These videos are so helpful. I'm writing a book at the moment, and an ESTJ is just so different from how I see the world, it's sometimes hard to get into their mindset. I've written my basic character, his wants and motivations etc and then typed him as a way for me to get in his head a bit better (answering the MBTI questions). This series really helps me fill in and flesh out, when it comes to communication and humour. So thank you so much for your insights.
I often find that my estj “no nonsense mentality” shows when I hear something that I think is dumb or illogical and I usually respond with sarcasm or criticism that my friends often find harsh. I often see their point afterwards but in the moment I just feel like I’m pointing some great absurdity that everyone else can see.
I'm so glad it's helpful and I will! The pandemic has me sewing masks 15-16 hours/day right now, but once that chaos is over I've got my ISTJ video halfway completed and waiting for me to get back to it.
Mainly watched this one because Simba was in the thumbnail, and though I hadn't consciously typed him before, I wouldn't have guessed ESTJ (but I can definitely see it now). Your breakdown of the lions never questioning the ineffectiveness of their monarchy system made me laugh a lot
Well, thank you so much! I am very glad you like it :D If you like the information, I get the vast majority of mine from C.S. Joseph's MBTI system (link in description). He's lecture-based while my videos are designed to be a bit more entertaining, but if the approach to the information interests you, I got mine from him, so go check him out :)
Thank you! I've added your vote to the list :) The pandemic has me sewing masks all the day long, but I am super eager to get back to this series just as soon as the super cooties stop being such a pain, lol!
Interesting. Do you think you were mistyped somewhere along the way or do you think the MBTI typing has an element of fluidity based on life stages and maturity?
@@cynthiapayne9906 I honestly think fluidity on life stages but with me I have always had that over bearing self confidence ever since I was in high school. And it paid of quite well I wasnt the smartest the coolest or the most popular. But I had enough confidence to stand up for myself without anyone else. And be friends with everyone just about
My mother is sometimes an ESTJ SOMETIMES AN ESFJ I am SERIOUS she changes unpredictably I cannot pin point her exact personality we're too different from each other, I'm an ENTJ btw.
Those two can seem very similar, particularly in their motivations. I'd suggest focusing on her speech patterns for a bit to see if that helps. ESTJs are very direct--they say what they mean and mean what they say and don't beat around the bush, while ESFJs very much beat around the bush and tend to circle around the topic. ESTJs also like to 'lead' the conversation and introduce new topics on their schedule, while ESFJs prefer to follow along with the given topic. You're an ENTJ, so it will be harder for you to figure it out because your brain is going to automatically edit and summarize what everyone says so YOU can "get to the point" in your head, and you naturally like to lead the conversation, so it may be helpful to sit back and listen, even record so you can study it later, to her talking to a third party. You can also try and figure out if the conversations between you and your mother are typically easy (not necessarily topic, but the natural flow and chemistry of the conversation) or if you are always trying to redirect each other in conversation which will result in a more stilted and less easy flow. I hope that helps, and good luck!
I am! Next is going to be ISTJ and the reason that is taking forever is because the pandemic has me sewing masks all the day long, but I do really want to get back to this series because I have so much fun with it :) I will add your ESTP vote to the tally. Thanks again! ;)
My best friend is an ESTJ. I've come to appreciate their no-nonsense demeanor. Out of curiosity, what do you think it is that makes it difficult for ya'll to get along?
I'm sure I've mistyped as I've gone along--I'm learning as I go :) But I'm curious why you think Hermione is an ISTJ? I honestly don't see anything introverted about her, so I'm curious. Thanks for watching!
@@cynthiapayne9906 Hermoine is a Si dom, she's calm and introverted and focuses on rules, the past, duty first and foremost and efficiency second. Dolores Umbridge is ESTJ, classic Te dom woman, efficiency is everything to her and order and logic. McGonnagall is ISTJ too. Harry is ISFP, Ron is ESFP and Hermoine is ISTJ. Dumbledore is INFJ and Snape is INTJ.
I'm learning as I go, so I know I'm going to mistype some characters along the way, but she seems pretty ESTJ-ish to me still. Can you explain why you think otherwise? I'm always curious to learn more :) Thanks for watching!
@@AyushKumar-uu2yd Where do you see her being introverted? I see her as always being willing to take the lead and go seek out others when she wants. I can't think of a single instance where she waited for someone to go to her or where she failed to take the initiative in something.
@@cynthiapayne9906 Hermione has a genuine desire to learn.Her favourite place is the library. If not for Ron and Harry she would never go out. She's a perfectionist. She loves to plan,organise, color code. She doesn't love fun or adventure for it's sake rather as a means to help her friends. She is not a leader. She is bossy yet not dominating. Her extroversion comes only in classroom or when something larger is at stake or someone's in danger. Her extroversion comes out of necessity rather of character. She likes being approached in a relationship rather being assertive and take the lead. Hermione isn't a friendly kind of person. She loves to correct people.she has a small social group. She doesn't like attention. She is a logician. She uses strong cold logic to solve all kinds of problems.
@@AyushKumar-uu2yd Thank you for explaining your thought process. I think I better understand where you are coming from and I think I can better explain my thought process in response: Hermione is an extrovert because her top (dom) function is an extroverted function, specifically Te. Te loves to organize, to color code, to make systems and plans in order to accomplish things. This is what Te doms are great at (ESTJs and ENTJs). Se doms are all about the parties and living large and having adventures and being super friendly, and they are the "stereotypical" extroverts, but Te doms want all the knowledge so they can understand all the systems and do all the things and solve all the problems. They then want others to explain why they think the way they do and are always trying to get more information and asking for clarification--often by correcting others when they think their thinking is flawed. They like books and they work very hard to get all the knowledge to do all the things. ENTJs and ESTJs can be mistyped as introverts because of this stereotype, because they are prone to spending lots of time alone so they can do all the things and that takes time and work, but their top function is extroverted, so they are extroverted. ESTJs especially, because they have Si and are affiliative, take formal education VERY seriously. She is absolutely a leader and both bossy and dominating. The very first time we see her, she is taking charge of finding Nevil's frog on the train. She defers to Harry only because she respects him, but when she doesn't respect authority figures (Professor Trelawney) her dominating comes out forcefully. She is rather forceful in presenting her ideas and takes charge at several times--think about how she took charge with SPEW and with the final confrontation with Umbridge. She is extremely take-charge and this is her extroversion in full swing: in doing all of the things. ESTJs do like being approached for relationships because their Sensing function is introverted (second function). Si likes to be approached by Se in romance, just like ISTPs (introverts) like to do the initiating in romance because their second function is Se, or extroverted. I hope that makes my thinking clearer. Thank you again and thank you for the opportunity! I do so love psychoanalyzing people who don't actually exist, lol!

That is so awesome and than you so much for taking the time to let me know :) It's cool to hear from other writers in the same place as I am

My best friend is an ESTJ and I've seen her struggling with this, too. Although I just find it hilarious when I see it happening in the moment. :D
My bf is ESTJ and I’m an ENTP. I love that we both work like that.
Please, continue this series! It's very helpful for people like me that write stories!
I'm so glad it's helpful and I will! The pandemic has me sewing masks 15-16 hours/day right now, but once that chaos is over I've got my ISTJ video halfway completed and waiting for me to get back to it.
WHO writes stories. It would also help to improve your understanding of the English language. No offense, just constructive criticism.
@@nickpastorino5370 I'm brazillian bro, I'm not a native english speaker
@@nickpastorino5370 I write stories in portuguese ._.
@@felpst4559 Well in that case your English is better than a lot of people in the US.
Mainly watched this one because Simba was in the thumbnail, and though I hadn't consciously typed him before, I wouldn't have guessed ESTJ (but I can definitely see it now). Your breakdown of the lions never questioning the ineffectiveness of their monarchy system made me laugh a lot
Made me yell at the damn screen as a 13-year-old, lol! :) Thanks for watching!
This is fantastic! Please consider doing ENFP next

I love ripping ESTJs infallible logic to shreds.
Please make one of these videos about INTJs. These are awesome!

Would like to see one on ENFP & INFP
I love your videos, they are clear, practical and very insightful, please do an ESTP one too, thank you!
This was well done. Can you do Entj?
Thank you
