I tried it, but I'm gonna be honest, I disliked the binary options and sometimes unclear or stupid questions; like one of them basically sounded like: which is better: being logical or a crybaby. I get what the question boils down to, but even being a feeler doesn't mean I am unable to understand that thinkers are a thing? Or like, I'm unorganized and like intuitive stuff, but I know I need some structure to keep me concentrated on tasks I don't like, or if it's events with friends, I need a clear date to emotionally charge up enough as an introvert.
Tier 6-specifically “can’t stop thinking about type“ is what prohibits me from swapping my snorkel gear for my scuba gear. I love the thumbnails for the different tiers, btw.
I'm an ENTP at mid-tier 6 and it sucks lmao. I've had my ego shattered randomly because of a random thought that led me down a rabbit hole with an unfavorable outcome. I think I'll forget about it in a few months hopefully, but inf Si might be a beach.
As INTJ I think there are levers that can switch attention. If you don't want to think about something interesting, think about something more interesting. such as creating a cozy garden in the backyard, making a show, traveling and so on
@@mokshalani8414 It's easy. Nothing matters so basically just enjoy mbti, the memes, everything. Don't take it too seriously and do whatever you fell like doing. Live, laugh, cry, all that stuff. Do this and you'll get off the rabbit hole. An infp advice for ya.
I normally don't watch the more educational stuff you do, but wanted to say that the way this was filmed and edited made me so much more into it. Great work.
When he said that there was something in tier 6 he didn’t want to mention I expected it to be the theory that includes the polr function AKA the blind spot
Everything in tier 5 and some aspects in tier 6 apply to me. It was really interesting to see the progress divided into different levels. I can totally see myself in all those levels, earlier when I didn't know that much about mbti. It's nice to know how far I've already come. Being deep into myers briggs sure is both a blessing and a curse.
For me I'm Tier 4. I remember how I got into MBTI. I've been obsessed with the Introvert/Extravert differences and how I related to the Introverts 'soo much', so naturally I'd Google "Introvert Memes", "things Introverts relate too", etc and I cam across FJ. Time after I got to know FJ's channel and came across his MBTI videos. My first thought was "this looks so cool, but I don't understand the letters:( It's definitely something I might be interested in", and in true INTP fashion, a got hooked, fell in the rabbit hole, and do this, haven't come out. At first, I would watch FJ's videos, think "Oh, I relate to this type, perhaps I'm an "s". What's "s"? ..."Sensor"? Maybe, oh wait, I relate to "j"". I'd memorise what the letters were, and make notes on type stereotypes and see which I relate to., and eventually learn the types I took 16 Personalities, passed through the "-t/-a" phase, learned the website is inaccurate, live through a mistype, and pass through the Tiers. I'd get regular doubts on my type afterwards, until it stuck. Learned about the functions, and that everyone shows traits of other types, so it's not all black and white.
Also INTP (still having some doubts but at this point I'm almost certain of it and I'm like ugh I hate my type, why can't I be ENTJ), somewhere between tier 5 and tier 6. A year ago I was at about tier 2 or something but I started diving deep once I started typing my characters because I was like "Oh this character must be an ESTP but how do I know for sure he's an ESTP?" Then I got deep down into cognitive functions and whenever I'm writing I'm thinking "now this character is using their Ni in this scene, the other is using their Se and that makes them clash." I am also annoyed by people who compare MBTI to astrology, I mean sure, MBTI has its flaws but most of the time those people have surface knowledge and base their opinion on stereotypes instead of trying to dive deeper and understand that MBTI is more of a tool to understand your cognitive process and it's less arbitrary than say, believing that everyone born in the same month shares the same personality. And I've seen plenty of people going into MBTI subreddits and saying "everyone here is mistyped" and I just think it's funny because they're typing other people merely by their posts and unless you interact with someone on a daily basis you cannot see a consistent pattern that allows you to arrive at a sensible conclusion about their type.
Regarding the 6th tier: as an INFJ, there was a moment I hated the Extraverted Feeling. I found it very tiresome and limiting. I wished to focus more on myself, my needs and to stop ignoring my problems. Recently I've learned to treat function stack as superpowers, kinda like the ones the X-men have. The functions are great on their own, but it is not a good idea to use it all the time without limits. Now I know the Fe is actually a gift :)
I started hating the Inferior Se. But I know world is all about balance and trade offs. So I accepted it as a weakness. Along with all the weakness and blessings Ni and Fe brings. -INFJ But haha XD the way you treat the functions as superpowers, sure shows that INFJs have a weird way to think about things. And always in the big picture, they are never satisfied with one time solution.
@@LordNNero Same. Having Se as inferior really gets in my ways of being efficient everytime. But unlike you, I don't accept it as a weakness. I know that even if it is an inferior, it is still in me, and for years, I am trying to utilize it on daily basis. I am not successful on regularly using it as it exhausts me more than usual but I believe it's worth the effort (altho unnecessary stress is one of the results of doing so.). But this difference in approach is normal. I am a xNTx(constant improver) anyways. I even like to think that *"Weakness is a social construct"* (I know, it's an unhealthy mentality but it is just me anyways, and it exists just to discipline myself more). INTJ.
INTJ here. The visual typing is so accurate, yesterday I went to do an exam and the moment I saw this guy enter the room I thought “This is the most INTP person I’ve ever known”. I mean, when I finished my exam I laid down on the table to get some sleep, I looked up and I saw him doing the same thing. What’s more INTP than that? MBTI is really funny sometimes
As an INTP, learning about MBTI has been quite the dangerous development hahaha. Although MBTI likely does not have enough parameters to accurately define and classify every neurotypical human, it's a fascinating guideline that has led me to a significant amount of self knowledge. I'm not 100% sure if it is a "psuedoscience" or not, but I believe that many people can gain a lot of self insight by finding out their type. Typing yourself raises a lot of introspective and existential questions about psychology that are at least fun to think about. It's important to remember though that your personality is NOT made entirely of four traits and a few cognitive functions. Everyone's personality is nuanced and specifically unique. MBTI is just a generalization and it is not an end all be all. It's more like a spectrum of traits and functions rather than concrete ones.
Its a soft science. hard sciences are proven facts but a good chunk of pyschology is soft science in which we dont have the tools necessary to hard prove these things exist. and yes the 8 functions dont define your entire personality they serve to define the specifics aspects of your cognition patterns. for example it obv doesnt explain childhood trama or how you adapted to the world.
As an INFP I've noticed that only after reaching tier 7 was the best thing that has ever happened to me since getting into MBTI. Everyone uses all of the functions just a little more than others, as you get older you use the weaker functions regardless of whether you practice them or not. Life just works out that way. It's nice to revisit MBTI videos once and a while, and the community is the most accepting that I have experienced.
I'm now at level 4 or 5 But as you defined, I do not want to go to level 6 But the information you provided was really great so that I could do my job better and better I teach programming on my UA-cam channel and as it was defined, this information really helps me to teach better and better attract the interest of the audience. Thank you very much
I'm probably at 1.5, not even a solid 2. Sort of like my bra size, no desire to really fill a bigger cup. Too time consuming. I am interested in how blood types, Chinese zodiac, Vedic astrology and all the other typing things intertwine. They all affect personality. Just like I want to be thorough with everything, and it just gets way too overwhelming and I give up. Like reading the Bible, feel like I've should also read the removed books of the Bible in the oldest format I can understand, and read the book of Mormon, the Quran, the Torah, the Nag Hammadi, the Gospel of the Holy Twelve, Emerald Tablets of Thoth, and so many others. How can you understand if you don't read them all?
@@erikadavis21 First of all, this video is very helpful in recognizing the levels of awareness about a topic Which helps me to say things so that people who learn from me can reach lower levels easily and with sufficient knowledge. The second was about how I explained things in a way that all personality types could understand. Of course, it was not related to this video, but knowing the personality types really helped me a lot If you are curious my character type is intj
@@recoveringsoul755 It depends on how curious you really are about it The more curious you are, the more motivated you are to research and do it (This is what I do in my training, I can easily arouse a person's curiosity about a subject with a lot of research I have done) If you want to know how to arouse your curiosity You can work on fortifications and structures engraved in your mind Try to convince your mind with logical reasons that this is an interesting and useful topic You will find that after a while your motivation to do that work or research on that topic gradually increases This is exactly what I did with my mind For a long time I tried to make difficult issues interesting and exciting to my mind And after that I can not stop searching Google for various issues and I am always looking for a new issue to solve and I really enjoy solving these issues
Whoa. That's very impressive and extensive. I've always thought of myself (and many, many others) as a student of life, so to speak. I'm fascinated with MBTI in relation (if any😉) with cluster b personally disorders. Narcissistic Personality, Borderline, Histrionic, etc plus the comorbidities... All relating to a new umbrella term under C-PTSD coming after the DSM 5. Anyway, your comment is why I bother to read the comments here and there. Your interests are fascinating and impressive in their depth and I'm glad you're out there experiencing them.
My daughter quizzes me all day with saying "what do you think (insert celebrity or acquaintance) personality is?" I have gotten one wrong out of hundreds...so tier six here🤚😑😬
I can't type at all, I've studied the cognitive functions but still can't seem to be able to pinpoint them on other people correctly. How do you do that?
14:45 Oh! This reminds me of something I heard about Fe types and Fi types when they compliment someone.. For example Fe be like: "You're really talented and wonderful!" And Fi be like: "This thing that you have done is really good because you did it in this way....(*explains more reasons..*)."
Please do a video on mid-life crises. I'm a 45yo INTP who's been more and more in touch with my inferior Fe, and it'd be very informative to see you explain this process for all types.
As I have aged I think I have become less and less in touch with my inferior Si... or at least right now highly malfunctioning.... if you have not seen this one, He does have a video on type development ua-cam.com/video/1I18hsgbEt0/v-deo.html
@@carissahill3414 Thanks. I had watched that one already. What I mean would be more specific, although I'm not quite sure how to phrase that specificity...
“Where are you on the iceberg? At the tippy top, like a little baby? Or at the depths?” 🤣🤣🤣 Are you at the depths? How much knowledge do you need to be there? 🤨🤨
I’m watching this as tier 1, I’m not super interested in learning about this stuff, but I love seeing how my personality type is portrayed in your skits and analysis vids. Also you have great editing and apparently rapping skills.
That sponsorship ad was cringe yet fun. 😂🤣 Nice job getting me to actually listen to it! You mentioning the 16personalities not being a true MBTI test reminded me of someone who is writing an autobiography and this is exactly where she got hers and is using seriously and I just can't. 🙃
I love this so much. One of my best friends is like a 5 and halfway to 6. He went so far as to write a 60 page paper about everything in detail. Oh and did I mention he wrote the paper for fun. Then after he writes the paper, he explains everything to me bringing my level from a 2 to a 4. All while my SE hero is trying to jump ship every 3 and a half seconds cuz it got bored of his explanations. Lol Keep up the great vids
I'm at tier 6, awesome 🤣🤣 at this point i'm always piecing together my life situations and social interactions by types. The whole 16p thing really did help me unearth a lot about myself. I've tested infp from the start and that's what i've always been to this day. When i'm applying type to my life i don't necessarily use it as a strict guideline (doesn't account for nurture), yet if you watch enough you do seem to find counterbalances in how people percieve/make decisions in the world (cognitive axes) and it can be a great tool when applied properly. It's helped me so much in developing my relationships and communicating in ways others will be receptive to and understand. It's helped me rationalize everything that goes on in my head so i can actually find some way to express it. That's no small thing. It's also helped me tackle some of my biggest insecurities, fears, and doubts. I was in Te grip for years, but i'm me now and i'm keeping it that way. Very much worth the journey. Thank you for all you do FJ 👌
Frank, I was thinking, "When will he say, 'soon you'll start to wonder if the mind is even real'". Then you said, "Is any of this real?" Honestly did not think I'd be at the bottom of the iceberg as an ESFJ. It happened just like you said, read Briggs Meyers book, read an introduction to Jung, read "Man and His Symbols" and just finished "The Psychology of the Unconscious Processes." All the Continental I read in undergrad is going to lead me straight to the "there is no mind" conclusion. 😬 Still, rocking this FJ stickers on my bottles and enjoying your content.
As an INFP I feel like I am.....far gone... Now I know why I hate my own type and I always try to put everyone into their type. I thought that so I would understand the best way to communicate with them, but...yeah, maybe its all just me being obsessed with MBTI. :) Oh and the FI vs FE smile is so true,. Thank you, FJ.
INFJ > INFP > ISFJ > INTJ > INTP ......I finally found my type .......as an INTP... I'm clearly in the fourth stage....but the 6 stage is somehow relatable in the past few days....Haha I won't regrets this....Thanks for this video..FJ💗❤💕💖💗💝💞💟
For me it's more like: INFJ>>INFJINFP>>>>INFJ>>>>>INFJ>>ISFJ>>>INFJINFJ>ISFJ>INFJ..I give up I wish there was a way I can really know what my type is..
I'd say I'm still tier 4 but already adopted few things from tiers below. It's probably because I'm INTJ, I'm certain about it and thus for me it's natural to be open-minded and see patterns in other people. However MBTI is more like hobby to me than field of study so I don't bother myself with reading hard psychology stuff . Btw. I have love-hate relationship with my Te 😅
@@erikdekker1 yeah, I personally like psychology and mostly I like whatever typology (be it MBTI or color schemes, lol). However I feel that if I want to go deeper in MBTI, I need broader knowledge in psychology, so I don't think I'll ever reach tier 6. Despite this I think we tend to go deeper in whatever field than most people in general.
@@Jooney91 Probably my Ne and Fe functions. Ne because it makes me spend way too much time on "educational procrastination" and also because when I have options that makes me indecisive. Fe because I always end up thinking I'm going insane for having normal emotional reactions to things, and comparing my emotional responses to those of "normal" people, and hoping that if I ignore my problems they will go away.
Lol, I'm in Tier 6. Yeah, I have a hate/love relationship with my type - literally, I was telling my sister how I hated being an INFP and I needed to consciously remind myself that I have an amazing type and I AM capable of meeting my goals or whatever. But yeah, Tier 6 is the worst. But also amazingly cool. AND YES I HAVE GOTTEN INTO VISUAL TYPING IT'S ALSO COOL!!! (But I take it with a grain of salt, of course.)
I am certified and up to my ankles in Tier 5, and I won’t go further. Being a therapist, MBTI is intriguing but insufficient (just as any theory or model would have its strengths and limitations). I need to integrate several other frameworks for understanding human behaviour and helping my clients.
Tier 4 with a sprinkle of 6? - i.e. I try to type people in real life (but not out loud, just for funsies) and on tv shows etc, and don't care if it's all fake, it's still interesting to me - and I have a giggle when someone seems like a textbook type!
Dude your videos have just kept on getting better and better! Also I love your sense of humor, feels like some of Jreg's style rubbed off on you too lol. keep up the great work!
Omg the way frank described this journey I've gone on down the iceberg is so accurate. I doubted my type at the start plainly because I didn't understand how mbti worked. Kept typing as intj and fell under the I'm an intj spell. Then I discovered good old jung and cognitive functions and starting doubting my type more and more and mbti as a whole. Eventually settled for being an entp as it made the most sense but then theres also enfp, infp and entj so I came to the conclusion that maybe there's something not quite developed enough in mbti theory?
I was ENFP when I first took test, it made no sense to me. Then I learned about MBTI types and cognitive functions then I realized I fit perfectly into ENFJ. As I learned more about MBTI, I discovered myself better. Even found how I can have a career that will be fun and enjoyable even in relationships too. But idk which tier I am in, 4/5/6. Ti always gives me trouble (overthinking/over sensitive) but knowing it helps override it consciously. I would recommend everyone to go deep into personality type to enjoy life a bit better.
Frank, I really like your advertisement sections. I usually suffer through someone's sponsor message, but I actually look forward to your creativity. 🥰
I'm in Tier 2, sticking my snorkel mask down into Tier 3, but I'm Tier 6 in the sense that I want to be a different type. I mean, it's hard enough being an INFP without Frank always talking about us at the end of all the videos. 😆
I love watching your educational videos! Not to mention your other funny side of productions, in which they are always the best treat of the day... Still learning from your educational ones, loving & understanding myself better than before... Vice versa, people around me! Thank you so very much for your dedication!!! Best!!! 💗
Realizing being a wild fool in the forest allowed me to put on a mermaid tail and just swim right on down to the "Under the Sea" party to repeatedly pop back up to party with the forest dwellings who ignorantly think I am a JUST a wild fool. Thanks for the video Frank! Love your ads! And insight!
Lol - this is so helpful for curbing typing angst! I was at ~tier 3, borderline 4 (discovering the cognitive functions & wondering if I'd been mis-typed??), before I came to this wonderful channel; now I'm solidly at tier 4 :), seeing indeed that everyone does everything, and sliding emotionally (through INFP Fi?) towards tier 6 (especially about kicking against my own type, and also seeing type now in EVERY tv show I watch, lol!). But I have definitely skipped the good research of tier 5, lol! :) So I need to learn more, lol!! Thanks for making all of us in the MBTI community feel so seen, no matter what level of the iceberg we are at! And, your educational videos are so helpful - I have binged them all over the last month or so, lol!! MBTI as seen and explained through FJ's eyes, rock on! :)
My first test was done by professional councillors I'm family therapy did few tests over the years always get ENFP never hated my type or wanted to be another I know a bit but not obesessed or into typing others instead I use logic. It's an overall general type rather than an exact mould, there are many factors like upbringing, culture and environmental factors, etc, that help shape a person. It's meant to help not be a rule for life to live by.
Exactly!! Thank you so much for saying that...Its nice to know that some people arn't obsessed over the different personality types. I always have said this is like a core of a person but each persons' background, upbringing and even trauma can shape them and their responses into many areas that have similarities to the other types. We all have many facets to our personality and to lump people into a specific category is narrow minded and just ridiculous. The Meyers Briggs should be taken as helpful info instead of an exact science.... each person is unique and their experiences have shaped them into who they are that cant be stereotyped and put into a tidy box.
@@citygirl999 sorry for the late reply didn't get a dang notification.. Thanks UA-cam.. Yes, see people treating this like astrology like I'm a libra so I can be a dick and it's fine cause it's my personality... Same thing here like take it way too far or add their trauma into it and say but all XFps are like this... Uhh no.. No they not lol
This is totally a stereotype but every INTP I know (including myself) wears glasses. It makes me wonder if there is something sub conscious about physically appearing like the stereotype of a personality type that causes people to be more likely to mistype to that type.
My INFJ daughter gave me a test and has accurately typed me as a ENFP. She has been right about the type she said everyone was so far, as per your sketch videos (at least all the ones I’ve seen so far).
Lol Just started the video, so funny already 😂 I knew I had more to learn. And, honestly, I love that. But, at the same time, apparently I dove deeper than I thought I did... But hey, that makes sense too. (Or maybe I should start stop here?? It's so hard, though!! I just got into the 6th tear... I'm addicted!) That's awesome... Thank you, Frank.
Tier 7 - the return home after the hero journey, to the surface, to touching grass. After you realized that none of this might be real, you start to vibe-type people based on the first glance without giving much thought to whether it is correct or not; you may type people by the resemblance of their look to 16personalities caricature.
I've graduated from an infj to intj-t. Meaning my truest self. Feels good, better, freeing, don't put up with narc's, more than a minute Now. I'm not afraid to be alone anymore but am content. Although want that special person in my life with equity. I'm more on top of my evaluations and no need to second guess myself. So calming, maybe grounding is helping me, since I've been over the top absolutely highest anxiety, sooo enjoying being calm and thinking through the up and downs of daily life. Balance, is a good thing. Not over- spending my energy, at this point. Not over thinking, driving myself to the brink. But still analyzing and evaluating and thinking out side the box. I'm still me but Better 🥳 thank you for reminding me about the personality tests. I was infactically more prone to answering with an unfiltered honesty. Thanks FJ.
I’m experiencing a lot in tiers 4-6, tbh. I’m a proud sensor, but the dumb are often proud 😂 I love how the further down the iceberg you get, the more Frank looks like a jazz musician. I definitely missed the memo about the Fi smile because I always have a big, huge smile that total gives people the wrong idea about how approachable I am.
I sometimes feel that being an intuitive type, and even having Introverted Intuition as my main function, that I am less smart than others. I have many "ditzie" moments. However, as I have grown into my adulthood I have realized a lot of that is my ADD. But at the same time, I am able to see when my introverted intuition is over used now and why I get overwhelmed so easily with hands on tasks (such as normal things, like chores and responsibilities)- and I learned that Extraverted Sensing is my weakest function. So it all makes sense when you analyze yourself. But anyway, I do think my intuition is a super great gift, and it can make me proud of the way I can process certain situations, especially with the little amount of information given (intuition can help fill in the gaps of unknown info). So sometimes I do feel pretty smart- my bosses actually want to promote me also. However when I see my sensing skills lack, I start to wonder and doubt if I am ready for such a position. But the truth is that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and it's best to accept them, but also work on improvement rather than using your typology as an excuse. It has rly helped me understand myself and my peers more clearly.
13:30 First of all, mad rapping skills, my guy! Lol! Secondly...speaking on cognitive functions and personalities (or personas) my nephew introduced me to a PS4 game exactly about those things! It's called Persona5...and if you can autopilot your nature to critique new things into oblivion and just put a solid few hours of game play time into it...you'll be pleasantly surprised! Its...a tool...and it is uniquely healing my psyche in a way nothing else has...information needs purpose...life application...to motivate further exploration and interest in the subject, if nothing else...so, yeah,, it needs to be useful...you find it useful to teach others..it's honorable and your teaching style is entertaining and easy to digest...your videos have made it possible for me to not feel weak when admiting I don't have all the answers...and when I eventually create my 9/11 era las Vegas comicbook universe...I'll have done all the foot work in advance...and these personality types will create the depth, believability, and structure I need then to have...almost like a personality algorithm...patterns of reaction, behavior, choices, and beliefs...I'll be using the 16 personalities, archetypes, and my own personal experiences and observations of people that I've made in Vegas and in general (paired with the character profiles I intend to make of endearing and relatable tv, video game, book, and movie characters) to create the chara ters in my comics ..!! ...im.rambling...thank you...for making all this make sense and be fun at the same time..You are James...Frank James...stirred- never shaken, lol.✌🍿
I can safely say that I'm currently advancing from Tier 3 to Tier 4, since I've recently started learning more about the cognitive functions, I start relating to some of them and just a few days ago I got into the mistype theory. Even I recently found out I was a mistyped INFJ that proved to be an ISFP in reality, beating down any prejudices I've had about Sensing Types. I admit that Tier 6 scares me.
I wasn’t sure if I was in the sixth tier or not, but then you said typing all of the time, even in tv shows and movies. It’s such a natural thing for me to do, that I didn’t really think about it too much, but I’ve been trying to type all of the characters of every movie and show I’ve watched for the past year. And I’m not sure how I should feel about that😂
I feel like I am a Tier 4.5 in general but a tier 6 in regards to my own type (INTP). I also feel like the walking stereotype of an INTP myself. Very informative, I am proud to be a niche expert on yet another topic!
I use MBTI to gain a deeper understanding of neurology and neuropsychology so, at that point, it gets interesting if you use it trans-contextually to gain multiple perspectives of different areas. Never let this personality typing system trick you into thinking in a categorical way (your brain loves that) because it could be dangerous for your mental health. Really, there is much more than just MBTI. Just sayin that, do whatever you want. But y'all are warned.
Btw, I love the 90's rap video. I didn't know that there were 16 personality websites back in 1995. I honestly was bopping to that, FJ. It was awesome. 😂
As an intj his is so accurate, we be searching for all types of knowledge and we be wanting to find every inch of the way everything operates and I can say I anylaze all the 16 mbti personalities, my twin bro(who is an enfj) managed to convince me to take it and since then I was obsessed cuz it literally explained why I am the way I am. Where my architects at? Comment below(other types are free to do so as well).
Damn, I feel this! In the beginning my results always facilitated between ISFJ and ISFP - with time I’ve just habitually started answering all the questions like it would be expected from ISFJs. A few months later I’ve let myself “type” by a strange in the internet via voice chat - they typed me as an INFP and surprise; suddenly I’ve only scored INFP in every Test I did. I hate that humanity is a lie
I admire FJ’s courage for doing these videos. I wonder though if some of the things he did keep him up at night. I know it would keep me up, cringeing and regretting. 😂 Great job! Don’t stop doing what you’re doing. 🙌🏽🤘🏽
The 6th tier about hating your own type is so freaking accurate. I feel like us INFPS are the least valued by society out of all the types. I would give anything to be like an ESFP or something and have Se as my dominant function and be popular and social and living life to the fullest instead of being too shy to say hi the cashier without awkwardly looking at the ground and not even knowing how to tie my shoelaces. Or basically any other type I sometimes feel would be better.
The way you went through the tiers was as if you described my MBTI journey to the T lol! Not surprised I'm Tier 6 but I usually don't do visual typing or anything and my 'typing everything I come in contact with' mode is much more in balance, I related to every word you spoke about in this video and it's pretty hilarious cuz I've been following your channel for so long (with diff accounts might I add- cuz I keep switching for REASONS..) and most of my knowledge comes from your videos cuz you're my fav amongst the many 👐

I'm so glad if FJ posted early 👏
Mr. James, may I offer a suggestion for a future video?
I tried it, but I'm gonna be honest, I disliked the binary options and sometimes unclear or stupid questions; like one of them basically sounded like: which is better: being logical or a crybaby. I get what the question boils down to, but even being a feeler doesn't mean I am unable to understand that thinkers are a thing? Or like, I'm unorganized and like intuitive stuff, but I know I need some structure to keep me concentrated on tasks I don't like, or if it's events with friends, I need a clear date to emotionally charge up enough as an introvert.
That ad was the best lol
The amount of work you put into promoting your sponsor really deserves a round of applause 😂 (and a grammy)
And this comment too deserves a trophy for acknowledging FJ's effort on that work

Sponsors should pay FJ like 10,000$ for every video because he really puts his everything and sponsors the duck out of it
LOL i will show them your comment
yeah dude..
seriously
I know of a youtuber who openly admits that they get about 20k from their sponsors so Frank should definitely be getting more from his sponsors
Tier 0 sponsor comments are the most liked. Uff da!

Hello there
what is this a crossover episode
Tier 6-specifically “can’t stop thinking about type“ is what prohibits me from swapping my snorkel gear for my scuba gear. I love the thumbnails for the different tiers, btw.
I'm an ENTP at mid-tier 6 and it sucks lmao. I've had my ego shattered randomly because of a random thought that led me down a rabbit hole with an unfavorable outcome. I think I'll forget about it in a few months hopefully, but inf Si might be a beach.
As INTJ I think there are levers that can switch attention. If you don't want to think about something interesting, think about something more interesting. such as creating a cozy garden in the backyard, making a show, traveling and so on
Frank, your sponsorship spots are getting exponentially better with each video. Gonna have to watch that again 🤣
haha thanks, i try to have fun with them
Frank is awesome.

I guess I'm in tier-7. I've moved on from my obsessive phase of MBTI and am enjoying your content just for entertainment.
How do you do that? I just keep going deeper & deeper... Where did this rabbit hole bottom out for you?
@@mokshalani8414 I just chose not to go deeper into the rabbit hole
@@g.i.r.l. yeah i just moved away from the iceberg
@@mokshalani8414 It's easy. Nothing matters so basically just enjoy mbti, the memes, everything. Don't take it too seriously and do whatever you fell like doing. Live, laugh, cry, all that stuff. Do this and you'll get off the rabbit hole. An infp advice for ya.

MC FJ
TRUE LMAO
I normally don't watch the more educational stuff you do, but wanted to say that the way this was filmed and edited made me so much more into it. Great work.
They are not that educational. You can make your system of personalities if you want
pls do a 16 personalities when they are with their best match. that's would be nice. thanks for your hard work!
That's hilarious, cause in this video Frank said that there is no such a thing like ideal partner-type
When he said that there was something in tier 6 he didn’t want to mention I expected it to be the theory that includes the polr function AKA the blind spot
Same I was expecting him to talk about things like shadow functions and CPT.
Socioni- [gunshot]
@@modove2842 whats wrong with socionics? 😃
@@rawdogger699 oh I love it, it just feels like how complex everything is might put it around tier 6/have some people rib on it
Yea integrating the shadow and more carl jung stuff, its funny i got into carl jung before mbti and i felt like tier 6 almost the same day i started
Everything in tier 5 and some aspects in tier 6 apply to me. It was really interesting to see the progress divided into different levels. I can totally see myself in all those levels, earlier when I didn't know that much about mbti. It's nice to know how far I've already come. Being deep into myers briggs sure is both a blessing and a curse.
For me I'm Tier 4.
I remember how I got into MBTI. I've been obsessed with the Introvert/Extravert differences and how I related to the Introverts 'soo much', so naturally I'd Google "Introvert Memes", "things Introverts relate too", etc and I cam across FJ.
Time after I got to know FJ's channel and came across his MBTI videos. My first thought was "this looks so cool, but I don't understand the letters:( It's definitely something I might be interested in", and in true INTP fashion, a got hooked, fell in the rabbit hole, and do this, haven't come out.
At first, I would watch FJ's videos, think "Oh, I relate to this type, perhaps I'm an "s". What's "s"? ..."Sensor"? Maybe, oh wait, I relate to "j"". I'd memorise what the letters were, and make notes on type stereotypes and see which I relate to., and eventually learn the types I took 16 Personalities, passed through the "-t/-a" phase, learned the website is inaccurate, live through a mistype, and pass through the Tiers. I'd get regular doubts on my type afterwards, until it stuck. Learned about the functions, and that everyone shows traits of other types, so it's not all black and white.
Also INTP (still having some doubts but at this point I'm almost certain of it and I'm like ugh I hate my type, why can't I be ENTJ), somewhere between tier 5 and tier 6. A year ago I was at about tier 2 or something but I started diving deep once I started typing my characters because I was like "Oh this character must be an ESTP but how do I know for sure he's an ESTP?" Then I got deep down into cognitive functions and whenever I'm writing I'm thinking "now this character is using their Ni in this scene, the other is using their Se and that makes them clash."
I am also annoyed by people who compare MBTI to astrology, I mean sure, MBTI has its flaws but most of the time those people have surface knowledge and base their opinion on stereotypes instead of trying to dive deeper and understand that MBTI is more of a tool to understand your cognitive process and it's less arbitrary than say, believing that everyone born in the same month shares the same personality.
And I've seen plenty of people going into MBTI subreddits and saying "everyone here is mistyped" and I just think it's funny because they're typing other people merely by their posts and unless you interact with someone on a daily basis you cannot see a consistent pattern that allows you to arrive at a sensible conclusion about their type.
I know right. I find myself between Tier 5 and 6 likewise.
The cloverleaf ad needs a vdo of its own. I can watch it all day.
We agree!
ESTP’s definition of “dangerous”: drag racing
FJ’s definition: explaining dubious theories (like visual typing) to people
Regarding the 6th tier: as an INFJ, there was a moment I hated the Extraverted Feeling. I found it very tiresome and limiting. I wished to focus more on myself, my needs and to stop ignoring my problems. Recently I've learned to treat function stack as superpowers, kinda like the ones the X-men have. The functions are great on their own, but it is not a good idea to use it all the time without limits. Now I know the Fe is actually a gift :)
I started hating the Inferior Se. But I know world is all about balance and trade offs. So I accepted it as a weakness. Along with all the weakness and blessings Ni and Fe brings. -INFJ
But haha XD the way you treat the functions as superpowers, sure shows that INFJs have a weird way to think about things. And always in the big picture, they are never satisfied with one time solution.
Haha same. I have this hate love relationship to my Fe ^^
@@LordNNero Same. Having Se as inferior really gets in my ways of being efficient everytime.
But unlike you, I don't accept it as a weakness. I know that even if it is an inferior, it is still in me, and for years, I am trying to utilize it on daily basis. I am not successful on regularly using it as it exhausts me more than usual but I believe it's worth the effort (altho unnecessary stress is one of the results of doing so.).
But this difference in approach is normal. I am a xNTx(constant improver) anyways. I even like to think that *"Weakness is a social construct"* (I know, it's an unhealthy mentality but it is just me anyways, and it exists just to discipline myself more). INTJ.
INTJ here. The visual typing is so accurate, yesterday I went to do an exam and the moment I saw this guy enter the room I thought “This is the most INTP person I’ve ever known”. I mean, when I finished my exam I laid down on the table to get some sleep, I looked up and I saw him doing the same thing. What’s more INTP than that?
MBTI is really funny sometimes
everyone in the lowest tier has gone from being proud of their type, to hating it, to indifference
I thought FJ was going to mention the “shadow functions” in tier 6. But I’m probably at tier 4-5.
As an INTP, learning about MBTI has been quite the dangerous development hahaha. Although MBTI likely does not have enough parameters to accurately define and classify every neurotypical human, it's a fascinating guideline that has led me to a significant amount of self knowledge. I'm not 100% sure if it is a "psuedoscience" or not, but I believe that many people can gain a lot of self insight by finding out their type. Typing yourself raises a lot of introspective and existential questions about psychology that are at least fun to think about.
It's important to remember though that your personality is NOT made entirely of four traits and a few cognitive functions. Everyone's personality is nuanced and specifically unique. MBTI is just a generalization and it is not an end all be all. It's more like a spectrum of traits and functions rather than concrete ones.
Its a soft science. hard sciences are proven facts but a good chunk of pyschology is soft science in which we dont have the tools necessary to hard prove these things exist.
and yes the 8 functions dont define your entire personality they serve to define the specifics aspects of your cognition patterns. for example it obv doesnt explain childhood trama or how you adapted to the world.
As an INFP I've noticed that only after reaching tier 7 was the best thing that has ever happened to me since getting into MBTI. Everyone uses all of the functions just a little more than others, as you get older you use the weaker functions regardless of whether you practice them or not. Life just works out that way. It's nice to revisit MBTI videos once and a while, and the community is the most accepting that I have experienced.
ISTJ here, and the thing is, I'm about Tier 6, I just don't reference Old Jung material, and I don't hate my type, since ISTJ's are perfection.
Another ISTJ here. Can confirm. Our type is just perfect.
No
ENTP is perfect
None of you are perfect you guys are just peepeepoopy human beings
Fellow ISTJ, I’m barely at tier 2 💧💧
@@LordDwarf Of course. 100% my fellow ISTJ master race brethren.
You’re right! Now I’m in too deep! I saw the “Never stops watching FJ” and realized I’m already tier 6 at this point!!! 😩💙
I'm now at level 4 or 5
But as you defined, I do not want to go to level 6
But the information you provided was really great so that I could do my job better and better
I teach programming on my UA-cam channel and as it was defined, this information really helps me to teach better and better attract the interest of the audience.
Thank you very much
So do you present your information in a way that could be understood by the different types or what do you mean?
I'm probably at 1.5, not even a solid 2. Sort of like my bra size, no desire to really fill a bigger cup. Too time consuming. I am interested in how blood types, Chinese zodiac, Vedic astrology and all the other typing things intertwine. They all affect personality. Just like I want to be thorough with everything, and it just gets way too overwhelming and I give up. Like reading the Bible, feel like I've should also read the removed books of the Bible in the oldest format I can understand, and read the book of Mormon, the Quran, the Torah, the Nag Hammadi, the Gospel of the Holy Twelve, Emerald Tablets of Thoth, and so many others. How can you understand if you don't read them all?
@@erikadavis21 First of all, this video is very helpful in recognizing the levels of awareness about a topic
Which helps me to say things so that people who learn from me can reach lower levels easily and with sufficient knowledge.
The second was about how I explained things in a way that all personality types could understand.
Of course, it was not related to this video, but knowing the personality types really helped me a lot
If you are curious my character type is intj
@@recoveringsoul755 It depends on how curious you really are about it
The more curious you are, the more motivated you are to research and do it
(This is what I do in my training, I can easily arouse a person's curiosity about a subject with a lot of research I have done)
If you want to know how to arouse your curiosity
You can work on fortifications and structures engraved in your mind
Try to convince your mind with logical reasons that this is an interesting and useful topic
You will find that after a while your motivation to do that work or research on that topic gradually increases
This is exactly what I did with my mind
For a long time I tried to make difficult issues interesting and exciting to my mind
And after that I can not stop searching Google for various issues and I am always looking for a new issue to solve and I really enjoy solving these issues
Whoa. That's very impressive and extensive. I've always thought of myself (and many, many others) as a student of life, so to speak. I'm fascinated with MBTI in relation (if any😉) with cluster b personally disorders. Narcissistic Personality, Borderline, Histrionic, etc plus the comorbidities... All relating to a new umbrella term under C-PTSD coming after the DSM 5.
Anyway, your comment is why I bother to read the comments here and there. Your interests are fascinating and impressive in their depth and I'm glad you're out there experiencing them.

My daughter quizzes me all day with saying "what do you think (insert celebrity or acquaintance) personality is?"
I have gotten one wrong out of hundreds...so tier six here🤚😑😬
I can't type at all, I've studied the cognitive functions but still can't seem to be able to pinpoint them on other people correctly. How do you do that?

Oh! This reminds me of something I heard about Fe types and Fi types when they compliment someone..
For example Fe be like: "You're really talented and wonderful!"
And Fi be like: "This thing that you have done is really good because you did it in this way....(*explains more reasons..*)."
oh my god ive searched mbti iceberg on youtube before but found nothing and here i am

Tier 7 is just Frank James and Nathan Glass, holding their breath and wishing the rest of the world cared about inferior function improvement.
OMG lol
LOL
Have a great day Dr Frank
you too Mike!
I'm at tier 4, personality types are definitely more confusing than I thought and Frank is very accurate about that.
Please do a video on mid-life crises. I'm a 45yo INTP who's been more and more in touch with my inferior Fe, and it'd be very informative to see you explain this process for all types.
As I have aged I think I have become less and less in touch with my inferior Si... or at least right now highly malfunctioning.... if you have not seen this one, He does have a video on type development ua-cam.com/video/1I18hsgbEt0/v-deo.html

A lot of knowledge
I’m watching this as tier 1, I’m not super interested in learning about this stuff, but I love seeing how my personality type is portrayed in your skits and analysis vids. Also you have great editing and apparently rapping skills.
That sponsorship ad was cringe yet fun. 😂🤣 Nice job getting me to actually listen to it!
You mentioning the 16personalities not being a true MBTI test reminded me of someone who is writing an autobiography and this is exactly where she got hers and is using seriously and I just can't. 🙃
FJ I don’t know how you always come up with such creative sponsorship ads. Also I bet you could’ve become a rapper instead of a UA-camr lol
I love this so much. One of my best friends is like a 5 and halfway to 6. He went so far as to write a 60 page paper about everything in detail. Oh and did I mention he wrote the paper for fun. Then after he writes the paper, he explains everything to me bringing my level from a 2 to a 4. All while my SE hero is trying to jump ship every 3 and a half seconds cuz it got bored of his explanations. Lol
Keep up the great vids
Dude.. I wondered when your video gonna come out!
Great video
At this point, I don’t know if I’m here for the video content or the sponsorship advertisements.😄👍
The transition to Sponsorship is so smooth, very nice!
I'm at tier 6, awesome 🤣🤣 at this point i'm always piecing together my life situations and social interactions by types. The whole 16p thing really did help me unearth a lot about myself. I've tested infp from the start and that's what i've always been to this day. When i'm applying type to my life i don't necessarily use it as a strict guideline (doesn't account for nurture), yet if you watch enough you do seem to find counterbalances in how people percieve/make decisions in the world (cognitive axes) and it can be a great tool when applied properly. It's helped me so much in developing my relationships and communicating in ways others will be receptive to and understand. It's helped me rationalize everything that goes on in my head so i can actually find some way to express it. That's no small thing. It's also helped me tackle some of my biggest insecurities, fears, and doubts. I was in Te grip for years, but i'm me now and i'm keeping it that way. Very much worth the journey. Thank you for all you do FJ 👌
This INFP is currently in Tier 4, but has probably wandered around somewhere Tier 5 and 6, then got back up again involuntary and totally by chance.
I am in tier 4 rn and I hope I stay in there, tier 6 is too scary.
Frank, I was thinking, "When will he say, 'soon you'll start to wonder if the mind is even real'". Then you said, "Is any of this real?" Honestly did not think I'd be at the bottom of the iceberg as an ESFJ. It happened just like you said, read Briggs Meyers book, read an introduction to Jung, read "Man and His Symbols" and just finished "The Psychology of the Unconscious Processes." All the Continental I read in undergrad is going to lead me straight to the "there is no mind" conclusion. 😬 Still, rocking this FJ stickers on my bottles and enjoying your content.
As an INFP I feel like I am.....far gone... Now I know why I hate my own type and I always try to put everyone into their type.
I thought that so I would understand the best way to communicate with them, but...yeah, maybe its all just me being obsessed with MBTI.
:)
Oh and the FI vs FE smile is so true,.
Thank you, FJ.
Took the cloverleaf test and the other test I took three times. On both, I’ve always gotten Campaigner/Champion.
ENFP for life!!
Thanks for checking out Cloverleaf. Hope you enjoy the daily coaching tips about your personality type.
I don’t think tests are always accurate, unfortunately.
As an INFJ who's been studying this shizz for 5 years now, i'm shamelessly at level 6
this is so accurate wow
INFJ > INFP > ISFJ > INTJ > INTP ......I finally found my type .......as an INTP... I'm clearly in the fourth stage....but the 6 stage is somehow relatable in the past few days....Haha I won't regrets this....Thanks for this video..FJ💗❤💕💖💗💝💞💟
For me it's more like:
INFJ>>INFJINFP>>>>INFJ>>>>>INFJ>>ISFJ>>>INFJINFJ>ISFJ>INFJ..I give up
I wish there was a way I can really know what my type is..
I'd say I'm still tier 4 but already adopted few things from tiers below. It's probably because I'm INTJ, I'm certain about it and thus for me it's natural to be open-minded and see patterns in other people. However MBTI is more like hobby to me than field of study so I don't bother myself with reading hard psychology stuff .
Btw. I have love-hate relationship with my Te 😅
INTJ too here, I think we're most of the time focused on knowledge like this.
I'm an INTP and I also have a love-hate relationship with my type. Well, mostly hate actually, hehe.
@@erikdekker1 yeah, I personally like psychology and mostly I like whatever typology (be it MBTI or color schemes, lol). However I feel that if I want to go deeper in MBTI, I need broader knowledge in psychology, so I don't think I'll ever reach tier 6. Despite this I think we tend to go deeper in whatever field than most people in general.
@@musika7564 which functions do you hate? 🙂
@@Jooney91 Probably my Ne and Fe functions. Ne because it makes me spend way too much time on "educational procrastination" and also because when I have options that makes me indecisive. Fe because I always end up thinking I'm going insane for having normal emotional reactions to things, and comparing my emotional responses to those of "normal" people, and hoping that if I ignore my problems they will go away.
Lol, I'm in Tier 6. Yeah, I have a hate/love relationship with my type - literally, I was telling my sister how I hated being an INFP and I needed to consciously remind myself that I have an amazing type and I AM capable of meeting my goals or whatever. But yeah, Tier 6 is the worst. But also amazingly cool. AND YES I HAVE GOTTEN INTO VISUAL TYPING IT'S ALSO COOL!!! (But I take it with a grain of salt, of course.)
This is so meta I love it. Also if we're talking about where on the iceberg we are I'm at the bottom of the Mariana Trench 🤣
I am certified and up to my ankles in Tier 5, and I won’t go further. Being a therapist, MBTI is intriguing but insufficient (just as any theory or model would have its strengths and limitations). I need to integrate several other frameworks for understanding human behaviour and helping my clients.
Tier 4 with a sprinkle of 6? - i.e. I try to type people in real life (but not out loud, just for funsies) and on tv shows etc, and don't care if it's all fake, it's still interesting to me - and I have a giggle when someone seems like a textbook type!
Just because it is psuedoscience does not make it fake... One needs to dive deep into the science iceberg though to realize this fact.
Unironically hoped till the end I wasn't too far gone, but I actually am.
Dude your videos have just kept on getting better and better! Also I love your sense of humor, feels like some of Jreg's style rubbed off on you too lol. keep up the great work!
Omg the way frank described this journey I've gone on down the iceberg is so accurate. I doubted my type at the start plainly because I didn't understand how mbti worked. Kept typing as intj and fell under the I'm an intj spell. Then I discovered good old jung and cognitive functions and starting doubting my type more and more and mbti as a whole. Eventually settled for being an entp as it made the most sense but then theres also enfp, infp and entj so I came to the conclusion that maybe there's something not quite developed enough in mbti theory?
It sounds like you're shopping for a type. 😄
@@deconstructing7307 Oh it was way more stressful and tedious than shopping
My entire identity was messed and up in the air and as someone with hight Fi that was NOT fun and eventually I decided I'm too unique for mbti 💁♀️
ENTP makes sense.
I was ENFP when I first took test, it made no sense to me. Then I learned about MBTI types and cognitive functions then I realized I fit perfectly into ENFJ. As I learned more about MBTI, I discovered myself better. Even found how I can have a career that will be fun and enjoyable even in relationships too. But idk which tier I am in, 4/5/6. Ti always gives me trouble (overthinking/over sensitive) but knowing it helps override it consciously. I would recommend everyone to go deep into personality type to enjoy life a bit better.
Okay, the effort put into this rap song is *chef's kiss**
Frank, I really like your advertisement sections. I usually suffer through someone's sponsor message, but I actually look forward to your creativity. 🥰
Hi Frank James
I am a huge fan of your videos and you also
Love from India
Keep on the hardwork
Can't believe tier 6 is the deepest it goes. I feel like I still have so much to learn
Hahaha!!! Your cloverleaf rimes are..........extravagant, but so funny Buddy, James!!!
Pouhzhhhhaaaa
I'm in Tier 2, sticking my snorkel mask down into Tier 3, but I'm Tier 6 in the sense that I want to be a different type. I mean, it's hard enough being an INFP without Frank always talking about us at the end of all the videos. 😆
I was thinking something like this lol. I was about to write a whole paragraph but stopped myself because I realized it just made a complete loop.🤷🙃😂
Lol i was also thinking 😂 he always talk about us in the end 🥲
I love watching your educational videos! Not to mention your other funny side of productions, in which they are always the best treat of the day... Still learning from your educational ones, loving & understanding myself better than before... Vice versa, people around me! Thank you so very much for your dedication!!! Best!!! 💗
Realizing being a wild fool in the forest allowed me to put on a mermaid tail and just swim right on down to the "Under the Sea" party to repeatedly pop back up to party with the forest dwellings who ignorantly think I am a JUST a wild fool. Thanks for the video Frank! Love your ads! And insight!
Lol - this is so helpful for curbing typing angst! I was at ~tier 3, borderline 4 (discovering the cognitive functions & wondering if I'd been mis-typed??), before I came to this wonderful channel; now I'm solidly at tier 4 :), seeing indeed that everyone does everything, and sliding emotionally (through INFP Fi?) towards tier 6 (especially about kicking against my own type, and also seeing type now in EVERY tv show I watch, lol!). But I have definitely skipped the good research of tier 5, lol! :) So I need to learn more, lol!! Thanks for making all of us in the MBTI community feel so seen, no matter what level of the iceberg we are at! And, your educational videos are so helpful - I have binged them all over the last month or so, lol!! MBTI as seen and explained through FJ's eyes, rock on! :)
My first test was done by professional councillors I'm family therapy did few tests over the years always get ENFP never hated my type or wanted to be another I know a bit but not obesessed or into typing others instead I use logic. It's an overall general type rather than an exact mould, there are many factors like upbringing, culture and environmental factors, etc, that help shape a person. It's meant to help not be a rule for life to live by.
Exactly!! Thank you so much for saying that...Its nice to know that some people arn't obsessed over the different personality types. I always have said this is like a core of a person but each persons' background, upbringing and even trauma can shape them and their responses into many areas that have similarities to the other types. We all have many facets to our personality and to lump people into a specific category is narrow minded and just ridiculous. The Meyers Briggs should be taken as helpful info instead of an exact science.... each person is unique and their experiences have shaped them into who they are that cant be stereotyped and put into a tidy box.
As entp I also don't hate my type. Heck, it's one of the most popular types.
But that inferior Si can be a pain sometimes
@@citygirl999 sorry for the late reply didn't get a dang notification.. Thanks UA-cam..

Sadly I think I'm in the sixth tier already. Yes, sadly. If you don't know why that's sad, then good for you.
This is totally a stereotype but every INTP I know (including myself) wears glasses. It makes me wonder if there is something sub conscious about physically appearing like the stereotype of a personality type that causes people to be more likely to mistype to that type.
I am INTP and I never need to wear glasses. It is weird, because whole my family wears glasses.

I’m experiencing a lot in tiers 4-6, tbh. I’m a proud sensor, but the dumb are often proud 😂 I love how the further down the iceberg you get, the more Frank looks like a jazz musician. I definitely missed the memo about the Fi smile because I always have a big, huge smile that total gives people the wrong idea about how approachable I am.
If we were to go deeper, you'll realize that more you learn, lesser you know. Therefore no one is really dumb as equally everyone is.
@@ranapratap4650 Agreed!
Sensors are not dumb
Both sensors and intuitives compliment each other. They're both important
@@derpkipper Very true!
I sometimes feel that being an intuitive type, and even having Introverted Intuition as my main function, that I am less smart than others. I have many "ditzie" moments. However, as I have grown into my adulthood I have realized a lot of that is my ADD. But at the same time, I am able to see when my introverted intuition is over used now and why I get overwhelmed so easily with hands on tasks (such as normal things, like chores and responsibilities)- and I learned that Extraverted Sensing is my weakest function. So it all makes sense when you analyze yourself. But anyway, I do think my intuition is a super great gift, and it can make me proud of the way I can process certain situations, especially with the little amount of information given (intuition can help fill in the gaps of unknown info). So sometimes I do feel pretty smart- my bosses actually want to promote me also. However when I see my sensing skills lack, I start to wonder and doubt if I am ready for such a position. But the truth is that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and it's best to accept them, but also work on improvement rather than using your typology as an excuse. It has rly helped me understand myself and my peers more clearly.
13:30 First of all, mad rapping skills, my guy! Lol! Secondly...speaking on cognitive functions and personalities (or personas) my nephew introduced me to a PS4 game exactly about those things! It's called Persona5...and if you can autopilot your nature to critique new things into oblivion and just put a solid few hours of game play time into it...you'll be pleasantly surprised! Its...a tool...and it is uniquely healing my psyche in a way nothing else has...information needs purpose...life application...to motivate further exploration and interest in the subject, if nothing else...so, yeah,, it needs to be useful...you find it useful to teach others..it's honorable and your teaching style is entertaining and easy to digest...your videos have made it possible for me to not feel weak when admiting I don't have all the answers...and when I eventually create my 9/11 era las Vegas comicbook universe...I'll have done all the foot work in advance...and these personality types will create the depth, believability, and structure I need then to have...almost like a personality algorithm...patterns of reaction, behavior, choices, and beliefs...I'll be using the 16 personalities, archetypes, and my own personal experiences and observations of people that I've made in Vegas and in general (paired with the character profiles I intend to make of endearing and relatable tv, video game, book, and movie characters) to create the chara ters in my comics ..!! ...im.rambling...thank you...for making all this make sense and be fun at the same time..You are James...Frank James...stirred- never shaken, lol.✌🍿
I can safely say that I'm currently advancing from Tier 3 to Tier 4, since I've recently started learning more about the cognitive functions, I start relating to some of them and just a few days ago I got into the mistype theory. Even I recently found out I was a mistyped INFJ that proved to be an ISFP in reality, beating down any prejudices I've had about Sensing Types.
I admit that Tier 6 scares me.
I'm certainly on Tier 5. Also this sort of perfectly represents the confidence - knowledge curve, which is pretty cool
:O the time for posting the video is now changed on Sunday :D I dunno if is Sunday for you haha, before this it was 12am and 1am now is 11pm :D
I wasn’t sure if I was in the sixth tier or not, but then you said typing all of the time, even in tv shows and movies. It’s such a natural thing for me to do, that I didn’t really think about it too much, but I’ve been trying to type all of the characters of every movie and show I’ve watched for the past year. And I’m not sure how I should feel about that😂
I feel like I am a Tier 4.5 in general but a tier 6 in regards to my own type (INTP). I also feel like the walking stereotype of an INTP myself. Very informative, I am proud to be a niche expert on yet another topic!
Me too!
Do you know know your Big Five?
I'm OceAN.
Do the video in vultology! Let's get in deep with FJ...
I have such a dirty mind..
I use MBTI to gain a deeper understanding of neurology and neuropsychology so, at that point, it gets interesting if you use it trans-contextually to gain multiple perspectives of different areas. Never let this personality typing system trick you into thinking in a categorical way (your brain loves that) because it could be dangerous for your mental health. Really, there is much more than just MBTI. Just sayin that, do whatever you want. But y'all are warned.
Btw, I love the 90's rap video. I didn't know that there were 16 personality websites back in 1995. I honestly was bopping to that, FJ. It was awesome. 😂
As an intj his is so accurate, we be searching for all types of knowledge and we be wanting to find every inch of the way everything operates and I can say I anylaze all the 16 mbti personalities, my twin bro(who is an enfj) managed to convince me to take it and since then I was obsessed cuz it literally explained why I am the way I am. Where my architects at? Comment below(other types are free to do so as well).

Here.
Im like in a phase where I spot the same questions and stereotypicly answer to them i got that im an enfp and now im just overthinking every question
Damn, I feel this! In the beginning my results always facilitated between ISFJ and ISFP - with time I’ve just habitually started answering all the questions like it would be expected from ISFJs.
A few months later I’ve let myself “type” by a strange in the internet via voice chat - they typed me as an INFP and surprise; suddenly I’ve only scored INFP in every Test I did.
I hate that humanity is a lie
I admire FJ’s courage for doing these videos. I wonder though if some of the things he did keep him up at night. I know it would keep me up, cringeing and regretting. 😂 Great job! Don’t stop doing what you’re doing. 🙌🏽🤘🏽
The 6th tier about hating your own type is so freaking accurate. I feel like us INFPS are the least valued by society out of all the types. I would give anything to be like an ESFP or something and have Se as my dominant function and be popular and social and living life to the fullest instead of being too shy to say hi the cashier without awkwardly looking at the ground and not even knowing how to tie my shoelaces. Or basically any other type I sometimes feel would be better.
Frank, I'll be back, I have to go click ur link cuz that was the flyest thing I've ever seen🤣
This guy gives me big Gina from Brooklyn 99 energy and I love it lmao
The way you went through the tiers was as if you described my MBTI journey to the T lol! Not surprised I'm Tier 6 but I usually don't do visual typing or anything and my 'typing everything I come in contact with' mode is much more in balance, I related to every word you spoke about in this video and it's pretty hilarious cuz I've been following your channel for so long (with diff accounts might I add- cuz I keep switching for REASONS..) and most of my knowledge comes from your videos cuz you're my fav amongst the many 👐
