    INFJ Life Coach Lesson: Rejection is a part of life. It's not always easy to handle, but it doesn't have to hold you back in your journey towards success!
    The INFJ has been rejected their entire existence- this can be seen as something common for humans since we all experience rejections at some point or another during our lives. But there are different kinds of rejection; Some may make us feel worse than others but once we understand how to cope with them, we can focus our energy on creating the life we always knew we could have.

      Not at all. I said no to people recently who think that everyone should love and adore them, that they are so good and so clever. I’m sure it’s devastating for their egos. I’m surprised how good it felt to stand up for myself and realise they just aren’t my cup of tea in the first place. They always made me feel uncomfortable.

      Yes, if they annoy me one time too many, I will start picking apart all the inconsistencies in their thought processes and how they contradict themselves or the outcomes they want will not happen with how they are going about it. It´s like they´re a deer in the headlights, then the start gaslighting you and saying you are ridiculous, or crazy, etc. 99% of the time what I said comes true. A couple of people have come back and admitted I was right. I didn´t want to be right, I just wanted them to stop talking obvious BS (well, it was obvious to me lol).

      This is so true! I caught a friend of mine in a big lie and it's been hard for me to let it go. I want to know why they said what they did. Why not just say the truth?
      I am a strange person with a daredevil soul. If someone says to me " I would love to get a tattoo with you on our date" or " Yes, let's go see the spider exhibit at the fairgrounds", I take them at their word. My sleeve is rolled up and the tarantula is being retrieved from it's aquarium. Why did you not show up?
      The only acceptable answer is a case of the green apple splatters near the food trucks. That fried rice was not quality. If you chicken out, that's ok. Just don't ghost me or cry. It harshes my mellow.

I still deal with this now, having to remind myself that their opinion isn’t about me even if they are people I care about. Some people in my life have been not good for me. So if I did or said anything that they didn’t like, they’d make me pay. Usually with their words or by withholding affection or by blaming me for their feelings. Which would make me feel guilty because I’d give their perspective value, and I’d forget that their “right” wasn’t ultimately “right”

The big difference is I DO get respect now. And don't give a *uck about being rejected (as I did as a kid and young man). Strangely enough, more people LIKE me when I'm 'out there' this way.

    Imagine becoming a senior and evolving into not taking abuse slowly over the last decade. I've had the closest people be narcissists and they seek revenge, once you look like you are establishing boundaries.
    Its so insulting to have a family that says " you want respect? No way!"
    But I am prospering in my no family life. Fortunately my mind set has been to provide for myself, or I would be pushed out on an iceberg by my Grandkids . The list of things I've endured is long. You are absolutely correct in your evaluation.

    I have the skills to pay my bills, and I will not abandon my inner peace for other people's drama and insecurities in my discernment and capabilities. My freedom in myself while adhering to the general "societal rules" creatively, makes me a target to people's egos all the time. So I risk embarrassment 😸 taking steps towards my goals, is believing it until I achieve it. My actions are my bonds, and my word is my wand. My vision, IS DEFINITELY my north star. I'm an old soul, with a young ass spirit. Making authentic decisions for myself, require some major discomfort and disappointing other people. Little to no friends, mean no frauds for me. I love my choices, and the person I AM BECOMING.

    It's exposure therapy. Simple as that. If you do that one thing you are uncomfortable doing enough times, sooner or later you will realize it's actually not that hard.
    The best way of doing it is tying the activity to a goal i.e. if you are are afraid of talking to strangers you get yourself into a position where you need to do exactly that in order to finish your job. I was doing it, being a volunteer staff member on an international festival and after the initial hesitance (Englisch isn't my first language) seeing the progress I made and how far I went outside my comfort zone was nothing short of transformative.

      @@joejoejoejoejoejoe4391 that's the issue. Asking "a few" women is clearly not enough. Also, women's decision making depends on so many factors (including how they feel in the moment) that it's basically random if they agree on a meeting so don't be discouraged if you don't get the desired outcome. Despite, you should never make your success with women the defining factor of your happiness. And I'm telling you that being single for most of my life, as well. Being in a relationship is a novelty, not an essential.
      The grave mistake you're doing is giving up right when it starts hurting. You were about to cross the boundaries of your comfort zone. Do it, endure the pain... Observe what it does to you... Embrace it and start growing as a person.

      @@HoshPak I guess I hadn't asked that many women out, about 6, when I thought that I'd go to dancing lessons to meet more women, so I could ask them out, or at least get to know them. It took 3 and a half years of dancing lessons until ONE woman my age turned up, that's about 350 lessons and around £2,100.00p spent on them, just to give me the opportunity to ask one woman out, that's how much effort some men have to put in. And I had to walk over to her in front of over 100 people, ask her to dance, get rejected, then walk back to my seat alone. I just can't do that all over again, just to be rejected again. Asking a woman out is a really big deal for me, it's always been very difficult, but to women it means absolutely NOTHING, or they even take it as an insult.

    @lindateuling7862 Před rokem +9

    This is good, practical advice on how to handle rejection. I don't think that anyone enjoys rejection in general - and we INFJs in particular take it hard due to the reasons you mention here. Also, a lot of us are sensitive, which makes it even more of a challenge.
    But I think we're all capable of saying, "Ok! Enough's enough." And I believe that we indeed can reach a point (either because of prolonged verbal abuse rejection or rejection by being ignored) where we then realize that we're wasting our time. For me, pursuing what I like and want to do can put me in eventual contact with people who value me and what I like and vice-versa.

    Often times the people we fear will go away if we speak up, do go away when we speak up! The second someone is corrected on their behavior, they can lash out and become worse. Then I can see that the only way to know this person is to tolerate the bad behavior! Other times I may tell someone about the horrible ways they've behaved towards me and there's no response, just indignant silence and then then they go away! So yes, abandonment is a very real possibility when we do speak up. The only thing I can say is it's an opportunity to forge new bonds with healthier people when the toxic ones run away because they're confronted.

We are human, we are not perfect, and all of us have different parts good at. No 2. Build our confidence by daily live.

  • @PleasuresOfPerfectionism

    Hi, and thank you.
    To go even more deeper, our human animal biological death anxiety, or our natural physical drive for self-preservation, is the underlying unconscious influence for why we human animals fear rejection and abandonment.
    Rejection and abandonment are naturally perceived by our bodies as a biological threat to our physical survival. Why? If and when a group and or if and when someone we physically depend on or is expected to keep our bodies safe and alive - is perceived by our bodies - to be stopping with helping to keep our bodies safe and alive, our biological defensive animal instinct of self preservation is naturally threatened.
    When we really understand and accept this hidden defense mechanism, and diligently keep ourselves aware of this hidden influence, on ourselves and on other humans, we will less stressfully react less and feel less confused over feeling rejected and feeling abandoned. We will feel less confused about why we humans act like we do overall and in most everything we all do. Having and carrying this awareness at the forefront of our everyday lives, we will feel less anxious or stressed overall. We will be healthier humans overall.
    When we face our biological or inherent death anxiety, and gradually dissolve our defensive and biological denial of death by understanding why the denial of death exists, we will more mentally and emotionally pause before reacting to and feeling stressed over perceived threats like rejection and abandonment. They will be more inner and outer peace in our lives. We will more accurately analyze our thinking more, and therefore we will decide on and act on better decisions, or more constructive and healthier prosocial actions now and in the future.
    We will have less frustrated, angry and morally righteous outbursts, and less painful door slams. Why? We will understand more of why we INFJs are driven to help others.
    Our helping others is actually helping with our own biological self preservation. For eg, when we try to help say a regularly angry or constantly crisis producing human animal calm down, we are actually trying to help create more peace and safety in our life.
    But, when our helping is perceived accurately or inaccurately by another as a physical threat to another person and or group, and their unconscious death anxiety influences them to reject and abandon us, naturally our survival defense mechanism can be triggered. A INFJ door slam can understandably happen.
    When our help is rejected and abandoned, our own death terror can be triggered to irrationally feel like it is the end of our lives and that we are all completely doomed. When what we INFJs do to try and help others is brutally kicked down, cruelly crushed and terrorizingly trashed, the best way to think about this reaction is to understand that this is just a biological defensive reaction - it is just the other person’s or a group’s collective unconscious terror of and denial of their impending physical death kicking in.
    Peace ✌🏼💀

    Even as a child, before I realised I'm an INFJ, I understood why the bullies tried to bully me.
    They tried to bully me because I'm not afraid of them, even when it is just me vs a group.
    Bullies simply fear what they can't understand.
    My parents raised me to not be a coward so if it came to a fight I would at least take 1 of them down with me.
    It also helps that I rather stayed & fight than run away and be consumed by fear.
    And even when I lost, I lost to a majority and was proud of myself of not having ran away.
    Broken bones heal faster than a broken spirit anyway.
    And I never got in trouble for fighting, cauz my parents understood what it means to grow up colored in a white society.
    I guess this is why I despise groups, I hate the 1 bully aka the leader, who surrounds himself with followers.
    I learned as a 6 year old that safety is an illusion, that being part of a group doesn't offer safety; that there is no safety in numbers.
    How did I reached these conclusions?
    Because even as a 6 year old I figured out that my parents were lying to me because they insisted that Sinterklaas (the Dutch Santa Claus) is real while I already had figured out that he didn't exist. Somehow I made the connection between the Sint's presents, my dad's early shift work and the car's trunk.
    And because I'm a light sleeper and always woke up when my dad went to work at 6 pm I decided to spy on him on the day we would receive our presents.
    Through my bedroom window I saw my father going to the trunk of his car, pick up the presents and bring them into the house and concluded then and there that Sinterklaas didn't exist.
    Which brought me to my next question: *Why did my parents lie to me?*
    And if my own parents already lied to me about Sinterklaas, what other lies have they told me?
    I guess that from that point on I decided to take everything anyone told me with a grain of salt and figure things out myself.

    My 30-year-old daughter turned on me when she was 14. She thought I was going to die from my disability and I did not. Ever since then she has been acting like I abused her and I'm horrible. I want to drop her but her personal problems are severe enough from ADHD that I worry about her ending up homeless. And it doesn't help that people keep telling me she doesn't mean it. I am having major problems extricating myself from her. Even though I know I have to for my own sanity, I feel like such a hideously horrible person for abandoning my daughter. All I wanted growing up was a family member who cared about me, and I can't comprehend how that doesn't matter to her when I am the only one who was there for her. I am ashamed writing this😭

      Do not feel ashamed or alone. I am having a similar problem with my 38 year old daughter. Do you take care of yourself or them? I know that doesn't help solve anything. I just want you to know you don't have to feel like the bad guy.

      @@yukon9315 thank you for being kind. she lives alone and has a job which is much to be thankful for. She only calls me for help, but when I try to talk to her about anything else she can set my PTSD off so fast it's like a bomb went off in my head. All those years I kept her from upsetting me and now I get upset just thinking about her. I always wondered how people's kids could just turn on them and now that mine has I still can't understand it or deal with it.

      @Rowan, recommend reading about trauma bonds and getting triggered from abusive or traumatic situations. The pain you must feel can be overwhelming. But the path to healing yourself begins with You. What you control. What is positive for you. What do you need protection from. Go ahead and help yiur daughter bcs it's the right thing for you _ not because you expect anything in return or equal access to her. You don't control her. You have to accept that and focus on healing your spirit.

    I used to be a fawning pathetic codependent but after a few bad breakups (with girlfriends, a wife, and a few bands) I grew a huge pair and don't care; I was a cynical punk to begin with, but now I feel like a superpunk carrying a big axe ready to chop off anyone who dares disrespect me. And you know what? I now enjoy cutting ppl off. It's empowering and liberating to stand up for yourself. Try it.

    Love this video! One thought: I've been living at home with parents as I just got out of college and trying to grow my youtube channel that I'm most passionate about because it allows me to express myself. I'm not monetised as of yet but have been growing so much because I'm investing myself more and more into it with a part time job on the side. I'm pretty much done trying to convince my dad to understand my motives but all he seems to care about is me getting a better paying job, which may be something from his own insecurities. If I can't make him understand, what other steps can I take until i am making money on youtube? He says he's supportive of me but I have perceived that because my passion doesn't make money, he doesn't have complete faith in it.

    Relatable, but because I don't really care about a particular situation much anymore at work, I haven't bothered to say anything--though I probably should to "clear the air" and ease some people's conscious since nobody else has mentioned anything else about it. Some things you become immune to because they happened so many times that it seems like a waste of energy to even talk about them, especially if they don't really matter. Plus, as a truth teller, I'd probably be put into a negative light by some anyway.

    🤔Wait, am I the only INFJ who isn't afraid of rejection thus has no problem expressing himself?
    My 1st reality break / traumatic experience taught me that *life=suffering* and if I hadn't accepted this fundamental truth I wouldn't be alive right now.
    I realised then that every individual only has 1 free choice, which is the choice between life or death.
    😶Since death didn't scare me I chose life and because I understood that a parent's worst nightmare is to outlive your child.
    😎The passing of my father forced me to deal with my 1st reality break and surviving this experience made my concious rebirth possible.
    I have never asked to be born, but now have accepted the gift of life and the burden that comes with it, so I took care of my mother.
    And when I heard that my mother had cancer and was about to die the temptation to just die & give up returned.
    Dying is so easy and it was living that scares me, but I also realised that I was already grieving because I knew my mother was about to die in the near future, because beside the cancer caused by the medicine she had to take because she had a donor-kidney she also had Covid. She probably caught it because she still had to go to the hospital for a kidney dialysis during the whole Covid mess.
    So I reached out to the professionals and got the help I needed and survived my 2nd reality break.
    💪From that moment on I realised that it was true, that *that which doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.*

Seeing that pattern, I decided to close off all new sort of friendly relations with women. Wife died 2 months ago. Now I'm safe from mentally unwell women.

    I think it’s just maybe me but lately I’m doing a lot more of the rejection, but I guess I’ve already been ‘rejected ‘ (nit treated tag way I want to be) long time ago. These days I don’t care much and don’t even notice I’ve been rejected maybe because I know when to regret first! I’ve just learned to discern not to let people linger in my life too long who would need to be rejected soon!

    Wow. Hi, Wenzes. I've just stumbled upon your channel and love it! ❤❤
    I comented in one of your videos that Scorpio characteristics are so similar to the INFJ's. They match in so many ways -- confidence, independence, door slam, humour, putting others before self, all-seeing-observing-piercing gaze, etc etc...
    Being a Scorp, I'm aware of Scorp behaviours/characteristics, but until I did the MBTI test and started reading about INFJs, it would seem more or less that Scorpio = INFJ! ...OMG... 😅😅
    (You may/may not be an expert in astrology, but) What's your opinion on that?
    Is it a double whammy, or a double blessing?? 😝☺
    I'm gonna hv fun sorting myself out... Thank you for these videos! 😁😁
