Yes! Awesome. I relate to this just about 100%. I've been struggling with whether I am Infj or enfp, which sounds ridiculous, but this is exactly why. This info right here. I am an Infj but I do also have high Ne. My worst struggle in life is self discipline and keeping passion or finding passion for hobbies and so on. Jane of all, master of none type. So right on. I relate to this info more than any video you've put together. Thanks Thor.
Holy Toledo! I scored 100% N the last time I took the test. What you say is so true. I'm an ENFP who needs a lot of alone time. Very Extroverted. Pretty Introverted too. Maybe most ENFPs are that way? I think I am Ne Te, but Ne Fi rings true as well. I mentioned high IQ in your last video, so no need to repeat it here (dang it. too late!) I make friends easily and can almost always find a way to connect with most people. There's a lot to talk about when you know a bit about a lot. I struggle quite mightily when I don't have freedom to create or just freedom to do things my way. I live in my head quite a lot. It's a party in there! I was shocked SHOCKED when I found out not everyone had a song in their head all of the time! Thanx for putting this, and yourself, out there. Maybe I can be less hard on myself for the lack of grit and for overthinking everything. Maybe.
As an ENFJ with an ENFP best friend, you guys ARE A PARTY! I guess it's because ENFJ and ENFP are so similar in some ways. My ENFP friend always inspires me to remember the part of me that is good at tuning into people so that I can better lead them. This is a skill I don't use often enough, but when I do it is incredibly satisfying. A healthy ENFP is an incredible asset to anyone's life though. My friend is charasmatic, friendly, outgoing, kind, loyal, a great listener, and always looking out for the people she loves.
INTP here. That at times has music playing in my head as well. Sometimes i use it to enter the flow state consciously. It progresses constantly, growing more and more complex the more i focus. Im glad to see someone else has something like this
Yes, it's the way you think, and solve problems. I HAD NO EFFORT IN SCHOOL, BUT MY I Q WAS GIFTED. I knew that no matter how much we know we really dont know. But I have concluded, that this world and life is just nothingness unless you have FAITH I V A HIGHER POWER. Great videos... YOU POSSESS AN UNIQUE AND FUN PERSONALITY. YOUR INSIGHTS ON PEOPLES INTERACTIONS ARE SO RIGHT ON....... I AM AN ENFJ, SO A ASK EVERYONE TO DO A PERSONALITY, AFTER I TRY TO GUESS IT.
This video is so timely. I've been needing an authoritative stranger to argue on my behalf against all the haterz' saying I'm an ENTP all the time (cause I'm too cool & intellectual to be an INFJ - {that's the story I tell myself about why my type is constantly in question by people who know me well, at least}). Somehow I think if I send my nay-sayers a video entitled "SUPERINTUITION" to justify my type-elusivity, it's not gonna help my case any ;) Seriously though, I appreciated this video (as it was very validating to my ego).
Hmm i think superintuition is the domain of some subset of N doms (entp, enfp, infj, intj). I would think superintuition means highly developed N in both directions plus a well developed tertiary function. So for eg ENTP w/ superintuition would have INFJ traits as he has Ni and Fe almost as strong as his Ne Ti. Note no mention of Fi. He's not like an ENFP. Similarly an INTJ w/ SuperN would have well developed Ne and Fi, giving them ENFP traits. This is my reading of it anyway.
This video just brought me a lot of reassurance as to why I might be really struggling to find my type... The bullet-points in the description really ring true to me. I think this also possibly relates to the tendency for intuitive types to really struggle with self-typing, despite how much introspection they engage in. That being said I still don't know my type ahahaha
I watched your super intelligence video on Friday, commented on it, thought about it, and dicussed it with my husband on Saturday, was telling him how I don’t even know if I believe in MBTI since I seem to have all the traits, except for developed sensing, so maybe the whole Jungian theory is just another way of separating people, creating further conflict, confusion and pitting people against each other, then we discussed the idea of our thoughts resigning in a cloud rather then in our brain, my theory being that it’s just about how people are processing those communal ideas that are there for everyone, yet not everyone is able to get to them in the same way, or with the same clarity, not being able to interpret them, and now I’ve found this video, that further strengthens this idea, since this is an idea currently “on offer” in the communal cloud, and me finding it here means, for me, that I am steered into it’s direction very strongly at this particular moment.
There. You gave words to my problem today. I have less than a month to paint Christmas presents. I’ve got the ideas. My phone is packed with models of them. I keep messing around getting the materials laid out but it’s just covering for the fact that I can’t decide who gets which one. I’m upset with myself for going in circles with this and it’s always been a great time waster. The computer gave me a great way to store ideas-too great of a function. Now I have more. It doesn’t do anything practical. I wish I had someone to finish my ideas.
Here I am being the one who is driven to warn people..sorry if its annoying. Make sure you stay humble. This is to every intuitive type..and say it to myself constantly. I recently was in conversation with someone who is an I type and this person kept saying as they often do, " I knew I was right." What I saw, as an observer , was that his behavior toward the individual was the catalyst that feed into the behavior of the other person, which thus proved them correct. Sometimes, we choose what we see, and then behave on that. If I have an intuitive sense a person is a certain way, and we treat them as such, we will, indeed, be right. Humility is underrated. Pride is the undoing of every human being. Being able to say, " I was off base, sorry. Forgive me," Is greatness. (I am NOT saying you Erik, have an arrogance problem. Its just a general comment. You are very sweet and appear balanced. This is for people like me. 😇
Hi Erik! Interesting video but a bit short though. I would have loved to have watched more :-) Being a Renaissance man to me is more about being able to learn how to learn, then to be born with a gift or intellect. Knowledge and creative problem solving are what drives me, mastering various areas simply the bi-product of the hunt. My Intuition is quite high and close to 90/10(!) My T an F almost 50/50. I'm slightly more perceiving 60/40 and quite Extroverted about 70/30. I've always preferred NFs to any other group of people due to their conversations, which stimulates my Ne. Looking forward to more great content!
I believe what Youre Good at is Your Natural Affinity , what Enjoy is what You Appreciate n have Gratitude for n Lights You Up n Like to me means what You Respect n or have a Natural curiosity for outside YourSelf as an Individual looking outside from any personal Experience n or Information .
Ii took an intelligence test, and I have musical, creative, and people intellegence. I do extremely well with pattern recognition in IQ, but I really don't think I'm that smart. When I was in first grade I got diagnosed with minimum brain damage, so they constantly gave me IQ tests. Later, in my 20s, they diagnosed me with ADHD after doing another brain scan. I have a hard time staying on task because I get really bored.
I would be curious to see how much being Super N (for instance) correlates with being N-dom in the traditional system. (Eg whether more INxJ are Super N and fewer INxP.) Whether a bit or not at all! Survey??
Personal values plus what is smart and realistic, sounds like an integration of functions and from my understanding, the real question is it developed over time, through Shadow integration, or inborn, or a combination of both
Hi Erik. I have been watching your videos lately and I have found them quite interesting and useful to learn... Thanks for that. I was wonderig, could you make please a video talking about ENTJ's vs ENTP's (in depth) ? ... How could it be possible to identify each one with accuracy in case a person has a "borderline" tendency between this two types? ... I know it sounds weird since most people agree that they are quite different; but I have been struggling with that issue along the last months... I really hope you can. Thanks a lot. 👍☺
I'm just a fool. I have a strange gift of super intuition. It helps me to solve problems and mysteries. I would like to share my experiencies with someone else who is alike.
@@zeshprize1888 tests tend to inflate scores though, so be careful. :) read it as "90% likely you're an intuitive" rather than "you have 90% intuition"
Thank you so much for this. My mbti "journey" has been: Enfp Infj Infp Intp Intj It has been so difficult. Right now I have landed on intj. And am now thinking about whether or not I am autistic....
aniokay Hi, I have moved from infp to infj to intp myself. What exactly made you think intp didn’t fit in your case? For me, I’m pretty convinced of being intp for several years now, mostly because of my very rare but extremely intense experiences of feeling embarrassed somehow (which is a particularly distinguishing feature of intp’s, because of our underdeveloped Fe)
@@kristofpeleman978 Hej Kristof. Thank you for your answer. Hm, I took a test on Erik Thor's web page saying I was INTJ. But I now think that I am an INTP actually (it's quite annoying with this back and forth-going -but I guess that could be ascribed to the Ti of INTP) - or a mix of the 2. I can very much relate to Ni (I think at least) and as far as I know from Erik Thor, if you are a superintuitive/has a high level of intelligence (maybe the latter is just my interpretation) then you can have multiple functions you can relate to, for instance Ni, Ti, Te, Ne - something like that. I am also reeeally awkward socially - at least on the inside. I cringe on a daily basis over myself . ..
Hmm, well based on your response I think you can safely assume you’re some sort of INXX type. I’d suggest you look over several descriptions of the infp, infj, intp and intj (from different sources), and try to see what matches your own experience of yourself the most. Doing this, it’s really important not to imagine your ideal self (who you would like to be), but how you actually are, and how you behave in a more objective sense. I think this way, you’ll be able to determine if you’re more of the feeling/thinking type and whether you’re fundamentally perceiving/judging. For distinguishing between T and F, I’d suggest you answer the question for yourself what matters most in life: love (Feeling), or truth (Thinking). I like to distinguish between 4 basic MBTI types by their life motto: SP types: life is a party! SJ types: life is a struggle, life is competition, life is a battlefield NF types: life is a quest for love and connection NT types: life is a search for truth
@@kristofpeleman978 Thank you for your elaborate answer. I don't really look for advice, just to share experinces with other similar people on youtube. I *have* looked into serveral sources for mbti for serveral years now without being sure. The more I dive into the paradigme, the more I doubt it - the types descriptions are very similar, the identification with types very flickering, since the test results depend on mood, what you happen to recall that day, if you have certain personality issues or diagnoses as well. So complicated. Furthermore, when I see some of the very elaborate videos or discussions on how different personality types use their functions in specific situations, it just becomes too much like horoscopes; people read into it what they want/what fit into their belief system. I am on the path of finding myself these years. Intp just resonates with me atm and I find consolation in that.
Kristof Peleman very insightful👍 huge difference b/w N types and S types completely separate their world in language and perception in everything. S types have very narrow minded and want to get immediate reality not going into deeper or understanding but everything is calculated limited the human brain for anything related to the reality through knowledge not intelligence! They never think of the consequence but immediate reality.
Yes squared. Particularly the idea of Ne and Ni coexisting within a type. I think perhaps I lead with Ne when I'm awake, but my most satisfying and mysterious (creative) stuff is presented to me fully drawn (with all the colors filled in) after I wake up. Apparently, some unconscious process is working when I'm asleep. Predominantly Ni working? The mornings when this happens are the epitome of experiencing the flow state?
@@ErikThor Cool I had the impression that you where suggesting that being super intuitive isn't worth it because it can lead to depression or crime. Come to think of it I think I need to watch it again. Its just that you kinda swayed me to aspire to it rather than dissuade me. Thanks
Always wondered if im INTP or INFP.Everything you said literally explained me but i still doubt my intelligence saying that what if everyone thinks the same way as i do ?
Are you a superintuitive, Erik? I’m wondering because people online often debate whether you’re an Ni-dom or an Ne-dom, so maybe the answer is both. Also, are there superfeelers (relate to all Feeling traits, both Fe and Fi), superthinkers (same with Te and Ti) and/or supersensors (same with Se and Si)?
So perhaps your type should be: iNNNNNfj 😀 It makes sense! It's was beautiful to hear about Wisdom, Insight, and Understanding 💜 perhaps those words are a beacon for Super Ns!
Request: Hi Erik Thor. Thank you for all your videos. I have tested out as an INTJ. I am in the process of testing whether or not I fall on the autism spectrum. Have you heard of any correlation between intj and autism? Or just autism and some mb-types in general?
Hey Ani, it is more common for autistic people to be highly or extremely introverted. But beyond that, many types can fall on the autistic scale, and autism is an umbrella term, not just one personality type or trait :)
@@ErikThor Hej Erik. Tak for dit svar (dane here). Thank you for your answer. It is indeed complex. I don't know whether I should ascribe my sensory issues, social cluelessness/awkwardness etc. to a personality type or a "diagnosis". I guess the answer would be to see someone with experience with autism :-)
I would be soooo curious to have your type in OPS term ^^. Have you been type by them ? And i'm not meaning that they know better than you what type you are. I'm just curious about different opinion that all ;) Anyway thx for the video. A great one as always
You are correct friend Super intuitive does exist And it is not about “superior” just as it’s not hard to see Some are much more intelligent in ways than others daily It’s a set of people that exist And knowing what and who you are Is healthy by default Science (psych, stats… ect) Agree 😊
What a load of crap. Anyone who has to proclaim their intelligence is exceptional, has an extremely low self-esteem. You cannot change your personality type by will. Your life experiences and your reactions create it.
Greg Penik MBTI is not be all end all. I find myself prioritizing extroverted intuition when I’m hanging out with friends, but using introverted intuition when I’m alone, I use both extroverted and introverted feeling, same with thinking, I ignore sensing the most, but even there it’s both. When you say your life experiences and your reactions to that experiences determine your MBTI type where do you put a person like me? I find MBTI has become somewhat of a religion - oh you can’t be everything, you’re not special, it’s one or the other, there’s no exceptions. I see that as very dangerous. The World is not black or white, Jung just presented his theories, MB then created a test to determine a personality, and social media users are now using it for pitting people against each other - this is the smartest personality, this is the rarest one... I do agree that people who have the need to share how inteligent they are, especially when they write down their IQ score, have low self esteem to some extent, but I also think that people who don’t undestand and react poorly have low self esteem and write down their IQ score withought even meaning to.
@@nevemurska Honestly, the divine gift of being human is having the ability to create. Free will allows one to create happiness or pain. Your state of being really comes down to expectations. If your expectations materialize into reality, the self-esteem is happy. If not a low self-esteem takes over. Our purpose is to find peace within.
@@L3onOfKings Absolutely. The man lacked humility. He was a great athlete and I won't discredit that. But there is always going to be someone stronger, more intelligent or more agile than you or me, or anyone for that matter.
Greg Penik he may have outwardly verbally claimed to be the greatest to boost his confidence and create that media image. Ali actually said that sugar ray robinson was the greatest pound for pound. I do think saying your exceptionally intelligent is a bit iffy, however he may have a case relative to the average person. Hard to prove, but who cares
I'm speachless. Thank you. It's mindblowing to listen to you. I cannot say anything, but thank you.
Well said. I exist to feed my intuitive monster. Skills and knowledge are what it eats.

Are you a superintuitive, Erik? I’m wondering because people online often debate whether you’re an Ni-dom or an Ne-dom, so maybe the answer is both. Also, are there superfeelers (relate to all Feeling traits, both Fe and Fi), superthinkers (same with Te and Ti) and/or supersensors (same with Se and Si)?
so superintuition is a subtype of a Meyers briggs Type?
You have described me,.......
So perhaps your type should be:
iNNNNNfj 😀
It makes sense!
It's was beautiful to hear about Wisdom, Insight, and Understanding 💜 perhaps those words are a beacon for Super Ns!
Request: Hi Erik Thor.
Thank you for all your videos.
I have tested out as an INTJ.
I am in the process of testing whether or not I fall on the autism spectrum.
Have you heard of any correlation between intj and autism? Or just autism and some mb-types in general?
Hey Ani, it is more common for autistic people to be highly or extremely introverted. But beyond that, many types can fall on the autistic scale, and autism is an umbrella term, not just one personality type or trait :)
Hope you find the answers you are looking for!
Yes
@@ErikThor Hej Erik. Tak for dit svar (dane here). Thank you for your answer.
It is indeed complex. I don't know whether I should ascribe my sensory issues, social cluelessness/awkwardness etc. to a personality type or a "diagnosis". I guess the answer would be to see someone with experience with autism :-)
I would be soooo curious to have your type in OPS term ^^. Have you been type by them ? And i'm not meaning that they know better than you what type you are. I'm just curious about different opinion that all ;)
Anyway thx for the video. A great one as always
I have th ed ABILITY to do everything, but not everything will be good. And I hate cooking.
Coool
I made a video about super intuition vs high iq, if you were interested 🙂
Ayeee
You are correct friend
Super intuitive does exist
And it is not about “superior” just as it’s not hard to see
Some are much more intelligent in ways than others daily
It’s a set of people that exist
And knowing what and who you are
Is healthy by default
Science (psych, stats… ect)
Agree 😊
Agreement as it’s true
To disagree with what is true
Is delusion
Provided
You are intelligent enough to discern such things
Ignorance is not delusion
I don’t know shit in comparison to what is
And that’s awesome
More to discover more to learn
Experience
Life 😃👻
Eyy wolf
What a load of crap. Anyone who has to proclaim their intelligence is exceptional, has an extremely low self-esteem. You cannot change your personality type by will. Your life experiences and your reactions create it.
Greg Penik MBTI is not be all end all. I find myself prioritizing extroverted intuition when I’m hanging out with friends, but using introverted intuition when I’m alone, I use both extroverted and introverted feeling, same with thinking, I ignore sensing the most, but even there it’s both. When you say your life experiences and your reactions to that experiences determine your MBTI type where do you put a person like me? I find MBTI has become somewhat of a religion - oh you can’t be everything, you’re not special, it’s one or the other, there’s no exceptions. I see that as very dangerous. The World is not black or white, Jung just presented his theories, MB then created a test to determine a personality, and social media users are now using it for pitting people against each other - this is the smartest personality, this is the rarest one... I do agree that people who have the need to share how inteligent they are, especially when they write down their IQ score, have low self esteem to some extent, but I also think that people who don’t undestand and react poorly have low self esteem and write down their IQ score withought even meaning to.
@@nevemurska Honestly, the divine gift of being human is having the ability to create. Free will allows one to create happiness or pain. Your state of being really comes down to expectations. If your expectations materialize into reality, the self-esteem is happy. If not a low self-esteem takes over. Our purpose is to find peace within.
Mohammed Ali self proclaimed that he was the greatest. Was he suffering from low self esteem?
@@L3onOfKings Absolutely. The man lacked humility. He was a great athlete and I won't discredit that. But there is always going to be someone stronger, more intelligent or more agile than you or me, or anyone for that matter.
Greg Penik he may have outwardly verbally claimed to be the greatest to boost his confidence and create that media image. Ali actually said that sugar ray robinson was the greatest pound for pound. I do think saying your exceptionally intelligent is a bit iffy, however he may have a case relative to the average person. Hard to prove, but who cares
