Nathan Diego maybe in love or happiness or etc but letting feelings take over a bad situation between you and somebody I’d rather think the situation then feel. Decision making should always be thinking and not feeling

one of my biggest fears is to be average, to not stand out, that’s really accurate, and I hate the thought of not being appreciated or admired for what I’m doing. I met this INTJ that stood out to me, ‘cause not only was he incredibly smart, but he admired me for my intelligence... he actually liked it, you know? I’m not superficially intelectual; I don’t have this intelectual appearance, so most people don’t realize how much I like being appreciated for my brain. most people I know don’t give me the chance to talk about, like, cosmology and black holes or to debate edison and tesla... and intj did. he was confident and cool, but known to be a know it all, and I loved to be a know it all with him and be appreciated for that. I never quite understood what made me like him so much, but this video, unintentionally, made it so clear to me.

I can relate to that. In the world of romantic relationships, I've found that there can also be danger in being attracted to people because they're attracted to us. While it's cool to intellectually impress people, I already know that I can if given the chance, so I can end up in a relationship with someone that I'm not actually attracted to (intellectually that is...;)). I dated a girl who asked me one night why I loved her. She was feeling insecure because she said she could list lots of reasons that she was attracted to me. It was a rough moment for me because I didn't know how to respond...crickets for like 10 seconds. I really did think I loved her, but I guess I didn't know why. We ended up breaking up not too long after that. After lots of reflection over the following days/months I realized that I liked her because she did what no one else had: encourage me to verbalize my ideas and thought processes and admire them. But, I now realize that I need to be with someone because of who they are, not just because they validated who I am. Idk if that resonates with you, but I thought I'd share.

When he said that ENTP wonders talking about turning off their 'chameleoness,' I felt that on a soul level.

"Unappreciated" is soo true, I don't care if you dislike me, know the reason. I really want to say you nailed the part "they can keep up with them" OH DEAR THE PAIN. I look at things 3 times to make sure I don't miss anything and there are still details I don't see. "No honour" as you said we are very adaptable, everyone can be as adaptable but not everyone sees it. It's crazy how one person could be anyone believing in anything depending on the way they grew up so for me, I choose for a reason what I believe and why. What if one day I decide I don't give an f? That's scary. It would work for everyone but most people don't seem to question their beliefs. I love taking to people and learning about their beliefs and background to see what shaped them.

An FJ or FP type can be quite rigid in their moral values because that´s the pattern (to view and judge and evaluate the world) that "feels" right to them beyond the need for a logical validation - so they stick to it until the end... on the hill.

Being suddenly thrust into chaos gives you perspective and distance. That sense of distance enhances the function of Ne and the decider/rational functions, sometimes providing sudden clarity about the meaning, structure, and function of a situation.

As an ENTP, I just relate too much with what you say: the fear of seeing doors closing (i never knew how to put words on it), and most importantly, you made me discovered why i was fascinated by some persons, because they are able (well, they don't know how to do the countrary, it's more like a "they have to" than a "they are able" to, but anyway) to, as you said, pick a color and stick with it, which most of us can't do. Also, you are right on the fact we fear about even ourselves can think about, as sometimes i don't even know what my opinion is, as I do so much the devil's advocate. Finally, i just don't know if we don't have an opinion, if we, deep inside, have an opinion but defend others, or if we have all opinions at the same time. Thank you for making me discover more about myself with this great vid :3

Ne, Extraverted Intuition as explained by Carl Jung... by C. G. Jung, M.D. "Whereas true extraverted intuition has a characteristic resourcefulness, and a ‘ good nose ’ for every possibility in objective reality, this archaic, extra- verted intuition has an amazing flair for every ambiguous, gloomy, dirty, and dangerous possibility in the background of reality. In the presence of this intuition the real and conscious intention of the object has no significance; it will peer behind every possible archaic antecedent of such an intention. It possesses, therefore, something dangerous, something actually undermining, which often stands in most vivid contrast to the gentle benevolence of conscious- ness. So long as the individual is not too aloof from the object, the unconscious intuition effects a wholesome compensation to the rather fantastic and over credulous attitude of consciousness." Ne as explained by an ENTP... “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!” ― Hunter S.

To completely go into a belief system or completely reject it, I can't do that. I would love to understand how that is possible. I end up being agnostic, open to whatever is or is not out there

As an INTJ, I have a friend that’s an ENTP and I can only take them for so long before I’m like “okay, need a break from going in circles for the sake of it”. As an INTJ, going in circles for the sake of mental sparring isn’t interesting after a certain point. Often I find they like to straddle the philosophical line and that’s fine but after a point it just comes off as wishy washy to an INTJ (and we’re anything but wishy washy when it comes to a point we’re trying to make). We don’t ‘debate’ for debating sake like they do. And if we start to get the notion they’re just disagreeing to be contradictory with no real point or stance that will get on our nerves and I know for me I just mentally disengage as it being a waste of my time and mental energy. And INTJs *HATE* wasting our time and mental energy so I have to deal with them in doses. Their need to be *seen* is just not an INTJs jam (we literally are the opposite in that respect we could care less to be seen) so it’s a little like grasping for ‘likes’ the way they go about it to me as an INTJ. In general, I do think they’re a cool type but I will say as an INTJ we do have differences that require me to say bye for now...here and there.

We ENTPs tire people out easily. It's not easy to deal with us, especially when we're just 'in the moment'. Of course the point of the wishy washy stuff for us is exploration. We'll eventually find details if we circle back to the same point. It's the most whimsical thing about us. Everything else is fairly Machiavellian. Of course I'v chosen something, that's easy. It's almost too easy. I find that part boring. After a long while you see patterns, and can use intuitive and or logical short cuts to cull dozens of options. I think most people view options as a one and done deal. I view it more like a competition, with an open invite for new challengers. There's always a winner, but there's also always a usurper too. I think you getting distance is the smartest move. Even when we can understand a different types, that doesn't make them more enjoyable to be around. I really understand why people find us annoying, mean, rambley, ect....but it doesn't automatically change my persona. I'm still gonna be me, I may mute those qualities if I can sense it's driving another batty. But that's about it.

So, saying that choosing a given option is too easy is not a correct assessment. You have to know who is making the choice and why.

We don't debate "for no reason". We debate because we want you to prove us wrong. People beliefs are partially based on unconscious biases. If we see things that you can't(and we do), we need to make sure that you can justify your stance. If your belief stands up to scrutiny, then we might consider adopting your position. We will do more research to reload and make another pass at attempting to shoot your beliefs down. Nothing personal.

Dawn Hodges...well that’s not surprising, but what *IS surprising* to me as an INTJ is that you somehow thought you were being ‘clever’ by saying how small of an attention span you ENTPs apparently have 🤷🏽‍♀️ And this ladies and gentlemen is why I (and I suspect many INTJs) have to take a break from ENTs (both P & J) in general because they always seem to think they’re more clever than they actually are 😏

“And worry that they won’t ever stand for anything” That hit home really hard. I keep on evolving, changing my perspectives and I can’t sit still, physically but especially mentally, I can’t settle for anything. I like it, but it makes me feel alien, and it makes it hard to stand for anything.

very accurate... and helpful, thanks again! Suffocating feeling can appear when I seemingly lose options or need to do compulsory down-to-earth basic s.../things. Also, there's fear that I'm not aware of some very straightforward physical detail, so I usually call my friends to explain/show them what I want and ask them if I overlooked something obvious. (Once I was calling someone on my mobile phone, telling that I'm not sure I can call later since I don't find my phone...) But the biggest fear is, what if I can't even stick to things that are important to me. There are times when I live by a different "code" than other times. Audience, also yes.

Often I think I've mistyped myself with entj but after studying more on the mbti I noticed I'm more of an entp than entj, because of this I spent weeks in home scrutinizing on exactly what type I have, guess I didn't like being unauthentic. Now Im sure that my type is entp and this video relates to me more.

You're are freaking amazing and I always relate to your videos so much

Thank you for the video! INFP here and my boyfriend is ENTP. So we argue (he starts 99% of the arguments) and we debate then for 1 hour. It drains me but he loves debating. Whenevr I say something, 90% of the timing, he starts with, "no" - just for the sake of it and making me find arguments to prove him wrong. Also interesting time these days, I ve observed his behaviour and we dont manage lockdown the same way.

I believe that the fear of being disliked is tied to the fear of being limited. I try to keep everyone I come across happy, not because I care about them, but what they may be able to provide in the future. It's a form of keeping social options open. I also 100% agree with the performer theory. The irony of being a mental performer, at least in my experience, is that it's easy to confuse and push people away because of the mental gymnastics.

Thanks for the video! I’m an INTP, but I identified with the fascination for other people believing things “just because”. Can you do a comparison video of INTP/ENTP? I really enjoyed your commentary on how they tend to orient themselves towards each function. Thanks again!

Such a good description! Incredibly applicable to me. Loved it (ENTPA)

Holy cannoli, I've always loved your videos but this one influenced my opinion about mbti more than maybe any other video I've seen so far... The thing is that I've been interested in mbti for close to 2 years now, but I've been struggling with typing myself, _a lot._ I blame the combination of my mental issues and all the (often contradictory) information online, but for the longest time I would always get INTJ, ENTP or ENTJ as a result (a bit absurd, I know, but I'm almost 50/50 on the J/P axis and only slightly extroverted). And if I go function by function, I relate to the descriptions of xNTJ's function stack way better. But then I see the descriptions of ENTPs as whole and... yep, I totally see the resemblance. And every single thing (not exaggerating) you said in this video really hit home for me. That thing about being a chameleon - sometimes it feels like I'm a completely different person on/off work etc. And the thing about being scared of how far can you go in the (moral) adaptability - ever since I was a child I remember instinctively knowing that if I wanted to and the situation called for it, I could do almost anything, including some bad stuff, and that idea terrified me and made me extra careful in making sure that I never become an asshole. Damn... Sorry for venting, but this video is really some eye opening stuff for me. So long story short, thanks for making me simultaneously more confused and clearer about mbti than ever, and giving me yet another thing to obsess over during this quarantine 👍

These are just stereotypes and don't necessarily reflect all ENTPs. If you want to really understand mbti and your type you need to become fully immersed in the cognitive functions and how they work in conjunction with each other.

@@micahgmiranda You're right, but this is exactly what has been the problem for me. When I go by functions, I see myself in the descriptions of xNTJ's function stack, but when I go by descriptions of the types as whole, ENTP starts seeming like a very close match. Example of what I mean - they say that Te users are more objective in their logic (duh...), are more likely to use facts and objectively true statements to support their arguments, are more efficiency oriented, and can become pretty blunt/bossy, always giving people practical advice on how to enhance life... whereas Ti goes deeper, cares about fewer topics, but is interested in mastering them + also mainly cares about what the user thinks of something, not what people in general think. When I think of my thought process here, especially compared to how my family members act, I fairly neatly match with the description of Te. Except... ENTPs use Ti and they aren't limited to a few areas of interest, quite the opposite, I would assume that as NTs, their advice will also be more practical than emotional, and since they crave the approval of others they will also at least somewhat care about efficiency... This is what's tripping me up. I get that the functions always more or less balance each other out - Ne opens up more options for the more close-minded Ti, whereas Ni helps pick up the "right" pattern from the vast amount of various information that Te collects, etc. Doesn't that seem fairly similar at the end of the day? Or another conundrum - I show emotions easily, though humor, mimics, gestures, the tone of my voice etc. Yet I generally prefer my inner sense of morality over just shared values. _Aaand_ at the same time I'm a slut for praise and being valued by the group. What does that make me (besides insecure)? :D I feel like in some ways, I'm almost _too_ immersed in functions nowadays, almost to the point of drowning...

You are exactly right about the not necessarily being liked part, however exactly you said it. When I was in school there was a person who admired my skill with words, bravado, etc. very much. They did not like me even a little bit. They enjoyed me and I enjoyed them and they would have gladly been my assistant in taking over the world and we both knew it, and we both knew it would be because they were under the impression that they could then kill me and take over after I'd done all the hard work and I was under the absolute certainty that they would be working harder and taking more of the blame for everything that happened that people didn't like and then I would "take over" and discard them, if taking over the world was something I wanted to do in the first place.I really miss that person. They really saw my potential and spurred me on to greater success.

"fear of being unappreciated. they need an audience. the audience is essential", i couldnt agree more. though i will admit i enjoy flaunting my intelligence and nerdiness, no question about it, i do like being appreciated for the times where i am trying to be appropriately smart in a situation and not be a know it all :/ i mean like- pfft that takes effort damn it 🙄 (half joke :> )

Embrace the change I always say or in the current climate embrace the chaos. I find a strange comfort in change. When you mention a desire to pick a colour I agree.

Bro , you’re in my my head. And I like it.

The war between scratching the itch to debate or be confrontational and to be liked and both being the most important thing at different times is a real issue. It is so hard. I am carefree and more likable around strangers. I love traveling for this. I start thinking too much and clam up around people I have to be nice all the time to for the sake of my kiddos.

Your videos are insightful and informative. I enjoy them and you describe and explain very well. Where did you get *most* of your "Type-knowledge"? Do you have a favorite book on the 16 Types?

Very late to this video. I wanted to give my opinion, especially on the part relating to never actually standing behind something, or fully believing in it. Everything is always grey, black & white implies 2 options, which is never enough to justify the logical outcome. I very much enjoy being able to jump over the fence to play on both sides, but I'm always left wondering which one I would ultimately stay on. I have principles & morals, a true sense of right and wrong. But what scares me is starting something when I can already see the end. Finding a "career" is such a struggle due to innately tying my identity to whatever job I decide on. This leads to that inferior Fi, which blocks shaping and understanding one's identiy. Both of these fears you described make up the stagnation I feel ever so much. Either way, great video. I very much appreciate your channel and work 👍

this has been a heartwarming birthday present

Love the closing statement. I have a question do ENTPs also sometimes, get tired of chaos. I am a freelance designer, and sometimes I get pretty annoyed if clients aren't communicating plans and deadlines. Having said that, I also hate having a routine on a day-to-day basis, but I do need a broad albeit loose plan for the month

The fascination with people who just believe in stuff, fantasising about being the same, knowing I’d tire of it. I’ve only noticed these things about myself recently and it’s like you’ve known me all my life. Finding some balance with that is why I think INTJs are the way to go (vs INFJs), unless you have the financial luxury of being a ceaseless identity reinventing artist.
