So you've done the 16personalities.com test, maybe you even know the cognitive functions, but still you can't decide whether you're a thinker or an architect, a logician or a mastermind. Let me fail to clarify this for you... in style...

I have confirmed once again that I am an INTP and not an INTJ but I am sure that I will start questioning it once again tomorrow.
Brilliant! Glad this video could help you decide (at least for a little while) ~ Nathan
Don't worry, I did that too a long time ago (for about a year!) and am INTP. INTPs question everything. I did the official MBTI test and got INTP but I kept going over it to make sure I wasn't INTJ.I got told if I really couldn't decide after all this time then I am probably INTP. They were right. An INTJ would decide quickly even if it was wrong.
Hi! I'm an orbit intp
Steam so what
Sounds about right.
@@adamquery7048 precise your thoughts.
As an INTP I plan to plan, and plan my plan - but rarely actually plan...
I'm in this comment and i like it.
And simultaneously believing I've made progress. Stupid brain, thinking about it ≠ actually doing it.
My INTP boyfriend owns a restaurant. He didn't have a business plan. He meant to do one but ended up just sort of winging it. It's doing well.
Well it was before the lockdown
lmaooooo same i relate to this so heavily
I plan. I plan a lot. I come up with highly complex, systematic plans, which I draw out on paper, sometimes with diagrams and all...and then I go do something else that’s interesting and the “plan” ends up going in the clutter pile with all the other clutter papers. Sometimes I stick to the plan for a couple of hours. Maybe even a couple of days if I’m on a role.
"An INTJ will go out dressed in dark, an INTP will go out like they dressed in the dark" Damn why you got to do us like that man 😂😂😂😂 (it's true though)
Unless you're an INTP that has done obsessive research on fashion... like I have...
@@shrub8644 how do you research fashion? I'm curious now.
@@failedbooli6028 I had no sense of style before , and pretty much wore anything. Then at one point I started browsing all sorts of men's fashion subreddits and articles, looking into tips, clothing styles, how different colors work together and so on, and now I'm very confident in my fashion sense.
edit: and of course tested by wearing some of them myself
@@shrub8644 but like those things dont really make sense to me, like this shade of blue goes well with this shade of grey or something I'm just like WHY? Why does it work like that. Not to mention women's fashion is so much more complicated.
@@failedbooli6028 It's called color theory, you can try to look into it.
Yeah, we guys have it a bit easier.
INTJ's are just INTP's that actually get shit done.
🤣🤣 That describes me and my boyfriend so well xD I'm an INTJ and he's INTP. ^^"
But has a black hole instead of heart 💎
Thanks, I found out that I'm an INTP
HOW DARE YOU
but you're right xD
this is me and my brother
I'm a INTP and the things I've built/created in the world are breathtaking! Only they never left my brain.
When you're a kid and you think, "Hey, if this is how electricity is made, they should make an exercise bike that while being pedalled powers a small tv on the handlebars." Then you see it in the next year's Sears catalogue...
I felt this comment on a different level
brahh. this shook my core
real
INTJ trait.
As an outsider ISTP, I realized a pattern:
- INTJs are mostly fine with the idea of their type. (Ni) They accept the result and glorify themselves. (Te & Fi)
- INTPs are always questioning whether their type actually suits them or not. (Ti & Ne) Constant identity crisis with a hint of melancholy. (Si)
Ok this is really interesting ~ Nathan
Thank you, if that's actually the case, then I'm an INTP. (Those who over analyse will see the irony here.)
im in this comment and i dont like it
You’re Ni just did it’s thang !
And that's why I was watching this video, ever questioning, lol. Love it!
People makes me feel like I'm suposed to be a genius when I'm an INTP but really I analyze things in the most useless way possible that seriously won't help me with the work I should do. Like I should work on a project and I'm searching for studies on it but then I notice some completely different study that has nothing to do with the topic of my project and start focusing on that because I'm curious so I end up procrastinating, learning about the new topic but the project I need to do stays untouched...
The story of my life :D
Ican relate . but i feel weird cus we are both an armies and intp and have the same bias as i can see from your profile pic." yoongi" that has confirmd that he is an intp recently
I feel you
Most INTP if taken to an interview scores higher than actually the results in their papers
🤔I do this too. Instead I see it as, on my journey to study topic A, I found related or unrelated interests in topic B, but i
Don’t forget topic A, I go back to A and must get more data/info and I stumble across topic C, low and behold topic C is indirectly related to topic B, still none of these discoveries are related to topic A, but do not fret learning is never a waste! I get to topic D only to find that it is indirectly significant to topic A but directly related to topics B & C but only if topic B & C are present so they all relate to Topic A. Sure my research may be excessive but I am bringing home a huge WIN, meanwhile I have consumed tons of caffeine & dark chocolate and an so sleep deprived I crash! Over sleep and perform the best work my adrenaline glands can provide only to turn in my work late or with less than a minute to spare. The awareness of my deadlines motivate me like fire. This is the most concise explanation I could conjur for you. But all this to say I partially concur with your statement but I do encourage you to trust the rabbit holes & be constantly aware of your original goal & timeline. You’ll do fine. I now set multiple alarms on my phone to remind me if my focus points & deadlines. The alarms help but do not prevent my human error. Just trust & challenge your innate functions they do adapt/optimize!
Mate it's simple. If you work, you're an INTJ. If not, you're an INTP.
LOL!!! Genius ~ Nathan
I feel personally attacked. xD
I think INTP's are lazy geniuses. (I'm one) INTJ's are more focused on the hands on approach to solve problems
Still feel like such a jumble of them both.
This comment made me question whether I'm an INTP or INTJ once again. Thank you.
INTJs: Goal-orientated
- Narrow down ideas, with a specific goal in mind. Less flexible.
- Does this work? (pragmatic)
- Perfectionists in the sensory realm.
INTPs: Bogged down in the details
- Branch off ideas
- Defer decision-making, very adaptable and improvising.
- Why does it work? (Analysis)
now thats a j type if i ever saw one
By this, I'm an INTJ as what I've got from my mbti personality quiz
@@Yaavi-jx8jwyou’re not if you used 16p
Idk man I think that I’m an INTJ but I also wanna understand how everything works
@@dearryuzaki 16 p is not accurate? Then which test I should go with?
So basically when intps stop procrastinating they become intjs.
Yes
NO
intps don't stop procrastinating, lmao.
Xactly my situation i just started doing things and hence not sure whether am an intp r intj
Yep seems accurate
I'm sure many INTP's, like myself, have mistyped themselves as INTJ's at some point, but not the other way around for some reason.
I am pretty sure that s because most intp descriptions sound like boring people and unrelatable for most people (including most intj s and even intp s)
This is very true. As an INTJ, I'd say Ni allows us to type ourselves more quickly than the Ti process especially since Ni relies more on gut hunches rather than logical conclusions.
Well, I was mistyped INTP for years... being an INTJ. So the other way around happens too
@@Daltr00 Oh so it does happen. Well in my case though, almost all my best friends are INTPs and I also grew up with an INTP father. The difference between these two for me is very clear although for the rest of the INTPs i know, including my father, tend to second guess themselves as to their type.
Johnnie Dilang Cruz I live with ISTPs/INTPs, my best male friends are both INFPs and my best female friend is also a freaking INTJ... when she said to me that I was like "wow, now I understand why we're both fucking alien strange". We introverts just can't help to love each other.
Yoo, this video was actually hilarious to me lmao. The "INTPs are at least trying not to be as weird as they are" and the "While INTJs go out dressed in dark, INTPs looks like they got dressed in the dark" comments killed me
Haha! Thank you, glad you enjoyed it ~ Nathan
There is a simple solution to all of this: change your wardrobe so that you're always wearing dark and make sure that you have some sunglasses to put on (even at night). But it could be kind of expensive to change the wardrobe so much...
All I'm going to say is that at least I dress better than my ISFJ mother....
Well I was always seen as weird without even trying. Lol (INTP)
Yes, that was a hilarious comment!
I would rather die than not know how the cube works. Me, an INTP
Haha! Yep ~ Nathan
Plupp I wouldn't really care too much about the workings however, I would question the repercussions of using it (you can think of it as "Don't make a deal with the devil")
@@boohoo334 I agree. But probably after i had figured out how it worked. And perhaps that could be learned by too by learning how the cube itself worked.
RIGHT?! I was like "are you INSANE? If you know how it works you could make more, maybe you could customize it, you wouldn't have to just somehow TRUST it'll work forever (yeah right)…" The point is not to know, but to understand!
I would protect that thing bodily from being used, until I learned ALLLLLL its bits.
How… do INTJs value utility and expediency SO MUCH that they would cut off so much potential advancement and, yes, utility- out of impatience?
@@ellieb.1231 Totally agree with you!
I’ll keep questioning my MBTI type for the rest of my life probably
- INTP
Yeah…
Maybe a year later but not now just wait 😂
Then why ''- INTP''
INTJ here. Very accurate video indeed. I would also like to add some more points:
1) INTJs are very impatient in general because they just can't wait to get something done, and then relax later. Where as INTPs are very patient (almost "too" patient in my opinion) because they just go with their own flow, take their jolly sweet time and do not like to be hurried.
2) INTPs are very caring and want you to feel like you are important for them. INTJs on the other hand are quite self centered, and don't usually understand it.
3) INTJs want it to work, where as INTPs want to know why it works.
4) INTJs have "object issues" (they are more irritated at things that won't work rather than a confrontation), where as INTPs have "self issues" (they suffer more from their identity issues or public realtions rather than harmless objects)
5) INTJs are generally bossy and do not like to be controlled, where as INTPs are like a grown up child who are very sweet in general.
I think INTJs are patient when they are doing things for a reason. Like, waiting for their plans to funold, an useful insight, etc. Otherwise, they may come across as impatient for the things they are finding reasons to do so.
2,3,4,5 is true for me
😂😂😂
We just finished watching this together and before you even said anything
He (INTP) said: It would drive me crazy not to know how that thing works!
I (ENTJ) said: Who cares? Just use it.
Really enjoyed this one. You're great at explaining the subtleties.
Me as INTJ: "Well I do care, but I'm not sure if I want to waste time trying to figure out how this thing works. So give me this one more hour a day please, I'll do it great use of that..."
Exactly! I love that you both agreed with it and it's not just me making nonsensical ramblings ~ Nathan
Haha. I also drive my ENTJ boyfriend crazy by questioning everything.
Of course he is great, he's an INTP!
@@Daltr00 that's exactly what I (an INTJ) thought as well
When he said "5000 Wikipedia articles later" as an INTP I felt it
Edit: "INTPs can look like they got dressed in the dark." Bro you didn't have to come for me with such harsh truths hahaha...😅
Haha my bad for the call out but it needed to be done! ~ Nathan
These are the exact two points I didn't agree with - I elaborate on it more in my comment.
Nah... not for me, both of them. I don't trust Wikipedia at all. I'm neat with what I dress - but I always wear modest clothing with neutral colours, and my style never changes.
@Just Chill so can I. I have worn clothing inside out, even with light.
Is your sister sort of an inconsiderate asshole to you? Just checking. My brother is one.
Love Who not even mad about it cuz it’s true!! :)
“You can never be so sure”
-Random INTP
Edit: I’m not trying to be offensive
If you wish to offend an INTP you have to be an arrogant idiot who thinks he's clever and logically correct. Otherwise don't bother. We don't feel a thing lol.
I am typed as an INTP. It’s just for the people who are easily offended, even though it isn’t about them. Probably the ESFJ’s
@@georgexm2032 Aaah that's why my boyfriend is pissed when I start to act like a know-it-all xD thank you ^^" It's actually the only point we argue about. When we both start to be stubborn at this point. ^^"
@@georgexm2032 I'm not sure if that person even intended to be offensive, so your comment is logically incorrect
@@thefoolsfavorite neither Im arguing
Everytime I take a MBTI test I always end up with a 5 - 3 % difference ratio on the P/J scale. I relate to different aspects of their cognitive functions so I don't know if I'm just an organized and somehow focused INTP or a unmotivated and lazy INTJ.
I swear I'm in the middle of their flaws and strengths.
Same here. 100 videos later, and I still can’t tell whether I’m INTJ or INTP.
Same!!
I thought I was the only one!! I always get like a 1 - 2% difference on the p/j and I'm so confused, I've done a lot of research and I still don't know, help lol
Karla Rivera Karla Rivera same. I went from being 59% more P nine months ago and being an INTP, to being 56% more J, and being an INTJ. There has to be some sort of fluidity to this. However, the description of INTP on 16Personalities seems to resonate more with me than INTJ.
@Alexander Hamilton thanks
I’m an INT[?]. I have ADHD. I’m INTP off my medication, INTJ on it.
I also get more J as I age, I notice. At some point you realize sitting on your thumb and philosophizing isn’t going to help you reach your goals.
Cognitive functions?
On my test I’m almost 50/50 on intro and extro and 50/50 and perc and judgement, my official test from high school was solid intj w the close intro and extroversion still. The more recent one was more intp. I feel like I rly am in between the two.
@@bored4161 that’s not how mbti works. research cognitive functions
same same
Functions exist omgg people wont stop with this
you should talk about the intp intj combo, never met one without the other. it looks like these two types attract each other more than types do. just think about the two guys in the back of the class who dont talk to anyone but themselves, they are that combo guaranteed.
That's a great idea! ~ Nathan
My best friend is actually INTJ while I am INTP
My husband is intp and i am intj. Yes. We live in our tiny world
One of my best friends I have had for a long time is INTJ and I am INTP. We both like science and get along really well. Of course he has a B.S. in Electrical Engineering, MS. In Biomedical Engineering, and does research on an Airforce base and is getting his PHD in Aerospace engineering while I am happy to just hang out as a High School teacher and get to teach the interconnected concepts there.
Me (INTJ) and my sister (INTP) were watching this video together. When we got to your comment we immediately started cracking up laughing. Now we're wondering how often the combo are siblings.
"INTJs often start off with a goal in mind and ask themselves how do I get there? They will also simulate future options, possibilities, and scenarios but instead they ask themselves how can I use this situation to get closer to my aim? Or does this fit into my plan or not?" As an INTJ, I can confirm that you have accurately elaborated my personality type. Planning has always been my routine and I always facilitate simulations in my mind to get a view of what would happen with my established strategy. You're absolutely right when you said that INTJs are not "lovable" and "quirky".
Fascinating! It's really nice to get real-life confirmation for my theoretical ramblings ~ Nathan
I disagree with the quirky part. People find odd and weird things quirky. ( At least my understanding of the word.) My friends are always dumbfounded when I do something weird or say something weird. Of course being an INTJ I don't realize that it's weird in my brain.
Actually I kinda changed my mind. To the average person I might seem cold and detached. Not quirky. However my friends get to see my real side. Which is maybe quirky. Not sure.
Also if you often start typing a comment then discard it, you are most likely an INTP. I usually get lost in my own words so i cancel it mostly.
Same*
i thought im the only one who does that....(btw, i rewrote this comment 3 times)
Its because that we INTP just doesnt want to be misunderstood and would often change our mind and realize it could be a terrible idea for the future?
That or you pause the video every 5 seconds to write a new comment, instead of watching it all the way through and putting all your thoughts into one comment.
“ When you hit creative block ask an INTP. They have the answers, and random obscure facts that will start a conversation that will keep you from finishing your work ” INTJ
Yes they do. Seems like sometimes the deliberation style of INTP is wise.Othertimes, they miss opportunities by waiting.
As an INTP, I tend to care about what clothes I wear to some point. I do because I mean to look like an image of who I am inside. And since I believe myself to be extensively unique and somehow superior, I often look artistic and classy. Therefore I stand out of the crowd and grab both wanted and unwanted attention. To clear it up, I do look weird, but in an admirable way.
The most INTJ comment!!!
I've considered myself as an INTJ.
Your first example, I picked the INTP example.
The second example, I picked the INTJ example.
Now I'm confused.
Humans are complex creatures,so of course it's common to have a combination of different types of personalities. For example, you have a prominent personality and then the other personalities that are not as apparent as the main one. I'm considered an intj but my other two sup personalities are intp and entj.
@@Ninja-jumipy Thanks for the info. I was also confused if I was an INTP or an INTJ since I have a mixture of their personalities.
hah, same
@@josiahtm866 The INFJ and INTJ are the rarest, and there seems to be an abundance of INTJs and INFJs on the internet, is because most other traits don't really concern themselves with such issues.
SAME HELP
Hopefully this helps some of you narrow down your type more!
Hello Nathan!
Still trying to type you....I like your examples :)
Melissa
Thank you!
I love this video. Entertain me in a good way
JamieA6666,
Probably means that you’re not an INTP or an INTJ. Look at the bits that you recognise as being like you - those will relate to particular ‘functions’. Put those functions together to see which type, or types, look likely. Then narrow down from there. Maybe ask a friend.
ur definately an INTP..lol...😂
Just an INTP anecdote about how I notice Ti working in my life:
My parents are currently renovating our house and I'm frequently forced to help out, and in the last 3 days, I've been forced to work on major plumbing and electrical projects (my dad's a knowledgeable guy) and I know nothing about plumbing or electrical myself. My first response to having to do this work was apathy, as I just want to sit and watch youtube. But, once I was involved in the process of having to wire a switched outlet, I became really engaged with the problem and wanting to figure out how it worked as much as possible so we could find a solution. This was a pattern of initial apathy because I was overwhelmed by how little I knew about these topics, but once I was forced into them and learned a lot, trying to solve new problems became really interesting.
To sum up, INTPs experience a lot of apathy when it comes to things they don't already know much about, but can really become obsessed with why things work once they establish a baseline of knowledge.
INTP here. This is exactly how I am when doing almost anything new!
This is so accurate!!
Inertia thresholds for some, are much higher than others.
I would like to know, do those with high inertia thresholds also have a higher "stick-to-it-iveness as those that are quick to get going on something?
My dad would often, but not always, start a project, and not finish it. He was definitely an introvert, but not sure what type.
OMG INTP here and this is so accurate!!! Once I'm engaged in a new topic I get really interested, but I'm unwilling to start at first hahaha
Yo this is me to tee!!! I started my teaching career focusing on biology but then was given earth science to teaching which I knew nothing about. Well, fast forward half a summer and I taught myself earth science and I’ve been teaching it for 3 years now. The more I learn about it the more I like teaching it!
I am an intj, but always find I am constantly questioning my type, however this isn’t particular normal behaviour from an intj, just curious to see if anyone else has this issue.
God that's the same for me, I recongnize myself in an INTJ but I started to doubt when I learnt more about INTPs and INFJ (finally I'm not INFJ but I still really doubt about INTP)
I’m similar and always thought I was an INTJ. My husband is INTP, and I always see him as very lazy. It bothers me like crazy when it comes to keeping the house clean. It took four years for me to realize that it bothers me so much bc it forces me to be the clean one, and I don’t want to be the clean one. I also get really annoyed with him bc he never makes decisions. I constantly yell at him for making me make all the decisions around here. I realized I’m doing that bc I don’t want to make a decision either. We can’t go out to dinner with out having an argument about where to go bc neither of us know what we want. Maybe find some INTPs and gauge yourself off them. You gotta be sure first that they are an INTP, though!
@@samanthakoss1483 Hey, i made some researches, talked with people and thought, and now I can definitely tell that i'm nothing but an INTJ x)
Samantha Koss yea my best mate is an infj and I’m defiantly more cold than him use te rather than fe like him, after reaserching into it more I can confirm I’m defiantly and intj, I’m extremely goal oriented and always plan for the future, and like yourself have to always be organised, it really pisses me off if someone is all over the place
Me to
My husband is an INTP and I am an INTJ. Without applying anything I knew about MBTI, I have always described our goals as him as expansive and imaginative (the brilliant ideas man) and I as providing a more 'grounding' role to those ideas (manifesting the resources and time-table necessary for the idea decided most worthy of the time spent). It is a great combination but it can hit several snags in production. There have been times where my INTP husband has just wanted to explore concepts and I mistakenly, took all the ideas seriously and started poking holes in them (in my attempt to try to identify and iron out any issues beforehand). I had to learn to just appreciate staying with him in the intellectual realm when he was in such a mood, instead of trying to make everything a reality and envision how it would run "on the ground". Now, I try to make sure I can detect what the conversation leans towards and, if unsure, I ask if what we're talking about is something that he would want to 'do' in real life.
I’ve taken the test at different points in my life and always end up with a 49-51 ratio on the PJ scale, sometimes I’ve ended up an INTP and others an INTJ. I can relate to a lot of the things in this video to be honest.
JF1999 same, my girlfriend is an INTJ, and I’ve tested INTJ 6 times throughout 4-5 years, however she thinks I’m an INTP, but I’ve had 1-2% overlapping on J, thus wondering if my P and J are nearly interchangeable as multiple qualities of INTP and INTJ attribute to myself
Same here ,I tend to relate to both
Omggg same here!
Same - I always score nearly 50/50 and tried to find out whether I lean more towards INTP or INTJ... and I always can relate to both types - depending on matter and context sometimes more P and sometimes more J. Which might drive home the point that I am indeed an ambivert.
I can relate to this as well
You've pinpointed us INTJ s extremely well. You really did some homework this time. And this without even bringing in the word 'villian'. I'm very proud of you, video well done. And no, I'm not unsubscribing later because you always have interesting things to say.
This comment makes me very happy! ~ Nathan
Why do i always have the impression that intjs are asses even when they give praise ^^
Pop Khorne that’s hilarious
'Ugh, go away", said the INTP.
@@popkhorne5372 INTJ here. You have no idea (or maybe you do) how hard it is to sound genuine when giving praise. In person, it's awkward and straight faced. Online, we're way too intellectual and serious because of our lack of flare and sometimes accidentally sound like we're subtly judging you.
INTP here, no question about it. So non-goal-oriented that it's almost a handicap. More interested in understanding money than in having money. I used to dress exclusively in military surplus because it was cheap and practical. At some point my Fe got worried about my appearance, so I started wearing a tweed suit instead. Now I've found a middle ground; slim black jeans with slim black hoodie. Thanks for the video, well formulated as always.
Glad you enjoyed the video! ~ Nathan
Slim black jeans ftw man
Very good video. I'm an INTP with an INTJ fiancee. We have our similarities but the way we operate is very different. Most of the confusion comes from not knowing the cognitive functions, we don't share a single one in the top 4. As an example, she sometimes writes blogs and am trying to write a book.
INTJ- She has like 10 articles out
INTP- whilst I'm trying to discover the underlying system behind writing styles to perfect the first paragraph of my first chapter (it's going well).
INTJ- She has plans and when something unexpected happens she is completely stressed and paralyzed.
INTP- I don't plan and if something unexpected happens I improvise and find a solution using the systems I have created through analysis ahead of time.
INTJ- When she talks it's always for a specific reason and she assumes everyone is like that, making her question my motives when I'm just exploring ideas.
INTP- I usually have just one motive, to understand, and I will notice something interesting in a conversation and stop and start explaining it, which makes her puzzled and ask me "and why are you telling me this? what is your point?"
There is no way you can be in between one and the other, if you think you're on the line in between them then you haven't looked into the Jungian functions enough. Forget about the Myers-Briggs test and just the 4 letters, that last 1 letter difference completely reverses the introversion/extroversion of each function and changes whether a sensing or a judging function is primary. We share NO functions. If you think "I'm an INTX but do that too" then know that everyone does everything sometime, consider how often you tend to do it. Get it right scrubs.
This was fascinating to watch as someone who is interchangeably an INTP and INTJ. I find that I have both of the traits in most of the examples but how I use them is very situational.
"5,000 Wikipedia articles later, and you have... not finished the video"
I CACKLED IT'S SO TRUE
I did something akin to this literally two hours ago
I'm glad it's accurate! ~ Nathan
INTJ's dress in dark, Intp's dress in the dark :)) That's a very good one. I will quote you on this :). Also, it isnt that we cant dress well, but : 1) the effort to pick and buy clothes is too much for us because 2) we value people for who they are not how they appear and we want to be valued the same way.
Infp here and I relate soooo muchhhh
Hahah that's interesting cause I'm an INTP girl, and I love fashion and dressing up. It makes me feel put together even though I'm the opposite of that in reality..
I literally dress in the dark lol and somewhat has become my signature look. Dressing up is fun if I had time :)
Very well said!! ~ Nathan
@@Lena-jo9ll Right there with you.
Although I don't try to dress in current fashion, just *my* fashion.
This year with the amount of essays I had to write I realized that I was much slower than my peers. I had ideas, I analyzed very well and I was able to plan what I wanted to do but when it came to writing I couldn’t write 100 words a day at first. I always got stuck on the meanings of the words, if the information I had was true, that I know what I was talking about. These essays are not life changing but when I become interested in stating my point of view, eveything I had to write should be true or reflect me perfectly. I know that isnt a good way of thinking but itdoesn’t feel right if I don’t make sure of these points. It creates such unnecessary stress but I can’t avoid it. I dont know what I should do.
Lal Birol This is so true for me as well. I think on some level I just can’t write anything that doesn’t make sense to me or ring true because the only way I can write is in the pursuit logical coherence. Logic and truth are the guidelines by which I structure all of my writing.
I have no idea how people can actually write things that don’t make sense. Being misinformed is one thing, but to have no logical structure to your writing at all? Any logical inconsistency would be immediately apparent to me before even typing the thing up, and would be met with deep discomfort and anxiety.
I completely understand you on this point. I’m writing my thesis and it’s struggle city. What I have noticed, however, is that once I write something, it usually doesn’t need a lot of editing. Whereas other people’s writing needs a few rounds of editing. As a whole, I think we might be slightly slower but with a better endproduct. This is what I tell myself anyway ;)
Right! I have to find from a to z facts about what i suppose to write. Later and later i found my self in another sea of unrelated topic. My knowledge increased but that not knowledge that i suppose to know. In the end, i just write whatever i know coz my time already so limited.
omg samee
“INTJs look like they dress dark, INTPs look like they got dressed in the dark”
That one part was all I needed to affirm my seating as an INTP. I’ve always ever since getting the results questioned which of the two I am, since I have many similar traits of an INTJ, but I just couldn’t put my finger on which of the two I was more of, but that quote might have been what I needed lol.
That was the most clever way I have seen to get people to subscribe esp. the "you can always unsubscribe later", kudos to you.
I an INTJ dating an INTP. We are COMPLETELY different! I did a PhS in Philosophy and Logic and to quickly break to myth around logic, it's not analytically at all. Logic is nothing like math and requires an insane amount of creativity. In logic you tend to have one goal, similar to how INTJs narrow in on one thing. You're give 'rules' which are really the possibilities INTJs focus on. The goal of logic is to reach the goal in the most efficient way within the bounds of the rules. Which seems analytical, but really you can reach the goal 100 different ways.
Anyways, when my partner and I get into arguments, 99% of the time it's me telling him: "Focus on ONE thing at a time!" It's hilarious, he gets so lost in trying to understand things he loses sight of why he's doing something.
I have an ENTP shadow side and he has an ENTJ shadow, shit gets real when stress kicks in.
Good luck with that relationship ! I wonder, did you guys dislike each other at first ? I have the impression that as an intp, i cant help but be annoyed by intjs until they grow on me.
I, as an INTP, love logic. You can just wander around in the rules given, and find the weirdest results. Usually, after wandering around for a bit in a new set of rules, homework-like exercises are easily solved.
How exactly do you differentiate between math and logic ? Optimization of a quantity,under fixed constraints and axioms (AKA "most efficient way") is a math problem,(not quite a "logic" problem,that is exactly what,computer science deals with ). In fact, you can say,modern logic is a subset of mathematics ,in general .Just,In math,You experiment with possibilities,and I don t know what you do with "logic" alone . Ofc,High school and college give a bad impression ,That math is all about formulae(that is exactly,The most cost efficient way to program a bunch of morons to do menial tasks)
Good one. Thanks god to break the myth of logic, when i read that about logic few months ago, i thinked that i was cheated all my life, for me logic was always mathematics and no, it’s about conections, creativity. When you read about the shadow of Carl jung and you pay attention to your shadow things turn scary because is true.
Intps have more in common with entjs and entps and infps than intjs xd
@@jayasri6764 Logic is abstract mathematics. >_>
Either way, us ENTP love y'all.
Yes! I'll do some comparisons between ENTP vs INTP etc as well ~ Nathan
Bless you.
Hmmm... I think when an INTJ is in leisure mode, or does not have a specific goal in mind, like when he's just wasting time in an airport, he becomes an INTP and focuses on analyzing stuff and collecting information.
A real life example, I've recently discovered online shopping (yeah, I'm late in the game) and as an INTJ initially I just clicked and paid and that's it, done! No need to know all these other possibilities. Then, during a boring day with nothing specific to do, I just thought why not explore this online shopping app. Likewise, when I don't have anything to do, I like to walk around and discover random little things in my neighborhood, like an Indian grocery and a hole in the wall Chinese restaurant. Otherwise I don't really care.
However, all this information will be stored for future use. In fact, my INTJ mind deliberately tries to find a way to use these collected information, or else I bury them in the deep recesses of my memory, because my mind dismisses them as unimportant. Which is why, I think, the little details I collect find their way into my writing. Information can't just sit in an INTJ mind, but needs to be useful for a goal.
What do you think, fellow INTJs?
I agree.
Me, an intj, bored in quarantine doubting if I'm an intj or not. Anyway I refuse to be an intp because lol I like being an intj
To abstract this a bit, an INTJ without a goal is becomes INTP while looking for a goal.
Yes, INTJ's can go into Wikipedia wormholes when they are off-duty. Even some ENTJs will do that.
Though for me, usually I go to Wikipedia initially because I want to know something specific.
I totally agree. I'm INTJ. When not in a rushed mood, I will count ceiling tiles, people with black shoes on, wonder about all sorts of things.
Yes, things can't just sit in my mind.
Younger me took the official test and was cast as an INTJ with a near 50/50 J vs P. But a few years later, with another official test, I’m obviously an INTP. I feel like it’s the rigid grade school structure and the parents that valued education, that made me more J than P back then. Because once I was left on my own for uni and flourishing after, I’ve sort of “let go” and explored many things , and now struggle more to get things done compared to young “INTJ” me 😂 to many great ideas and things to do… so little time ….no I’m just procrastinating
as a primarily INTJ who has sometimes also tested as an INTP (like 5% of the time. i was a psych major in college and have taken the MBTI MULTIPLE times), i feel like i have an EXTRAORDINARILY INTIMATE/PERSONAL perspective of BOTH sides of this...
as far as how they approach nearly EVERY aspect of life...
think of perspective/approach to ANYthing as though its trapped in/part of a funnel.
INTPs are EXPANSIVE - they start at the narrow end of the funnel and work their way out. they see ALL OF THE POSSIBILITIES (and beyond). INTJs are REDUCTIVE - they start at the wide part of the funnel and are GREAT at boiling things down to their most essential/crucial aspects.
Excellent!!! Narrow to wide, wide to narrow.
More INTJ videos!
Will do! We have loads on here you can go and check out if you haven't already. I find your channel fascinating btw. When did you realise you were an INTJ? ~ Nathan
こんにちわ、言語オタクです！
ビデオを見つけちゃう
I know, but you guys are way too efficient to have many channels devoted to you. You don’t want to bother with it. You are busy with more important things, like fixing this worldwide panic attack we seem to have going on, by targeting a new planet, just for you, and YOUR MOST TRUSTED ADVISORS, THE INFJS. Seriously do not leave without us, please. We have much to offer, we are charming. We aren’t enjoying ourselves while we are being charming, however, but it gets shit done in a way you guys need. Also, we can both sit in silence for hours and never bother eachother. It’s the best. We are self directed. But we also take orders well, when we believe in the cause, which we always do when INTJs are concerned. Our internal values align. We also see things slightly differently in a way you guys actually, miraculously, seem to respect. Come one, don’t leave without us, promise? We knew you were planning something..yes, yes...
Hey no shit, lol your learning languages for different personalities video was what started my 3 or 4 day personality info quest that has led me here lol
@@user-hf6jm4tv2v こんにちわ？見つけちゃう? I can smell the baka gaijin from a mile away.
Yup... I still feel like both. Sometimes I'm super decisive and have a concrete goal, sometimes I get side tracked and go of on a tangent to find out how things work. But I do think my dominant personality is intj
If people think you are cold then you probably are leaning more towards INTJ.
Weird. I really am an INTJ. And a Goth... I have an arsenal of black dresses. Also, I tell people I'll never change for them or anyone which is what you have described. Thanks for this.
lol, Welcome to the meeting. Make sure you get your free Uber ride card punched for the INTJ meetup. Most
of us will not show up...
In 1976, during the age of the disco duck and my school years, I wore black.
In Florida, during the 70s, one did not wear black unless they were Johnny Cash.
I did.
My sociology class filled out comment cards on everyone in the class. I couldn't wait to read mine when I received
my stack and guess what? I was rather surprised to find out that almost everyone commented or had
something to doodle about my choice of 'colors'.
I was delighted when black yoga pants arrived in our local stores. Now, I shop online and guess what?
I am wearing black as I type. I wish you well and wear the heck what you want to, they all do.
A large majority of us INTJs are goth. It seems that we just have a natural inclination for that kind of thing.
I'm the same way, I say I want people to like me for me, not what I wear, but I discovered that I'll change what I wear if it suits my purposes, like for a job interview. I mostly dress in long-sleeved tee shirts and sweatpants, but I do like the look of casual professional-type clothes, slacks and a nice blouse or sweater. Where my own sense of style comes in is that I prefer solid-colored clothes with a texture to the weave, rather than plain flat-looking cloth. To me, that says "style".
INTP Goth saying hi. ^_^
Goth INTJ guy here
INTJs Ni and Te makes them have a narrowing style of thinking. They take a bunch of things and they can simplify them to find the end result or solution in no time
INTPs Ti and Ne on the other hand makes them have a broadening style of thinking. They can take one thing and expand it out into many different concepts to create abstract ideas and thoughts
I already knew I am an INTP, but this video opened my eyes about a thing. Listening you talking about how INTP's are more oriented in understanding than doing, and how they can teach to others, made me wonder about my possible future as a teacher. I am 25 and still a university student, always struggling to find my way in life, and maybe this is what I needed to listen.
But I'm an INTP, I will probably change my mind or fill my head with doubts in 2 days hahaha. But thanks for this video, seriously!
You will get there. You are progressing. It’s not always easy to have clarity in your future especially if uncontrollable variables interrupted your plans. But you will succeed. Time is working for you.
So, 2 years later ... what happened with you? 😁
definitely an INTP before INTJ after hearing that example---100% a tendency to take things apart indefinitely to the point that it's detrimental and unproductive
OMG I laughed out load (and I'm an INTJ, can you imagine) because you nailed my and my INTP husband's clothing habits so correctly. "INTJ will go out dressed in dark, INTPs will look like they got dressed in the dark". I really do have mainly dark clothes and my husband will take the first shirt he finds, even if it looks like it has been taken from under the dog and his proper clothes are prepared in the wardrobe.
HAHA!! Glad you both thought it was accurate!! ~ Nathan
You laughed out a load of what?
@@Klarpimier A load of autocorrect
Yeah... I'm an INTP.
Hopefully this video helped you confirm it in some way ~ Nathan
Don't worry... you'll start doubting it again within the next few months.
Just me, myself and I Don’t call me out like that. I know that most of my personality traits are that of an INTP, but what if I’m mistyping myself? What if I think I’m one way and then put myself in a box because of it?
This explains so much! My dad is INTJ and I'm INTP and we've always been very similar in a lot of things, but still there were things, that never clicked the same for us. This makes so much sense now!
As an INTJ, yes I agree with this explanation of the two types. Excellent job explaining. Thank you.
I don’t get how people get confused over the two. They’re completely different!
Indeed! ~ Nathan
i'm confused cause i got INTJ few months ago and now i got INTP, i'm like ????
@@Theyou252425 Each function isn't simply either/or, but they are on a spectrum. Using you as an example, Judging---Perceiving is a spectrum with a defined midpoint. If you are very close to the midpoint, you might have characteristics of both types. If you were to pay to take the official MBTI test, your results would include several charts, among them would be where you are on the spectrum of each function.
I disagree. It is very, very easy to confuse the two. Say you are a severely jaded individual as a child after people let you down constantly. You decided at a very young age never to depend on anyone. That could cause you to slip into your ENTJ unconscious permanently causing you to think you are INTJ bc you constantly display -NTJ characteristics. You wouldn’t categorize yourself as ENTJ bc you know for sure without a doubt you are introvert. Then you could be very confused.
My husband is an INTP and I'm an INTJ. We appear similar, and we are compatible, but how we arrive at decisions is so different!
5,000 Wikipedia articles later....🤣 That's so me.
Yea I thought I'd lower it to 5000 so people didn't realise how many INTPs actually read ~ Nathan
My brother (and a lot of people too) often complain about me being child-like and way too hyper
- INTP
They say the same to me
- INTJ
I always thought I was weird INTJ who was just lovable and child-like. Lol no. Now I think I’m really an INTP who acts like an -NTJ a ton. I act like an -NTJ bc im an immature INTP who’s always acting in my unconscious mind, the ENTJ.
ISTJ here. I've been called those things too.
Things I've heard : Take a break, Aren't you tired? Tomorrow's another day, No one will appreciate all that. Ok, time to stop now. You wear me out, just watching you. 😱😱😱
I did two personality tests . I was INTP in one and INTJ in the other . The INT part were well into the 70-80% range . But the P and J were like 49-51 range . I guess it means you can become INTP and INTJ according to different circumstances
Omg the same thing always happens to me. I keep switching between intp and intj
not how it works, try studying the cognitive functions for why that is, I'm not sure but I'm guessing that you're probably an intj
I see a lot of people saying they can switch but that’s not how it works. The intp has:
Introverted thinking
Extroverted intuition
Introverted sensing
And extroverted feeling
While an intj has:
Introverted intuition
Extroverted thinking
Introverted feeling
And extroverted sensing
We can see that the intp has feeling lower than an intj does, while intjs have Se lower on the list.
I get the same results, but every time I examine the differences between INTJ and INTP, I am definitely an INTJ and definitely NOT an INTP. The difference in personality traits is night and day. I came across a video that gave visual examples of the environments that each prefers, and it was eye-opening. I could be friends with an INTP, but I couldn't live with one.
How do you create your home environment? INTJs prefer neat, minimalist environments; that's also how they tend to dress. INTPs live like they make their home in gypsy carnivals, and they pretty much dress like it, too; I mean messy, a riot of color, clashing colors.
"an INTP will go out like they dressed in the dark"
I am offended
-An INTP with good fashion sense
_press X to doubt_
I agree. I know what looks good- with outfits, with home decor, with landscaping, and more. I don't sacrifice utilitarian and comfort for the sake of looks, however. With a little planning, I hit each nail , looks, practicality, and comfort.
I think with xNTPs, it’s possible to enjoy fashion and experimenting with clothes, and still look bad or eccentric while doing it. Us ENTPs may enjoy it more, being Ne doms, because it’s a way of expressing creativity. I love experimenting and putting different combos together. Also, I think ultimately that having tertiary Fe forces us to put a little bit more thought into our outfits than maybe the INTPs do. Like, I can’t always be bothered to make the effort, but I feel a slight sense of shame when I don’t. INTPs may not even realize that they’re underperforming fashion-wise. Which is adorable. I just want to squeeze them until their eyes pop out. INTPs and INTJs, both need squeezing.
I'm pretty sure INTP's know when they aren't dressing fashionably... And they do have a sense of fashion, they just never really use it... INTP's don't dress for social approval, they dress to keep warm and cover themselves.
@@MyouKyuubi ^
@@MyouKyuubi So true! I always have to wear at least one more layer than everybody else to keep warm. And I don't like showing my cleavage and sooo many women's stylish clothing is super cute but so low cut I can't bring myself to wear it. So I end up wearing sweatpants, which are the warmest. Why they don't design more WARM stylish clothing for women is beyond me - it's not like there wouldn't be a market for it!
These comments bring up an interesting point. Would INTP's be known as unfashionable in another era?
Today's trends are so hideously gauche and barbaric by the standards of any other era that anyone with independent judgment would repulse them. INTP's have stronger independent judgment than anyone.
So a lot of INTP clothing choices may really amount to "this is the nearest approach I can find to a dignified and beautiful style which exists only in my imagination;" or, "this is my contemptuous rejection of an industry which has already contemptuously rejected everything I respect."
Can you please make a Video on whether you are an INTP or an ENTP?? That would be so helpful ❤️
Yes that's on my list!! I'll bump it up a few steps just for you ~ Nathan
Easy, do you feel more energized being around other people, or do you feel more energized when you’re by yourself?
@@allen2346 only energised when I'm around people I want to be around and talking or doing interesting (intellectual or active) things... Otherwise a bit of a loner which I don't mind! So a yes and a no. I've also asked Nathan to analyse the differences as all the functions are the same and hence guess can be more easily confused... Plus many intp descriptions online make them sound like anti-social beings but I'd like to think I'm actually quite good around others... Sprinkle a little charm and little wit 😁. I do believe the spectrum of how E or I someone feels they are isn't always the best indicator of type! Some other CZcams channels talk about varying sleep and blast energies for each type which make matters of typing even more diverse!
I have a friend who is such a textbook INTP, everyone in my town has heard of her as she has a very mysterious vibe like you mentioned. But in real life you see she’s really nowhere near as ‘cool’ as people think she is and she knows it! She has extreme social anxiety. Such a bizarre dichotomy. Really into conspiracy theories too 😂😂
I would love to see a video on INFJ vs INFP and INFJ vs INTP (that’s always the one I wonder about!)
I’ll make sure to do both of those videos! ~ Nathan
Interesting. Conspiracy theories give me hives once they move past the harmless challenge of a syllagistic riddle, and become cognitive Chinese fingertraps.
Amazing ability to breakdown types and explaining them. I have an INTJ friend and this is exactly what he's like. . Thank you sir.
I always enjoy love who’s videos.
As an INTJ I can easily see the difference between myself and him. Even so, it takes me a while to pull the trigger on “something I know I need to do.” The main reason I wait so long is because I want the freedom to be able to do it correctly and free from distractions in a world that is always attempting to force your attention elsewhere.
I’ve managed to figure out a way to make enough money from home that I don’t have to leave to accomplish goals, which was the most difficult thing I’ve ever done. Society is overall, a burden to me, and “consumers” don’t focus on their needs, but their wants. Which in my field, is what I have to exploit to accomplish anything. I have to bring to the forefront the impending doom of not listening to me to get results. It works very effective, but it doesn’t make anyone happy.
INTJs like to dress dark and INTPs look like they've dressed in the dark!!! Funny ..!!
Glad you liked that line, I was pretty happy when that popped into my head ~ Nathan
I often get either INTJ or INTP on personality tests. In fact, of the 4 characteristics, P/J is the one where I consistently get a 50%/50% split when the test shows percentages.
This was probably the best explanation of INTP vs INTJ. I really identified with both quite a bit. I'm someone who likes to focus on the end goal in planning but constantly gets bogged down in the various branching paths.
That example of the powered object really had me stumped as to what I would choose. Clearly, the logical answer would be to get the one use out of it, but the allure of figuring it out and potentially unlocking more uses out of it is so tempting that I could easily see myself just going with that on impulse after a lot of indecisive back-and-forth.
INTPs do often create plans and goals, but rarely execute it properly.
I enjoy your approach to describing the differences between the personality types and the functions. Thanks.
INTP
Thank you! That’s great to hear ~ Nathan
Very well explained and easy to understand and short (didn't have the time to get bored or be distracted since new information kept being introduce at "right moment" and after being explained in a straightforward manner).
I've only watched two of your videos about my type INTJ and you instantly became my favourite expert on the topic. Exemplary breakdown my friend. First rate on all accounts. Consider yourself Liked, Shared, Subscribed, and Notification Belled.
Your videos are very calming 👍🏼
(INTP)
Thank you! For some reason I find that very surprising ~ Nathan
Agree. And easy to keep interested in watching.
This is interesting. I have always flip flopped between the two, and I did find, while watching this, that I felt torn between each set of examples you gave. I am usually happier when I lean towards INTJ over INTP. Whenever my INTP comes out I feel very stuck, like I could research an idea forever and not feel comfortable taking action.
Interesting. Have a look at out other INTJ and INTP videos to see which ones you relate to more and let me know! ~ Nathan
I’m an INTJ. I haven’t done much research about the types, but my friend got INTP on the 16 personalities test. She ended up leaving me for another group of friends.
then she is not an INTP
@@rjortilano4967 why not?
Consume a few INTJ memes, it will be one of the most fun things you ever did in your entire life.
@@rjortilano4967 people like you really disgust me. It takes years for someone to be able to fully understand themselves and their type but people like you just go around and judge people by literally one sentence! One effing sentence.
@@egomaniac7230 he already stated that he hasn't done much research and his friend got INTP based on a test meaning you where assuming that they have took years of research to find out their personality
you where the judgmental one here by judging that i was judging him in a bad way by me saying one sentence "your friend isn't an INTP"
I know I’m an INTJ, but I identified w/ many of the descriptions of INTP here. In my case, it’s probably due to my need to adapt to my life circumstances. I had to be EVERYONE/EVERYTHING to myself (mom, dad, teacher, friend, doctor, so I was able to develop my weaker functions, initially by emulating others, then eventually embodying their qualities.
I'm so glad to have come across this channel.
My best friend is an INTJ and I’m INTP. We say he keeps me on track. Unless I’m in a bad mindset, then I tell him something along the line of, “Back off, I need this now.”
I like how deep you know the intps you help me understand the way people react to intps in general you also help me understand myself more, this channel is the best when it comes to mbti information. Idk if that comes out messy but keep it up 👍 can't wait for your next video
Thank you so much for this comment! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho ❤❤❤
This is the video I've been looking for.
Thank you!! Feel free to check out our other INTP and INTJ videos ~ Nathan
I'm somewhere in the middle... I start with a goal, but while trying to get there by connecting pieces that paves the path, I often find myself analyzing them at least to some extent. Not because I want to, but rather I have to. This is to make sure that it actually works and I'm not being misinformed. Because in today's online culture, everyone is a self-proclaimed guru. And you have to differentiate the phonies from real deal.
Not sure what that makes me, but that's fine as long as I actually find the truth.
I've been spending a long time studying and thinking whether I'm an Intj, Intp or Infj and I always get more confused watching these videos and trying to understand what is the "true me"... Well, I think it's pretty INTP, but I'm gonna keep the options open
Nice video tho
Absolutely love the examples :D
Thank you! I'm glad they weren't too weird ~ Nathan
Yep, still an INTP. (I didn’t think the video was going to make me question my type. I just watched it anyway and kept thinking yep - INTP. That’s me)
Same.
Me alone: INTP
Me with other people: INTJ
Clear and insightful. INTP when alone. INTJ with others.
Yeah this confirmed I'm INTJ. It's very natural for me to establish a goal, break a problem down to its essential parts and discard the noise. I also have a tendency to think others take too much time in figuring out why something is the way that it is when I've already established that it doesn't matter because we know enough now to get us to our goal. In my mind, I'm thinking "we're wasting energy and time doing this." But over the years I've also learned this can be a shortcoming in the way I think, because understanding how something works can lead to new possibilities that are helpful.
This was the best explanation I’ve ever heard. Thank you.
Took the test innumerable times, tested as INTJ twice but from the functions , I'm definitely an INTP, you did a great job explaining this .
The thought of being able to help people narrow down their type is so great! ~ Nathan
I have always been on the fence with my tests revealing INTJ 65% of the time and INTP the remaining 35. But after this clear video I can certainly say I am an INTJ without a doubt. Whenever I consider future scenarios I usually backtrack from my 'goals' and see which path has the higher probability (branches off to more paths connecting to goal) to finally reach the goal. And also in that magical object question he asked, I felt 0 hesitation in choosing the 1st path...like analysing and knowing is all good but I wont risk that given that my analysis may not yield any results and i may never use the object. I wont wanna waste the bird already in my hand.
But...in the very next example, I swayed again towards INTP
"debatable" :))
Indeed ~ Nathan
That was very INTPish
INTP here. I have to say this was an excellent video. Probably the best breakdown of the two I had seen.
This was a needed diferenciation. I am an INTP mother of an INTJ son. You helped me understand the slight variation of traits and their expression.
That's really awesome to hear. That parent child dynamic sounds like a really brilliant and fascinating one ~ Nathan
I’m an INTP who loves INTJs. They are literally the only personality type that makes me feel like I’ve got an upper hand socially. I mean that in the most loving possible way. They bring out my playful side.
Intps are the most attractive type in my opinion -intj
I love ya!! INTJ here.
When I take the tests I get intj but I think I'm an intp just a more disciplined one, because no one would compare me to the lazy intp stereotype.
In the first scenario, I would definitely want to analyze the device since doing so could create more opportunities for efficiency but in the second, with the youtube thumbnail, I would get the video completed before doing any outside research. My fashion sense falls closer to intj as well.
So I don't know which I am more like.
But since I'm here questioning it and overthinking it that probably puts me more in the intp category.
hmm this certainly has a hint of INTP over-analysing but tbh the overall mindset seemed more INTJ with the 'extraverted thinking' desire for efficiency rather than the more explorative INTP approach ~ Nathan
@@lovewho Maybe but I agree with the part that I would dislike there being something in my life that I couldn't analyze even though the idea of making the device more efficient is almost equally as appealing.
I took the test on Metarasa where it offers percentages of the types. It gave me 92% intp 91% intj. I don't know if that site is considered reliable but I found the results frustrating and amusing.
@@j-valentineFeel free to have a look through our other INTJ and INTP videos to see which type feels like it fits better for you! ~ Nathan
I feel the "mysterious object" thought experiment was a little skewed; because if you can wait a little while and get more out of the thing then just taking it now. Why wouldn't you? (unless you were in extreme circumstances and need it now)
I don’t know what I am anymore. 2:25 When you started going on about being decisive, I thought, “Oh that’s easy, must be an Ni user” but then I remembered on of my favorite manipulation tactics as a child was to act indecisive when given a choice of two things I really wanted (lollipop or chocolate etc.) I would start panicking, not making a scene but visibly stressed. I found that a lot of the time, I would end up getting both things. This was perhaps the only successful manipulation tactic I used frequently. It works better under a time limit, like a checkout line since the person had less time to process what’s going on. Normally, decisive is a word that could describe me, but that little tactic will stick with me.
Videos that break down and compare functions in types is where you, of CZcamsrs, win the gold medal.
Hope you enjoyed the video! Feel free to check out our discord server if you want to connect with other people who are knowledgeable about typology. The link for that is in the description of the video ~ Nathan
I'm not so sure about that proposed outcome. I'm an INTJ and I imagined this mystical item that would give me 8 hours more per day (to sleep instantly ans save time) BUT I would first question the stability and safety of that item i.e can it hurt my in any way shape or form, how it will affect my mind body and spirit etc. as a result of that I would be incline to make it work. Although I will admit the process of making it work would piss me TF off so badly, I would hate every second of it...but I'd do it if it could be used for my other goals. Perfection is the object of my desire so you intrigue me with the possibility of that. Anyways, I just thought I would share that idea with you. I grew up with a best friend who is INTP and I love hearing your ideas etc.
just to elaborate on that, sure I use things that have been verified as safe like a computer for example. but a mystical item that cannot be verified would have to be otherwise my time is useless if i die, or age faster or something crazy.
That was my reaction. I picked the INTP side on that question. What's the catch? Needs investigation. Also need to consider the ramifications of having that benefit over the long term, and whether you would become dependent on the object to function properly.
yea same... I was like "what if it shortens my life span? thats not convnient at all" lmao
Is it normal if I can relate more to INTJ's characteristics, but I tend to procrastinate a LOT? (I'm new to this MBTI world, so I don't know much about it yet)
Found this video very interesting, never met an intj but one my closest friends is an Intp. When you talked about the clothes it reminded me of how my intp friend has never cared about how he looked until he was at a party and they were playing superlatives. The question was who dressed the worst and everyone pointed at him. Now he takes forever to chose his outfits, still not that good at it but he is getting better.
My son is an INTP and he really has lovely taste, when asked.
His uniform is a tee-shirt, shorts or jeans. He could care less about clothes.
I am an INTJ who has never met another INTJ in real life, either.
I have a closet to die for because my Mother studied design and I could have conversations with her about clothes.
I choose my clothes, outfits and the collectible jackets I wear to lunch with the ladies who lunch very carefully.
It is not about clothes, it is about the meaning of the outfit.
What message am I sending about who I am?
Haha! INTPs are just amazing ~ Nathan
When you were talking about the differences it made me think about how much I hate being asked “where do you see yourself in 5 years?”
My brother asked me that once...and I told him I figured I would be doing exactly what I was doing at the time... and it's 20 years later and I still am. I knew myself then, and I know myself now, and I knew what I wanted out of life what I didn't want and that's what I have. Example: I prefer to rent because I don't want to have to maintain a house/yard or pay someone to do it, or pay to heat / cool an entire house when a small two-bedroom apartment gives me all the room and need and more. And I don't have to pay home-taxes, which are the highest in the country where I live.
