit and consume like an infj. So glad these two are clarifying what extroversion and introversion really are.
@@prankstar9223 I just got typed by Dave & Shan about two weeks ago. Turns out, I was completely wrong with my type in every way except a few. I eventually said I was MF ENFJ Fe/Ni BS/P(C). Turns out I'm officially typed as MF Ne/Fi CP/S(B). ENFP!! Functions inside out and animals precisely backwards.
how would you differentiate this from people who are "energy dominant" (i.e. they have both sleep and play in their top three)? it seems like what you're describing in the video is someone who is very preoccupied with saving/expending energy...
Savior Play is really awful. It's not about having fun, or running around like an idiot - in a growth mindset, it's taking responsibility for making new information work, and resistance to showing how much we hate it. Se expends a shit ton of body energy for the sake of keeping up, and Ne invents new systems to understand it. Because we observe the tribe on a spectrum, we see all the ways people need help, and feel compelled to do them each. Mostly because when we tell all those anxious people to leave us alone, they go get validation from someone else, and we get majorly jealous/insecure.
@RU-vid Veterinarian I think much of it depends on the letters and their sexuality, as much as the RU-vid series focuses on not going that deep. My Play, which is second, is doubly feminine as well as NT. That can manifest as nonchalant conversations resembling Wikipedia-article-jumping games, but it can also look like getting spoken over in class because you can't quite summon the confidence. It's feminine and supple, NT and logical. You let the tribe do whatever because you know that they have good reasons, and that couples with the fear of "imposing yourself" upon them, God forbid you make a mistake and have to stick with it. I can't imagine what it's like for the true Play firsts.
i'm not sure i'm sleep first, but this does sound alot like me, so i think i'll try setting like 3 goals that i have to accomplish each day (nothing abstract and nothing that'll take too long) and see how that works out. Maby even with the goal of doing them like closely after 10AM if they are high iq stuff (lol). if it works well i'm gonna assume i'm sleep first instead of consume which i've previously thought (hmm, maby wanted is more correct).
I also dislike, what I call "domestic choices": If I need a stapler, don't ask me what color I want my stapler to be! A stapler's job, is to staple! Not to be yellow, or whatever colors there are in the stapler spectrum...! What do I want to eat? I dunno, what's nice...? Anything really... I don't care!
I can't even remember playing... I hate expending energy. I've been called lazy so many times before. I have a great imagination and I'm really good with abstractions. I'm pretty sure I'm NiTi. But lately have been thinking maybe what I have assumed to be Ni is actually Ti and I am TiNe. Need some help with this one. Also, suspecting NiFi
Check out their tidalwaves video. NiTi would feel stuck with chaos/control like all ExxP/IxxJ . TiNe would feel stuck with self/tribe like all ExxJ/IxxP. You can ask yourself if you tend to get more upset at things/systems not working (NiTi, an IJ) or about people/individuals "not working" or getting in your way (TiNe, an IP).
You don't think he is describing and ideal day for him? Most people don't recite their daily routines accurately, and we know he spends time chasing other ladies. So I am having trouble seeing him as an example. Also, did he putter when it was an upstart business, or is he now puttering that he has others to work for him?
Ok I have been in & out of classes/and watching videos on the site for awhile now, also consuming RU-vid information from you & slowly trying to figure out my animal order for what kind of INTJ I am. I know I have Play last somewhere, just not sure if its before or after Blast; tho my INTJ stack/functions are closest to your typings of Steve Jobs. Anyhow, thank you for making this, Ill be consuming/observing a lot more before interacting.
"When it comes to stuff that I don't wanna do - i take a dive" - isn't this like... with everyone? I don't know a single human that wants to do stuff that they don't like. That's called suffering, masochism, whatever, but it's not normal. That statement doesn't hold up at all
Ok... Let's give this thing a go: Sleep.. Consume.. Blast... Play.. Etc.. Are they absolutely interchangeable? Or, do you claim they must fit within a particular order?
I've been trying to figure out the same thing but haven't gotten a clear answer. If you pause the video when they show the chart and look at all the animal arrangements any given type can have, you'll see a pattern. Your first animal is set based on your first 2 functions. For example, a Ti/Ne INTP must lead with Consume (Ti + Ne). Although an "INTP jumper" must lead with Sleep because their Saviors are Ti + Si. Other than the first animal being set based on your Saviors, the following 3 animals are _almost_ interchangeable, it seems. Using the Ti/Ne example, they could be CSB(P), CSP(B), CPS(B) or CPB(S). Four possibilities total. First function must be Consume. Second animal could be either Sleep (Ti + Si) or Play (Ne + Fe). Third animal could be either Blast (Si+Fe) Play (Ne+Fe), or Sleep (Ti+Si). And last animal again could be either Blast, Play, or Sleep. So when you lead with Consume (which must be first because it's the combination of Saviors for the Ti/Ne), the other side of that coin, Blast (combination of demons for the Ti/Ne) will always be one of the last 2 animals and cannot be the second animal. That leaves the second animal being either Sleep or Play (both animals that combine both a Savior and Demon function), and whichever is 2nd, the other side of that coin will be either 3rd or 4th (anywhere in the second half of animals, whichever slot is not occupied by Blast). One might think the pattern would make more sense if the animal that combined both Demons were always last, but apparently not. They're basically saying the animal that combines both your Demons must be one of the last 2 animals. So according to their theory, this makes 4 possible animal arrangements for each type (or 8 if you include jumpers in with the others who have the standard version of that type) out of 16 possible permutations total.
Can someone explain the chart they use? I'm confused, it looks like they were typing Bezos as ENTP? They circled around the green area implying he's an EXXP. Any help?
I studied the animals and understood that if you start with S, you end with P. But this video shows people with CS/B(P). That's got me confused. Can someone please explain?
I was trying to figure out if I _really_ have savior sleep, then I remembered that every single tech week (I’m on crew not cast) I say “I’m tired” and leave half way through the night and nobody knows where I am or they get pissed at me for betraying them. I probably shouldn’t be laughing at this. Oh well. P.S. if there is no where comfy to sit I’m OUTTA THERE. I end up like in the hallway in some crevice eating cold edamame and watching RU-vid when the head of costumes yells at me to not sit on the chairs. Heheehehhehe I was never important though. Wow this is a shithole imma leave
I think I’m sleep first because I’m tired all the fucking time, but actually I only sleep like 6 hours a night. Edit: I’m in a library and I just sniggered to myself and some random man turned and looked at me and we made eye contact 😂
Ok! INFJ Ni/Fe here (I think). I'm still trying to figure out my animal order. Anyway, I wanted to show you guys a video of Brian Alrush, a YT'er in the fitness industry. Inspiring & funny guy!! I would live to get your thoughts on his profile. I have my MBTI prediction that I will keep to myself for now, but (after watching your video here), I'm guessing this guy is high on Play and Blast. You can tell me. In this Day-in-the-life video, he actually verbalizes how his brain is wired, what gives him anxiety, and how he approaches tasks throughout his day. Of course, you can look at his other videos, too. I thought it would be an excellent look at a prominent YT'er's personality. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xoZoqVMnTXg.html
@@dougg1976 There seems to be a comment by that I can not see. If it was the same nitpick as mine to follow, I'm sorry ^^ You can not be lead consume and a J type. Consume is the combination of introverted juding (Ti or Fi) with extraverted perception (Ne or Se). All ExxJs got Te or Fe first, all IxxJs got Ni or Si first. As an INFJ you could only be lead blast or sleep. The only types with lead consume are P types. What is possible though is for your consume to be double activated. That would mean that you got it high up and that blast is last. Because consume is activated through being present in your stack, as well as its components (Di & Oe) being activated through sleep and play first and third. An INFJ with double activated consume would be Ni/Ti-SC/P(B).
