I love this so much. I hate that people think INFP’s are never interested or can be good at physical activities. As I get older I care more about my physical health and being active in my daily life. I have fallen in love with dance specifically flow arts like hula hoop dancing and dancing with silk fans. Us infp’s need to get out of our heads and do things, because we are letting life pass us by if we stay stuck at home in our shells.
Wow. I’m exactly in the same boat. All my life I have played sports, namely Football (Soccer) from 2006 to 2011 and Basketball from 2011 to 2017, but I quit altogether in 2017 for reasons I kind of forgot. I actually do really love Basketball but was disappointed in our constant loss. I’m not a stickler for winning, but our team was honestly not very good. Anyways, since then I’d always tried to get into dancing but it’s been difficult to startup, as well as Gym and a few other hobbies. This, year 2022 is when I really did start to kick it off. I actually consistently started going gym, and finally committed to actually learning instruments I’ve been wanting to for years, as well as dancing. Slowly but surely. It’s just hard as INFPs to really start doing the things, namely hobbies we’re passionate about. I also really want to start playing Basketball again, although not necessarily competitively.
That’s because people don’t understand that Se polar means we’re bad at taking physical action on the metaphysical plane aka commitments..it has to do with follow through and execution.
This is something I discovered about myself and the misconceptions about INFPs. We are very logical. We are very orginised. We are very particular. Yes, we can be "lazy", or be dreamers and have sporadic thoughts. Both can be true at once. I've always liked Hermione's words in the first Harry Potter movie. Clearly she is meant to be a Ravenclaw because of her book-smarts, but it was her preference to friendship, loyalty and bravery that landed her in Gryffindor. INFPs are the same. We are can be both. We just have a preference to be more in touch with nature and the human experience, to question our reality and what it means to be "alive". To feel and place value on things rather than seeing things from a cold eye of logic. We understand nuances and that not everything can be "solved" through the lenses of a one-dimensional view point.
Really a gentleman. Wonderful that he chose acting, he is good at it. My husband and me and our daughter are all INFP. I suspect our son is too, but will wait till he's 16 to take the test.
Yes, I agree with your comments. I am an INFP and was qualified to administer the MBTI and the expanded version in Oxford by the organisation that held the franchise for the U.K. and Europe. One thing I would add - and this may be just a personal view - is that INFPs can spot if someone probably shares the same type as themselves. I’d never thought about Keanu Reeves in type terms before but I always suspected we shared many traits.
My colleague recently stated he thought that Keanu had absolutely no talent (ESTJ) and did not like him. Heartily disagree. Have always admired Keanu. Wanted to ask said colleague why he felt that way but said colleague, although quite a decent guy, is quite intimidating. Will ask him further once I gain the courage.
He is not a kid or child,his behaviour cause misunderstanding,he is a man,a mature man take responsibility on the crime they commit,but kid doesn't have to, this is tricky
I agree. It's important to note that even if you are a personality type, your environment will alter your personality. Keanu is not the only picture of INFPs
I enjoyed your breakdown, I think in a four function model it actually makes allot of sense to say INFP. That being said, once you understand how all 8 functions work together he actually is INFJ. I am working on a video to explain this, hopefully it will be out soon.
I don't see that at all. I have an INTP friend that I love and adore but not seeing cross optics between him being an INFP versus INTP. I am not convinced he is an INFP however.
He is not, many mbti gurus and experts typed him as INFP. He is very idealistic and has more Ne and Si compared to Se and Ni which ISFP has, just because he does physical activities doesn’t mean he is a sensor
Keanu is one person that I never really see a debate about his MBTI.

Absolutely agreed. I think this is where we can learn so much from sensors who live in the moment. So envy them for this.
Me too, I’m infp and I love dancing!
BS, ive never met a better soccer player than me (INFP)

The scattered comunication gets me. I'm like that too 😄

A family of infps, wow, that is awesome.

I am INFJ dating an INFP.. yes this is my man!❤
He is not a kid or child,his behaviour cause misunderstanding,he is a man,a mature man take responsibility on the crime they commit,but kid doesn't have to, this is tricky
No wonder i like him so much
He is a phenomenal person in my perception. Huge fan.

He is lovely (and handsome). I am INFP too.
It took me a longgg time to choose. But i think infp also
Hey! Are you all still producing content?
We are definitely not potatoes!
Some say he is INTP.
I don't see that at all. I have an INTP friend that I love and adore but not seeing cross optics between him being an INFP versus INTP. I am not convinced he is an INFP however.
I am quite sure he is an ISFP!!!
Very unlikely! Even experts say he's an INFP. I totally see myself in him and I'm a true INFP
He is not, many mbti gurus and experts typed him as INFP. He is very idealistic and has more Ne and Si compared to Se and Ni which ISFP has, just because he does physical activities doesn’t mean he is a sensor
