An INFP Being an INFP

Personality type stuff (mostly MBTI and enneagram)

[observingmbti]

The Types and Why They Procrastinate

Because they’re not emotionally ready to deal with the task at hand: INFP, INFJ, ISFP

Because the task wasn’t very exciting: ESFP, ENFP, ISTP, ESTP

Because someone needed their help. More like a couple someones, actually: ISFJ, ESFJ, ENFJ

Because they think the task isn’t worth their time: ESTJ, ENTJ, ISTJ

Because they didn’t find the task intellectually stimulating: INTJ, INTP, ENTP

I read the first one and yep that is me. All the time. Anyone who knows me will tell you

[asensitiveinfp]

My choir teacher is doing polls for attendance everyday on google classroom, and today’s was If you could time travel, would you go to the past or the future? She said we could elaborate in a comment if we wanted. My choir teacher is an INTJ and Type 1. She says things like “You’re such an INFP/Four” a lot. 

[ID: Google classroom comment chain with four comments. 

First comment: Me (INFP Four): I would go to the past and change something. I don't know what I would change. That depends on when and where I end up. Maybe just being there would change something. Which one would you choose?

Second comment: INTJ One: I think I would like to visit the past to observe. There are too many books about what would happen if you change any small detail of the past. It would be interesting to be able to jump around during different time in history to better understand why people made the decisions they made. I don't think I would like to visit the future. I already know we win. I don't want to know my future because I've discovered that God prepares me little by little for what he requires of me. It helps that I don't see where it is all headed or I might freak out and lose courage.

Third comment: People always talk about how changing things in the past changes the present, but most people don't think about the butterfly effect in terms of the present. How much could we change by making a slightly different choice? How different could the future be based on what we do now? I don't know. I can get stuck in the thought that ultimately everything I do will end up being meaningless and forgotten, so I guess it's nice to think I could drastically change anything.

Fourth comment: Spoken like a true four. Lol]

Question to the MBTI community, why does every single INFP likes green and/or purple?

[asensitiveinfp]

Lol purple is my favorite color (well, after blue). And green can be a really nice color. For me it depends on the shade.

Idk I guess green=nature and purple definitely is magic

y’all know it’s true

Thank you so much for the nice feedback on Fi vs Fe post. Here’s introverted thinking and extraverted thinking!

WHAT ARE COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS?

EXTRAVERTED FEELING VS INTROVERTED FEELING

[mbtihell]

Did a silly little thing to illustrate some differences between extraverted feeling and introverted feeling!

WHAT ARE COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS?

INTROVERTED THINKING VS EXTRAVERTED THINKING

[mbtihell]

The very basics of cognitive functions. I know it’s super boring and annoying to learn this system, but it’ll drag you deeper in this pseudoscience hell help you a bunch.

INTROVERTED FEELING VS EXTRAVERTED FEELING

Just INFP Things

- Doing stupid or clumsy things because you forgot to pay attention to the real world again; walked into doors, burned your food, maybe jumped a red light… 

-When someone is Having Feelings in your vicinity, you are having those feelings right along with them, even if you don’t know who they are or why they’re upset

- ART VS. SCIENCE

- Really wanting to have your life all organised and together but also being the sort of person who just doesn’t do that

- When you look at a thing and it reminds you of another thing but nobody else sees it and then you become ‘the weird one’. 

- Dropping everything you’re doing to google something you got curious about, or draw an image that just occurred to you, or in any way indulging a sudden burst of imagination before it slips away and your boring life returns

- Having to say ‘I DON’T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN IT IT’S JUST THIS FEELING’ on a daily basis to a bunch of blank faces

- Nobody seems to appreciate the value of a long walk by yourself

- The sensible, logical voice in your head is constantly facepalming at all the stupid stuff you do, even though it told you this was a bad idea

- Your best solution to most potential problems is ‘I’ll just take to the woods and live alone with the trees where nobody will care what I do’

- ‘What are you staring at?’ ‘What are you smiling about?’ ‘Why the sudden gasp?’ 

- When you’re focused on something important then you start thinking all these other thoughts about the thing and then it snowballs and you realise you have no idea what you started off focused on anymore

- The inside of your head is basically Jean Valjean’s ‘Who Am I?’ playing on a loop

- OVERTHINKINGGGG

Please add your INFP things below

[intp-fluffy-robot]

Things i’ve heard NTs say

“Anyone can have an opinion but not everyone is informed”

“There can be a reason but not all reasons are reasonable”

“There is no such thing as too much innovation. There is only inefficient innovation.”

“HOW DO I MAKE PEOPLE LIKE ME”

(when asked for help on someone’s situation) “I don’t think anything of it. I’m at an uninformed standpoint, so I’m incompetent”

“Can you like stop being upset at me now”

“Look! I made an emotion chart to help me identify what I’m feeling”

“Google is such a blessing. I don’t need a love life, I got Google Docs” (bonus: “if you have a Yahoo! mail – who ARE YOU EVEN??”)

“Take it easy – keep an open mind so you can optimize solutions, and keep an open heart so you can be driven to find those solutions.”

“Put smiley faces and say ‘good morning’ so that people will listen to you or else they’ll say you’re too harsh”

“Hey, I’m straightforward, okay? If you say ‘nah’, I’ll really take it as ‘nah’”

You’re not wrong

[funkymbtifiction]

Dom/Tert

Let’s just save some time, shall we?

Si: learning step by step followed by application, strong awareness of details, comparison to experience to identify new objects.

Ni: futuristic visualizations, wakes up with the answer, confident pieces will slip into place, trusts intuitive hunches / patterns.

Ti: forms inner logical framework, wants all the pieces to fit and make sense, logically consistent, understands how things work, hacks the system.

Fi: awareness of self, awareness of attraction/repulsion, strong moral center, emotional objectivity, personalizes experiences (relates them to self through “identification”), resistance to others being “forced” to conform.

Se: awareness of potential within the environment, hands-on learning, confident in engaging the senses, accurately judges situations and knows how to make the right things happen, skilled in being opportunistic.

Ne: instant acceptance of and running with ideas, able to see multiple perspectives at once, quickly connects unrelated things, focuses on the big picture, detachment from sensory objects in favor of broad implications.

Te: impartial judgments based on productivity and factual concerns, easily creates systems other people of different backgrounds can use to achieve the same / tangible results, outward organizational skills (charts, maps, diagrams, improvement models), weighs importance / success on outcome.

Fe: impartial judging systems based on impact to society, skills of team building, thinks in terms of inclusion, believes everyone is equal and has value, skilled at bringing people together for a common cause, weighs importance / success on external values and whether others accept their methods.

Placement: 

Dom: This is their super power. They can do this in their sleep.

Aux: Able to do it, but cannot keep it up forever.

Tert: Knows they should be better at it, consciously works at it, but clumsy and often makes mistakes related to it in terms of over-simplification.

Inferior: Their active blind spot, the cause of most of their misjudgments, mistakes, and repeated bad behaviors, often a source of frustration, anger and/or humiliation when others draw attention to their lack of skill in this area.
