An ENTJ is more focused on the "what". An INTJ is more focused on the "why".
If you know of why then of what becomes self evident ,
I am focused on both. Who am I? My past MBTI test resulted into INTJ while my recent MBTI test results into ENTJ.
@@siddhantmishra3598 The why takes longer and isn't necessary for many things.
And me as ANTJ, or 50% INTJ and 50% ENTJ, without any kind of irony, I am focusing on ''what'' and ''why'', and ofc ''how''
Nah, 'why' is more Ti-Ne axis
Because our INTJ insights are complex and new, it takes more time to decide with Te. But, once we decide, we implement as fast as any TJ.
Yeah. We think things through in more detail so we make less mistakes than an ENTJ who just rushes in to get things done. Just my observation.
@@grazynawolska8160 You are underestimating real life experience. A lot more valuable to think enough, act as soon as possible, learn and keep going. Than be stuck at the thinking phase, very personal to yourself which can lead to many mistakes before bringing it out in the real world.
@@FinnandZimaBlue, I am an INTJ (very likely), I can tell you that you are all underestimating how useful just jumping into action can be for even a small opportunity or something new to try. Your Ni becomes more grounded the more Se is used which is when it becomes most impactful.
I am an ENTJ. Until now I still highlight my similarity to an INTJ because we are ALMOST the same. From your explanation, I find myself high-tempered and prone to stress and frustration very often. Secondly I know that I am obsessed with "success". My personal goal is being successful, I never have this deep personal aspiration without including people (big big big community) into my big empire. It is desiring ❤
Spot... on. Especially the part of "goal achieving"
I always said the difference between those 2 (the main one) would be: INTJ is Te successful in order to achieve Ni vision and ENTJ would create Ni goals in order to fulfil that inner Te will of achievement, what in my words basically means the same what U said.

Sweet. An updated version.
Very clear and well explained. When on the same side, and mature- these two types can get along well. My father (ENTJ) and me (INTJ) can get lost on all kinds of interesting intellectual topics and we can work on my creative projects together where he assists me in executing what I had in mind.
Te-rrific content, Chris.
I watched an ENTJ grow up. They are a energetic force of nature.
When I first found typology, I immediately thought of my son's D&D games and I tried to
type 'My Boys'. It was obvious who I thought was an ENTJ.
He always wanted to DM. He made sure we noticed his shoes and he liked to
talk good food and wine, with me as he began to Adult.
My Boys were professionally Typed in college and then later when they began Careering.
We had quite a character in our ENFP. There were more than a few INTP's including my son and one or two SJ's who grew up to become firemen and military types.
and of course there was one young ESFP who tagged along because my house also was filled with my ESTP's daughter's girlfriends.

Are you an ISFJ?
@@MoPoppins no, I am an INTJ.
I was looking forward to this... It's always been unclear to me which am I. Judging by the video, most, but not all leans towards ENTJ. One thing that I could never really see in myself is the high energy people seem to associate with the ENTJ. Also, I mostly stay at home and don't socialise very much. A note however about the decision making process: I'd call it instinctive, I wouldn't describe it as rational, I don't think things through or weigh pros and cons carefully. It's like a reflex, I sense what the right action is. And then later I find out there was a better, more logical way of doing it, but while not perfect I trust my instinct and follow it without any hesitation. Overall this method has good results, not perfect, but definitely works for me.
on point ! I relate!
Sounds like a Fi
@@nythrox3047 The primary function of an Entj TE works in conjunction with Fi which is their weakest conscious function, so on a nearly subconscious level everything that the ENTJ does through this lead function TE is somehow filtered through their intrinsic values Fi, even though they are not fully aware of it most of the time which lead to sentimental streaks, unlike the Infp who has Fi as their lead function and is fully aware of their values and emotional composition!
@@gabrielalsham2192 "I wouldn't describe it as rational, I don't think things through or weigh pros and cons carefully"
How is this Te
What he described sounds like Fi primary and not Te primary
I find ENTJ to be very forceful and even abrupt sometimes - a fine blade well sharpened, but indiscriminately used can leave a lot of bodies in its wake. INTJ are more like lasers - precision focused but not as easily mobilized, and when they veer off course everything blows up, lol.
Nice work! I’d love to see ENFJ vs ESFJ or ENFJ vs INFJ in the future.
Hello Asura, I know you're not into socionics but what the quadras are a really interesting subject. What about you doing a video about it or at least one of the commonalities between types who share the same cognitive functions.
I actually really like Quadras as a concept, a video on it could be interesting. Thanks for watching!
@@AsuraPsych Oh thats really good to know! I'll he waiting anxiously for the quadra videos 😃
This is a brilliant explanation, I have been typed as both, and find this very clarifying. I will be paying attention to these things you mentioned. Thanks!
I am ANTJ, or 50% INTJ and 50% ENTJ, and i found myself in both of my types in this video
Maybe then you could help me understand this contradiction:
1. ENTJs have Se child meaning they’re quick jumping into action and taking decisions without hesitating much while the Se inferior / insecurity of INTJs holds them back a lot so they take time, over analyze and overthink before taking decision or acting.
2. While at the same time according to Interaction types (CSJoseph and his type grid) its the ENTJs who are triple control (meaning all their ego, subconscious and unconscious are control) so they take the time to plan, strategize, think about the outcome, having full control over it before they take action. While INTJs in their
Interaction type are triple movement (ego, subconscious and unconscious are movement) so they act fast without thinking too much about the outcome or having too much control over planning.
Both understandings seem to be true yet they’re opposite to each other. Thoughts?
I find those definitons of "control" and "movement" to be unsatisfying because of the lack of consistent logical principles. However I have found other insights that might lead to a better framework.
The idea of control vs movement is essentially outcome vs process orientation. Control types will often tend to lock their sight on the edge of the journey, while movement types will instead be more focused on a few next steps to take. In a way, you can say that control types are more orderly while movement types are more chaotic.
For example, one possible reason why all IxTJs are movement types is because their Te is a parent function instead of a hero. And although both hero and parent functions are usually strong, the parent is negativistic and passive, while the hero is positivistic and active. One interpretation is that, for IxTJs, they always have to "obey" instead of "create" Te. They are a follower of Te, not a leader. Thus, they tend to be more careful with their Te and therefore they tend to pay more attention to the steps rather than the outcome.
This is different for ExTJs. Their Te is very much more active and positivistic. They take pride of it and dare to be the ones who create the rules, plans, etc. It's almost as if _they are_ the rules and the plans. I don't have the precise explanation yet but I find it intuitive to imagine Te doms being more concerned with the outcome.
Another example is that an INTP will often have a goal of "true/false/undefined" conclusion in their mind (a product of active-positive Ti-Si). And that conclusion exists at the end of the process, thus the outcome-oriented question "Is it true?" always stays in their mind from the beginning to the end (this is what I mean by "lock their sight on the edge of the journey"). An INTP mathematician will say something like "If A=B and B=C, therefore A=C" → focused on the conclusion "... therefore..." (hence the informativeness of an INTP)
In another case, an ISTP is much more chaotic with his Ti since it is connected to Ni (active-positive Ti-Ni). The question "Is it true?" can't really be answered with this cognition (Ti-Ni is too vague; you'll need Si for that), and that Se parent will often gravitates him toward the here and now such that, for example, when an ISTP martial artist are developing a new technique, he will be much more concerned about each of the body movements of that technique. See how Bruce Lee explains his technique; "The ideal is natural unnaturalness or unnatural naturalness", "You are keeping the continuity growing, bending, strechting", "Be formless, shapeless, like water" → focused on the process "do x, then y, then z" (hence the directness of an ISTP)
P.s all odd functions are both positivistic and active, and all even functions are both negativistic and passive, but typically only the 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 6th functions are "strong". However keep in mind that there seems to be no evidence that shows that any of these attributes are static to a person's personality.
INTJs take our time to analysis and understand things. Once we’ve satisfied our need to understand something, we’re happy make up plans on the fly because there aren’t any dark corners we don’t know about.
ENTJs are happy to jump into a situation then try to control it from the inside as they learn.
@@kokofan50 No way. You're thinking more of ESTJ. The secondary Ni is all about planning and visualizing as well.
@@moukhshiii7220 no, ENTJs are happy to jump in and learn along the way as they’re trying fulfill their Ni vision.
CSJ got the descriptions of movement and outcome very VERY wrong.
I read his source material Dr.Linda Berrens and that's not how she describes movement/progress vs outcome at all.
Being fast paced in acting is actually initiating where being slow and "controlled" is due to being responding.
I had doubts... Now I'm certain, I am an INTJ. Thanks for the valuable information
I'm INFj but I can see some Entj when it comes to leading decision making.great videos👍👍👍👍
My son, 18yrs old is an entj, and I am an intj. Based on my experience with my son, I think you are very accurate.
I'm an INTJ that got 100% judging, I knew the percentage would be high but the actual result is throwing me off the rails.
This breakdown is literally Madara(ENTJ) and Sasuke(INTJ) 😂
A good video idea imo would be Ti as rationalism vs Te as empiricism (philosophy) and how each function shapes a person's epistemological inclinations.
Interesting thoughts. Thank you for sharing
Loved it, Thank you!
Is it possible for INTJ to shift into ENTJ for short periods of time when situations dictate? I seem to straddle that line easily like a chameleon.
Yes, definitely. The more practice you get, the more you build that “muscle.” 💪
@@MoPoppins Thanks for the response. I get a lot of reps building that muscle at work so I was just wondering. It blurs the lines sometimes between the two types.
rather than shifting to an ENTJ, the INTJ is able to use their aux function Te when there is need for it, as the second function is often associated with a tool that you have at your disposel when you need it, but one that does not nessisarily has to be used. It's jus there at your disposal
I was INTJ when I was younger I'm actually sure of it. Life and bad shit that happened forced me to change to ENTJ. It wasn't easy, it was actually hell, but it happened. So I think it's sure as fuck possible. It's only one letter after all.
Cool! A remastered edition!
Seems pretty accurate from my limited experience. Was wondering, you say that INTJ has selfish goals through Fi lens; how does this look for the INFJ sister type and Ti?
What you said about sigma is so correct.
Legion Commander is my favorite dota 2 hero since beginning.. she took me to 2.5 K solo MMR - ENTJ
I’m wondering how to control my anger, I tend to bottle things up and when I’ve reached my limits I explode with anger, I like my smaller rages as it’s generally limited to just yelling, but when things don’t go as planned and I’ve been hiding my anger, it all comes out. I don’t cry but I do know that anger is a more familiar emotion, I’m an ENTJ so I’d like to know some more effective tips, thanks in advance
I'm also an Entj and can totally understand your anger wirh sone people around you.We just care too much for everything to be right.You need to accept that you can't control or force people even if it's a good thing, it's just in our human nature to resist to that.When you see yourself getting mad or angry just shut your mouth and leave.Breathe in and out .And then come back with a lot more laid back attitude and a new plan.
Hi, @Black Swordsman
When I was younger and a bit more prone to anger because even logos
must deal with hormones at one point or another, I found that I was able
to deflect or tamper down these Fi-ts by making myself laugh.
If I threw magazines against a wall instead of throwing a tantrum, those
si-lly magazines fluttering helplessly to the ground as I threw them at the
hapless wall, then this ridiculousness made me giggle. Why, magazines?
Because a Utiliarian Rational doesn't want to buy new dishes.
Later, I discovered the true joy of pranking. revenge may better be defined
as a bunch of bananas hidden in the back Se-at of a car on a hot summer
day because I needed to make a point.
You could also google the Vargus nerve. Simulating the Vargus nerve is
suppose to reduce stress and improve your mood. I have not tried this
because now I am oldish and less likely to need a good prank.
There are some good online doctors
who talk about anxiety and offer advice on tapping into the Vargus Nerve to
reduce these feelings. I like motivational doc and dr eric berg.
And Swordsman, because moms gonna mom, even an INTJ mom...
have you considered taking a Fencing class? I think you would have
fe fi fo fun!
Excellent video. Post more
great insights
Really interested, since my brother is an INTJ and I'm an ENTJ
Breathe between sentences 😊 good content. KR entj
Thank you again for clarifying
I have a grandfather who is an ENTJ and a big argument against me is you think too much and not do so much for that matter. I can relate :D
This is the full confirmation that I'm an INTJ. The moment I read about the wolf types, I knew I aligned with the Sigma type - and here, you talked about the INTJ being the Sigma.
Spot on
Aren't you mixing up Socionics and MBTI? You mentioned that both INTJs and ENTJs are gamma quadra. That's a socionics concept, not MBTI. Many ENTJs are SLE (beta quadra) and LSE (delta quadra).
>> Many ENTJs are SLE (beta quadra) and LSE (delta quadra).
How did you come to this conclusion?
Many type theorists refer to jungian types within Quadras as well. Socionics quadras are defined as types that have the same functions in the value slots, which is socionics 1256, which directly correlates to mbti 1-4. In socionics LIE(ENTj) SEE(ESFp) ESI (ISFj - which is mbti isfp) and ILI (INTp - mbti INTJ) are all gamma quadra and share Fi, Se, Te, and Ni as value functions.
While one "could" make up a different grouping term/definition for mbti functions quadras such as SFPs/NTJs, it would be a waste of time/energy in my opinion as we recognize these value functions as being important within the types in both socionics and mbti.
@@fadingintent Wikisocion. Also that's common knowledge. Many ENTJs throughout the history have been SLEs. Common example of ENTJ SLE: Napoleon Bonaparte.
The socionics results confused me with the INTp until I read its conclusion.
@@AsuraPsych "Many type theorists refer to jungian types within Quadras as well"
Which type theorists are those? I've been studying typology for a while and I've never read that anywhere. As far as I know, quadras are non existent in MBTI. They are only used in socionics typings.
Can you provide any names?
I myself am an INTJ on a extroverted side as 33% is extraversion and 67% is introversion but i have a mate who is 99% introverted and an INTJ can you tell what will be the difference between us having this significant gap.
I don't have an answer for you. I just wanted to say that I, too, am an INTJ with 99% introversion.
@@abbeysparks1526 get bonked then
@@shaurya.ahasueruswaghe12 HAHSHQHAH
@@shaurya.ahasueruswaghe12 that got me for some reason
Unrelated to the video, but do you plan on continuing the series on explaining the cognitive functions?
I was wondering how inferior Se (example an INTJ) would look like in a well trained althlete for example an MMA fighter vs someone who has high Se (example ISTP) MMA fighter assuming they have almost equal experience?
I imagine the INTJ would be more calculating of what happens next while the ISTP is focusing on what’s happening at the moment
@@kalestea Yes I imagine INTJ would take the movements and study them as a system and look for loopholes in the movements that they can exploit. Then they would deploy thus into use. ISTP would just enter the flow and fight.
Dominick Cruz (INTJ) vs Cody Garbrandt (ISTP) would be a good example. Cody is a more fluid natural striker, whereas Dom is the more cerebral yet awkward fighter due to his inferior Se.
@@kalestea intj pro mma fighter probably trained enough that he or she probably can fight like a Esfp
Intjs probably does better in sports like archery and poker compared to Istps but ISTPs probably will be better than intjs at martial arts.
Thanks for sharing
I keep scoring 50/50 E-i. Feels right. Lol
My contention is that they are hardly different in any interesting way.
Hey, thanks for the videos, I've taken the Myers Briggs tests multiple times, the results always say i'm 2 personality types - Architect and Commander, INTJ and ENTJ. I can see myself in the description of both types. i've considered if introvert, extravert, or ambivert applies most to me. I definitely most see myself as an ambivert. Can you maybe make a video about the ambivert types?
Jung introversion and extroversion is not as simple being an extroverted in the general way people often mean it in current society. A function that does somewhat resemble the typical extravert behaviour (in the way that the word is used these days) is Fe. It is attuned to the social world, focussed outwardly. ENTJ's and INTJ's on the other hand have Te, which is aimed outside of the self, but is not really attuned to the social part of the extroverted world. it more so deals with inpersonal objectives and while it can deal with people, it's more sin a similar matter as companies deal with people. It's not really personal. Then it is the question, is this the behaviour of an introvert of an extrovert? Is the type of person who is a workoholic that works together with people on his job there but has no interest in social activities outside of his work a "social person" and thus an extrovert? Is this an introvert or an extrovert in the current description used in society now? It just depends on the defintion used, I would say.
@@PowerRedBullTypology That makes sense, i'll look more into the different types of extraversion and the functions of Fe and Te. Thanks!
tests are never entirely accurate! you have to study functions. online tests are responsible for many mistypes
When i was younger, 30 and below i tested either INTJ or ENTJ; now i always pull XNTJ? Why?
I'm going to stop you at 6 minutes and 41 seconds I know where this might be going I am currently going through the issue at work I think my boss isn't ENFJ and I am an intj and we do not see the same side at all he's trying to get me fired I'm collecting ammo I recently got promoted and given a key to the place so he should be on alert but he's not that smart I don't think I bet I want ENFJ traits so I know how to battle this in the future
Did you have a Blue Slushy 💙 before filming this?🤪
Can someone pls drop me the full DH link of the video's thumbnail? I'd like to change my wallpaper
What do you think about estp mistyped as entj and vice versa
Im an isfp and I watch these and I'm like... Somewhere deep in my subconscious, this is going on in the shadows lol
it could be because isfp has inferior te function lol
You cannot escape me
Hello, fellow ISFP. I too, agree this is going on in the subconscious of our minds. ISFPs truly are a superior type.
Why aren't you more popular?
Can entjs get mistyped as ISTPs
Maybe, doesn't seem like on of the more likely mistypes though. Most ENTJs mistype as INTJ I find or occasionally ENTP.
@@AsuraPsych and what about entj mistyped as intp?
I got mistyped in high school as an ESTJ and I'm an ENTJ in college.
I'm an intj... but how to be sure?
I scored both hahha
Sigma is mostly just coping for loners.
I'd assume 95% of "sigmas" are gammas in denial.
I agree. It started as an alternative social hierarchy theory but we've seen the term transform into a meme for less than socially capable introverts over the past year or so.

Dammit entj intj sorry I get passionate in my speeches and I forget types but I've been studying them all I want to learn everything it's sort of like Pokemon
INxJs tend to be sigma leaders , when they are healthy. An INFJ leader.
