Hello, INTJ lady here. What I discovered is that some kinds of meditation (which I do every day) involves observing yourself or 'watching yourself go by'. I think it comes much easier to an IXXJ or maybe it's Ni, not sure. I feel I can separate my mind's eye and my mind's chatterbox from the rest of my mind and objectively observe what it doing. Not the best description of the phenomena but best I can do right now. Another great video.
there is lacking the #ISFJ. But this video is amazing and the quote "they're what reality could be if they continue to follow what they are doing" summarizes the IxxJ way pretty well, I loved it.
Very good points. ITJs are the most stubborn of all 16 types. The one thing I know I could never try to take away from my dad is his faith. It’s the one thing that matters to him.
I fell in love with the "warrior in the garden" visualization of the archetype. I, INFJ, and my closest friend, INTJ, fit so well on this, strong willed, even stubborn sometimes. While at the same time being reserved and not enforcing things on people.
As an INFJ I can be very playful, more so than my ISTP husband. My energy is upbeat. My Ni became more dominant in midlife although looking back I can see where it's roots took hold at 3 yrs of age. My observations were primarily of my mother and I subconsciously set a goal of being and doing what I perceived she would connect to and value. This way of entering the world then became my primary ego pattern. I hid my negative emotions because they weren't received (and often made fun of) so I figured they had no value. I wanted to discover what would be valuable to her and to my family. ..and then friends, teachers. ..and eventually wider society. It became a subconscious quest. In recent years my inner work has allowed me to be very honest with myself and gradually let go of negative imprints from childhood. I became more assertive and was surprised how my assertiveness was received like 'water of a ducks back'. The world didn't fall apart. I was quote assertive as a child. My nickname was 'Bossy Boots'! But this lively confidence was dampened down by my family and so it became a split off part of me. For INFJs we need to hold space for ourselves and be a kind compassionate mirror to our hurt split off selves. That's what has helped me to gradually reclaim my true self.
@@rhambosia1 Happy to share :) I really feel from my own experience that the antidote for INFJS is to turn the spotlight of kindness we usually shine on others, inwards towards ourselves. For me this has been sitting quietly with negative feelings and then having an imaginary dialogue with a very benevolent person. I say how I'm feeling and what's bothering me, as if speaking with a counsellor and then when I'm deeply connected to this part of me, I fill my heart with compassion and 'bathe' my self in this energy. I have often found connecting to compassion easier if I sense myself as a child and give her the love (which is of course myself). I stay with it until I feel deeply content. The negative part's energy has disolved. That's the inner world practice. In the outer world I find being less of a people pleaser is more natural because all those aspects of me that want to please from my personality, dissolve and the deeper true heart slowly emerges.
Ok, so to summerize IsxJ Finds something or someone of value and fights to preserve a state of being. "It should BE this way, else it's wrong" It could be a relationship, a company, a reputation, a specific order of something InxJ Finds a better way to do something in order to minimize waste, or to do something the 'smartest' way to get the same reward for lesser effort. "Do it this way else it's a waste of time and energy/effort" It could be how to act in a relationship, a strategy in a workplace, the way to go all in or put ALL eggs in one basket on a project/game/work The temperament per default rather cool, is playful when dealing with perspectives and feelings of others, but becomes VERY pushy and non-playful if they find value that they "need" to (conserve) or (pursue). IxxJ's get mean/angry/anxious when forced to achieve results under pressure when lacking the time to know enough. Yes?
I happen to agree about the first and fourth functions showing more of a type’s temperament. I noticed this as well when I was “studying” (and pondering) the types and their functions heh. I thoroughly enjoyed this topic; it was articulated so well! Very cool, very rad.
This is so on point.... People often term IPs as observers but as u told IJs are the ones who are more withdrawn into their world... Thank u for the video!!
I am apparently an INFP, but these things you said actually ring very true for me. Like, literally word to word. I wonder if IPs can relate to these too
I’m an infp, and I like to imagine people as carbs, because we are made of carbon and hydrogen too. That is my romantic image, even though it makes absolutely no sense 🍴😍🍴 IJs are muffins: Self contained and solid, practical, subtly sweet and very cute 🤟🏾 IPs are noodles: wiggly, flexible, small and awkward, also very cute 🥰. EPS are cake: festive and larger-than-life, indulgent and colorful and cute 🥳 EJs are... i actually don’t know. Idk, I guess someone could finish it for me if they want.
Great video, definitely agree the IxxJ types are similar, as an INFJ myself I can strongly relate. Also quick question, the thumbnail for this video has an image of a girl looking over mountains and sky .. where can I find that image? I used to use it a background wallpaper years ago, but I can't find it anymore.
Great video, very explanatory and defined. As an INTJ, you're doing a really good job on camera / In photos in terms of not having the stone faced INTJ stare expression, I still haven't gotten that far. Are there any tips you can say about that to other INTJs?
ISFJ missed out on getting tagged. suckers! ...I mean..... Spot on about the internal perceptions being basically real to the IJ. What I perceive is often as real or more so to me than the world around me.
I think that there can be a sense of play for the INTJ, but there may also be a "serious" character to it, playing "to the hilt", so to speak, in "deadly earnest". For me this is strongly related to my Se function, which should be "inferior", but within the context of creative activity, art or music, for example, brings together the sensate and intuitive fuctions into counterpoint with each other, organizing a perceived thing according to a larger structure of ideas, and investigating the result. Every try may not be a "success", and it may take many ongoing rounds, but all kinds of things that I hadn't expected often come out in the process. Mies Van Der Rohe, the architect, once said that "Art is not a playground for children, young or old, but a battleground of ideas." I would be willing to bet that he was an INTJ.
I really honestly can't figure out what type I am. Nothing fits. Ever. Intj, for the most part fits, but I also strongly feel the values of an isfp. I'm definitely introverted no doubt. I'm an artist and musician, but the way I go about it and the reason I do it is almost stereotypically intj... I'm heavily driven towards the same thing I've been driven towards since I was 7. Music. Art. I see these things as mechanically beneficial to all of society. I have always seen major flaws in society and social norms and values. And this is what I think is most helpful. I hate school because it doesn't teach me anything I plan on using, and I'm not being arrogant, I just literally can't focus on it when I know it's pointless TO ME even if you think there is one outside of that. Everything I do and have ever done is for the sake of my one goal.
I am an INFJ and I love people. I was born living life backwards, so I learn as I go. I follow God and his instructions because I really care about others. People don't like hearing the truth because it disturbs their own idealism. I base everything on God's word. If you read the bible, you will see that God often relented. All God wants is for each individual to be themselves and not a copy of another. God is not about race, creed, traditions that everyone argues about. No one should judge another. No one knows what is in the next person's heart. All I care about now, is that people must get out of the USA which is Babylon. Two wrongs don't make a right. We shouldn't fuel fire with fire. Murmuring, doesn't help because then God not be able to open the windows of heaven nor can his angels fight for us. Why should I be hated when all I want is best for everyone. God has so much more to offer. No one can fix a broken system. Only God can. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Hence, no discrimination. God doesn't discriminate and why should we. If anyone discriminates then they are making themselves out to be God.. God can do anything if we just believe his truth. I am a natural born philanthropist. The highest position man could ever have. I am a mover and shaker. A trend setter. I am going somewhere slowly. I study life and how people behave, as well as circumstances. I am me and I can't change because of someone else's desire, just like I can't change someone else's desire. Only God can change hearts. I am willing to be hated and look like an idiot for God. God disciplines those he loves. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.1
Look up Walter Veith He is on point in teachings from Scripture that the Vatican is babylon and the pope is antichrist. It may be hard to hear but it's is the truth. USA, which is the beast from the soil/ground, is partially controlled by the Vatican, the beast of the sea, and when the trade system of the 666 kicks in, USA through the Jesuits will enforce the world to worship the first beast (pope = babylon) The EU agenda 2030 may be a triggering factor to this. Walter Veith, go watch, it will bless you. Peace
I've taken the test quite a few times in the past, and I've always gotten INTJ or ISFJ. But I feel like I'm actually INFJ. I feel like I'm not so serious and cold in as the INTJ, as I can be very social and fun. I also feel like I don't care about people as much as the ISFJ. In fact, I couldn't care less about anyone except my loved ones. And INFJ seems to be in the middle of those two, not too serious and cold as INTJ, and not as caring and selfless as ISFJ. I've tried to research the different types, but I'm still super confused. I can see myself being any of the personality types that are IxxJ. Summary: I'm confused.
I agree you need to study the cognitive functions any type can be “very social and fun” also INFJ is not the middle of ISFJ and INTJ all 3 types are unique entities. -Cold INTJ lul
I think that out of all the temperaments, IJs make the least movement. Whenever I see one of them stand up, it is a shock to me remembering that they have legs and aren’t just extensions of their chairs. Is this a thing or is it just me? Lol
It’s funny how wildly different all these UA-camr’s are on the MBTI types. I fit so well into some people’s assessment of INTJ (which is how the Myers-Briggs Institute tested me) and yet, I am so different from this guy’s assessment. This stuff is a lot more like astrology than I ever thought it would be.

I tagged ISFJs, idk why it isn't showing up though. Thanks for the feedback and for watcging!

Wow, that was eye-opening. Asura, you are a gift to the MBTI community. Keep up the good work!
Appreciate the support, truly, thanks!

Thanks for sharing. I am on this quest now as an infj to find my own voice and become more assertive and stop people pleasing.

would like to see the other 3 group
Ok, so to summerize
IsxJ
Finds something or someone of value and fights to preserve a state of being. "It should BE this way, else it's wrong"
It could be a relationship, a company, a reputation, a specific order of something
InxJ
Finds a better way to do something in order to minimize waste, or to do something the 'smartest' way to get the same reward for lesser effort. "Do it this way else it's a waste of time and energy/effort"
It could be how to act in a relationship, a strategy in a workplace, the way to go all in or put ALL eggs in one basket on a project/game/work
The temperament per default rather cool, is playful when dealing with perspectives and feelings of others, but becomes VERY pushy and non-playful if they find value that they "need" to (conserve) or (pursue).
IxxJ's get mean/angry/anxious when forced to achieve results under pressure when lacking the time to know enough.
Yes?
This is interesting. Would really like to see a video about the other temperaments, IxxP, ExxP, and TxxJ!
Yes please! I want to see videos on the other types. Thanks
I happen to agree about the first and fourth functions showing more of a type’s temperament. I noticed this as well when I was “studying” (and pondering) the types and their functions heh. I thoroughly enjoyed this topic; it was articulated so well! Very cool, very rad.
2:19 i’d love love love to see the other three
This is so on point....

IJs are muffins: Self contained and solid, practical, subtly sweet and very cute 🤟🏾
IPs are noodles: wiggly, flexible, small and awkward, also very cute 🥰.
EPS are cake: festive and larger-than-life, indulgent and colorful and cute 🥳
EJs are... i actually don’t know. Idk, I guess someone could finish it for me if they want.
EJ are the spices.
You drove it home with this one. Full disclosure - I am of the INTJ variety.
In Psychological types, Jung also summarized the introverted irrational functions and the other 3 temperaments as well.
Great video, looking forward to another favorite fictional MBTI characters or another temperaments :)
Great video, definitely agree the IxxJ types are similar, as an INFJ myself I can strongly relate. Also quick question, the thumbnail for this video has an image of a girl looking over mountains and sky .. where can I find that image? I used to use it a background wallpaper years ago, but I can't find it anymore.
Have you found the answer or want some help? I know how to get the thumbnail in larger format, often with a little lesser quality
Interesting point of view and great video. :)
Great video, very explanatory and defined.
As an INTJ, you're doing a really good job on camera / In photos in terms of not having the stone faced INTJ stare expression, I still haven't gotten that far. Are there any tips you can say about that to other INTJs?

Do you think temperaments have any effect on a person's GRIT?
I just wonder how psychiatrists cope with having to learn about the low, dark thoughts of humans
random but im curious.. whats ur type ??? (there are two ways u can take this question 😂)
he's an INTJ
@@Glurmp ohh cool!!! thank u

Jired from Dragon Ball Super is a great example of an ISTJ while Zamasu is a good example of an INTJ.
