    INTJs and INFJs share a lot in common, which I touch on briefly.
    In this video I focus on 4 key differences:
    1. Sensitivity to tension
    2. Differences in the thinking process
    3. Entrepreneurial tendencies
    4. World-view and emotion

    I am still like INFJ somewhere maybe deep down but I become INTJ in order to survive this life

    Thank you!!! I feel confused because I test as both an INTJ or an INFJ. I am not quite as brilliant as the INTJ and I am a sensitive person. But, I thrive on logic. Your plain-language explanations and examples help me to better understand where I fit in: INFJ. Do not let anyone tell you that you need to use more "typology" terminology. After all, most of us can't understand them terms and if we were so knowledgeable, we'd be producing our own blogs as experts. I needed your lesson, and again, thank you.

      You're very welcome, Arlene. I'd say each type has equal capacity for brilliance depending on how you measure it. Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad you found the video helpful!

    I felt called out when you stated how INFJs get these goosebumps around others where there is tension or something. I’m still trying to figure out if I’m INTJ or INFJ since I don’t feel like I fit any, but I know very well that I have Ni as dominant and Se as inferior. Your video helped me a lot as you explained it simply and precisely!

      Did you figure it out? Every time I re-evaluate I continue to believe [don't judge it means what I currently understand to be true] that I'm INTJ but my skull also gets hot and pulses when there is "tension or something" in the room, especially with disingenuous arguments.

      @@donwald3436 Yepp!! I got typed through voice call in a discord, the main typist has a degree in some branch of psychology. Turns out I’m an ISFP, but it was difficult since apparently my Ni is extremely developed and overall I’m well balanced

    Infj is the hardest type to diagnose, infj being thinker and feeler most importantly because we are like chameleon its hard to put where we fit in .

    While there is crossover between the two types, the INTJ is often portrayed as a anti-social mad scientist but that's not always the case. I think in a social setting we act by default more robotics but in private/intimate interactions we are more passionate and reflective.
    I also think a huge part of our minds perceive the outer social world in a unique, some what odd-ball way. While I understand other people have emotions, I may not want to be in their direct path, especially if I do not know them, mainly because it feels like being caught in a net.

    I keep getting both in the test. What happens is that I am quite the feeler type when it comes to showing emotions but I am more the logical type. For example, if I had to fire an employer with a low potential and that doesn’t help my business, it would be quite easy. However I like talking about feeling with people I trust, if someone asks me if I’m fine and I’m not I will tell the person. But I think everyone, even INTJs open up theirselves if they feel comfortable, right? I also have a very clear plan for my future. I like to use everything for my own benefit and to help me in my business, because everything is useful somehow, even the saddest things can be used to make us feel determined and give even more of ourselves. Thank you for the video, now I think I am an INTJ.

    Im intj, sadly people say im unapproachable and emotionally cold, but i feel and care very deeply about many things including people close to me. I am empathetic to many, however struggle to make decisions based off emotions, prefereing logic and rational decision making. I love my wife and child more than anything in the world and will support them with all my heart till my dying day.

    This was a good video, but I'm still confused on if I'm INFJ or INTJ. I test INTJ, but I relate to INFJ in videos. It's almost like I'm definitely INFJ, but I present to reality more like an INTJ. Depends on the situation. When I do my best to self reflect on my initial reactions, I believe they come across more INFJ. I've been described as blunt but honest and have caught myself wishing I had more empathy in general. I'm very tempted to have you type me.

      You could be INTP.
      You wish you had more empathy -> inf Fe
      You are still ambivalent between types -> Ne (does not want to conclude but to keep seeing possibilities)

    Intjs are very soft underneath ,as a entp ti matters for the truth, tecan change or drop parts of info...ti says.. things are missing and trusting that te user can collapse. But doesn't mean their lying either just being more efficient.

    • @kyurei4478
      @kyurei4478 Рік тому

      It can be tricky to identify cause ni can do something somehow similar. Ni is future oriented so even me, an infj can want to suppress ti informations cause they're useless to reach the goal. This can happen because of the ti coupled with the ne for intps/entps versus the ni which wants to reduce the posibilities. I think the only difference is we won't drop parts of info cause we can still find it personally interesting to know, but we'll eventually admit it just doesn't matter. Intjs are most likely softer than infjs underneath, which is why they hide it, which is the same reason why infjs can appear cold in rare occasions.

      @kyurei4478 thank you for your reply, do you think it's the same if your healthy people,I've seen ni come up with patterns that are seeing more into things that actually aren't that way they perceived it, I mean it can be any function if the persons unhealthy,
      But I'm asking more about "Ni" and patterns..

    • @kyurei4478
      @kyurei4478 Рік тому

      @@pugninja7037 That's indeed a common behavior from unhealthy ni users to perceive more connections into things that actually don't turn out to be this way and persist on it. It's more recurrent for ni users than it would be for other types because they frequently make connections between patterns.
      The interesting thing is that from my experience, unhealthy ni users tend to have the opposite problem to unhealthy ne users which is not making enough distinctions and connections between patterns when they're supposed to be made. Thus they end up perceiving things in a scattered way.

      @@pugninja7037 Of course that still makes sense too, as long as it's not in a unhealthy way. Yes te likes concrete actions. Ni doesn't necessarely want to take action of concrete either but only reaching a precise conclusion. To achieve this it could supress informations as well.
