'Hi Kennedy! And welcome to the forums! I am quite new here myself :) I think there must be some sort of link and it has to do with how we dwell, internalize, and eventually explode. One of my...
Sound advise and input to both of you! I do try to position myself in a better place, it has nearly been a year here and nothing has changed though. In my last position, I snuck through and was...
I used to write a lot of poetry. I started the outline of a book before too and it was well received, but I stopped. Writing depends on my mood, like art, I need to feel it. Movies... I used to...
100% Agreed. I need a job that allows me to have time to explore myself and hobbies. So frustrating.
I have such expensive taste / habits and have not hit my earning potential yet, it would be such a shame to quit now :/ I see what you are saying though. It's kind of like the quality over the...
And do what?
I don't know what to do anymore, I have a hard time falling asleep knowing I have work the next day, I have a hard time waking up knowing where I have to go, and I leave early whenever I can. I'm...
Ummmm. What? How was I scammed? I listened to what he said and responded to the parts I felt were important. I could give a crap about what he did / does, more so how and why. For him to dupe...
There are some aspects of older homes that are amazing. Well thought out layouts, real materials used, unique lighting. As someone mentioned though, I have no interest in fixing one up though. ...
I've only had bits and pieces of it for years now. 5-6 years ago... man. 100% unstoppable. A good home, significant other, and job do wonders.
It's hard for us to have everything we need :/ Without them we do just fine, with them we are 100% bosses. As in, beast mode, unstoppable forces.
I have not changed at least yet. I am trying to figure out a way to encompass both my talents and my needs. This is no possible in every career path of course. It would help if companies treated...
I don't think it has to be any more complicated than we are idealists. Even if we are happy, we are smart enough to know we could be less happy, and idealistic enough to think there is more...
38 total responses so far! I probably need at least a couple hundred to make some graphs and such though :/
Less than 20 people so far, mostly INFJs. It looks like most put themselves at 3 :-p
I have 10 responses so far, thank you everyone! If I can get enough data (from all types) it would be awesome be able to analyze the data. Thanks again everyone!
I wanted to take a little poll, but it looks the the forum has limited options. Hopefully this is okay to do... but here is my little survey. Thank you in advance to anyone who fills it out! ...
As an INFJ you have a great potential to put out amazing music. David Bowie and Trent Reznor are perfect examples of this.
Oh wow, I didn't even think to add that to the list heh. I do that all the time too! I do it tl my boss the most, even when half paying attention and I think its often to make him go away . But...
Hmm interesting! I don't think I do it on a conscious level so much, no. As for your theories in the modes we can be set to... I can't say I disagree with any of those ideas. I think there are more...
And I've also been working on a theory that the reason I feel emotions and situations more intensely than others. As an INFJ I am very good at protecting myself. If I am good at avoiding certain...
I was sitting around with my friend watching a bunch of game of thrones back to back. I asked him if he said something and he thought I was crazy. Until I explained it to him. I could just barely...
100% agreed!
Mhmm! I think the same goes for biopolar traits. We are usually calm until enough is enough and we explode. We let issues build up and see if they go away on their own. Then out of nowhere, bam!
Yes. One of my best friends is also an INFJ and we have a fun time doing it actually! Maybe it is not the nicest thing, but we tear people apart and try to be funny about it. Rarely to someone...
How short my fuse is? It depends! It has been better and I tend to keep the flame low as best as possible these days. It depends on the factors of the situation and outside influences of course. ...
I did not get one... I sent you one to test, you can reply to it. That's the power of simplifying things and remembering their most important parts! We can make good comparisons :) Oh do...
I'm really not sure. I have only really focused on studying INFJs at this point.
Without a doubt. In conversation I read between the lines reading their emotions, physical queues, and such. I always break down communication of any form into okay, what do they really mean?. I...
You got it. You are definitely not alone! This world loves extroverts and math, introverts who are artistic have the greatest potential to struggle in my opinion. I think this is true for both our...
I am glad you are on this forum UneducatedScholar. I have often thought of myself as an intellectual, but it is obvious you are much more intelligent than myself. It's kind of scary. You have some...
That's a bit brutal don't you think? I'm not saying it's not accurate, I just think you could be a bit more tasteful about it. I'm not trying to start trouble and I apologize if I have misjudged...
That is awesome if you ask me. What snapped you back into that mindset?
Ahh you mean how social media is amazing :). Can you explain the apartment thing more? I'm quite interested in what you are saying there.
It's not that I prefer it, its that my friends don't play like me. If they play its a lot more casual for them, like Xbox. And human rights for sure. Django made me cry as they flashed through...
You're the best. I used to be in an undefeated UT99 clan, but that's dead so I have since moved on to counter strike, dota2, and some MMOs. I used to love racing games, I still admire them, but I...
I should add, it's been a difficult ride. I feel like I have been sleeping for awhile, I'm a wake now, but I don't know where to go... I think it is common considering my personality type. Like...
I think everyone is right here. We try to be polite, but respond with minimal effort: Yeah. You know when an INFJ is engaged, with the right opportunity we don't show up. It's hard to say...
Thank you for your kind words :). I work and play very competitive video games. Saturdays I am typically gone for 24 hours visiting my newest group of friends, the intellectual type. I try to...
Brilliant, just brilliant. And of course superhero is an exaggeration :-p
Haha that's an INFJ thing :) No worries, I understand though. I think you're right, I love to help people reach their goals and feed their passions more than my own.
I am in my mid 20's and I think that statement represents my life well. I'm not sure how to describe it or why I feel this way. Can anyone relate to that statement?
Once again, I think you are spot on :) I want to wake people up, I want to create some sparks, and make people question everything like I do. Why do you say opening up is gaining popularity? ...
I never thought of this aspect! Personally I like plain colors too. I only wear jeans and mostly gray, blue, white, and black shirts. I like some nicer brands but American eagle is probably my...
I love it. I agree, we have such a great opportunity now to communicate our ideas so quickly. It's such a waste if the only things shared are picture of cats and food. I get frustrated when I...
Thank you Robert! :) I think you have hit everything spot on! I haven't found my talents huh? I think I've been trying to find them, I guess I don't where to start. I am obviously a great...
We talk, we watch movies, watch movies and music videos. It's different than it used to be before more people were added in. We used to play guitar. My friend taught me a lot, but it's stopped for...
I have noticed this. I think it is why I need variety in my friendships. The intellectual side of me is often satisfied by my best friends, but there tends to be a lack of emotional connection. I...
I used to think about this as a young child and scared myself quite often hehe. It's beyond trippy!
