Low maintenance. ISTPs have long been one my favorite types with which to work (if I must work with anyone at all). They get the job done, and as long as you treat them with even a modicum of honesty and respect, they'll do the same in return... and there's no one better from which to learn hands-on skills than an ISTP. They're happy to teach just as long as you're willing to accept their instruction as they see fit to bestow it. They're deeper than they let on, but they don't wallow in abstract matters. Buying 'em a cold beer every now and then goes a LONG way to winning them over. Treat 'em right and they'll give back far more than they ask in return. -- INTP
We ISTP's don't like working with others either as I would say, others are worse at everything while this is probably not true for everything, it is for most.
You have the right of it. Sometimes I think of our low fe like a filtration system, purifying the atmosphere of shitty people lol. I will notice someone who is genuine and respectful of my time though, and repay that 10 fold. I doubt many know how much we do actually want to help, but the way we package it probably has the reverse effect unfortunately.
I can't help but feel that ISTPs are one of the most well-rounded types function-wise. They seem like quite the swiss-army knife and I admire them greatly for that! Not to mention, they can be the source for quite the valuable insights in some of the most random moments... Quite the interesting people, best wishes to them all :)
I have two friends: ENFP and ENTP. Both are endless sources of bullshit ideas and irrationality. Funniest people to be around, hard not to punch, though. And my INTJ partner is a much needed strategist with a vision. I'm glad I'm unintentionally doing everything right
I know what you mean when you say this. Half the people who are enfp drive me crazy. I think when you find a mature enfp/entp tho it's a different story. Still, if they don't make sense to you you maybe that is proving his second point.
no. 5 (2:30) so thats why i want to be a consultant/advisor, i have most of the qualities of the leader except leading itself, having someone above me who have a vision, and me assisting them, while still being in a high position, sounds like a dream. or i am just.. not istp
Almost every sensor, with the exception of ISFP ig? To good part of the internet, sensors are usually seen as normies and short-sighted individuals, while intuitive types are seen as those abstract, deep and incomprehensible beings that are usually misunderstood by society because of their out-of-the-box thinking, which ngl, it's true to some extent. But nowadays that's just the misinformed part of the community which is usually composed by people with shallow understanding of the theory itself.
This is shocking for me to read as an infj. I have two istp friends ( male ) and I mean this in the most respectful way, they are the most boring ppl I've met. Also personally I feel very different from an istp, it's hard to even get them to elaborate or say anything at all. I only know 2 ISTP's so I cannot judge all of them. But its interesting how extremely lazy and passive both of my friends are in a way that I rarely see in other's
@@aviation1337 well they have all the same cognitive functions, just in a different order. So I wouldn’t say the initial behavioral traits are common, but the way they think doesn’t seem far off
“ISTPs are active introverts,” I very much like this description. 😊 I currently might not have an ENTP close by but the TeNe version of an ESTJ and she covers my blind spots extremely well indeed.
Very nice, istp here and by trial and error over the course of my life, I've adopted and implemented all these tips and found them to be incredibly useful in getting me to a flow and content state of life (: For tip #5, nowadays I don't join anyones vision cause I'm off doing my own thing somewhere unbothered. However, I can reflect on past experiences where I have done this, and its been those experiences with others where I've had the most joy and sense of purpose in life, because I was contributing to something other than myself while simultaneously contributing in a way that's unique to my own. It's nice to be able to see these tips written out and explained in detail haha, it's like a confirmation to let me know these habits I do are actually necessary. Thanks for the vid :-)
I've never wanted to lead, though I apparently have the competency. In the roles I've done over the years, seniority try to push me in that direction, nothing could appeal to me less. I much prefer to help from the sidelines, that way I can observe and narrow in on a path that I think will work well, without the pressure of responsibility. I've been thinking lately I need to utilise my Se more, it's been suffering somewhat. Ti-Ni looping is a bitch.
@@BABVSOULEATER2005 Failure happens, because the ENTP wouldn't be able to identify why an ISTP does something, for example an ISTP might say '' I got to x level in WoW yesterday'' in a 1 on 1 conversation about spending too much time on WoW, then the ENTP would identify that as bragging, or claiming to be better than what their level is which is not at all the intent, it's more of an admission/shame thing where you admit things are bad, but you accept them too, and out of respect you say the truth which is expected to be done by others from the ISTP's POV too, but if that is misidentified, the ENTP starts actually bragging about something the ISTP loses all built up respect for them, and from that point on you can't get that respect back short term, most likely not even long term.
Here's why I got a lot out of rule 2. This was my late fathers personality. I'm an enfp/right on the line of entp. In many ways we were opposites but became each other's most important person. I always learned from my father but as an adult he also (somehow) began learning things from me. I was his closest confidant and I don't think he trusted anyone's opinion more in the end. He was his own thinker and force of nature but we offered things to each other not just as father and daughter but also as individuals. I was fortunate to be raised by an Aragorn. That character was so my dad! 😅
i only recently found out that i'm an ISTP after studying about the cognitive functions and taking tests other than the 16personalities test (which told me i'm an INFJ). so in light of this new discovery, i've been binge watching your videos for this past week 😅 and now you've come out with this. this is such a main character moment for me 😂
0:27 My god the way I gasped. I recently wrote a comment about how I can't really handle stereotypical entps, all I feel is the need to show the potential of my hands.
"find an ENTP and try not to punch them" oh im striving on this one, im married to an ENTP and one of my best friends is also an ENTP. I love them. I have to try very hard no to punch them tho. Thanks god my wife works 8 hs a day so i can have my alone time and my ENTP friend lives in another country so yeah
bro iirc you made a video once about why istp/entp clash, will you make one about why they get along? kinda feels unbalanced to leave it at that iykwim 😂
I love all the points, but not the 5. Thats so 👀 an ISTP without self purpose is just a shadow, and I’ve seen this so many times! I live it too, for much time, and I wasn’t living. All an ISTP need in life is a self goal and a self purpose, nothing else (besides a little Ne plasticity hahahah). I mean, I know a lot is needed in life, but we can manage all… IF we follow our own path. My thought at least
Please make a video on female ISTPS please, and give some examples of them if possible. If there’s only one example, then that’s fine too of course-thank you!
As an INFJ, i really have a soft spot for ISTPs, they feel very similar to us in some ways, but a great compliment to us in the ways we're opposites. I vibe with ESTPs a lot too, but I kind of admire them and they drive me up the fuckin wall at the same time haha. Being introverts, i think ISTPs are more compatable with INFJ in a relationship potentially, and ESTPs are healthy friends for an INFJ i think, in the ways we inspire eachother with our differences in a yin-yang kind of way - INFJs and ISTPs, from what i can see, share a very similar philosophy for life ultimately, both of us would like to be left alone to pursue our passion and purpose in life (whatever that is for you), with maybe a partner and one or two close friends. Difference is that INFJ cares much more about other people and pleasing others, though many of us wish we cared less and can take a page from ISTPs book on that front haha. ISTPs perhaps wished they had those deeper, meaningful soul-level connections with others, which an INFJ can provide and can see in them even if they try to hide it. Its a good dynamic to have one person who deals with the physical realm and the practical stuff (ISTP) and one who deals with the vision, planning and ideas (INFJ). The meaning and purpose of things matters a hell of a lot to INFJs too, and i think ISTPs value that philosophy too, even if thinking in that way is not necessarily how they automatically approach things. I think ISTPs really seem to grow and flourish with a purpose, but idk, share your thoughts. Im curious about an ISTPs perspective, particularly, do you enjoy pholisophical discussions at all, or that an INFJ can see beneath your masks and like you for your inner and outer self? My ESTP friend seems to both be a bit freaked out by, and super appreciative of me seeing beneath his mask and bullshit, and loving him anyway for it lol, i think it confuses him like hell 😂 he's a typical rough-looking exterior, covered in tatoos etc etc, but soft on the inside, though he rarely lets people see that side of him. I saw him that way the first moment i met him lol 😂😂 idk why we can, but thats the curse/blessing of the INFJs intuitive insight i guess 🙃 For the record, were not trying to read you, it's as automatic to us as noticing what colour your hair or eyes are, and we notice these things about literally everyone we meet. It's second nature to us. And is in equal measure frustrating as heck and good insight, i guess. 😅 Ramble over, i just like ISTPs and think they are a great blance for INFJs in the ways we're super different, and surprisingly quite similar. And visa-versa. Much love to all the ISTPs from an INFJ lol , we do understand you, if you dont mind us needing your help to remember and deal with practial physical-realm things, and trying to talk to you about how existentially cool it is that the sand on the beach we touch and often think nothing of is actually millions of years old rock crushed into tiny particals and was probably the same sand walked by dinosaurs, and how small and big that makes this planet and the concept of time feel, but how nice it is to feel the connection and meaning of the universe in something as small and every-day as a pile of sand.... While you're engeneering your earthquake proof sand castle and wondering what the hell we're talking about, and why we've said almost nothing the whole day until we philosophise about a grain of fucking sand out of nowhere lmfao 😂🙃🙃 We dont know either 🥲... this is why we cant remember to buy milk and eggs even though we ran out of them over two and a half weeks ago lmao someone please send help 😂😭😓😓
lol istps are like intj, if you had the chance to know them intimately you would see how they use intuition all the time, at the opposite intps are attached to a strong si that makes them great craftmen
@@marcof.740 It's true that I haven't known an ISTP intimately. I did have a crush on MacGyver once if that counts. I enjoy watching them in movies doing things that escape someone who can barely tie shoe laces.
I laughed so much with what you said! I have a intp friend and this is so true 😂 but i drive her nuts as well, I’m sure. She is just too much polite to tell me
Yeah, like the reply above, we usually overthink a lot, specially when we have free time to lose ourselves in our heads, but then our Se drags us back to earth.
If any ISTP is willing to go through these questions and answer them, I would be grateful. 1. Do you struggle with isolation? 2. Even when you realize what gets you out of your head, do you follow through with action immediately or does it take you a while to “warm up” to it? 3. Is it overwhelming to juggle both sensory and social element of the psyche? Or have you learned to do so with ease? If so, any tips on how you manage both aspects at the same time?
Many times I do feel like the lonesome fellow in a world not made for me. It’s quite a rut, but frankly it can be downright depressing, only getting worse the more you isolate yourself. And for question 2, I can’t speak for everyone, but it I personally hate to ask for tips to leave a rut, and usually turn online, or just figure it out myself. And for 3, yes. Sometimes I get so focused on not getting in trouble (sec cameras, people watching, recording with phones, etcetera) that I lose track of being social, or vice versa. Hopefully this is of use to you, I hope it helps. - An ISTP
1. No. 2. Absolutely depends, but I tend towards procrastination. 3. With age, I have become adept, although it is totally at the expense of the social. I just don't care about it, and I care about it less as time goes by. That's how I handle it at the same time. No struggle at all haha!
1: Not really, like if you were to lock us up in a cell we would struggle with that a lot but when it comes to being around others No we are good company to ourselves, and we enjoy a lot of activities we can do alone. 2: I tend to procrastinate very often if I lack knowledge about something, spending the time to learn all of it before I will start with pretty much anything. 3: No, it is not at all difficult we just don't have the same priorities as other people we don't really care what you think of us unless you are really close to us like a family member, or SO, for social situations it's not overwhelming, it is not difficult to juggle but it is tiring, especially when people talk about things that don't matter to us like the weather, we want deeper conversations about real things that is how you connect to us socially ask us difficult questions. then we will be much more interested and less tired of you talking. We can pretty much for the most part get through it but once we realize we aren't gaining anything from being in that social situation, or event anymore we just leave which is why we leave early very often, also it depends on what social situation it is, if it's like a party we just can't enjoy that so very likely we will just reject the invitation, or not show up or just for a little bit to say hi, then leave.
@@KEEP_it_REAL647 It does. Thank you. I do have more questions but I wouldn’t like to cross a line because some people prefer to keep some aspects to themselves. But I will just say that depression, anxiety and reaction based on fear is a shared aspect. In terms of tips and advice - yes, figuring things independently is what gets me in “trouble” in the first place. It supports the loop. Self-reliance can be actually problematic. Realizing how you are setting a trap for yourself can get you out of the trap (hopefully). I am still in the process of exploring this idea.
Sorry for the drastic change in topic, but there is a genocide going on and we need your help to save human lives. Palestine is going through a genocide in Gaza Strip at the hands of the Occupation, and they are blocking humanitarian aid from entering, causing mass starvation despite the hundreds of aid trucks waiting at the gate. Worse, the Occupation and West countries are now defunding UNRWA, a prominent aid organisation to Palestinians, over unproven accusations of dangerous individuals within the UNRWA. They are starving defenseless civilians, including thousands of children and babies that are still suckling. Please donate to Palestine. Please spread awareness of the genocide. Please save the children. Don't let them be killed in silence...
As an ENTP, i would find it really hard to work together with an ISTP, if he is only stealing my ideas. Fi is very low, and i need someone i can trust to share my ideas with. It isn’t going to be this one way thing where i make ideas and he takes the ideas. ENTP’s weakness is (intellectual) property. We know this Se weakness. We need to tread this very carefully. But i don’t believe in general ISTP is the way to go for us.
On the other hand, we have too many ideas. Actually too many. You can have the crumbs i will never work on myself, especially if they require high Se being active.
Depends on what you work on together but if you both have the same idea, or we ISTP agree with a good idea then what need is there to come up with something else if you already found the best solution to a problem. We tend to be much better with anything requiring tools, like putting things together like PC's or furniture or making something or sports we feel a need to understand something thoroughly. If there is a lack of explanation for something we come up with a theory independent of what already exists, but it will probably be an existing theory we just never heard of. I came up with just gambling twice as much every time you lose because it is very difficult to keep losing as long as you have the resources necessary to keep going until you win once, then you quit. Then I explained it to others, and someone told me later on that is already a gambling strategy with a specific name, even though it is my theory that I calculated, and thought through and came up with.
@anonymousejr I'm just an ISFP who subjectively finds entire ENTP sexier. I use understanding and application of abstracts as a guide for how bangable people are.

Low maintenance. ISTPs have long been one my favorite types with which to work (if I must work with anyone at all). They get the job done, and as long as you treat them with even a modicum of honesty and respect, they'll do the same in return... and there's no one better from which to learn hands-on skills than an ISTP. They're happy to teach just as long as you're willing to accept their instruction as they see fit to bestow it. They're deeper than they let on, but they don't wallow in abstract matters.

I laughed so much with what you said! I have a intp friend and this is so true 😂 but i drive her nuts as well, I’m sure. She is just too much polite to tell me
@@marcof.740 Istps are really not like Intjs at all. Fi makes all the difference.

Sometimes wonder if life would be easier being a type like this. I'm an overthinking infp
We overthink too (Ti first), it’s just that it’s pretty convenient/pleasurable to divert into Se when we recognize it.
Yeah, like the reply above, we usually overthink a lot, specially when we have free time to lose ourselves in our heads, but then our Se drags us back to earth.
Also do ISTJ
Nice one ! 👍🏻✌🏻🤙🏻
Please do ESFJ life hacks.
Are you an ESFJ or an INTP in dark mode?
Just find a INTJ and adopt, have as a best friend, date or marry him, your life will be easier 😂
Lucky me , my sister is entp
Who should istp date or marry?
I have a pet ENFP - will that do? :)
If dogs could speak, would that make our world better? I think it would
Any ENTP here?
If any ISTP is willing to go through these questions and answer them, I would be grateful. 1. Do you struggle with isolation? 2. Even when you realize what gets you out of your head, do you follow through with action immediately or does it take you a while to “warm up” to it? 3. Is it overwhelming to juggle both sensory and social element of the psyche? Or have you learned to do so with ease? If so, any tips on how you manage both aspects at the same time?
Many times I do feel like the lonesome fellow in a world not made for me. It’s quite a rut, but frankly it can be downright depressing, only getting worse the more you isolate yourself. And for question 2, I can’t speak for everyone, but it I personally hate to ask for tips to leave a rut, and usually turn online, or just figure it out myself. And for 3, yes. Sometimes I get so focused on not getting in trouble (sec cameras, people watching, recording with phones, etcetera) that I lose track of being social, or vice versa. Hopefully this is of use to you, I hope it helps.

1. No. 2. Absolutely depends, but I tend towards procrastination. 3. With age, I have become adept, although it is totally at the expense of the social. I just don't care about it, and I care about it less as time goes by. That's how I handle it at the same time. No struggle at all haha!
1: Not really, like if you were to lock us up in a cell we would struggle with that a lot but when it comes to being around others No we are good company to ourselves, and we enjoy a lot of activities we can do alone.
2: I tend to procrastinate very often if I lack knowledge about something, spending the time to learn all of it before I will start with pretty much anything.
3: No, it is not at all difficult we just don't have the same priorities as other people we don't really care what you think of us unless you are really close to us like a family member, or SO, for social situations it's not overwhelming, it is not difficult to juggle but it is tiring, especially when people talk about things that don't matter to us like the weather, we want deeper conversations about real things that is how you connect to us socially ask us difficult questions. then we will be much more interested and less tired of you talking.
We can pretty much for the most part get through it but once we realize we aren't gaining anything from being in that social situation, or event anymore we just leave which is why we leave early very often, also it depends on what social situation it is, if it's like a party we just can't enjoy that so very likely we will just reject the invitation, or not show up or just for a little bit to say hi, then leave.
@@KEEP_it_REAL647 It does. Thank you. I do have more questions but I wouldn’t like to cross a line because some people prefer to keep some aspects to themselves. But I will just say that depression, anxiety and reaction based on fear is a shared aspect. In terms of tips and advice - yes, figuring things independently is what gets me in “trouble” in the first place. It supports the loop. Self-reliance can be actually problematic. Realizing how you are setting a trap for yourself can get you out of the trap (hopefully). I am still in the process of exploring this idea.
@@chocolatefrenzieyaThank you for taking the time to answer these questions. 🙏🏻
Sorry for the drastic change in topic, but there is a genocide going on and we need your help to save human lives. Palestine is going through a genocide in Gaza Strip at the hands of the Occupation, and they are blocking humanitarian aid from entering, causing mass starvation despite the hundreds of aid trucks waiting at the gate. Worse, the Occupation and West countries are now defunding UNRWA, a prominent aid organisation to Palestinians, over unproven accusations of dangerous individuals within the UNRWA. They are starving defenseless civilians, including thousands of children and babies that are still suckling. Please donate to Palestine. Please spread awareness of the genocide. Please save the children. Don't let them be killed in silence...
As an ENTP, i would find it really hard to work together with an ISTP, if he is only stealing my ideas. Fi is very low, and i need someone i can trust to share my ideas with. It isn’t going to be this one way thing where i make ideas and he takes the ideas. ENTP’s weakness is (intellectual) property. We know this Se weakness. We need to tread this very carefully. But i don’t believe in general ISTP is the way to go for us.
On the other hand, we have too many ideas. Actually too many. You can have the crumbs i will never work on myself, especially if they require high Se being active.
Depends on what you work on together but if you both have the same idea, or we ISTP agree with a good idea then what need is there to come up with something else if you already found the best solution to a problem.
We tend to be much better with anything requiring tools, like putting things together like PC's or furniture or making something or sports we feel a need to understand something thoroughly.
If there is a lack of explanation for something we come up with a theory independent of what already exists, but it will probably be an existing theory we just never heard of.
I came up with just gambling twice as much every time you lose because it is very difficult to keep losing as long as you have the resources necessary to keep going until you win once, then you quit.
Then I explained it to others, and someone told me later on that is already a gambling strategy with a specific name, even though it is my theory that I calculated, and thought through and came up with.
Excuuuuse us, but as we are extremely fair minded, generally, we don't steal, we abet.
Ideas are a dime a dozen and only have meaning when realized.
ENTPs are sexier than ISTPs just by their pure essence of being.
Said the entp.
@anonymousejr I'm actually ISFP lol
@@Acceptablehandleaheada2.-_ would have been really funny if you were entp though.
Oh well, have a nice day.
@anonymousejr I'm just an ISFP who subjectively finds entire ENTP sexier.
I use understanding and application of abstracts as a guide for how bangable people are.
