Finally someone who doesn't say ENTJ are heartless and emotionless. It's just differently approached. ❤️ /ENTJ woman
I am glad to see it too. My dad is an ENTJ and I love him to bits. Even when we get on each other’s nerves. -INFP
instaBlaster.
@@nerysghemor5781 I'm an INFP with an ENTJ dad too! We get on each other's nerves a lot and half of the time we really struggle to work well, since he has some trouble respecting my time and space and I have trouble doing everything on time, but in the end what can I say, I love my dad, he's always there to help me as thoroughly and ruthlessly as few people could, he's almost a force of nature hahah. That's one of the things I like the most about him, whenever I need help he'll help me in detail through it all and keep pushing me until I make it. My ISFP mom is just not like that at all, lol, even being emotionally closer to me most of the time. I can understand it though.
@@juliabookfan4700 Must be nice to have your mom on a more similar wavelength!! My mom is an ESTJ. Again I love her but again we also know how to push each other’s buttons. 🤣
I am ENTJ-A female and PhD trained scientist and a successful artist. People constantly ask me how I have time to do all that I accomplish and my response is time moves slower if you are efficient.
I love this comment, probably the most ENTJ comment I've read in a while. If you haven't already it would be great for you to check out the LoveWho Discord server (the link is in the description of most videos), we have lots of creative people on there that regularly post their art too, I think you might enjoy it a lot. Feel free to message me on there if you do join ~ Nathan
From what I've learned in my relativity course, the proper time experienced by moving observers is indeed less than the time experienced by stationary observers.
Some tips for extra efficiency?
@@SannaJankarin Be accountable for the deadlines and goals you make for yourself. For example, I told myself last night I would finish 8 paintings, so I turned off all distractions, cranked up the music, and found my flow. Rather than being my biggest critic, I'm my biggest cheerleader. I tell myself all the time, I got this 😉
Time moving slower with efficiency is a thought I’ve never mustered on my own - it’s so accurate!
INTJ here - ENTJs are absolutely awesome to work with, really appreciate the push they give and commitment they show to a cause.
Agree. You know that a project will be successful when there is an ENTJ leading the group and an INTJ doing the strategic plan.
ENTJ here - INTJs are really great to work with, it's inspiring to see how they go for what they want in life, playing the long game.
I often study study with an INTJ friend for 5+ hours at a time. I think INTJs tend to have a really impressive, calm endurance in their fields of interest.
I'm an INTJ, and in university I studied and sometimes wrote reports with an ENTJ. The experience can be summarized as comfortable and effective.
Entj female here - i sometimes tell my friends I’m a combination of paradoxes held together by tension, forever moving forward. We’re hard to understand, great video
Finally. Seeing exclusively ruthless CEO descriptions is for sure frustrating to many ENTJ's. This supplement to your earlier ENTJ videos make me believe you are one of few who actually understand what ENTJ means. Another good one Nate.
Good. I was waiting for this one. More ENTJ videos. I just find introverted types all over the internet. Give me my type.
Yes, give us our type!
Yes, ugh, I hate the focus on introverts in MBTI communities
GOD yes! Tell me about me
Exactly that shit is weak asf
type checks out
I'm an ENTJ artist so this made my day! Most people are really surprised when they learn my type (they usually assume I'm either an ISFP or an INFJ...which cracks me up). Also, thank you for acknowledging how selfless ENTJ's can really be and often are! I know we can often come off as assholes but I've seen many ENTJs often be the only one to befriend the "weird kid" or defend people weaker than them. I even saw an ENTJ remain the only real friend to a kid who was dying of cancer because they were the only one not disgusted by the disfiguration caused by some of the treatments. If an ENTJ really cares about someone, they will walk through hell for them and never demand a thank you. I think we often pretend we aren't the type who would do that but I'm suspicious that's just because the stereotypical "savior" types are usually annoying or attention seeking so we'd rather surprise people (that and emotions are often seen as "inefficient" to us so we pretend we don't have them...when we often have way too many).
This comment is beautiful. I (an ENTJ) was bullied and excluded for a lot of my childhood - likely because I was deemed a "bossyboots" or because people just didn't relate to me. When I saw similar things (bullying/exclusion) happening to other kids, I'd usually defend them and try to befriend them. Unfortunately, those I tried to defend/befriend were usually FP types, who were once again intimidated by my rational and and bold demeanor. So I was pretty much friendless for a great deal of my childhood. I was the kid at the front of the class with my hand up for every question, only to be told to "calm down" and "give others a chance to answer". Now I understand it was to encourage the other kids to not be lazy, but at the same time, part of me wants to say "that's _their_ responsibility". Let me show them how to succeed!
I'm usually the first in my family to cry at movies, whether happy or sad. Anything that really touches me emotionally is not a "waste of time" - quite the opposite. Just because I don't "feel" first doesn't mean I don't feel at all. I feel emotions incredibly deeply - possibly deeper than the average person, it's just that I have to know that all logical resources have been exhausted before I can truly feel "hopeless" or anything like that. That's why if a movie or TV show doesn't have a compelling or logical plot, or if said plot is full of holes, I find it impossible to become emotionally invested in said movie/show or its characters.
This ended up being far more tangential than initially intended. Oh well.
Yes, though I was bullied, I could take it, and would stand up for weaker kids. Not only was I a weird kid, but I sat with the losers/weird/retarded kids at lunch because no one else would. When I discovered how much personal power I had (around my senior year of high school), I loved it because I could use it to help even more people. I'm still doing it...as a high school science teacher!
I’m an ENTJ and I don’t see emotions as “inefficient”. In fact, I think it’s necessary. I used to bottle up my emotions a lot and not be emotionally vulnerable due to fear of letting my guard down which I wasn’t encouraged to do throughout my childhood. Now I realize how important expressing your emotions are. Yeah ofc I don’t go overboard. I still keep my cool and focus while I’m at work but I have found that with personal relationships and friendships, being able to express myself emotionally helps me connect better with others and its just as important as being efficient! Maybe I’m one of the ESFP-esque ENTJs that he was talking about lol but I believe being able to regulate your emotions and express them is important for all the types.
Emotions are logical. They have a reason why they come about. There's always a reason we feel one way or another.
Thank you for your comment as an ENTJ-T 5w4 with existential issues I almost constantly deal with this gave me hope God bless you
My sister is an ENTJ and she can definitely have moments when she gets emotional over the things she values in life. Although rarely anything but logical, she'll cry over a dead animal on the side of the road, then (verbally) slap me in the face for disagreeing with her on something...haha.
They sure are masters of the verbal slap XD
She seems like a high Fi user. Or she could just have well developed Fi.
@Mark Rodriguez You wish you were smart
Yess
I'm a female ENTJ and get emotional over animals 😅 I'm pretty misanthropic however, but if you are someone I love, I'd kill for you.
Thank you for highlighting the good parts of the ENTJ personality instead of just "Dom Te go brr". Most NTJ content on the internet is about INTJs, so it's nice to see someone who doesn't forget us!
Probably everyone just thinks you guys are too busy doing Commerce / Law double degrees and running a company on the side to bother with MBTI shizz
That's because you're so rare... I still haven't met any ENTJ in rl, but several INTJ...
bro ur name is so cool
@@sylvia470 you probably have, Entj aren’t super common but there easy to spot if you look in the right places, if you would like to meet entj try going to volunteer soup kitchens and they probably donate soy or go to some money or business classes, there probably gonna be the one teaching
@@kcfanforlife8300 I live in Poland and we don't really have 'volunteer soup kitchens' like the one you can see in the movies. Well, maybe we do have such charity, but not opened for volunteers. I met a guy 2 weeks ago who I thought was an ENTJ. He talks about money a lot, has this charisma about him, but I finally analysed him as an ESTP. :) So still no ENTJ in sight, though I rarely leave the house, so that might be the reason xD INTP
I'm an ENTJ and my Te was heavily criticized by my family up until my mid-20s. That and being female, definitely made me feel like a bad person for many years. I figured out how to better get along with them and that was to respect their Fe needs in small doses. Their Si and Ni perception of me took time to change, but it happened based on on our limited interactions. I believe in having a support system, so I had to figure out how to meet the Fe and Fi needs. Because of all of this bs, an ENTJ might not seem like an ENTJ. I do what I must to get the results I want. My Fi kicks my butt a lot though, so I have a conscience for sure.
Same :-)
This is 100% my experience as an ENTJ! Also, I'm curious if you think your experiences with learning to adapt yourself (meeting the Fe and Fi needs) to get ahead/get along with people has helped you develop your Fi significantly? Sometimes, I wonder if following my idea of the social formula to achieve results might actually be molding me into a more balanced person with more developed Fi.
Not being entj for a while to get the results is the most entj thing to do I would say.
I'm an artist ENTJ (who tests very close to being an ENFJ), and I believe that a good bit of my personality, worldview, and traits were forged by having to support members of my immediate family afflicted with mental illness. Struggling in that environment nearly every day, for years and years, pushed me in a very specific direction. When one's livelihood depends on people who act illogically, one forms their own path to logic in order to maintain their own mental health. That takes creativity. I appreciate this video for acknowledging the fullness of an ENTJ path to well-being.
Hello, autistic ENTJ here. I struggle a lot with executive dysfunction (basically, I really want/need to do this thing, why on Earth am I not doing it already) and suspect myself to have ADHD as well. I’m certainly not the stereotypical ENTJ.
I have what I refer to as cyclic interests. I have a set amount of things I am interested in, and I’ll obsess over them one by one until I work my way back around. I benefit from have a couple of goals at once, and I move from one from to the other.
Right now I’m focussing a lot on what I want to do in life. I’ll need to decide my GCSEs next year, and so am reverse engineering my way back from jobs I’d be interested in doing. I also plan to start working on poetry in order to fill some books in order to make some money on the side in the future.
The methods I have described above help me be more efficient while not forcing myself to work against my neurodivergencies as much to give me burnout. I hope this helps some people get a picture of what a neurodiverse ENTJ can look like. (Obviously not every neurodiverse ENTJ will be the same.)
As a female ENTJ that was diagnosed having ADHD and I also suffer from fibromyalgia...I don't always 100% fit my types stereotype as well. There are a few characteristics however that are undeniably ENTJ lol
Where are my fellows ENTJs artists? :D

entj here- yea we are definitely a very misunderstood type- i don’t like to admit it but we do get pretty emotional about some things- for example: i play a high school sport and as graduation is nearing i am starting to realize that this will soon be over and it breaks my heart- entjs are very passionate people- if we love something you better bet we are going to pursue it- i honestly think that our passion (what people say we don’t have because we are seen as heartless individuals) is what creates in us that strong drive in which our whole personality is centered around
a lot of people stereotype entjs as ruthless commanders, but what they don't understand is that sometimes the most efficient way to do things is not by yelling and dictating, but by understanding others and being compassionate. entjs are human too and sometimes we can strategize emotions
edit: also where we focus our energy differs too. we won't be ruthless ceos if our goal is to make friends and have a good time. that being said we will try to find the most efficient way to make friends and have a good time.
I'm definitely not a workaholic Entj and I spend alot of time thinking about how I'm going to give others an experience is the best way of putting it. All throughout my teens I did this, I was hosting parties, planning holidays with my mates, Thinking about where and when I can take a date.... ect. I get the most joy from providing opportunities for others and collaboration with them, it's great making a connection with someone and your able to produce and create anything. Also a trait that I think is most underappreciated about Entjs is the sheer open mindedness we have! I believe that it overlooked due to the stereo type of Entjs being stubborn and arrogant.
That's interesting. As an INTP I'm supposed to be compatible with ENTJs, but their reputation as domineering has always scared me off. I would rather be alone than have someone always expecting/demanding a lot of things from me.
Also, my free time is worth far more to me than money. So I've always assumed I'd be a disappointment to an ENTJ because most of what I produce, as my hobby, isn't worth much money. I write stories, with a psychological bent. I did love collaborating with my graduating class while finishing my software developement degree, though. Awesomely synergistic. I was going to join a local software development club to network and learn/collab on some project, but then Covid came along and nobody was hosting any clubs.
I'm glad you love giving others good experiences. I would have though you'd feel as if others are just using you to get those good experiences, but from the way you talk, you don't see it that way. I'm happy for you.
@@DreamQuillRose That reputation comes from Te which is a very masculine function and can come across as pushy but most of the time it manifests itself in reality as asking stupid questions hahah.
I think the money thing is just a stereotype again...it's a very flawed concept to, well the way we use it. How I choose to live my life is more important to me. Entjs love knowledge, would honestly say it's a turn on for us 🤣. When someone is truthful and understanding, you will eventually come across entj cause its what they need. If you enjoy what you are doing that is honestly great! Share that passion with others and you will spark all sorts cool conversations.
Honestly I can relate with the covid thing atm I've become very introverted like an isfp, just been focusing on my graphics work and self improvement but it has been isolating as fuck. Hope your doing well though ?
I'm miss doing all that nowadays tbh with what's going on as it's where I was able to create the most fun! I did feel used sometimes and their will always be things like that but I've had more problems with lending things then actually giving experiences.
@@alexsouthern5562 I'm doing well. My job didn't change at all when Covid came along. My life didn't really change, other than to illustrate that the oppportunities to socialize that I've always chosen not to take advantage of disappeared. So I regret not doing so. Hopefully when life gets back to normal that will give me the motivation to get out there. Otherwise, it was something of a relief to have the pressure to socialize lifted for a while. ;)
Fun. I like the idea of 'fun'. When I was a kid, I love playing 'let's pretend' with neighborhood kids, using nothing more than my imagination, but that all went away when my friends grew up and stopped wanting to play. Now I write stories to continue to use my imagination, but I often wonder if there are any adults out there who still like to play?
It's really not common. I had a pair of classmates in college who both said, "I couldn't do that," when I told them about an assignment from an English teacher where she gave us a piece of paper with some random line art shapes on it and said, "Create a story from this." One shape looked like a bird's beak, so I made it the nose of an alien creature, and came up with a backstory and everything. I was surprised and saddened that my classmates felt that they couldn't do the same.
@@DreamQuillRosegood 👌 I find that funny how nothing has changed for you but instead It's mostly been a positive hahah it's pretty cartoon like. Yeh just push out your comfort zone I guess and talk to people....you will gain alot and even if you "mess up" its just progress...learn as you go.
Yeh Im very similar honestly me and my friend who's an intp used to do the exact same and still do now tbh but we would make up stories just to laugh at them but it would always be about people we knew like our uni teachers or some CZcamsr that we would find funny. I think that's great though keep doing what your doing cause you clearly have a passion for it and a creative mind. You really you can get anywhere with those things.
Honestly it's mad you bring up a situation like what you mentioned cause I often find myself in the exact same shoes. When your good at something and surrounded by negative people most of the time they are just gunna bring you down and stop you from being you but guess what? it's all out of fear anyways! Yeh they might of not had the natural talent but there's ways around it and techniques you can implement for creativity.
@@alexsouthern5562 Haha, well, being as how not socializing is a very INTP thing, you're right - it IS almost cartoonlike in that the ENTIRE world had to change their lifestyles to match mine. For once, I fit in, and it's everybody else who's a duck out of water. Ironic, no? :)
I love to write and share my stories online and I get feedback from people who tell me they find my work comforting, especially right now. So I get to have fun AND help people, which is so rewarding.
An an entj who’s an artist, and is taking a new approach to get my work accomplished, thanks for recognizing this.
I usually hate seeing self promotion comments, but my new video “Theft, Mao, and the Danchi” might be a good character study of an artist entj.
When people ask me why I am so driven by money, I always tell them: it is not the money that I want, but money can buy me a vehicle towards my bigger goal. To make this world a better place or move humanity forward. I am planning to help my city grow and transform it into a modern city. I am from Greece btw. II would like to add that it is definitely hard to be a ENTJ woman.
Great video!
P. S. I work with a lot of intj's and it is amazing!
As an ENTJ who has a lot of MBTI beginners (who are only familiar with stereotypes) in shock because of my extreme artistic tendencies (I can seem like an ESTP showman in certain situations and am also the one everyone seeks for design and aesthetics from fashion to making a presentation, bookmark, logo, etc.) as well as my focus on creativity (from writing and poetry and music and obsession with learning everything and debating and connecting it all-which has people mistyping me as ENTP-to making unlikely connections and finding solutions in chaos), I found this video very accurate.
What those people don't seem to realise is that I only do any of that if it serves a purpose-be it making money, gaining experience to later make money, or honing a talent that would be useful for my ultimate vision and goal of making a change in the world (or should I say, the certain changes that I've already envisioned and planned) and, of course, money. 😂 It just so happens that I *always* find a reason to do things and incorporate my interests and side projects in my final goal.
Anyways, absolutely perfect video, and I don't say that often. I just love your videos on defying stereotypes and been waiting for this one for a while-needless to say, it was the best one yet (not because I'm an ENTJ, whatever do you mean, I just mean since this is one of the most stereotyped types). I’m inclined to write down tens of quotes from it, but since I'm preparing for an international conference I’ll just be content with memorising it.
Thank you, Nathan and Luann.
As an ENTJ-A I don't relax or enjoy my time until the job is done. But the job is never truly done due to my nature of seeking the next goal. I also am opinionated and alienated by most personality types however when they realise I only mean we'll, my time then is highly sought after. I enjoy sensory pleasures but only because I don't seek abstract emotions much rather highs to balance the boring.
Yeah, I definitely fall into this category of ENTJ. My creativity is very strategic and individualistic. I usually have a purpose when doing a painting or design. It will usually have more than one meaning, but it has to be meaningful, or I lose interest. In my younger years, I would draw and never finish anything. I could amaze people with my talents, but it wasn't until I learned that every picture could tell a story and every object in the picture had its own story, that I started loving art again. I could, in fact, give people a deep emotional experience rather than being one. I would rather inspire people with something new, not hotel art, as beautiful as it is. I find it pointless. As an ENTJ, I am pretty laid back and easy, but I am always busy getting things done... And that is fun. 😅.
I am so glad to see this. My dad is an ENTJ and he knows when to chill. In fact to everyone’s shock he adjusted wonderfully to retirement. Woke up early the next day in time for work, looked at the clock, and went, “Nope.” And that was that.
That makes me happy! Good for him!
One of my best friends growing up was an ENTJ. She had this strange need to seem successful to everyone around her. She had this wall up that made her seem inauthentic. She likes to argue, but seems to actually take things personally (although she tries to hide it). She had an opinion about everything and I mean everything. I never truly understood her, but accepted her for who she is. She's a hard worker for sure.
Haha quite describes an ENTJ as a kid or a growing kid since I was or maybe am the same as that.
Yes, I feel so good that people know ENTJs like us exist
I’m an ENTJ who procrastinates , but gets the job done
Likes to live a laid back life , but wants achieve a high milestone which is not exactly “laid back”
I sometimes just wanna work as a coffee shop owner or a professor in a college, but the main goal is to be a multimillionaire and entrepreneur
exactly. the Te-Fi tug is hilarious.
Makes so much sense for the two ENTJ's I know. One being my mum, who has always aspired to be an artist (painter), and now that she's older, does a lot of humanitarian and altruistic work to better her community. The other I definitely thought was mistyped as an ESFP or ESTP because he's so adventure-seeking, but first and foremost very goal orientated and a high achiever.
The common denominator I've noticed in both is the constant pursuit of their inferior Fi, both want to be kind, caring and empathetic individuals even though they're not always the best at it haha!
I really admire ENTJs for being productive and systematic as well as creative! As an INTP, I wish I had as much productivity as them 😅
Right? They're like our natural opposite xD The amount of work I don't get done would put an ENTJ into a grave :D
@@sylvia470 combined, it makes a great power couple they say! combining the INTPs vast and logical knowledge, with the drive and motivation of the ENTJ to get things done, is what I understand.
ENTJ 5w6 Physics major and artist, i love that you are bringing light to this side of us. Many thanks
ENTJ-A here. I would not consider myself a workaholic, for me to work as efficiently and productively as possible, I have to see the benefits that the work brings to the table and whether or not I actually enjoy that work to be motivated to do it. However, once I am motivated to do it I will be the most productive person on that task. I view work only as a necessary means to achieve my goals in life and afford things that I want, and once I get those things I want to help others find a way to live that way as well. I will work hard for promotions and leadership positions if that brings value, if not then the extra work is simply not worth it and I will not waste my time. Not eventually being able to do everything I want to do in life is unacceptable, and I will stay driven to achieve my goals. I have 5, 10, and 20 year plans and they are constantly changing. I am brutally honest, and often accidentally offend people, and I don’t mean to hurt them, but the truth hurts and I feel that I am doing a greater service to people by giving them the best possible answer or opinion and pissing them off than telling them what they want to hear. I’ve ruined friendships that way but oh well. I try to stay as authentic as possible because I believe that is the most valuable type of friendship and relationship to have with others. People love me or hate me, there’s no in between and if they’re wishy washy then they’re not really authentic and I’m not going to trust that person or consider them a valuable person in my life.
My youngest brother is an ENTJ. And he does have a certain ruthless streak, but it's focused on making sure the people around him are ok, intact, and not going to accidentally burn the house down when they're drunk and want to make pizza.
I've always found him to be very creative, always building something. He built a desk for his apartment, a 3D printer to build models with, and Christmas gifts.
I do see the product focused aspects here. He plays a lot of DnD, and his characters are always focused around a concept or some thing like that, that he takes to the logical extreme. Like, what if a Kobalt was Don Quiote? Or how would an atheist rationalist function in a world with active gods? What chaotic evil druid actually be like?
He's also that sort of ruthless with himself. And I do see him starting to find that thing he wants to do with himself, and I suspect he will ruffle a lot of feathers along the way too.
I am a male ENTJ mid-40's. Worked up ass off as a kid and was promoted through the company/industry I worked in and did well. In order to maintain this, I enjoyed playing classical piano (some videos on my channel actually), I write poetry and am capable of very deep connection and sensitivity. I have always enjoyed my rich imagination and it's nice to recognize ENTJ's aren't completely mindless work machines.
Nobody, literally nobody:
ENTJs: I didn't work my ass off day and night just to ge nagged by putting too much butter on my wagyu steak.
while i am a butter loving ENTJ, if it was proper wagyu steak, you wouldnt need butter.
F in the chat for deaf ENTJ's 😔
😭 *INTJ* 🤜 🤛 *ENTJ*
Entj female 31 years old. Took myers briggs at age 12 and it still never changes. Been using knowledge of my weaknesses to work more in areas I struggle with (feelings and addictions). It is still hard and I haven't managed to change my preferences, but I have been developing my weaker sides. Under stress, I am 100% my shadow (which I think is Eminem 😅). I'm married to an INTJ. I yell a lot and lose patience, but we get each other. Obviously losing my temper is embarassing- been working on that. It stems from different priorities. What I want done I want done now and I don't see that changing. But I found purpose in a career I love and it is transforming me. Also, most of my friends are ENFs - they help me a lot. We don't share the same responsibilities toward one another, and so I can receive feedback without immediate consequence - just gathering multiple perspectives. I get schooled a lot by my feeling friends, but I appreciate it greatly. I have to remind myself to be more other directed every day. What sucks is that I feel like a very sensitive and emotional person under stress, and I am detached in my expression of it. Music helps! Someone else said it for me in a song - so I just play a relevant song and cry and then toughen up. At my most mature moments, I will be vulnerable. But if I feel like I am put on the defensive, I retreat to logic even if the other party is working on a feeling level.
Try yelling at an intj as an entj. It never phases mine! That makes me feel unheard but he is smart to tune out things I say but don't mean. We have a system where I literally have to say his name aloud if I want him to respond (I do lots of talking aloud and he has to separate it). My typical mindset is gtf out of my way unless you've got a better plan and if so you'd better say it quick.
The other day, an enfj friend texted me (entj) something emotional, and I didn't respond immediately. He said "I guess you don't feel the same way I do. It's ok lol" Boy did that start an argument. I thought 1- don't tell me how I feel 2- this feels manipulative, how does he think I'll respond or what does he hope I'll respond and 3- I didn't even get to say how I felt. I was robbed of the choice to agree or disagree. He said he didn't think he did anything wrong because he said "lol" after "I guess you don't feel the same way." By this point I'd lost my patience and started texting hateful things followed by lol. We both let go of it by morning. The sad part/frustration was that I did feel the same and was planning to respond. Ahhhhhh. Gotta love communication hahaha
Finally someone could explain us 😌

"You must verify by phone before you can use this server"
Stuff that. I won't let discord know my phone number!
However you could set up an online phone number. I used to use a free service back when I didn’t have a phone.
Many people would consider this to be too much work, but it seems to be an alternative worth looking into if it fits your privacy values.
Saaaaame
what i didnt know this was an entj thing
I tend do things based on values and interests. And when I do, I try reaching it's full potential-which is maximum growth, maximum exposure. (horizontal expansion [finding every aspect that can be adjusted], vertical growth for every aspect [maximizing each aspect], this is called "scaling", all while also being extremely efficient to reduce the time it takes to achieve said "full potential") I aim to seek somethings full potential versus doing things for money. Money is just a byproduct from growing these "things" at juggernaut levels. And while at it, as much as I can have empathy for people, my patience and sympathy is extremely low. No one is safe being in my way, respectfully. I am very adaptable, very "open", very caring, and emotional with key people, but very low tolerance for BS. A lot of people tend to take advantage of emotions and try manipulating people's decision-making to their favor.
ENTJ here, but I was tested as an ENTP. My story is very complex, but after coming to a crossroads, I have come to realize that external factors can suppress a natural personality, and for long periods of time. I went through multiple traumatic episodes as a kid, that I never got over until recently. Thankfully for me, my outlet was development and work, under the want for escape and freedom from my childhood. At the end of the day, I am pretty down the center but lean slightly E, T, and J. N is the only one I dominate, but even then, I grew up around a family of ESTJ's. I had practicality and details shoved down my throat, until I knew better. But because of the life I have had, I can help others in more ways than one. The biggest difference between myself and the ENTP's I have meet, are how we focus our energy... aka, ENTP's ADHD is like watching a dog constantly chase squirrels. Mine is like trying to make plans to deal with the squirrel, so I can get things done, because I like squirrels too.
Entp with ADHD here. I procrastinate by making plans for fun. Plans I never execute. Then I go back to doing whatever causes me the most pleasure at the moment.
I'm currently at my worst as an ENTJ (overworking, insensitivity, not connecting with my values) and I'm trying my best to understand my feelings and remind myself of who I really am and what I want to be. This video was very helpful to cheer me up and relax. Thank you
Hah ha ha. True indeed, if you scratch an ENTJ on its surface, then you'd find that behind their crazy schedule, work, business and investment plans there is this little girl, and this little girl wants to be remembered for "making these beautiful staaaainglasses woah wow wa meeeme mee". And yes, Se, even when preferred over Ni, is all about indulgence and childish joys of this real life rather than using it for anything useful like ISTP/ ESTP/ ESFP do.
I’m definitely an ENTJ, but every test I take I’m like 55/45 extrovert/introvert.
Learning about myself at 21 is so amazing
I always enjoy your analogies. In fact, the video about Elon Musk was great. Finally!!! Finally someone who thinks like me of him being an ENTJ, not an INTJ. When I saw your video I was readily able to notice 10000% that he was an ENTJ for sure. As my title shows, I am an ENTJ-A, a successful businessman with multi-national group of companies in USA, Korea and China, car-racer, car-collector, polyglot (speak 3 languages fluently (Korean, English and Portuguese), speak 2 languages OK (Spanish and French) and know 2 more languages lightly (Japanese and Chinese) - total seven), Play the piano, flute and violin; Mastered optometry (One day I had to wear glasses and I was not satisfied (actually REALLY frustrated) with doctors who prescribed my glasses so I had to learn myself (bought myself a "trial lens set", too) so I could be satisfied with my glasses' prescription) so I prescribed my own glasses ever since middle school; am an amateur arm-wrestler (I was always number one in whole school); I practiced Kungfu and Taewondo when young; I learned abacus so I know how to add up to three digit numbers without any tools --> It proves that ENTJs always take anything to the next level. We hardly get satisfied. We always strive to do the best and be the best in anything we do as long as the circumstances allow.
I scored highest IQ (since elementary school) in schools all the time so I took the IQ test on a regular basis during my school years and my highest score was 187, although I don't believe that was a credible source of test so I don't believe that's correct but it's more like 160 because that's pretty much where I get most of my scores (several scores between 147 to 178 averaging at around 160). In fact, IQ is nothing else but "logic". ENTJs are absolute "Logic" people so I think this nothing surprising. There are many people that think INTPs and INTJs have higher IQs than any other types but that's because people don't really know the true ENTJs. True ENTJs all have high IQ. It's very natural for that to be because ENTJs don't stop analyzing, studying, thinking... because they are SUPER curious about everything they see and encounter. (The reason I say "true ENTJs" is because people say there are about 2~3% of ENTJs in the World but I completely disagree with that. There are TONS of people who come out as ENTJs when they are not and it's simply because our "Earth" that we live in is geared towards becoming an ENTJ. Think about it. Since you are born and since you start going to school, what do you learn? You learn to speak up. They don't teach you to be quiet. They teach you to speak out and communicate. That's an "E" character. Then what do they teach? They teach kids to have "DREAMS" and "visions". They teach you to imagine and think about future. They don't ever teach you to be stuck at your present. That's "N"! They teach you to be logical, efficient, reasonable and so forth. They are teaching you to be a "T", not an "F". Then finally what do we do in this World? Everything evolves around schedule. Schools are run strictly by schedule. Companies are run strictly on schedule. Buses and subways run on schedule - Otherwise will become chaotic!!! So it's a "J"!!! You see? The whole World is geared towards being an ENTJ. No wonder ENTJs are the highest income generators and they are the most effective leader, entrepreneur and conqueror. Because of these facts people are "educated" to become like an ENTJ even without them noticing it. That's why there are a lot of people who are NOT an ENTJ come out as an ENTJ. When I see an ENTJ I can spot them from miles away. I can see them, I can feel them, and I can even smell them. That's how eccentric ENTJs are. I can tell you that ENTJs are highly capable animals, indeed. After seeing your video I posted my own video myself about Elon Musk so hope you watch it, too, and see if you agree or not. ;-) MBTI is a non-defiable and non-deniable science!
Hello I love your ENTJ videos they are so on point.
For me as ENTJ I want to say that I don't see money as something the most valuable. I see value in personal growth of people (more like coaching) and making positive change in the world. I want to influence others in being better, this is what excites me. Money doesn't. I think it all goes to our inner values and for many people who don't get ENTJs they think that they work for money. No, we "work" (whatever that working is at the moment) for our Ni visions that originate from our values.
Also I used to be very scary to people but I learned to pretend I'm Fe user by learning carefully what they do lol. Tips for other ENTJ with zero Fe intuition, who want to appear less scary:
speak slower. Try relaxing muscles on your face when around people. Don't move your body so much, or move it but slower (🤣). Looks like you behave when you are veery tired 🤣
When tempted to apply Te when it's not wanted - focus on your Se. (Reacting to surroundings). When tempted to used Te when stressed- focus on Fi and "shut down" yourself little bit.
Lol funny things but they worked, I'm much less intimidating.
Of course I'm all the way in my Te powers when I'm alone or.. just don't care.🤣
God bless 🙌
I'm an ENTJ and my real estate agent is and ENTJ and broker is ENTJ....we work very well together and are sharks when it comes to competition yet we're all grounded and yes you are right on "knowing who they are..they struggle a lot" Systematic but driving through obstacles. Well said. I used to be a music editor and was very detailed with the tracks I worked on and excelled in an underground music environment. Hats off again.
I am an ENTJ-A male I am 22 years old and I have an almost 3 year old daughter and a wife who is my highschool sweetheart I met when I was 17. Very early in our relationship we had a conversation and it was discussed that there was really no point to this if we aren't trying to end up in the same spot. She declared a desire to have children (My wife is an INFJ). My response was that I would need time to achieve financial stability and feel fulfilled in terms of my career before having a child but if she would wait we could do it. A few years into our relationship we found out about the pregnancy and I had to decide how I was going to live my life. There was a moment where it was all in or all out, I was going to continue to support and commit to the person I love and make the sacrifice we discussed earlier than I intended and have children or to back out. And being an extremely loyal person that left me with really only 1 option, and naturally entj's are not loving, affectionate, family people. But we are able to change or work on anything we think or know is important, and if that means spending less time at work to make the family happy and compromising in ways that are even stereotypically anti entj we are very capeable of destroying our greatest weaknesses and making those changes and sacrifices if we can truly see why it has to happen and how it would negatively and positively affect those around us and the future.
ENTJ here, wife is ISFJ, loyalty just happens naturally in this relationship, since its based a lot on the J, meaning we've decided this relationship is worthwhile. 20 years and growing in love. quite awesome. might have intense disagreements, but on the ones we do agree, we agree from entirely different angles. but when we agree, we can make a plan, and those plans happen. :)
I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. MY TIME HAS COME!!
Ok, now do ESTJs. It'll be interesting.
I am hearing the "having a powerful Ne but preferring Ni" thing for the first time and this is so on point! Every time I took a test on cognitive functions, I would get very close results for Ne and Ni and I could never just pick one or the other, cause I do believe I use both depending on the situation. And the interest and hobbies thing is so on point, I did a lot of different things throughout the years, but I don't even bother picking something up if it's not useful to me in some way or if it has no purpose. I can't even exist in life without having some goal that I am working towards. It would literally drive me crazy. 😅
Nailed it! ENTJ here. First 5 years in my professional life was in fashion as a designer. Then switched to tech/IT and utilized my “artistry” to where I see it functional in my role (marketing). Sensory indulges are also “selfish” and can be extreme. Ex. Personal pursuits, I run for 10-21km while listening to classical music at the same time then my imagination goes wild in my head. All doing 4 things (running, listening to music, burning calories, getting my exercise in) in an OPTIMIZED fashion.
Watching this made me realize that I’ve matured early as an ENTJ. That’s why it seems odd to me that I don’t really like inefficient arguments or conflicts. This also explains the reason why I know my purpose due to a lot introspection and journaling that I did, and why I’m questioning other ENTJs (or people in general) on why they want to achieve their goals but don’t know their main drivers and I assume they are dumb. Thanks for this “defying stereotype” video. It provided me much needed clarity.
I consider myself NTJ but the first letter i always find it fluid in me. I focus on looking always for INTJ content, but this video make a los of sense with me. Im a choir/singing/music workaholic teacher and definitely resonate with the humanitarian, creativity, problem solver that you describe. I’m passing through a divorce and leaved in depression the last 5 years at least, and thought i was introverted. Im just a bit traumatized. I go to my psychologist to work on it, so I can feel like myself again, an extroverted. Thanks for the video. I needed it.
PS: I found about MBTI on last September and separate from husband that same month. This info open my eyes and help me realize where I was and why I don’t wanna be there anymore.
I personally would try to figure out where you personally think your inferior function relays on, Fi or Se. Yes, ENTJ and INTJ have the same functions in a different order which can make it overall more difficult to stay with one. Personally I think that in that is way easier to tell your inferior function than your dominant (specially as I think that for both ENTJs and INTJs Te/Ni or Ni/Te work in most cases, jointly).
It'd be easier for an INTJ to access Fi values than an ENTJ, but at the same time probably less likely to be a big driving force. I agree with the other comment that it might be easier to see which is your inferior function than your dominant.
This is the winning comment in my opinion. Very similar background for me. I also discovered the MBTI around the same time as you (in case you seek peculiar correlations as well), at the age of about 25 years and 3 months. I originally thought I was INTJ up until recently when I toyed with the idea of ENTJ and placed myself in a more structured and typical mindset of one, I realized that it makes a lot more sense. INTJ-A and ENTJ-T i think are so similar that it's difficult to tell them apart when compared to most info available online currently. If an ENTJ-T was suppressed of being their true self for so long because of too many negative factors, then wouldn't they think they are introverted?
@@woody3476 it doesn't help that it's easy for ENTJs to be social introverts. Neither Ni or Te really care about *people* in particular.... As long as you're accomplishing things, Te is happy.
@@dirtywhitellama that's exactly it yeah. I'm finally starting to realize it. I like that you emphasized "people" but how did you do it?
What's interesting is the ENTJs I know (two in their mid-late 20s and another early 40s) all insist they know who they are. One gave a speech about not allowing others to define who you are. With one, I asked him, "Well, how do you know that is truly me?!" and he fell silent and gave me a bear hug later.
INTJs seem to know who they are early on. Recently this opened my eyes as to why they are likely to mature quickly. Since I am slower to know who I am, and also have psychological injuries, I am not as far in my life as an INTJ I speak with from time to time.
People are fascinating.
- INFJ
People are fascinating and so are INFJs. I'm an INTJ myself but my understanding (so far) of INFJs is that they are chameleons. They change their own emotional state to align with their environment or other people. Hence it becomes very difficult to describe or pin down an INFJ's personality traits. But their ability to emotionally align themselves with others means that they are the super hero of compassion.
@@heathergrahame9647 Super hero of compassion. I like it. Despite my logical tendencies to become jaded with people, deep down, I can always find the good in others, love them from a distance if need be, and am always moved by a truly contrite and teachable soul. As much as I annoy myself, I wouldn't trade these things as long as they are balanced with boundaries and truth.
I like what one INTP CZcamsr said. INFJs are like shape-shifters. We are ourselves and everyone else at the same time. We're weird. 🙂
@@jessenceq3250 That's a great description too. Thanks for sharing :)
I am an ENTJ woman. Went to the best schools, got multiple degrees and qualifications, mastered several languages, made enough money to retire in comfort at 40, kept my measurements the same as when I was 18, always used a parasol and gloves make weekly appointments to the dermatologist, always kept up with the latest fashions as a VVIP of Chanel..and got cancer and was forced to retire early. I found out, if I do not have stuff to do, I actually sleep and lounge about all day, curled up with a book. My husbnand said it is me trying to recover from cancer ASAP lol
I'm an ENTJ male and I personally am not a huge workaholic unless I have found my deep sense of purpose. I've always excelled in my life and gained top spots in multiple situations but it never really satisfied me. Until recently I had no morals, no meaning, no concrete vision of the future. I was essentially nihilistic, I was also mistyped as ENTP and it rubbed off on me so wrong for so long. Not saying ENTPs are bad but i personally could not fit my brain into it, I tried to understand it but it never worked. Once I do have a concrete vision for my future and have a purpose I work very hard for such things.
My best friend is an ENTJ who breaks stereotype in most of the ways you list.
My favorite person in the world (and an ENTJ) is probably Eteri Tutberidze. She is a figure skating coach that has raised (and choreographed programs) for the most successful figure skaters in the world, for almost the last decade. I have learned a lot from her about what it takes to succeed. She is a badass and an artist:
@SWws (turn on subtitles)
@
-----
Her skaters:
Evgenia Medvedeva: @
Alina Zagitova: @L-Q8
Anna Shcherbakova: @
Kamila Valieva: @

One of her former skaters said this in an interview about her:
"Interviewer: You said that at that time you sometimes did not have enough money.
Viktor Adoniev: To be honest, yes.
I come from a very poor family, and we often didn’t pay money to Eteri Georgievna. She didn’t even take, she knew our situation. And I wasn’t the only one. She even dressed me.
Interviewer: Paid for costumes?
Viktor Adoniev: No, Eteri Georgievna gave me clothes - very cool, branded. It seems that some of their relatives brought it from abroad. Maybe this was a second-hand, but I was happy to wear it. Then it was hard to get something.
And then they tell me what a creepy coach she is, a despot. Yes, she is quite a hard person at work, but I think that is right. I myself have become the same. If children can’t do something, I force them, even shout. This is absolutely right if you want to achieve a result. If the coach always pats on the back, then what will happen to you?
Eteri is completely different in life. This is a person you can always call. Even when I switched to ice dance, she was with me. Switched me from group to group, looked for partners, cared all the time. She was like an older sister to me."
I am an ENTJ and I'm often seen as an ESTP and ESFP as I'm more engaged in play more than work. It's because for the past 3 years of COVID I couldn't go out that much and I always wanted to go out and be at the best moments. Although at times I could be very assertive when it comes to work and then when I'm too serious and indulge in work I tend to be more focused and I'm not able to 'relax' with the thought of completing the work I'm invested in and for other work that I don't think has any purpose for my goals I often ignore it. When I'm able to play I prefer being with the people I care about and tend to prefer being in a setting where I'm free from distractions and completely indulge fully in play without being told what to do. I really dislike being told what to do because people think I have no common sense, but really I honestly have more important things to do then do simple tasks. I'm often seen as lazy, but I'm really heardworking. It's just there are so many things that impacted on my behaviour and prompted me to act in such a way that I feel unmotivated. When I'm motivated I feel like I'm at my best.
Great description and spot on. Especially the connection between art and business.
Trump, for example, wrote "The Art of the Deal.".... And yet many people don't realize that Trump is, in fact, an ENTJ.
I am an ENTJ
you are pretty much the only youtuber who really understand us
As an ENTJ i feel so much love for the World and its ppl. i just think i have to do sm bc nobody else tries.
I am an ENTJ currently in an apprenticeship chartered accountancy training contract. The stereotype around accountants being overly cold and analytical with no personality has sometimes bothered me, since I have always been aware that I occupy an awkward area between being deeply creative and expressive but also drawn to efficiency, strategy and optimisation. My deep interest in business and finance, not only for its personal benefits relating to freedom, security and choice but also for the integral function played in modern society, has led me to where I am and I'm loving it. But I'm becoming conscious that I should not neglect the side of myself that I always had as a child, that side which is creative merely for the sake of it. For all my big-picture goals and dreams, my ambitions to achieve financial independence and career success for example, I'm now making efforts to reconnect with other elements of my personality such as writing and playing violin, things that I loved learning to master as I grew up. Further, your points towards the beginning of the video about mastering a skillset before using the success as a launchpad to find meaning, ikigai in a way, really resonated. My central goal has been for a while to achieve financial independence such that I might in future find myself in a position to not be reliant on my job or others in order to sustain myself and my family. This would mean that should I decide on a less conventional path, a less profitable area of interest (such as my writing, a small business or humanitarian work) that I would find far more fulfilling could be pursued with much less risk and without sacrificing the security provided by a stable income. I have sometimes wondered if this goal is overly practical or utilitarian -- I see people around me going to university simply because they want to study what they find exciting. While one of my main interests is indeed finance, I have sometimes wondered if I'm overcomplicating things or over-strategising in a way. It's made me wonder who I actually am and what I actually want deep down, as it seems I may be in a way outsourcing that to the future. But I think your explanation of the chess rivals made this make a lot of sense to me, so I must thank you for that. It really is about setting myself up for personal success after I've achieved everything that comes before. I'm just following Maslow's heirarchy of needs in order I suppose lmao.
Creativity part is true for me mostly when it comes to my style and how i portay the designs i make to technicals sewing and patterns . Making my way is more efficient! Things detailed with orginization
Yes! I’m an ENTJ artistic business minded workaholic. You nailed this one!!
This definitely resonated with me. I’m an advertising strategist whose job it is to figure out creative solutions to business problems. This hybridity gets me noticed and I use my platform to further my values by helping disenfranchised people game the corporate system. I’m also what might be described as being more artistically inclined in that I paint, dance ballet, write, play music, etc. (which people don’t expect because I am also ruthlessly logical and competitive in the right circumstances). Frankly, as I’ve gotten older, the contrasts have heightened: I’m a nature-loving hippy that also craves novel, thrilling experiences 🤷🏻♀️
a big thank you for clarifying the creative side and adventurous side of my type from a lazy , Se pleasure seeking , stereotype breaker entj..i am always confused if i am an entj compared to the boss baby archeytpe being presented ..sure i sometimes obsess over work but it doesnt have to be school, since i am a student but more like on video editing or online poster making ...in those hobbies i do spent a lot of hours ..yet i am sometimes greedy or material objects even food and when i give in to these culinary impulses i wonder ..am i an entj or just an estp or esfp but then i feel i am too reliant on my long term plans and goals and external reasons to be an esfp as i have trouble understanding what i beleive in or not ..guess this video has extinguished a lot of doubts for now..
Just came here to say that your thumbnails are incredible as always and whoever does them (you?) is very talented and artistic. Also it helps that there is a very handsome subject to base the thumbnail around. ;)
My ENTJ friend is a very successful artist, but she won’t admit it because she’s set the bar so high for herself.
i love how you say things, of any topic, just right. your vocabulary is so impressive.

I'm a young ENTJ woman and i write books, poems.. maybe because of my hard past experiences and either way i also have business plans in my goal list. Imma help my environment as well. Ik what im capable of and ik that everything is possible.
The fastest way to spot an ENTJ is their razor-sharp deduction of why things work the way they do and if something is going to work or not.
Creativity is in very human. It's just a matter of perspective. The reason we see the Ne types as more creative is simply because of how frequently they are able to randomize things. In a physical environment, the Se creativity shows, Si linking creativity blooms. Creativity is an innate thing for every person.. something that even the 'stubborn' istj or hard headed entj has. Mbti has just a bias of 'ho ho, sensor dumb' 'Ne superior to brr' 'Ni unique go brr' like a bunch of kids. The memes have their place, but no need to form everything around them. Most of them are behavioral anyway rather than actually seeing the 'cognitive' side.
THANK YOU, someone finally gets to understand our brutal soul. Said by ENTJ Female.
The ENTJ community united... love it 😂 ENTJ here
Thank you for addressing some of these differences! Yes 👏🙌 As an ENTJ, I find these to be true for myself.
As an entj, I often find myself trying to figure out a better social/economic future for the most people, among other macro-altruistic objectives. Being a historian facilitates this. Yes, I also play hard, seeking sensory pleasure.
totally agreed, I love to express myself through different arts and I figured that I don’t struggle that much expressing my own emotions either.
I am an ENTJ-A and Ambivert. Thus, though i often totally agree with most of the ENTJ stereotypes, I am someone who works so that I can play more... I put in my best effort with the best time dedication necessary to produce the best work possible just so i can enjoy my play time peacefully. In fact, I graduated undergrad as valedictorian using this strategy. I prefer spending my time watching anime or discussing poetry or learning about space than school work. Thus, if for instance an assignment/ project is given and due in two weeks, i can dedicate the first 3-5 days working ardently on the project, completing it, then pack it up somewhere and move on to other more 'fun' things. I then reopen it a day or two before the deadline to ensure all is sparkling, then turn it in right on time. My life strategy is often to not just meet deadlines or major life targets, but to beat them so i have time to play... I do admit that this personal goal has for better or worse produced rather Machiavellian results as regards great grades at the expense of some fragile relationships with some partners in group projects... Perhaps that sets me a bit apart from the standard ENTJ type? I can't tell _ I love your videos btw.
Same type here exactly. And yes, I apply my spurts of productivity to chew through projects to get done as fast as possible (without sacrificing quality), so I can get back to the fun stuff. I can do 8 hours of work in about 3 or less, so I can spend the other 5 hours on stuff I want to do (which could take the form of play that looks like work - as in trying to beat a game by painstakingly finding the most efficient way to beat it). Its as if my laziness is my motivation to get stuff done, and my personality the means to accomplish it. heh Others who observe my behavior either assume I'm lazy, or brilliant, or both.
I know an ENTJ real estate agent/engineer who is also a wonderful painter. Her animal paintings are graceful and economical. They efficiently capture movement and feeling. She's an impressive person.
ENTJ working in mental healthcare here. If you see me with patients you see my sensitive/empathetic side come out often. However with both patients (if needed) and certainly with co-workers the direct, commanding and critical side comes out as well (Te). If I look around me in my team I am one of the if not THE most driven person in the room and I would like to get into quality improvement/healthcare innovation in the near future. I am always looking to improve both on personal and organisational level.
The fact that I am the most driven, also most intense / intensely focused person in the team, does have drawbacks and I am curious if other ENTJs recognise this. Its like: if I really up the intensity......push the 'pedal to the metal'......I leave a lot of people behind who just cannot keep up. I am having to adjust my tempo (with pushing for change/innovation for example) almost always in order to keep team integrity. Like a sportscar amongst hatchbacks.......trundling along in 2nd gear.
I know ones experience of life will not equals to other's, but as ENTJ, I got often missunderstood by others. It has happened to me until I grew up and get apart from my parents. My dad never supported my artístic vein, I love writting, im a great story teller, I was even used to sell selfmade cómics at elementary school 😅. One time my spanish teacher bought one, and even published it!. I was sooo mad... But, because I was pretty good student in so many areas, science the most, my parents try to forced me to not being so "creative". At the end, I become a Lawyer, and writting is still my passion... And people still get surprise when finding out how creative I can be.
0:49 - I noticed they share the same functions as infj. Funny, as an infj, I had achieved the greatness I was looking for very young. Then, due to high Fe, I sacrificed it for others not knowing what the value was and my future.
I love this series, it's a pretty good breakdown of all the types 😊.
I love Nathan always bring Chess analogies and I am curious of his Chess ELO :)
Could you do ISTJ some time?
Check out JOYCE MENG’s CZcams channel. She holds panels called “Type Talks,” where there are sometimes multiple representations of one type. Very informative and illuminating.
Perfect for promoting understanding of oneself & others, and how there can be some unexpected variations w/i the same personality type.
I am one of those ENTJ types I guess, in the past I wanted to be successful in my relationship so hard that I did anything and everything that was needed to appease the other person, took great care of their needs and feelings and forgot that I had needs as well. And I did it for years.
I am an entj / musician. I know strongly who I am have a strong sense of self and I live by following my good feeling however that does imnvolve so much TE throughout the day that making a schedule doesn't really make sense.
YASS!!! I'VE DONE MY WAITING! AT LEAST A YEAR OF IT! SO happy about this 💕❤️❤️❤️
I'm an ENTJ that likes to enjoy life like an ESFP because living in the moment is the only gurantee we'll ever get.
I think my mom is a ENTJ. She is very success driven, hard working. She is always busy but also like to have fun and go on adventure. She will always achieve what she wants when arguing with people on a business level. Also she is very dominating and everything must be done right now, there is no delay. Because of that she is difficult to deal with often.
How is it that you always have the perfect words for explanation with crystal clarity? You've been on this planet for all of 25 minutes, yes? Yet you are so able to convert complex ideas into inticing digestible morsels readily consumed by rhe masses. I am amazed by this... and not a little envious💚.💚💚
isn’t mr beast an entj? it makes sense
Hmmm. Not really. I think he's an ESTP with a developed Ni because he's definitely a high Ti user-his whole thing is “cracking CZcams’s algorithm,” figuring out how it works and then benefitting from it. Ti wonders “how does it work?” whereas Te asks “does it work?” and ESTPs’ main strength and focus is the former (they can do the latter too when they develop because it's their demonstrative function, but it's not their primary approach).
What he is is an entrepreneur and showman first and planner and visionary second. I also don't see any inferior Fi (developed or not). He doesn't seem to have the insecure Fi which is overcompensating and nice and is cluelessly obsessed with their identity, or the developed Fi which is inspiringly sure of who they are and what they stand for. His Fi seems more PoLR IMO which kind of manifests as that insecure Fi (because his sympathetic Fe is relatively well developed) but it's mostly ignored and not questioned all that much. PoLR functions are not the obsession that inferior ones are and are seen more as pointless.
@@MsMrExe where do you see tert Fe? he seems so emotionally awkward
@@talkshh Yes, he *is* emotionally awkward, but that could be attributed to PoLR Fi as well. I see tertiary Fe in his extreme charm (I don't see any charisma, which ENTJs have loads of) and how he values and seeks environments that are vibrantly emotional. He doesn't exactly add to it (I don't count his bubbly optimism as adding to the emotional environment) but absorbs that vibe and is pretty sympathetic. Not highly sympathetic and harmonising like high Fe users. He is more playful with it, the way tertiary Fe is.
@@talkshh I totally see how he can be an entj. He is awkward but also clever. And especially how it lines up with what "Love who" is saying. He gives to the world with his success. However, I actually agree with Mary that he lives on the Ti/Fe axis. Mr. Beast made it big by giving money to random strangers. I think ENTJs usually try to focus on more practical and achievable goals BEFORE philanthropy. Someone on the Ti/Fe axis would try making their lifes work about giving to others. For example, most FJs (pretty much all) I know go into the healthcare field and the TJ go into finance.
I also want to address the emotional awkwardness. I think emotional awkwardness can be in people that use Fe especially if it is an inferior or tertiary function. I find that ENTPs rarely know what they want out of life until they've matured into their late 20s early 30s. That can come across as awkward because if you ask an ENTP do you want kids? do you want to settle in the burbs? would you rather be single? It kinda makes them glitch out and that can be seen as awkward. I know a lot of Fe users who are uncomfortable with receiving validation and they get really awkward. Awkward can be in both the Fe/Ti axis and the Fi/Te axis but they manifest themselves differently.
I’ve heard so, I’m glad he’s just like me :)
Brilliant 💡. Concise 📜. Eloquent 🎵. In regard to overthinking, do ENTJ's ever succumb to Analysis Paralysis, Decision Fatigue and Procrastination, or is that something that affects other types?
I am one of those sub ENTJ groups because I am not all about works or even more about works. Play and have fun is very important for me.
I WOULD RATHER SOMEONE HATED ME, BUT FOLLOWED ORDERS THAN LIKED ME, AND DID NOT FOLLOW
MY ORDERS.
i think i‘m one of the ESTP-like ENTJs, not because im not always concerned with work, i am constantly pondering which project i should do next but on a day to day basis what i do is workout, seek adrenaline, have a bunch of friends, care about fashion, good foods and drinks etc but when im alone, i feel bothered if i dont advance and i gotta continue on my projects. i also noticed a difference in me and others that, when we learn something, people at some point reach plateau, then they stop. for me this plateau is unbearable and im thinking how can i implement the things i learned and benefit the rest of society with it? ive seen many entjs very concerned about benifitting society. its probably our Ni
This video came to me at the absolute most perfect timing. This has been a major help to me in confirming my type.
My sister in law is a very balanced ENTJ. When she first told me that the personality profile presented her as an ENTJ, I didn’t believe it because of her work in the humanitarian side. I generally don’t enjoy spending time with ENTJ’s but hey... that’s because I am an INTJ. My core group is only about five people.
Thanks for the vids!
As an ENTJ my biggest concern is when my CEO thinks because I know “business” I also must know data science. Trying to explain a 70k+ role I need on my team is so hard.
what a breath of fresh air.. finally a video that doesnt just say ENTJs are leaders blah blah heartless blah blah
