Its such a great personality type to be but also like a curse in this rigid mechanical system we live in. I can flourish at anything except keeping a routine oriented job...that I struggle with.....I have to feel free and flexible....its a must....I cant stand being told what to do, and being micromanaged. Sometimes I feel like i have to be self employed or it has to be something that is fun and exciting but has a limit to it. Like a seasonal thing, then moving on.....I just love change....My biggest fear is feeling stuck/trapped. I love photography, travel, humor, deep conversation, acting, and making/creating ideas and things. My worst enemy is being bored or feeling isolated from the world....or if I feel like I dont fit in....which is often...lol. We are very random people, we dont like strict routines....
Wow thanks for this video, I'm in a rut as well currently & I really don't want to start applying for jobs, because I prefer being an entrepreneur/my own boss & I've just been wondering what to do..so thank you so much. I'll think about how I can harness my skills toward my business in a different way
@@fuckeries I literally did the same thing & now I'm trying to get my business going. I just got to a point I realized being employed just wasn't working for me. I'm sure we'll figure this out..I'm slowly even if I'm still..well trying to figure things out. Kinda becoming optimistic at the prospect of what I want my business to be
@@kennethgithinji5631 this country especially. I quit a career my family & society prefer to just pursue what I feel works for me. Starting my own thing, but maan it's been a serious pain in the ass & there's so much pressure, so I happen to have these moments of feeling like maybe I should just go back & start applying for jobs in my field(I pursued law) but just that whole application process just drains me, cz well it's a whole life & world that ik doesn't work for me. I've always been the 'weird' one ever since I can remember..like the stuff I'm into, the free spiritedness, the way I dress etc..well you know how that goes in 🇰🇪🇰🇪
I understand never wanting to go back to working for a company, even if you’re not doing well financially. As soon as I get hired, I feel trapped. The jobs I enjoyed the most, gave me flexibility and freedom. I don’t think it matters as much what an ENFP does as it does how they do it. Fi Te means we need to entertain or Edutain 😂 in some way. We will not be happy sitting by ourselves for long. It is hard to find the right mix of autonomy and not too much boring clerical stuff. I once had a job at a Music Store that I loved. When people called for someone at the store, I would announce it over the loud speaker in a radio show voice. They told me I sounded great. I would stand there at the store and see everyone coming in and out and even some famous people. It was cool to have stories to tell. But, having to check serial numbers on music equipment and make sure no one walked out with anything was not ideal for my strengths. I was known for daydreaming or getting distracted by conversing with people up front. If only I could have just done that and the phone. There were times when they would put me in the back to answer the phone and I felt like I couldn’t make it through the day.
Another option is to do some free work for charity groups and organisations. Know they'd appreciate it and who better to market your marketing skills . Hell out a little tag somewhere in it all (free marketing provided by ....) Most people involved with many of the groups have amazing networking skills and groups .. plus majority of charity finding goes to advertising so ones that grow or survive will mst likely hire someone thay know later on
Hi! Thanks for your videos ! Could you do another video along the lines of perfectionism? I struggle so much with comparison and I think the "feeling" part of me gets in the way of being a realist sometimes. Im talking about in relationships.. I get jealous. And also the anxious thoughts ! I need to learn how to bring things back to reality instead of getting stuck in the imagination of my mind - and what is not necessarily facts. Thanks :)
I just came across your comment & I've never seen a name from my country before are you Kenyan?🇰🇪🇰🇪 It's exciting to see another Kenyan ENFP..how old are you, if you don't mind me asking?
@@kennethgithinji5631 lols the fact that you picked that up..yeah..your def an enfp Yes lols I was fishing to try see if you were a mature ENFP, however I thought about it & realised well..that's quite discriminatory, cz I mean age doesn't really mean much depending on the influences & circumstances around you..although I feel Enfps tend to mature or sharpen the focus on their intuition early. Before I go into a rant. Thanks for responding. I was just excited by the fact that there's another Enfp from my country on Dan's content..cz it's pretty good. Otherwise I live my days out on reddit. Yes I'm currently in Kenya. What about you?

Amazing angle man. Couldn’t have come at a better time. Ps I’ve emailed you about private coaching I’d like to have with you.
This is great advice, thanks for sharing, Dan!! 😄 Resume writing and the job app process is sooo draining. My friend even helped me write mine!
I LOVE this suggestion Dan! Thank you so much for the creativity!

I feel the same way. I quit my job to do a course and change careers but applying for jobs has been hard. I've been stuck for a month.

It's been eating me through time... Its just that the ENFP doesn't fit in this "Regular world"

I just took a test and learned I’m an ENFP.
I did this advice when I was looking for a job :)
Wow, Dan. This is an energizing, thought-provoking video.
Great advice! Sometimes it's so hard to come out of the rut and what you've shared is really helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
This video is awesome!! Thanks Dan 🙂
Thanks Dan the Man 👍
