- What are the ENTP Personality Types main stressors and anxiety factors? What do ENTPs worry about the most and what scares the mmore than anything? How can the ENTPs grow to deal with and manage stress and anxiety better?
If you're an ENTP in the MBTI, you may experience these patterns when trying to grow and develop yourself. It's common to get stuck in loops and to get habitual about things, to walk in circles, and to avoid challenges.

I'm an ENTP, and that last part about us choosing a path outside our comfort zone even though it's difficult (and knowing our loop is there to lean on if we fail) was encouraging. More ENTP videos please! :)
The thing why i dont commit to an idea is cause im not satisfied with it.
I know i can come up with something better.
I hold a very high Standard to myself.
If i have an idea i think what can happen if i finish it.
If im not satisfied with where it leads me i dont wanna waste energie on it.
This is why i generally dont finish them.
why is this my feelings
literally
lol i think this is why I'm single.
This is definitely one of the reasons why I don't finish things too. But other reasons include either that I can't be arsed or that I feel I have something better or more interesting to do with my time. Usually to me, an unfinished project is a task thats gotten monotonous and I'm dreading picking it up again.
Exactly this, I don't commit to an idea NOT because I always seek novelty. I don't commit to it because I seek perfection. But when I finally succeed at finishing something. Boy, I will admire my creation by looking and relieving it for days feeling proud of myself.
Otherwise u cannot realize your idea . That's another option .
It's absolutely amazing how you step into other people's shoes so well. You're like a Professor X or something. Great videos.
I’m an ENTP but I think one of my strengths is long term vision. My favorite quote is a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. I
Don’t change plans often but when I do it’s after I’ve played out every possible scenario in my head in order to make the best decision or what I think would be the best decision.
Every sentence you pronounced made me feel my anxiety rise a little bit. But darn it, you are right. You got yourself a new subscribers!
I can relate to some things you say, but I cannot relate to the stress part. My struggle is that I do not stick to a project because at some point I can see how it will develop and I know I can do it, but from that point forward it gets just boring. After a few years, I sometimes regret that I did not finish so many projects because I imagine it would have felt nice to have this sense of achievement. And anxiety.. mostly I feel anxiety when I think about my achievements and think that I did not yet found „the project“ that is worth my full dedication, that I long to give.
I literally stopped over 20 times you video and made a word document for answering the questions as they were coming. Thank you, I really needed it.
This was really helpful to me right now, thanks for taking the time to lay it out there!
Love this video so much. Love more practical advice on how to get out of our loop!!!
I am ENTP and marriage for me is just exhusting ... Been with someone forever is just huge deal.
Maybe you need to find a way to change things up together. :)
This is definitely what I needed to hear. I'll listen again tomorrow. Thanks.
You're very helpful to me, Erik. You are great at analyzing ENTPs. Thank you.
This was really helpful, thank you!
Amazing video bro keep em coming!
Hi, I am a female entp. Your channel has made me understand myself better. Thank you. Can you do more videos about entp? Like unhealthy and healthy entp. How to become more healthy entp? I am developing my si, which makes me feel stressed. Can you do videos about how to develop si? And how to keep balanced as an entp? How to time management as entp?
Really great video! Definitely helped :)
One of the best if not the best video I have seen over ENTPs. I didn’t believe I was an ENTP for the longest time but everything ties me to it. The only thing is I feel like I am very emotional but it’s an intelligence- only certain things will get me emotional and I’m not sure how to explain it. Anyway, I feel like my emotional side prevents me from pursuing my goals, like you said, we’re mostly scared of not having any return if we stress and work ourselves a lot; I constantly yearn for validation
amazing, thank you (struggling entp here ;))
Thank you for this! One month of therapy anger and anxiety management was just pointless. And got me more frustrated... But THIS is what I needed to hear !! Again, than you.
"you can always return to your anchor"
THIS IS SO OBVIOUS THAT IT'S HARD TO SEE, I'm a person who steps out of my comfort zones quite a lot, but this sentence alone gave me so much motivation to ease the anxiety in the situations to come, I'll drill this into my head and remind myself everytime, great video, thank you!
Ok so. When you talked about ENTP getting restless and jumping around. . . I had concluded not 10 minutes beforehand that I was frustrated with my weight. I needed to exercise IMMEDIATELY. And I was, at that moment you said something, doing jumpingjacks. 🤣🤣🤣
Great advice
My gathering as an ENTP is that when we are utilizing our NeTi in strength, we are less likely to become stressed or anxious. The moment when we are surrounded by introverted sensing, it falls apart. Once we begin to try new ideas because we want to experience way too many things at once, that's when we become scatterbrained and the procrastination starts because we struggle with which idea is more fun at the moment. Should I do the boring thing to get it out of the way or should I do the fun thing that will keep me occupied all night? It's a struggle between sensing that we cannot seem to understand.
Then it gets worse when we are drowned with our FeSi because when friends come around and they convince us to just take a break, that break can go on for weeks and we end up kicking ourselves. We won't regret it but we kick ourselves anyways LOL
I agree with you i think the stressed aspect comes from Ti Si loops but we're at our best utilizing Ne Ti and Ne Fe
@S0ULxDECiPHER hey you seem to be accurate about the NeTi thing. Can you suggest how do you avoid that or work a way so that one doesn't remain scatter brained and procrastine? Please reply.
Ranjit Pillai Pick a long term goal, or multiple goals if you can’t decide on one 😂. Work towards that goal and develop why you want to achieve that goal. Don’t worry too much about set backs or being in a rut usually you learn something from it that that is invaluable to you. It’s all part of the process. Also work out, it keeps you grounded. Another strange tip getting haircuts, generally grooming and cleaning your room helps to keep that inferior Si at bay.
@@Prometheus7272 thank you for replying. I do have long term goals but in the long term i lose steam and find another one much interesting🤣 Ability to stick to it is concerning. But thanks a lot for your kind reply.
got inspired by u,thank u
I still can't understand how can you explain entps so well without being an entp haha, seriously, I wish I could understand other personalities at this level. Your videos have helped me a lot to understand me better, thank you a looot
Very true man! I thought I was INTJ
Sometimes Being an anchor you forget that you yourself drown to keep the boat.
How do you understand us so well?! Wow!
I don't know which type I am, but I find these advice really usefull.
I think long-term and difficult things I can remember that had done completely were because of the other person stroke my ego. Yep, being challenged helps too.
I am very grateful for the advice, but I am more than satisfied with how many my life is so no thanks
Why do you say Tyrion Lannister is a INFJ when he so ridiculously archetypically ENTP?
Helpful for INTPs too. Good nudge for Si complacency. Cause she can be a soul-smothering B...
this is a real life experience of an ENTP with the long term goal.
Four years ago I set a goal and this goal I have seing it being so near yet so far in the past year. Of course four years ago I knew it would take me this long but now I am here I sometimes suffer from not having it yet. What do I do? simply I tell myself at some point I will get there and now i take the best chances I have now for the medium term goal. Because rn I am so near I cannot talk long term, now is medium term distance. But it's still so far that I cannot enjoy the road because the choice I am going to have to do for this goal is not the best I would like to be doing.
The anchor thing. Knowing you have it there makes much sense...
How do you choose!? - stressed ENTP
Thank you
I get bored very easily and impatient and sometimes gives/does too much/pushes and then it becomes too much and then it doesn't work. I need people to help "make it happen" re the detail or to make it happen
Spot on! I choose my challenges so I create them than someone telling me as then I won't do it lol
4:19 - This is why I'm tempted to start my own business but I choose not too because I can't be arsed putting the time, energy and patience into it long term. And it's also the unpredictability of it. It makes it too risky. I like predictability and guarentees. You don't get predictability and guarentees with starting a business whereas being employeed, you can predict your income. Also, I'm not confident enough in myself that I can make a success of a business. I'm always worried about failure. I can't stand the idea of failing. I have to spend the time needed to investigate all angles and possibilities and the success of a business relies on quick calculated decisions - which I find a difficult thing to do. So by the time I've investigated all angles on each situation that presents itself to me, my business would have folded because my strategy is too time consuming for the business to excel.
Also, the majority of my employment life is that I picked up a bit of experience in lots of different things but never truely mastered anything so I was never recognised as a specialist in anything in particular. So getting someone to give me a job was also difficult. I also had a tendancy to give up on a specific role because it was either too monotonous, didn't pay enough to what I believed I should be getting for the job or that I didn't progress into something bigger and more respectable and rewarding quick enough for my liking. This has made the first 10 years of my adult life particularly difficult because I was never seen as employable until in the last few years where my job experience in something in particular has excelled into something that I now how have recruitment agencies contacting me for work over, which has boosted my ego lately.
Hello, I'm in a similar situation. Could you elaborate on what got you out of it? How did you eventually become employable like that?
Hi, what is it ?
What is the thing that became specialized in it ؟؟؟
؟؟ technology
imma listen to this every night before I sleep. As an entp lets see how long this resolution will last😭
I think most of the uncomfortable difficult situations that I have been I haven't chosen. But the things I am best at are the things I chose to do on my own.🤔
I searched this a bit deep. And you re true. Also true for the sigma males. Forexample i let people help me financially and they fucked me up lots of debts. I dont know its karma or smthng. Maybe because of not collectivist mind, hunter gatherer mind?But its true always.You must be in control of your life even you have to lonely for all your life.
@@antidepresan3394 Even you have to lonely for all your life? I don't understand.
@@cedricburkhart3738 out of the matrix, smthng like that. If you dont correlate it , forget it and focus what i wrote before.
In fact being an entp is being lonely and bored, perpetually, existancially
@@antidepresan3394 You shouldn't know that about me.😣 Maybe I'm not lony or bord most of the time.
School system always links to my anxiety 😣
I tend to look at my ability to master skills as a negative depreciating asset because of the fact that the skillset loses its novelty once it's mastered and I'm onto the next dopamine hit. This brain of mine sure is frustrating... XD
I don't say this lightly... I'm now on my 84th business model :)
@@wearejungians atleast you are working on your projects. It could have been worse.
Watching at 1.5X while reading the comments, just saying.
good video
Thanks Vertex!
Hi there, I was exactly in this situation and made the wrong decision: I was afraid instead of having more tact and waiting and being patient. But now my idea did not work out as the job turned out to be a scam: how do you ENTP deal with failure/ stress/ anxiety?
ENTPs working with the right people... infinity and beyond and fun on the way
Idk why I live in my loop I don't feel the stress. Doesn't makes sense for me to be stressed.
May be I am just unhealthy(?)
My Ne-Fe loop manifest itself by only looking all day, all night whoever to chat like telling jokes, sharing expiriences, etc. Not settling down or doing anything productive and the worst is that I doesn't seem to find a way to balance my functions.
Nice. How can INFJ learn to compassionately relate without interfering? How can the ENTP's relational community help?
Thank you for your expertise and insight, Erik.
I recognize your Fe harmonizing function and the use of an inner stored volume of theory.
INFJ: "They study people with an intensity that’s rarely matched by any other type."
"The higher self can look down at us or look up at us." Thank you for guiding the community to recognize and relate to their Philemon!
Im so happy that I was born a wimp! If I wasn´t, I would weight at least 140Kilos with my 1,70m and died in my early 20´s cuz of heart attack. Ironically I went with 15 years to the gym to gain some bodyweight, then I had a bit structure in my life and my whole life went better. I nearly surrendered to make school until highshool, simply too less endurance. But due to sports with my INTJ - friend, endurance was getting a thing. At least I am student and hardly can imagine to do a vanilla job anymore. I couldn´t even at 20, that was my downfall and stand up/ growing age.
But: is there anyone who had the same experience? Do you know how to progress after university? I landed in a loop for the past 3 years T-T. I think too often to do something other again. And I don´t want to think so. Actually I like my Job and my studying, I know I would regret to leave that behind. But I struggle so hard by losing focus all the time: my Si, or inner feeling betrays me all the time.
I feel called out ahahah
Ich glaube ich hab schon mal gefragt, aber wo kommst du her?...
The last thing you said, that "I chose my stress, I chose my anxieties", had me feeling as strong as I used to after listening to Skyrim. I feel proud to have the anxiety I've had. I feel proud to have been worked up by people complaining about how evil and racist republicans are and how Charlton Heston killed that kid. Micheal Moore is a real ENTJ prick. Knowing that he and Trump are the same type makes me dislike Trump, and besides that I'm practically a republican. That's how much Micheal Moore proved himself to be a prick.
Wait, you lost me at stress and anxiety lol. What's that like?
ha :)
@@ErikThor shhh. You're distracting me!!! Oh this must be what stress feels like lol
bruh, how do you see my mind
2:12 you say the entp struggles with the vision. The Entp is called the visionary due to NT temperament. Think again
Thats just a 16P title used to sell the article...
You know what's the problem with this? As an ENTP I can't get passed only 4 or 5 minutes of this vid haha
NOT REALLY, ENTPS CREATE THEIR OWN JOBS AND ENTERPRISES THAT ALLOW FOR THE LAZIEST AND most Exciting life
You are wrong about most things in this video. Start over
Dude wtf I'm an entp and I have the highest grades in my class. I work hard and I have a vision. It's not that entps are inherently lazy, it's just that most people are inherently lazy. Being productive is a skill that has to be learned, not a part of your personality.
Laura Dowell facts
I have good grades too but its when you loose interest is when things start to slow down and you start to realize early that all you're learning in school is pointless and its not going to be used in real life situations. it can be really demotovating in everything you do in school except for things like career clusters and things you enjoy
Laura Dowell any advice for an ENTP wanting to be at the top of the class too
a lot of misinformation here my friend! ENTPs lacking vision?!?! you clearly haven't done your homework! among the many names ENTPs are also called "The Visionaries"! an ENTPs lacks diplomacy? Where need be ENTPs make superb diplomats in fact I myself am highly diplomatic. You also imply that ENTPs would struggle with a business and this I think varies with the individual as Ben Franklin, Mark Cuban and Thomas Edison were all excellent businessmen. There's godly ENTPs like Alexander of Macedon and beady eyed Joes ENTPs who couldn't carry a stick, just like theres Napoleon like ENTJs and dead beat ENTJs somewhere so place! There's a spectrum of opposites and everything else in between so It all depends on the individual🤷🏻♂️
I don't think he was clear enough here but I think he meant that ENTP's lack the long term vision in order to see something through. ENTP's are called visionaries because their visionary tendancies are short term before they/we want to move onto something new for whatever reason.
Also, starting a business needs that long term vision and commitment and I can truely say that as an ENTP, I have considered starting a business but I've chose not to because I can't be arsed putting the time and the energy into it in case it fails. This is where ENTP's such as myself, lack vision long term because having the business idea is easy enough for an ENTP but it's the unpredictability of having a business, not knowing how much income you'll have from week to week that makes me feel disatisfied with the idea and puts me off.
