Dude, ever thought you're not an INFP? Read typeinmind NiFe cognitive functions. There's something wrong with the tests which is why we keep typing as the same thing. You're actually an INFJ, btw.

Hey, I get where you’re coming from. It’s extremely easy to mistype as an INFP on the internet, and popular websites such as 16personalities certainly don’t help.

However, if you’ve gone through my blog you’d know the amount of time I’ve spent researching cognitive functions. And I’m also enneagram 5, you think I’d make an entire mbti blog just going off of surface knowledge acquired through pop quizzes? No sir, this one is an INFP through and through.

Anyway, for anyone who’s actually unsure if they’re an INFP - Sakinorva and Keys2Cognition are a good starting point to typing yourself properly if you don’t wanna read straight theory from the get go.

When I Joined MBTIblr: The Types As Literally Everything, Sensors SUCK, MBTI AESTHETICS, Wild to Mild Misinformation, INFJs are the purest and best and only valid MBTI types, and so much more!
MBTIblr Now: MBTI is Dead and Ennea 8s killed it. Sensors have their issues, but the stereotype of dumb sensors come from elitist iNtuitives who can barely exist in this world as a human person. Correct information? I think? We've ascended beyond broad MBTI theory and are discussing niches of specific theories stemming from psychoanalysts you'd only know if you've done your homework. INFJs are the unhealthiest, worst, and least valid MBTI Type.

What do INFPs usually dream of? Or think about? I would love to hear anybody’s thoughts on this. I’m trying to get into other INFPs’ heads and see where they’re coming from.

Also what does it mean when any of you INFPs have strong emotions/reactions to something? What do you do about them?

And one last thing, how do you deal with stress? If you’re stressed out, do all of you actually get up to do something about it, do you procrastinate, or do you do nothing at all?

If you’re not INFP but you know an INFP fairly well, I welcome your thoughts on this as well.

1. I dream about literally leaving everything behind and living with someone dear to me at a remote location. I'm torn between somewhere in the woods, where I'll have a little farm, or somewhere in rural Greece at the seaside. I will make art and look after a lot of animals there. I SURE HOPE THIS ISN'T LAUGHABLE CUS I'M COMPLETELY SERIOUS. My other dream is to be a billionaire who leaves Earth to live on the first Mars settlement, basically I want to be Elon Musk.

2. When I have strong emotions about something it usually means that it wasn't the idealized vision I already pictured in my mind and I cannot control my immediate reaction of disappointment and anger. At this point the best I can do is not show these emotions but I don't think I can ever stop having them.

3. I deal with work-related stress by working harder, simple as that. I don't fuck around at work, if there is a problem it needs to be solved asap. With personal stress, however, I deal by ignoring it and trying to shove other feelings down the way; I think about it a lot and do nothing, until at some point an opportunity to resolve the issue presents itself and I take it.

Hope this helped?

Anonymous asked:

Do you think INFPs are the type to get offended the most? Or generally that it's an Fi thing?

mr-entj answered:

I think FPs are more honest and open about being offended. When the other types are offended (truly offended– not annoyed) they tend to react in distinctly different ways that aren’t inherently obvious to the naked eye, trends generally include:

High Fi (INFP, ISFP, ENFP, ESFP): Expression

Offended high Fi tends to be outspoken because they know where they stand on issues, they know what they believe is right or wrong, and they know how they feel about people who cross that line. 

High Fe (ENFJ, ESFJ, INFJ, ISFJ): Exclusion

Offended high Fe resorts to social exclusion a la Mean Girls. If someone is grossly inappropriate they tend to scold and then minimize exposure to that person by doing things like disinviting them to events, ignoring them when in direct contact, or just plain avoiding them altogether. High Fe also tries to stop the offensive person in question from infiltrating their social circles and influencing their friends.

Low Fi (ENTJ, ESTJ, INTJ, ISTJ): Aggression

Offended low Fi will bury you in facts and counterarguments, possibly toss in personal insults, and then promptly dismiss you as an idiot whose intelligence can’t be salvaged with prolonged conversation by shutting you down and shutting you out.

Low Fe (INTP, ISTP, ENTP, ESTP): Passive Aggression

Offended low Fe likes to troll (harass) which is a form of passive aggression because it’s an indirect form of hostility. They’ll come back again and again until the other person is worn out. The point of this reaction is that low Fe doesn’t want to reveal they’re actually offended but they want to inflict on the offending person the same hostility they received.

FP and FJ differences as my roommates

xxFP: *walks around the house completely naked* “bruh have you seen my sock" xxFJ: *walks in on me while I’m changing* “GAH oh god I’m sorry I’m so sorry I didn’t see anything omg I’m sorry"

xxFJ: uses the same extremely expensive toothpaste for months because they’ve calculated the optimal amount required for each brushing xxFP: just fucking squeezes the thing everywhere

xxFJ: goes shopping, too picky, doesn’t buy anything after two hours of looking around xxFP: goes for a walk, decides to check out random shop, comes back with a dozen useless things

xxFP: *comes home exhausted from work* “where’s the food” xxFJ: *comes home exhausted from work* “where’s the wine”

xxFJ: *in a hurry* “I’m going to be late!!!!! Where’s my phone, where’s my wallet, did I forget anything, okay money, keys, phone, CAN YOU CALL ME A CAB I’M GOING TO BE LATE” xxFP: FPs are never in a hurry. They’ve accepted the fact that they’re going to be late long ago

fe/fi texts

ok this might be totally correlation, but I noticed so many Fe users when texting, use your name ????? & I noticed me/ Fi-friends don’t ??

like they will be: have a good night, Chris. miss you so much chris !!! me too chris!!

then Fi is more like: have a great night. I miss you bunches !!! omG literally same with me!!!

like Fe emphasizes the other person to them, forming common ground for the relationship

Fi creates this context of relating themselves to you, showing their personal interest/value in you

#I think this sounds about right although ofc there are probably exceptions#maybe some Fe users aren't using names all the time#but I'm certain I don't know a Fi user who does it constantly#Fe#Fi

Anonymous asked:

Any advice for Fi-Dom leaders? Do you think they can be successful at leading people?

mr-entj answered:

Yes, there’s a large amount of Fi-dom and high Fi leaders in technology, non-profits, social work, health care, and academia. 

For INFP and ISFP leaders, the top 3 issues to be aware of:

1. Unwillingness to lead: The first obstacle is that Fi-doms have the tendency to completely avoid leadership positions. A few reasons include:

  • Wanting to do their own thing all the time without having to deal with other people’s shit (which is a valid point, carry on)
  • Viewing organizations (especially businesses) as corrupt, oppressive, and greedy machines who emphasize profitability at the expense of other human beings so avoiding these environments entirely
  • Associating being a leader with being bossy, imposing, harsh, oppressive, naggy, and overall unpleasant to other people
  • Low self-esteem

But for those interested, one piece of advice:

  • Flip your perspective on the nature of leadership, it’s not a burden– it’s an opportunity. It’s an opportunity for you to collaborate with other people who share your values to recognize a vision. Many systems in this world are unfair and broken, if you’re ever in a position of power and influence, this is your chance to finally fix those mistakes, create something new, and make a difference. Seize it. The upside of leadership is much larger than the potential downside.

2. Oversensitivity: For Fi-doms, constructive criticism can be a challenge and they can take negative feedback of their leadership skills or style as a personal attack resulting in stress, self-doubt, and defensiveness. Here’s the reality: leaders have always had, and will always have, a giant bullseye on their backs because people have opinions. And that’s okay. Their opinions can sometimes provide crucial feedback to your performance, growth, and development because a team that always agrees with everything you say or do has no value.

Advice:

  • When receiving constructive criticism, focus on how it impacts the goal instead of how it makes you feel. If someone tells you that painting the delivery room at a children’s hospital in black paint is a bad idea then analyze why the color black isn’t a great choice for kids– focus on the impact of your decisions on the people you’re serving and the goal you’re striving for– hold that feedback outside of yourself and analyze it closely. 
  • Ask: What was the implications of my actions? What are potential solutions? Who is the main priority in this situation? What would achieve the best outcome for that person/cause/goal?

3. Disorganization: Fi-doms encourage independence, creativity, individuality, and novel ways of doing things. Sounds great– what’s the issue here? If everyone is doing something different, in a different way, and at a different time   this causes issues resulting in lack of cohesion, lack of accountability, and disorganization.

Advice:

  • Set expectations and goals early, clearly, and consistently. It’s okay to let the team work using their own styles and on their own schedules if that work is funneled towards a common cause. You don’t need to flip a switch and go into dictator mode, you can still give people freedom, but make sure they’re moving in the same direction as everyone else. 
  • Create systems, not cages, by providing examples or templates so that the team has a baseline or idea of where to start. This helps with standardization while still allowing flexibility to customize. 
  • Hold people accountable for their actions and lack of results. Give them opportunities to improve, gather feedback, reassign them to roles they’re better suited for, but don’t let low performance and unreliability slide. This will make the team suffer.
