How to Find Your Calling as an INFJ: 5 Questions To Ask

INFJs are an amazing group of people with a great deal of potential. Inside each one of us is often a deep desire to pursue our passions in such a way that it helps the world. However, some of us get stuck in a rut along the way. In this video, I give a few ideas for INFJs on how to find their passion or calling.

    I guess us, INFJ, love to use 'we' when presenting something, because the credit for what we said is not for us alone. Like when I was presenting my team's work when I was in college, I almost never use the word "I" because we work on it together. As well as, while mentioning INFJ, I too mostly use 'we' as the title is not for me alone to own.

    I don’t think its actually failure to launch really. I think it is more so, continuing in life until you reach that point you are able to launch. We need to understand a point will come where we can launch and begin to help others, but it happens when life decides, not when we decide. We only continue to follow our path until we launch. At that point there is happiness for us as well as everyone we interact with. It’s such a beautiful feeling.

But I do have unfair advantages like being going at speaking English despite being a first generation immigrant, and I always get complemented on my face. I don’t enjoy cleaning but I’m quite good at it because I was forced to do chores in my adolescence and teenage-hood. I wish I could go back 20 years and tell me younger self that my mother is a narcissist and that there’s nothing I can do to help her.

    As an INFJ, only 2-3 minutes into this video, I already find it sooooo relatable. This is exactly me and what I'm going through. I totally understand everything that you are talking about. I always feel the need to find a goal or purpose in my life. However, as an INFJ, I have too many things going on in my mind but I did not do any of it so I always end up with this feeling of 'I'm trapped' and I don't know what to do. 😢 Edit: After watching your video, I feel so much better to know that I am not alone. I'm so glad that there are other INFJs who understand us. Thanks so much for the video! Will try to start thinking about that 5 questions seriously.

    Thank you, Clay! I just found out yesterday that I am an INFJ. This is like all my puzzles came together and made a complete picture. I am drawing/painting all my life, but always thought it is "ok", nothing special...anyone can do it)). I was traveling through Canada from Winnipeg to Vancouver and stayed for two weeks in Kelowna. I met one elderly lady from St. Pius church, she looked at my art on Instagram and ordered a portrait of her daughter's dog...another one ordered a print of my art, another bought a Feng Shui art from me, BUT this didn't convince me that I do something special...it was always just another painting. I even felt surprised that people like it, want to have it, say something like "you are such a talented artist"...I always thought they say so because of being my friends or being polite Canadians)). Now by listening to this video I realized that it is something more valuable than I thought before. Probably I will make something commercial with my art and see how it will work out). You motivated me because you speak as an advanced business version of myself...it is so cool!

    I work best alone when success or failure falls on my shoulders. Working for someone was always difficult, if someone showed any lack of ethics or fell into the profit trap solely I would be turned off immediately. I found my happy place as a real estate and vacation rental photographer. I communicate in emails and texts mostly so light contact there and then I go into empty houses and do my job and leave. When I was younger I worked in customer service management jobs and healthcare. I couldn't imagine myself there now and would be very unhappy. As a side job, I also babysit for single moms and I am able to be home with my young daughter while making a little money helping others in that way. During winter when my photography job is less abundant, I clean the house for a large vaca rental where again the house is empty and I can do my thing in peace. Sometimes on the days, I stay in the house day after day, I can get less productive but it works. I am good at everything I do, in every job position I gained responsibility and authority quickly. I know now in my 40s that no matter what happens in life I can adapt and survive based on my adaptability and quick learning.

    As an INFJ who can completely envision a future of my design, and completely build that future in my mind... in many ways it’s already built, and I know I could build it and that reality is enough, so I don’t do it. BUT, when something is so powerful within me that I cannot not do it; those projects are truly mind blowing!

    Clay, I love your videos so much, you do this very well. We have similar stories - I also loved music (used to carry my handheld recorder around as a child, recording songs and sounds) and photography from a young age, went to graduate school for documentary film, and have a knack for building websites. I actually signed up for SiteSell after your first video, built out a site, and then let it fizzle because of my perfectionistic tendencies which kept me from writing the content. I'm going to try again with a different niche as I found the program to be very valuable.... totally relate on the narcissist front as well. That's the first thing I thought of when you asked what we'd learned in the last few years that we wished our younger selves had known. You gave me a lot to think about with this video, love your clear presentation and thoughtful content. Spoken like a true INFJ. Thank you

    Your videos are so interesting, I watched this one all the way through twice. I feel like you are talking directly to me with the examples that you choose! I think business would be a cool topic, but really anything that is of interest to you would be good imo. I'm doing 3d animation and digital painting and I see a lot of crossover between what you were saying about your documentary films and perfectionism. Even before discovering your channel I was doing some math about how many animations and pieces of art I was producing and I could see that I wasn't producing nearly enough, a lot of times due to perfectionism, and feeling like, I don't know enough yet... about anatomy, or perspective etc. So now I try to keep telling myself to produce content, I even tried setting some deadlines for myself which I found pretty helpful. I definitely want to check out "The War of Art", I've heard it mentioned in a few different videos already. :)

    Well Clay, I want you to know that I personally love your videos. It was great to hear how they fit into your sense of purpose. Thank you. I’m glad you have given up the perfection aspect a little so that you can get out more content. These videos are also perfect in their own right bc they are a different type of video than your documentary pieces. Also, I just wanted to thank you for your insight into INFJ. I am an INFJ, it’s a struggle to understand self sometimes much less get other people to understand you. You have a way of explaining things that just... nails it. Keep up the good work.

    1. My Unfair advantage ? ° I remember my friends say im good at decoration ideas. (Event organiser) °Good at understanding ppl and giving them advice.( Councelling) 2. What I love to do? ° I love traveling and I love talking about the place and describe the feeling the scene. ° I always loved coffee and I wanted to become a barista. ° I love cooking ° Obviously photography ° Gardening ° Making new friends I love talking to different mindset of ppl their deepist thoughts. 3. How can I help ppl? ° That's at top for infjs helping others. ° I believe that now days ppl want to be heard ppl want to loved and recognised. So I would love to be that kind of a person who can embrace ppl in need. 4. Any information I have now I wish I had when I was young? ° YES! KZread I wish had these kinda vids that could tell me I'm not alone and I'm normal. I really feel Jealous for this generation kids growing youths that they have so so so many information filled in internet and so many free skills to learn. I really wish I had this back than so I could figure out what I actually wanted to do with my life. ° The skill of awareness I would like to give this to my younger self. ° And yes obviously boundaries I really wish I knew that word back then so I could get less hurt. 5. One of the complicated work I can make it easy? ° I remember teaching my fellow frnd science and mathematics formula like he couldn't remember which formula applies where, For example- He love cars so I named the formulas according to each car and the value the car holds in his mind.
