This video and your Observer one are pure genius ... GENIUS! Thank you for piecing this together. You've probably saved my Ni-dominant brain at least 5 years of over-thinking!
Your videos are life-saviour. I have spent the last month reading articles and watching videos that say the same superficial stuff without even explaining it correctly or putting an example because maybe they don't know how to apply it to the real life, to a real person. Dude, THESE are the explanations I was looking for. Thank you so much. + Sorry if i said something wrong cause i'm not a native speaker skjbvdsbr
It's great that even if you only understand the explanation of one function, you can apply the understanding on the other three and comprehend it all. Thank you very much! Now I have a great awareness of my Te-Fi dynamic.
I'm shocked how this man explains the functions and everything. It's just so clear and we'll organized! Me being ti saviour, this helps me take in the info and afterwards organizing it in a way I understand.
What can be said about the "origin" of a type in the MBTI? I mean: how does a child prefer one particular cognitive function over others? Do genes enter into the explanation? And the experiences lived by the child?
zmac I think genetics kind of do play a part since introversion and extroversion seems to be genetic. For instance, I'm an INFP female and my mother is an INTJ and her mother an ESTJ, while her sisters are ENFP and ISTJ. We all have the same functions, just in different orders which is interesting. Meanwhile though, my father is an ISTP, with his father having been an ESTP (idk about what his mother was) and my mother's father is an ISFJ.
intx123 The correlation I pointed out was that my mother, two aunts, grandmother and myself all use Te and Fi, while 4/5 of us use Si and and I'm not trying to say that proves any kind of fact about it being genetic. I'm also talking about the functions, not the letters.
I always struggle to hero worship. I’m even if someone was a president or a famous musician, I find it really hard to see them as anything more than “just people”. I think I am an INTP. I wonder if this is typical for that type.
I can relate and I'm an ISFP. Not sure what that says about me either, but I do know that I really enjoy getting into who someone REALLY is as soon as possible, rather than drifting aimlessly through the regimens of small talk. I like to aim straight for their passion and essence, in as non-intimidating of a way possible! Haha! It's an art, but so worthwhile. So I tend to be unimpressed by their facade because I'm so aware of its inauthenticity. The only person I ever significantly idolized was a relatively small CZcamsr who was unapologetically authentic in every single video and none of that changed as her following grew. To this day she is still 100% herself. It helps that she and I share a ton of similar interests -- that definitely spurred my idolization of her, but even then, I haven't felt that weird "awe" and unrealistic expectations toward her and her image. So I actually end up being more likely to admire someone who is NOT the typical "impressive" type. My INFJ husband is the same way -- he is constantly seeking out the underdog and championing them with deep loyalty, although he is a bit more susceptible than me to interest in celebrities. But still, he's very selective about which ones he admires, and he'll instantly notice when the fame begins to change them, at which point he experiences deep disappointment and sometimes discontinues his admiration. I hope all this anecdotal info is helpful to you, or at least interesting!
Adan Adan yupp. Coming to terms with it. I always thought I was an “intuitive thinker.” Which I am, just didn’t realize my Fe was my “demon.” Just getting to value it more as I age. I lead with my introverted intuition. Ergo, INFJ. :)
Yeah. Thought I was an INxP because of test results, but then realized Ni was my dominant function and has been all my life, and the Ti is how I process stuff internally. I'm kind of an INxJ, because of autism, but Fe does seem to have more effect on me, even if I'm not "great" at it. So yeah INFJ or possibly "INTJ" at times.

My ESFJ friend says that I can really seem cold and impersonally logic at times... I guess this was another misguiding that lead me to INTP.

Meanwhile I as an INTP was getting INTJ because I admire that so much lol you guys are typically intellectually brilliant in my experience ❤️ sounds like you're no different
Great compliment to the Observers video! Can you offer a video that defines each of your main concepts? I think would really TE help a lot of people ; )
I'll say it again, the only thing I disagree with on your entire channel and website is that you use inductive-logic as an analogy for Ti (Introverted Thinking), and deductive-logic as an analogy for Te (extroverted thinking). Even Dario Nardi the INTJ who measures types with EEG sees Ti as deductive: ''In preliminary neuroscience findings by Dario Nardi, Ph.D., strong Ti is correlated with being able to do multiple types of analysis at once. TiNe’s primarily use Deduction and Categorization: "Deduction - Linearly deriving solutions using verbal/symbolic reasoning. For example, if A=B, and B=C, then A=C. Using this region is like moving along the branches of a tree. Categorizing - Categorizing and defining concepts in a holistic way using a “best-fit” process. For example, it helps us determine whether a dolphin better fits in the mammal or fish category as it sorts many categories simultaneously." Notice the attributes of deductive logic 'linear' and 'symbolic' which has similar traits to Ti (linear more focusesd) & (symbolic more subjective) which I am not trying to be a dick here or disrespect your research, just curious why you have decided to put Ti with inductive rather than deductive...
Same! I generally don't know what I think of his generalizations, I think I am just somebody who needs to be put into the mind of whoever primarily uses what. What he says makes sense, I just feel like I'm constantly taking the info and conceptualizing it in the way *I* need to understand.
I must have missed something because this isn't at all how he talked about Ti and Te in the video..? Ti - reasons for yourself, making sure you yourself understand. When you want to make sense of something for yourself. Te - reasons for the tribe, making sure other people understand. When you want people to be on the same page with the reasons for something. Neither of them has anything directly to do with inductive or deductive logic...?
Omg dude I just stumbled upon your channel and it's so fucking great! Love the concise and short, digestible videos that explain the functions incredibly well.
Question: INTJ here, so Te in the second slot. I have strong Te, masculine from what I can tell. HOWEVER. I am not using it to figure out "tribe" reasons, I'm using it to figure out where the tribe is WRONG. I'm strongly opposed to progressivism, for example. Progressivism has ran away with the culture war, at least for the last 25 years. So shouldn't Te make me in tune with "progressive logic"...? Not only am I not in tune with it, I completely disagree with it. ...is it Fi hijacking Te for its own purposes?
Nah, you're guided primarily by Ni, which intuitively feels progressivism is a negative path for humanity. MBTI community treats INTJs like Te doms but we are *not.* Your criticism and, if it exists, action to stem the flow of progressivism, well, that's a means to an end to express your Ni. (intj female here)
@@maddiesiegmund5623 so true, since every other function works towards helping your dominant/first function. So your Ni will be liek, ok Te what do they think, now which makes more sense for me/best path. though ironcially it feels like Ti, i as an ENTJ also do this, i ask people what they thinnk than work with my Ni to see which one makes most sense. and eliminate the options that dont make sense to me on what i think works. As entj i still care ab others validation nd all that but thats sort of how i think.
I have a hard time deciding on things but I found asking other people their experiences and what they thought is really helpful. Not sure what that is. Te? Like if I want to buy a grill, I never had a grill before I don't even grill, but say I wanted to. I would ask a friend who grills what they think is the best grill and go with that.
I would have said Te but I have a Fe friend that goes around asking everyone questions everytime they need to do a decision so... you know it's an extroverted decider, now which one is it ? Reasons or Values ? You have to narrow it down with another angle. You only know it's De.
Nobody else has made me more confused on who I am, all of his videos make me question my identity all the time and I'm so confused now because I've always known myself as an ExxP type but now I'm wondering if I'm not acknowledging my dominant function or if I'm really an ExxJ or IxxP.
They sure do, mine for example is sitting in my rocking chair drinking coffee. I think this channel is such propaganda for the toxic over achievement culture that is destroying and burning out humanity, especially in the US. If I were to use FE as a lead, which I don't, I would build a company or work with spreading peace and calmness to people so that they can relax into their being and drop all this non-sense. Or wait I am doing that, kind of on the side.
I’m so weird because I NEVER cry (literally have cried like 2 times in the last 3 years) and I don’t feel emotions but at the same time I am “empathetic” (I don’t feel emotions, I help other just because it makes sense to me). Ex: when I watch animals die in slaughterhouses I don't feel any emotion, I don't even feel sorry for animals. at the same time I am vegan because there is no point in killing animals. I don’t understand if that’s a Fi thing, a Fe thing or a Ti thing 😩
Thank you today when I referenced my life to guardians of the galaxy two , I got a peace and the beauty was as unrelaxed I was able to give a definitive definition and growth occiured , the four factors mentioned above in your presentation was a basis for the affirmation to my demon side , and in addition to this the day did not go as planned but it was different and real , and now I can behave a little better , and I saw the critical review of Jurassic park , and this is why I speak to people who understand me , Julian asked a question about how you bringing back the dinosaurs is there time travel involved and I went like the anser is there I would find it , and the critical review of Jurassic park , had me understanding my brother family a little better , he discussed it like dinasaurs , big , dinasaurs bad , and bullets don't work , and he has spoiled theovie for me already and if the little girl saw the movie she got the message , so she is not as frightening as she was In addition to this I told Julian that the tall man was imitating certain aspects of my personality and he was annoying me and Julian said don't say that and I said Julian what you don't understand is if he was annoying me , ( and he is pushing it just enough logically ,and he is keeping the character ) I finally understand why when some people were sent as weapons against me they did not prosper with me , and worst case scenario as in the bell curve , they only had two variables alpha and beta and sigma was not on the radar , and I understand their flawed methodology , and I understood the game Andre husband played with me , and I am not angry as I was , and I know certain reactions I got from my brother where I have sean a shift and he is going the game like a good teacher , silence is golden and i read it through body language , he is like a canvas to my manifestation and yesterday he went like brother I understand and the people who love you ( the people who love me is the positive side of the 16 bullerstreet mafia) and the street conversations with Julian was even more interesting and I have to believe him to put some love in the game , and I had choice I almost walked away to come back later from the food and I said you are here already and , the tears in the car , today they were like ok you like movies ,let me show you from a marvel perspective and with that discourse i went like , wow And as I said it was a spur of the moment idea and I went like now I can put down that cross , because as I said I was supposed to play a while , before I went back to being an adult , because the adults some of them the people who love me , it's like just think and be . And as I said if I could look at tall man knows he is imitating a part of my personality and I could go nah he kind of annoying but it nice to see it's nice to go so this is what the nonnfamily viewerss saw and I went like , Ok a next example is pops where frogy boy don't ask me nothing about he and I just start to laugh so seeing those mirrors it is good to understand how hilarious it really was and now I am in on the joke I am Having more faith and believing more in the maths , like the music playing now brought a certain level of anxiety now it cool , and the unicorn is a good example and I keep looking for a reason to behave and as I said in the past when people told me to behave I said I am behaving I am behaving like dale , now I am behaving more like Dale Richard and I usually throw in a comment because I am hurting all I have to say is thank god for the guardians of the galaxy two , and Andre husband acted all inocent you believe in aliens and all I have to say is if , basically if you are an intergalactic ego ,just know if you can't have your way with an earthling then go breed on the other planets , go fadder breed some other son gyal , and I am not being an intergalactic racist or anything but , earth women are the best in the galaxy and I know Krishna and the high council will send me back here , all I have to say is both gamora and quin were younger than me when the movie was made and the black light joke , if all you even knew .
a few videos ago i started to think i was IENSTFPJ but now i realised i completely skip Te and instead rely on Ti, thinking if i can explain it to myself it is logical so???? what does that mean (oh and also i don’t have any problems with the rest of the functions, i think lol)
Can i share something with you....as an intp i think i know a lot about mbti but i guess I need to test that by talking or sharing with you cuz i see that i look at different angle than anybody and your stuff really help me develop my angle a lot lot
Is this question directed towards everyone else reading this as well? If so, hey, sure thing, tell me how to contact you and I'll be happy to discuss some mbti! =)
I’ve never done anything for the tribe. I kind of don’t really give a crap about the tribe. Yet I am afraid of being alone and unloved. I wonder what that means.
but then why are introverted children more obedient than extroverted children? my mom from the children's class and I asked her about it. and introverted girls tend to be more attached to the family (original tribe) than extroverted women.
Maybe it has to do with the nature of the first introverted function. If youre an introverted sensor, stereotypically you prefer the same things, you are drawn to the familiar (ie family). For the others, fi, ti, and ni, they all work similarly, they are personal and important to them. Whereas extroverted functions are expansive and more steroetypically exploratory. So maybe you seek out new sensory experience (Se) which leads you further from the familiar like family. And new ideas, more concepts, more understandings (Ne). I can see how Fe would be more likely to be involved with family than an introverted type though. I think intjs would probably be more stereotypically in their minds about ideas and not as attached maybe to family as an ESFJ, who would probably seem more family oriented, as extroverts. I think introversion and extroversion are broad brushes to use for the obedience family oriented discussion. However quiet kids are probably going to stand out as obedient, because they are probably more alientated from the group and are observers. So they will probably seek nurturing from a teacher or family even more than thw others who have lots of friends, because they arent getting it from the group. And they maybe observe and watch how things play out, making it easy for them to see what a mistake acting out is, since acting out leads the disobedient kid to suffer.
@@miriamava9512 Well from my experience, Te saviors don’t move without purpose. And they really like moving and doing things. I think having Fi lower on the scale of importance lends to a disrespect of ones own feelings but I find they usually know what they care about pretty outwardly. It’s the Fe dominants that lack this ability to examine the self because they are so far removed from the Fi. As a Ti dominant, i can at least explain and examine my values/feelings and while i may not feel them as passionately as Fi’s ever do, I can at least sympathize. Often times Fe folks fail to ever express their inner desires because they’re always trying to please the tribe.
The tribe = group, so yeah, literally anything you want that is not you, so yes, your target demographic works. I'm designing that product for this group of person, can this group of person like this, or make use of this, does it make sense to them ?
And then you meet artists. Do they value if their art fits the tribe or anything? Do they value if their creation will be usefull and understandable by everyone? No... The procces of creation is of more importance to them than anything. The way to express one self is what they value. This Fi-Fe-Ti-Te approach is only usefull as a business model Bonus round: guess my type
Lol. Your methodology is so linear. Things don't happen in this step-by-step fashion in real life. People often develop one bit of each judging function/decider at a time. A bit like having 4 empty shot glasses and pouring the vodka with a back and forth motion of the bottle. (Apologies to all the teatotallers out there.) All in all, people need to be patient with themselves and take the time to grow, instead of racing towards nowhere
Hi Dave, you do know your videos are scaring some people away who might otherwise be interested? I personally don’t mind your style but friends in the typing community are saying that they feel like you’re berating them and one actually said you gave her a headache. Do with this what you will but it looks like your approach to the tribe may possibly need adjusting. Thanks btw for all the content, very interesting stuff!
No offense but if people aren’t comfotable with the way he does things they can just, not look at it. You can’t just expect a person to change to how you want- especially if youre not some family or something. There’s no problem with the way he was talking, unless you take it personally. They should know that if something makes them uncomfortable it’s about them, it doesnt mean he’s doing something wrong just because they’re uncomfortable with it. You legit said “they feel like” well i feel like others do lot’s of wrong things but it’s about me, not them.
I like your model, but... Nature hates perfect symmetry, there is always an asterisk. Fe without the tribe is? Miserable. What is Te without a tribe? Still Te. When I build for myself, it is still to answer a need, it will be practical and aligned with the world, tribe is not a concern. When I create for the market, I mostly account for the tribe’s capabilities, but sometimes I just make what I like. They'll follow if the idea has merit. Take Japanese cars, they are truly purpose built for the tribe. German cars are crafted for their own tastes. They don’t care if there is more maintenance, they want their cars to feel like German cars, value overrides the tribe. It is still an expression of Te.
yeap, my point was that he had very detailed/ kind of his own explanations of mbti rules in this and other videos, but i just realized strong Ti is connected with P element and they dont usually make strong statements like him, they even questioning their own thoughts and they wont tell someone strictly what to think. BTW i wouldnt say that he sounds like shy, introvert INTJ, more like ENTJ maybe? they both use strong Te. and based on that, are u strong te/fi user?
vaja eremeishvili I'm ENTP man , and dave ( the one on the video ) INTJ Te user , and why he is not shy because he become almost old man haha , how you want him to be shy , only young INTJ's are shy , the old INTJ's don't have problem with this , and you wonder why he talk fast like this , because he talk on internet and record video, like someone talk to him self not face to face with people, that why he feel comfortable here when he talk.
This channel is underrated. ..

Ok, just read about "jumpers" on your site... so I have answered one of my questions... but would still love to hear from you :).
Meanwhile I as an INTP was getting INTJ because I admire that so much lol you guys are typically intellectually brilliant in my experience ❤️ sounds like you're no different
Great compliment to the Observers video! Can you offer a video that defines each of your main concepts? I think would really TE help a lot of people ; )
I'll say it again, the only thing I disagree with on your entire channel and website is that you use inductive-logic as an analogy for Ti (Introverted Thinking), and deductive-logic as an analogy for Te (extroverted thinking).
Even Dario Nardi the INTJ who measures types with EEG sees Ti as deductive:
''In preliminary neuroscience findings by Dario Nardi, Ph.D., strong Ti is correlated with being able to do multiple types of analysis at once. TiNe’s primarily use Deduction and Categorization:
"Deduction - Linearly deriving solutions using verbal/symbolic reasoning. For example, if A=B, and B=C, then A=C. Using this region is like moving along the branches of a tree.
Categorizing - Categorizing and defining concepts in a holistic way using a “best-fit” process. For example, it helps us determine whether a dolphin better fits in the mammal or fish category as it sorts many categories simultaneously."
Notice the attributes of deductive logic 'linear' and 'symbolic' which has similar traits to Ti (linear more focusesd) & (symbolic more subjective) which I am not trying to be a dick here or disrespect your research, just curious why you have decided to put Ti with inductive rather than deductive...
Same!
I generally don't know what I think of his generalizations, I think I am just somebody who needs to be put into the mind of whoever primarily uses what. What he says makes sense, I just feel like I'm constantly taking the info and conceptualizing it in the way *I* need to understand.
I must have missed something because this isn't at all how he talked about Ti and Te in the video..?
Ti - reasons for yourself, making sure you yourself understand. When you want to make sense of something for yourself.
Te - reasons for the tribe, making sure other people understand. When you want people to be on the same page with the reasons for something.
Neither of them has anything directly to do with inductive or deductive logic...?
@@timo4258 i agree- idk where they took that ‘-‘
"aaaare you studip?!?!" 🤣🤣🤣
Amazzzing content. Understanding a lot from your channel ♥️
Omg dude I just stumbled upon your channel and it's so fucking great! Love the concise and short, digestible videos that explain the functions incredibly well.
Yup
4:10 lmao, perfect Te vs Ti analogy
Question: INTJ here, so Te in the second slot. I have strong Te, masculine from what I can tell. HOWEVER. I am not using it to figure out "tribe" reasons, I'm using it to figure out where the tribe is WRONG. I'm strongly opposed to progressivism, for example. Progressivism has ran away with the culture war, at least for the last 25 years. So shouldn't Te make me in tune with "progressive logic"...? Not only am I not in tune with it, I completely disagree with it. ...is it Fi hijacking Te for its own purposes?
Nah, you're guided primarily by Ni, which intuitively feels progressivism is a negative path for humanity. MBTI community treats INTJs like Te doms but we are *not.* Your criticism and, if it exists, action to stem the flow of progressivism, well, that's a means to an end to express your Ni. (intj female here)
@@maddiesiegmund5623 Thanks.
@@maddiesiegmund5623 so true, since every other function works towards helping your dominant/first function. So your Ni will be liek, ok Te what do they think, now which makes more sense for me/best path. though ironcially it feels like Ti, i as an ENTJ also do this, i ask people what they thinnk than work with my Ni to see which one makes most sense. and eliminate the options that dont make sense to me on what i think works. As entj i still care ab others validation nd all that but thats sort of how i think.
I Love how you describe this stuff!
Thank you awesome dave
I have a hard time deciding on things but I found asking other people their experiences and what they thought is really helpful. Not sure what that is. Te? Like if I want to buy a grill, I never had a grill before I don't even grill, but say I wanted to. I would ask a friend who grills what they think is the best grill and go with that.
I would have said Te but I have a Fe friend that goes around asking everyone questions everytime they need to do a decision so... you know it's an extroverted decider, now which one is it ? Reasons or Values ? You have to narrow it down with another angle. You only know it's De.
That's like an Fi Te decision

@@miriamava9512 Jujutsu Kaisen? Megumi is from Saekano, unless I misunderstood :)
Nobody else has made me more confused on who I am, all of his videos make me question my identity all the time and I'm so confused now because I've always known myself as an ExxP type but now I'm wondering if I'm not acknowledging my dominant function or if I'm really an ExxJ or IxxP.
not me jumping at 3:43 when he said "are you stupid??" XD
(great video btw)
Are you sure everybody has some kind of "kill for" passion at their core? If that's your baseline assumption, it needs backing up.
JCSIMO are you joking XD-
They sure do, mine for example is sitting in my rocking chair drinking coffee. I think this channel is such propaganda for the toxic over achievement culture that is destroying and burning out humanity, especially in the US. If I were to use FE as a lead, which I don't, I would build a company or work with spreading peace and calmness to people so that they can relax into their being and drop all this non-sense. Or wait I am doing that, kind of on the side.
Enlightening to see all those attributes at work.
I’m so weird because I NEVER cry (literally have cried like 2 times in the last 3 years) and I don’t feel emotions but at the same time I am “empathetic” (I don’t feel emotions, I help other just because it makes sense to me).
Ex: when I watch animals die in slaughterhouses I don't feel any emotion, I don't even feel sorry for animals. at the same time I am vegan because there is no point in killing animals.
I don’t understand if that’s a Fi thing, a Fe thing or a Ti thing 😩
I think its fe in my opiniom
not sure but someone saying "it makes sense" to them sounds like Ti to me
Thats just edgyness bro
You're Ti dom
Tfw you lead with Ne but you have equally strong Ti and Fi with average Te and weak Fe and your stack is technically impossible
Thank you today when I referenced my life to guardians of the galaxy two , I got a peace and the beauty was as unrelaxed I was able to give a definitive definition and growth occiured , the four factors mentioned above in your presentation was a basis for the affirmation to my demon side , and in addition to this the day did not go as planned but it was different and real , and now I can behave a little better , and I saw the critical review of Jurassic park , and this is why I speak to people who understand me , Julian asked a question about how you bringing back the dinosaurs is there time travel involved and I went like the anser is there I would find it , and the critical review of Jurassic park , had me understanding my brother family a little better , he discussed it like dinasaurs , big , dinasaurs bad , and bullets don't work , and he has spoiled theovie for me already and if the little girl saw the movie she got the message , so she is not as frightening as she was
In addition to this I told Julian that the tall man was imitating certain aspects of my personality and he was annoying me and Julian said don't say that and I said
Julian what you don't understand is if he was annoying me , ( and he is pushing it just enough logically ,and he is keeping the character ) I finally understand why when some people were sent as weapons against me they did not prosper with me , and worst case scenario as in the bell curve , they only had two variables alpha and beta and sigma was not on the radar , and I understand their flawed methodology , and I understood the game Andre husband played with me , and I am not angry as I was , and I know certain reactions I got from my brother where I have sean a shift and he is going the game like a good teacher , silence is golden and i read it through body language , he is like a canvas to my manifestation and yesterday he went like brother I understand and the people who love you ( the people who love me is the positive side of the 16 bullerstreet mafia) and the street conversations with Julian was even more interesting and I have to believe him to put some love in the game , and I had choice I almost walked away to come back later from the food and I said you are here already and , the tears in the car , today they were like ok you like movies ,let me show you from a marvel perspective and with that discourse i went like , wow
And as I said it was a spur of the moment idea and I went like now I can put down that cross , because as I said I was supposed to play a while , before I went back to being an adult , because the adults some of them the people who love me , it's like just think and be . And as I said if I could look at tall man knows he is imitating a part of my personality and I could go nah he kind of annoying but it nice to see it's nice to go so this is what the nonnfamily viewerss saw and I went like ,
Ok a next example is pops where frogy boy don't ask me nothing about he and I just start to laugh so seeing those mirrors it is good to understand how hilarious it really was and now I am in on the joke I am
Having more faith and believing more in the maths , like the music playing now brought a certain level of anxiety now it cool , and the unicorn is a good example and I keep looking for a reason to behave and as I said in the past when people told me to behave I said I am behaving I am behaving like dale , now I am behaving more like Dale Richard and I usually throw in a comment because I am hurting all I have to say is thank god for the guardians of the galaxy two , and Andre husband acted all inocent you believe in aliens and all I have to say is if , basically if you are an intergalactic ego ,just know if you can't have your way with an earthling then go breed on the other planets , go fadder breed some other son gyal , and I am not being an intergalactic racist or anything but , earth women are the best in the galaxy and I know Krishna and the high council will send me back here , all I have to say is both gamora and quin were younger than me when the movie was made and the black light joke , if all you even knew .
Brilliant Dave!
Helps me a lot, appreciate it
Still confused about the differences
a few videos ago i started to think i was IENSTFPJ but now i realised i completely skip Te and instead rely on Ti, thinking if i can explain it to myself it is logical so???? what does that mean (oh and also i don’t have any problems with the rest of the functions, i think lol)
Can i share something with you....as an intp i think i know a lot about mbti but i guess I need to test that by talking or sharing with you cuz i see that i look at different angle than anybody and your stuff really help me develop my angle a lot lot
zack gudal You can go to their website by the way.
Is this question directed towards everyone else reading this as well?
If so, hey, sure thing, tell me how to contact you and I'll be happy to discuss some mbti! =)
Someone Random ok then.....i guess Facebook is good enough.....my name is zakaria Gudal in there
StiffRime i know
This is brilliant!
I’ve never done anything for the tribe. I kind of don’t really give a crap about the tribe. Yet I am afraid of being alone and unloved. I wonder what that means.
but then why are introverted children more obedient than extroverted children? my mom from the children's class and I asked her about it.
and introverted girls tend to be more attached to the family (original tribe) than extroverted women.
Maybe it has to do with the nature of the first introverted function. If youre an introverted sensor, stereotypically you prefer the same things, you are drawn to the familiar (ie family). For the others, fi, ti, and ni, they all work similarly, they are personal and important to them. Whereas extroverted functions are expansive and more steroetypically exploratory. So maybe you seek out new sensory experience (Se) which leads you further from the familiar like family. And new ideas, more concepts, more understandings (Ne). I can see how Fe would be more likely to be involved with family than an introverted type though. I think intjs would probably be more stereotypically in their minds about ideas and not as attached maybe to family as an ESFJ, who would probably seem more family oriented, as extroverts. I think introversion and extroversion are broad brushes to use for the obedience family oriented discussion. However quiet kids are probably going to stand out as obedient, because they are probably more alientated from the group and are observers. So they will probably seek nurturing from a teacher or family even more than thw others who have lots of friends, because they arent getting it from the group. And they maybe observe and watch how things play out, making it easy for them to see what a mistake acting out is, since acting out leads the disobedient kid to suffer.
it depends more on the person- and what that person above me said.

You look like a Fe decider... What mbti type are you?
Uhhhhhhh I’m 32 and I still don’t know what I value 🤦🏻♀️ I have to think really hard about that which makes it hard to figure out Fi or Fe...
classic Fe response lol
@@breakfastenjoyer or Te if low Fi development lol
@@miriamava9512 Well from my experience, Te saviors don’t move without purpose. And they really like moving and doing things. I think having Fi lower on the scale of importance lends to a disrespect of ones own feelings but I find they usually know what they care about pretty outwardly. It’s the Fe dominants that lack this ability to examine the self because they are so far removed from the Fi. As a Ti dominant, i can at least explain and examine my values/feelings and while i may not feel them as passionately as Fi’s ever do, I can at least sympathize. Often times Fe folks fail to ever express their inner desires because they’re always trying to please the tribe.
Clap clap good sir
I've decided to watch
Oscar Chavez I've decided to observe
Did DaveSuperPowers ever mention what his type is?
Yes, NiFi INTJ to be exact.
Thank you!
I love fighting the universe, fuck the universe.
Can you be both Fi and Ti and how would that effect the other main functions?
But I can't hear other people over the sound of how awesome I am D:
IKR. PEOPLE SHOULD JUST BE AS AWESOME AS ME!!!!
Im already exhausted. LOL
This guy talks hundred on hour. 1000 km/hour
In a business sense, shouldn't Fe and Te be about your target demographic? Instead of EVERYBODY?
The tribe = group, so yeah, literally anything you want that is not you, so yes, your target demographic works. I'm designing that product for this group of person, can this group of person like this, or make use of this, does it make sense to them ?
4:15 Lmao.
And then you meet artists. Do they value if their art fits the tribe or anything? Do they value if their creation will be usefull and understandable by everyone? No... The procces of creation is of more importance to them than anything. The way to express one self is what they value.
This Fi-Fe-Ti-Te approach is only usefull as a business model
Bonus round: guess my type
Fucking IKEA
Mega :)
Or, just get married and have kids and not worry about China.
lmaooooooo i love this, funny
OP whats your type?
Lol. Your methodology is so linear. Things don't happen in this step-by-step fashion in real life.
People often develop one bit of each judging function/decider at a time. A bit like having 4 empty shot glasses and pouring the vodka with a back and forth motion of the bottle. (Apologies to all the teatotallers out there.)
All in all, people need to be patient with themselves and take the time to grow, instead of racing towards nowhere
Hi Dave, you do know your videos are scaring some people away who might otherwise be interested? I personally don’t mind your style but friends in the typing community are saying that they feel like you’re berating them and one actually said you gave her a headache. Do with this what you will but it looks like your approach to the tribe may possibly need adjusting. Thanks btw for all the content, very interesting stuff!
No offense but if people aren’t comfotable with the way he does things they can just, not look at it. You can’t just expect a person to change to how you want- especially if youre not some family or something. There’s no problem with the way he was talking, unless you take it personally. They should know that if something makes them uncomfortable it’s about them, it doesnt mean he’s doing something wrong just because they’re uncomfortable with it. You legit said “they feel like” well i feel like others do lot’s of wrong things but it’s about me, not them.
Wow you sound annoyed. Like you already expect your audience to know this stuff.
lol
I like your model, but... Nature hates perfect symmetry, there is always an asterisk. Fe without the tribe is? Miserable. What is Te without a tribe? Still Te. When I build for myself, it is still to answer a need, it will be practical and aligned with the world, tribe is not a concern. When I create for the market, I mostly account for the tribe’s capabilities, but sometimes I just make what I like. They'll follow if the idea has merit. Take Japanese cars, they are truly purpose built for the tribe. German cars are crafted for their own tastes. They don’t care if there is more maintenance, they want their cars to feel like German cars, value overrides the tribe. It is still an expression of Te.
Ang gulo mo
He is strong Ti user
vaja eremeishvili he is INTJ with Te , and you thought you know how analyze things meh..
yeap, my point was that he had very detailed/ kind of his own explanations of mbti rules in this and other videos, but i just realized strong Ti is connected with P element and they dont usually make strong statements like him, they even questioning their own thoughts and they wont tell someone strictly what to think. BTW i wouldnt say that he sounds like shy, introvert INTJ, more like ENTJ maybe? they both use strong Te. and based on that, are u strong te/fi user?
vaja eremeishvili I'm ENTP man , and dave ( the one on the video ) INTJ Te user , and why he is not shy because he become almost old man haha , how you want him to be shy , only young INTJ's are shy , the old INTJ's don't have problem with this , and you wonder why he talk fast like this , because he talk on internet and record video, like someone talk to him self not face to face with people, that why he feel comfortable here when he talk.
You might enjoy this song -Live @ ДДТ - "Метель" [DDT - "Snowstorm"] , seems i have to practice more )
Actually, Ti and Ni are the strongest functions of the INTJ. they just don’t value Ti, and would rather use Te, which is weaker.
Why do you have to make it about business?
this video have nothing new man , bring new stuff , don't talk about same circles just because your channel need to be refreshed.
