- Set goals for 2024 in our monthly workshop & get a handwritten quests card: patreon.com/erikthor I spent two months investigating whether I was an ENTP, like some systems would claim or INFJ, which has been my hypothesis. I learnt some really fascinating things about the two types and just how different they are... Now, which type do you relate to the most?
Check out my work at / erikthor to learn more about how to type yourself.
Are you an ENTP or INFJ? This video explains Extroversion vs Introversion, Thinking vs Feeling, Judging vs Perceiving. It also explains Extroverted iNtuition vs Introverted iNtuition.

5:48 So far the video has been quite accurate, form this ENTPs perspective, but I have to push back a little here. While true, that the ENTP focus will be directed more outwardly than that of the INFJ, it is a more focused extroversion than the one you present. Extroversion will be focused on the abstract, not the real world or people. Therefore, the focus won't be much on travel and or people. What makes ENTPs focus on people is Fe not Ne. Ne will make us focus on people in terms of idea development. But we do not even need people to generate ideas. So we won't focus on evryone, but rather those people that can give us interesting ideas.
Also I extremely disagree with having a full schedule. Having a full schedule usually means no time to learn and explore new ideas and concepts. It often means, no time to think things through. I often have to alienate myself from everyone, when i have important decissions to make, to fully think. I also have moments I dissappear entirely, just because I get so excited about a new idea or concept, and I even spend till 4 am deep diving researching everything and then doing nothing but think. Then after being away for some time, I will go out extremely excited and talk with everyone about the new thing I learnt, lmao.
There is nothing that excites me more, than learning new things, it doesn't matter the topic I just want new ideas like a junkie. And if I spend a whole day without learning something, it is a wasted day for me. If I spend a whole day out with people, and we spent all day epxloring the real world and or all discussions were superficial, it is a wasted day for me. In fact, if such things are prolongued I even start feeling depressed. I really really reallly need new ideas, like I do get depressed if I do not get them. That is why i actually hate traveling, it often means going to see things in the real world, and little to no new things to learn in the abstract. If I go, is because of the people i go with, not the place. I also love learnign about new cultures and perspectives, so if I go soewhere, I might be more excited about meeting people from there, than actually going there.
There is also no need for having the last word, I often do not give the last word. Because Ti is introverted, and after a discussion I might go back to thinking and introspecting to see if everything said makes sense to me. If I have not think things through, I mgiht not even say anything at all. I will just ask questions and listen, just consuming and learning liek the idea junkie I am. Also Ne, doesn't have a need to ahve a takeaway in most conversations, there is no need for a conclussion or a purpose to the discussion other than learnign. So there is no real need to have the last word. We might do it without noticing, but it would be because of Ne idea generation, but not because there is a need to have the last word. I would argue the opposite actually. So it could be true, but it would be because of Ne shenanigans, rather than a concious thing.
I had the same objections and therefore concluded hmmh can't be an entp than. But thanks for your comment!
Your description means a lot for both ENTP and INFJ. Especially, if both are in engage with some kind of emotional dealings.
I feel very empathetic when I see such an awesome personality of INFJ get trapped with oneself rigid types of traits. One of the major problem, they're prompt judgemental always shrink the topic to come on conclusion. I guess, they never learned such praise that, "No pain no gain" or "No risk no gain". It seems, they believe in one fix moto, " Harmony may interrupt if any change occurs." Change is a natural demand and change for the best, which INFJ merely understand.
Thanks and appreciated you for this magnificent tutorial.
Would you like me to tell you where this Light is, my friend? :)
@@JonasAnandaKristiansson It is too hard to weak someone who pretends
to be sleeping. Your ominous intuition, can not find the light because you already adopted a judgement on my comment. Light couldn't get it's name unless the presence of darkness. Now you understand, where is the light. Thanks.
@@seekeroflight3765 YOU are the light of awareness itself. Life, Being, Existence isn't a complex mental construct. Be.
Om Shanti
@@JonasAnandaKristiansson Yes, it is. Life, being existence a complex mental construct. The thing is this complexity is there in every life, it has nothing to do with you as a being because you are a creature, it is the matter of who has created you. You can't go back past and neither you may be able to jump over the present to reach future. You may live thousands of times in a moment, or you may not feel lively for the whole of your lifetime. Both depend on you. Live at present that's why it calls "present". Be easy, think easy, live easy because simple and simplicity is a natural event. Positivity is such, that always shows you the path to be forward even in the darkest night of your life. Be happy.... Thanks
@@seekeroflight3765 Fun stuff! Love, Jonas

Everybody’s Favorite Is The ENTP Otherwise There Wouldn’t Be 1,200 Characters In Modern Entertainment Between Dead Pool To Tony Stark’s Iron Man And The Anti-Hero ENTPs Such As Negan From The Walking Dead And The Joker. People Secretly Wish To Be As Free As An ENTP Without All That Pesky Common Sense To Stop Their Diabolical Plans. I’ll Be Addressing This Issue On My Next Episode #9 “Why Everybody Secretly Wishes To Be An ENTP” I Know, It’s A Provocative Title , But I Wouldn’t Be A True ENTP If I Didn’t Know How To Provoke Poeple. Stay Tuned ---> #ClubENTP Chaos Forever ;)
Per personal bias and experience infj is my favorite of the two but there are some awesome entps out there as well

"What is your favourite type, ENTP or INFJ?" - laugh react!!!
Thought experiments are a source of joy for the scientifically minded. Sometimes obsessing with something you are curious about and delaying in obtaining a satisfactory answer can be stressful, but overall it is very pleasurable. Also, as a lover of God I acknowledge that he existed first and hence he is all that is. Duality and a sense of separation from the original oneness is the root of all suffering. I do strive for the perfection I believe we were created to be. Eternal beings of light, given power by God to constantly create and learn. Our ambition should know no limits.
Erik, thank you so much for this grate video, i suppose that i'm an infj and i shocked by how you formulate and working through all these accurate facts of different types! :•)
Thanks Julia! :)
I m such a fan of u ERIC 💙
As an ENTP with an INFJ mom, and an INFJ mil, and INFJ friends.....it's actually beyond wild how different and similar at the same time we are.
I actually cringe and recoil with HOW they get to an idea or thought, but reaching the same goals and conclusions. Hell, I only found out I'm ENTP because a good INFJ friend absolutely KNEW I was the same type as them...and made me take the test. Needless to say, they were disappointed. Sometimes I get too into my own head, ignore people, and just come off as an INFJ. While all the INFJs I know may never voice the same crass jokes, or lob the same criticisms...they are thinking them. It's like we just occupy the same wavelength at times. Not always, but often enough to be spooky.
You've just unlocked one highschool memory for me xD My philosophy teacher talked about Plato's theory of ideal and then asked the class what do we think about it. I answered immediately that it seems legit and my teacher looked at me and said that I do not have to agree, it's a theory, but I said I do agree truly. Which is so funny because I don't believe in that now, I don't believe things are supposed to be some way or another universally, because every person will have their own vision of what is ideal or perfect, so there'd be as many ideals as people. And if we do change our view, our ideals change as well. I used to be so fixated on my box of ideals, but I was always trying to look above it and through it and eventually I managed to break free from that cage. It slowed me down so much
Interesting. Personally I still believe most things should be a certain way universally when they matter, but I've become more flexible and vague about how this way is. The thing I'm convinced of is that things should be in a way which will permit to meet and respect everyone's own vision of what is ideal or perfect. Because people's own ideals are more similar than it seems at first glance. You don't have to change your view if you can adapt it. I know look at my box of ideals in regard of others. I don't see it as a cage but rather as a powerful driving force in life to get closer to perfection.
Thank You For Doing A Video About My ENTP Type With The INFJ Like My Amazing Girlfriend. #ClubENTP ;)
So true and enlightning, thank you
Thanks Erik, great video. Still not sure if i'm INFJ or ENTP. Can you help? I wanted to become succesful so i started personal development, read 200+ books. But the more i read the more the books became spiritual. So it started with Business, than self help and than spiritual. Now, years later, I'm spiritually enlightened but also believed a while back that i was ENTJ. I think i wanted to become enlightened not for its own sake, but to become better for future success and happiness. After enlightenment the definitions of success and happiness changed completely. But still is this more entp or infj like?
Im gonna have to stop you right there.. it doesnt matter which one is more disagreeable and which one is more of a doormat. The main difference is which one is more scatterbrained and which one is more linear. Thats about it. There does exist ENTPs that take responsibility for the social and harmonic atmosphere, for equality, than other INFJs. and there does exist INFJs that take more responsibility for logic and fairness than the other ENTPs. INFJs can be logical hardasses and ENTPs can be counsellors, i know hard to believe. 2nd and 3rd function doesnt necessarily have to be in order. For INFJs and ENTPs, they just jump constantly back and forth between Ti and Fe.
Ive heard people argue this, and while I agree on a peactical level, I disagree on a preferential level. An ENTP will ALWAYS find social harmony a tedious, draining chore, while the infj will see it as a beautiful privilege. Their intrinsic values on the matter are widely different, even if the entp, especially female entp, may feel a pressure to act more socially harmonious, and the infj male may feel a pressure to appear logical and competent.
Absolutely!! I cannot comprehend why it seems like an impossible feat for people in typology to look beyond stereotypes. Is their knowledge really that shallow, or is it intellectual laziness?
@@ErikThor Erik you have not gained any wisdom during these past months, have you... Operating on binary presuppositions, stereotypes and incomplete or twisted understanding of those two types... I thought you were a ray of hope in typologyland for realizing and admitting your mistype, when most will probably never have the courage to do the same. But I see you haven't learned anything at all, well, I shouldn't have had any expectations should I.
@@timefortee oof. Tough room. But yes. Even as an ExTP type myself, as a logical hardass i do not really find social harmony as a 'tedious, draining chore'. As a guy who went through countless stressful dilemmas in my life. Ive always found ways to try to get groups back together one way or another, in my discord server, in my college classroom, etc. Hell some of the councellors i met are by for sure ExTP personality types and some of the best ones i know. ExTP types are for sure some of the most misunderstood ones. My Dad is without a doubt an ESTP, i couldnt ask for a better dad.
@@timefortee Your comments sound judgmental. (you haven't gained any wisdom during these months, have you..) How did you get wisdom to know he hasn't gained any wisdom. You offer no specifics, and therefore the wisdom thing is to discount what you wrote.
whenever entp´s post on a certain infj forum i never know what the bloody hell they are on about
Great vid
I test INFJ/ENFJ but behave more ENTP. Enneagram 8 supports this split, along with having a debater/loud mouth mode when around mean or aggressive or arrogant types.
1st comment
Brilliant! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🖖🏻👽😎🤙🏻🤪🤘🏻🏄🤷🏼♂️🏄
I am a both lol maybe my ADHD makes me feel more entp. I am really both at different times
So if I gather correctcorrectly
Infj wants to become Merlin
And entp wants to create make the world into a punk genre
Lol
monkey king vs buddha monkey king should win.
IMO the INFJ is the quiet-ish but attentive observer type, and ENTP is the immediate action, more experimental type of a person
