ENFP OVERVIEW

[@sweetpea7270]

Any other ENFP’s have excessive anxiety over what they COULD be doing / over not doing ENOUGH? (Like constant *FOMO* )

[@runawaysheetghost2715]

yea, like a ton lmfao. i try getting myself occupied in other things so i can tell myself "look, you arent missing out bro youre literally doing enough, its ok"

[@yermiakurniawan4571]

Yo ENFP fellows, are there any of you having that one fantasy world in mind for years (maybe for a lifetime)? I have one, a world i usually think about before sleeping. A world where I am a swordmaster saving the world from attack of monsters and having dragon armies as my subordinates. LOL

[@blazingbunny2976]

I used to have one. I was a goddess who made a planet and according to a notebook became an alien in this dimension after throwing herself into a black hole after her planet was destroyed by the sun blowing up. Whenever I continue the story I feel deeply calmed. The stories are so strange I go back and forth about whether they're even about me. I've felt like I died on an alien sun. Thanks to your post I think I know how it continues! I also attribute a lot of personal meaning to dreams. Unlike real life I usually have a mission and am almost always free to explore. So I try to infer about what I should really be doing with my life through them. Not always the best strategy...but my brain probably had to put explore and the leadership one in some part of the car even if the world didn't like them.

[@seanhaskell2248]

Did you create yourself a world map too? That has specific provinces cultures religions, population population density several different races etc. if so, then yes lol

[@lordraiden1]

This is how I go to sleep every night. It's silly but I always pretend I'm a Super Saiyan living in a world full of vampires. Always find it interesting to measure the dynamic between the two lol

[@libralux1563]

my fantasy world usually is stimulated by what I do or like at that moment example like a game or some sort. I'll either make it like I am the hero or either ill continue the story my own way or even the feeling being in that game as helping the hero. example: Detroit Become Human (a game), Lily (song) and Harry Potter by a teenager Enfp

[@chony93]

Since I have use of imagination. I have 5 stories actually, all of them with characters(I know their names) and skills. At some point I decided to connect 4 of these stories into one, the other story is kinda difficult to connect. I also have like 4 more stories that are way less serious, I only have like the pilot, I haven't invested time into these 4 stories. I started to create my first serious story when I was 12, it was during a 4 hours trip, I needed my mind to go somewhere.

I’m an ENFP I’m a pilot I love this job, social, adventure and cero routine it’s pretty cool

[@alexismattson7883]

I will rewatch this video when I am stressed or feeling hopeless. I have been feeling the need to push myself harder in fully embracing myself an ENFP and stop being so afraid to be myself. I think I have been for a long time as I'm afraid to not being accepted by the people I am willing to accept as they are. I feel like I'm performing all the time. My goal is to always make others feel better about themselves than how I feel about myself every day. Being an ENFP is the best. I feel good about myself as a person but has struggled in believing in my power and ability to change myself and the world. I will, I fear how long it will take.

[@BreezeofBliss]

Great strategy to rewatch this vid or read info on the ENFP to give yourself the much needed pep talk when you're stressed, depressed, or hopeless. ENFPs are some of the best people around if not the best. Don't just remind yourself how great you are but take the time to analyze yourself and pinpoint the wonderful things about you that you really like. Something like "I have a great sense of humor" or "I'm such a loving and accepting person and I deserve that same love and acceptance." Look, we can't make others like us but we control who we like so like yourself, in fact love yourself. You're awesome! The more you love and appreciate yourself, the more confident you become, the more focused you become on doing the things you want to and you will not need other people's approval, acceptance, or love for you to do the things you need & want to do. You'll be unstoppable. You deserve that.

[@kiwimaracuia9834]

Oh my when I listened to the part of the three year old, I felt really understood for the first time in a long time, because people around me don't want to see that part of me and overlook that I am truly considering becoming a con artist or taking my life when things don't turn out in my favour... It is fatalistic to be an ENFP in crisis

[@Hi-ov5nj]

I almost pooped on the floor in excitement over the usefulness this has to me :D thank you!

[@bellaeastwood4292]

I’m an ENTJ (INTJs cousin we have the exact same functions just different order) who dated an ENFP for a very long time and have had many ENFP friends. I will say you guys are EXTREMELY likeable. I have Ni as my second function so I love your intuitive nature. You guys have good ideas too and it’s very fun to go on these abstract mental adventures with you guys. I do have some constructive criticism to give, (assuming you’re an ENFP) so maybe you can work on this. As a dominant Te user, logic is my way of life (same with INTJs btw). My problem with the ENFP is it’s not possible to reason with logic. You guys just don’t respond to it no matter how hard I try to break it down. You guys will just do whatever the hell you feel like doing, and then you find yourself at 35 years old and still having done nothing with your lives (sorry if that’s a rude wake up call). The problem is you don’t listen to peoples advice no matter how much sense it makes. You’re more concerned with having fun and socializing that you avoid taking on any responsibility or boring tasks that bring you closer to your goals. Fortunately you’re very likable so you can pretty much just get other people to help you with the hard stuff, but how far can you really go if you never feel like taking on the workload? Of course it’s uncomfortable working on the process and I understand that being a low Se user definitely doesn’t make it easier for you, but you NEED to focus and work on that. Your functions are like a muscle and they will become stronger the more you use them. There’s much more to life then just shooting the shit with your friends and wasting all your time accomplishing nothing. Pick out a ONE goal, and work on it RELENTLESSLY. I know you guys have a new goal every week but really try to pick the most important one (buying a house, building a business, finishing school, learning a language, starting a KZbin channel, etc). Quit chasing after fun all the time and go accomplish at least one thing and I promise you will feel so proud of yourself. You can start with working 10 minutes a day on your goal and slowly work your way up. The key is to be CONSISTENT and to do it every. Single. Day. With no excuses like oh I’m hungover, or oh I have to go to a party soon, or oh I actually my dog needs a bath. Just focus on your goal, and work until you’ve reached it. Quit fucking around.

[@MilitaryHistoryMadeEasy]

Thanks; needed to hear this. Hope you have a great day.

[@austejaplunge924]

Thanks for describing my life!:D i hope it is not too late to kick my ass and start on 1 goal, and not 100, and ending up 0;D

Very very very informative webinar. Thank you for saying ENFPs are rare. I always had a nagging feeling that we must be at least semi-rare.

[@PanteraRosa91]

We are, I can assure this because I have met lots of people from different countries during all this years and none of them had my energy, positivity or my artistic concerns. Speaking plainly, ENFPs never go unnoticed. People often define me as a "little girl in an adult body". I love to patiently listen to people and help/motivate them, so I attract them like a magnet. However, being an ENFP comes with negatives as well (like to be a disaster at organizing daily tasks etc)

[@Dagnus284]

Does anyone identify with a different type of ENFP? For example, I think my mind is so exploratory and knows so much about what I don’t know that I get paralyzed by decision making and I sometimes stifle my authenticity because I don’t always trust my intuition. It’s like I have a million thoughts and instincts bouncing through my mind at every moment but I’m slow to begin a thought verbally and I audibly think through that maze in my sentence structure because I’m playing through all the options as I go. Through this process of over analysis I actually am indecisive and slow to move to novelty because I’m afraid I could be wrong. I’m afraid of change because there are so many ways I could choose wrong that I choose not to choose. I’ve taken at least three tests and I always get ENFP but I think I cloud it with rationality and the “effectiveness” back seat driver because I’ve gotten burned using my authenticity and pure intuition. A defense mechanism if you will

[@bellyfulochelly4222]

Yes. What you describe is what happens to me whenever I'm "off.". For me, these seasons can last months or even years. I'm here to figure out how to avoid falling into these traps. Feels like such a waste of large chunks of my life.

[@tralala4200]

Yes, I’m exactly like that 😬 I think it’s the flip side (cf. YT:7 weaknesses of ENFP )and apparently we can be master procrastinators and have problems with follow through... I could go on and on, but I think “Bellyfull” ‘s comment is helpful and expressed so succinctly.

[@andrewrojas1543]

bro you don’t understand how much it means to me to see that I am not the only one who struggles through this. Lately ive felt lost in my mind, never able to settle on anything. Everyone just says im overthinking but when i don’t im too impulsive to try new things and i get burned. Ive been so reluctant and scared even to make small commitments to things. Its like my mind is at odds over what i want and what i should constantly and it makes me SO indecisive. Ive been slowly recovering from what ever got me in this rut but im still not fully clear yet. Being able to connect with like minded individuals sincerely comforts me.

A tip for anyone who wants to be able to access their inferior Si as an ENFP. Try axis Si through Fi, so you're in a kind of Si-Fi mode, for me this may be a colouring app on my phone, putting on a candle, or making my bed. Just anything that triggers my internal values of aesthetics, but also stimulates my senses

[@nadinerick1182]

Yes, reorganizing something helps great with the procrastination issues that Si can potentially solve. Like, not only putting your clothes away, but sorting them for colours, or reorganizing the fridge when you gotta clean it anyway.

[@blazingbunny2976]

Gosh can you make sure to share this with psychology professionals and teachers. People have thought I'm crazy for every part of this. I've literally heard the phrase born mentally ill. If I had known this I might've not destroyed myself more attempting to meet ideals of others. The first time I went to a therapist I was in that 3 year old mode. Kept saying I was "afraid of failure." Just like that uncomfortable state described here. He didn't even accept that as true nevermind try to comfort me. According to your chart that's my natural bottom. Probably would've been better off playing Zelda, eating popcorn, and chocolate milk than anyone trying to dig deeper for pain. But you find it if you blow up the car. I'm patronized for truly caring about others, my desire for newness is seen as weakness or insanity. I'm a psychopath if I try to take care of myself. Even financial difficulty is part of bipolar. Hell my mom even wants to get rid of physical memories like vhs tapes and my journals. I used to read old birthday cards too. I thought I was weird for doing that. But now it makes perfect sense. I'm gonna screenshot that car slide and use it to validate my existence holy moly.....why didn't I learn this in psych 101...or like health class.

Thank you so much for this video. I stumbled upon it when I searched ENFP. I've known I was and ENFP for a decade, and have read about it, watched videos, took various versions of the test online from the official to simple. But your video has probably been the most useful to me at this exact point in my life. The way you broke down the four different functions was the first time I ever really understood it well. It also opened my eyes to why I think and feel the way I do, during an emotionally abusive relationship that I left, how my authenticity was taken advantage of and how I ended up relying way too much in the memory or 3 year old space, which has been really rough. I burned out from routine type job stress and allowing others to almost stomp out my exploration driver. I now understand what I went through better and myself more. Now I can better work to become my enthusiastic empathetic curious ENFP self again. Thank you so much.

By the way you described my big difficulties when I have to choose something in too many possibilities , it's a kind of torture to me and in that t time I'm waiting that the life send to me an opportunity of some kind!

[@joeyortega]

Antonia..... thank you for this. Brought so much perspective to my life.

[@MymmyShorts]

Oh my God ...that is the best explanation I have ever seen...thank you so much

[@fouss1608]

Lmao, I learnt that keeping a journal is the best thing I've ever landed on, strongly recommend.

[@fouss1608]

I learnt the importance of money when somebody I cared about depended on how I managed our money, and then I kept it through the need of it, to fulfill interesting things like activism, startups and what not, stuff that usually involved a lot of people I couldn't afford disappointing.

[@emarin7336]

what do you generally write in your journal like only positive things or both positive and negative , whole day from a to z or just important one??

[@layedout447]

Damn I love that part “you where the best employee ever for 3 to 6 months” yea I was now I don’t care just a cheque at this point

[@nellyk.5155]

Beautifully explained! Everything you brought up resonated so well. Thank you for this

[@katie4667]

Be careful.. that's demonic.

[@lucaslyra2275]

You helped me to understand myself a lot.. you have my gratitude for your kind availability in doing this for people.

[@ris4430]

OMG THANKYOU SO SO MUCH FOR THIS, IT WILL HELPS ME A LOT, BLESS U

[@umsrum]

That part where she said you have so many things you want to champion you can't choose one is my problem. I get lost and overwhelmed and emotional with it all that i try and push it away because i can't fix it all. I never thought to just choose 1

[@helty4042]

it is almost like you described the whole pattern of my life and it even might sound like i am bipolar, but i just always either very exited about my life or at my bad times i feel like i don't have a clue how to continue my life, like i lost all of my options and tried everything i could so i start to destruct it purposely even more) but most of the times i love my life because of all the possibilities it gives me! and if i achieve something i only savor it for a really short time and then i want more hahaha, now i think i should be more grateful for what i have!

[@TylerO_O.]

I started reading some Jung and fell into this fascinating rabbit hole 🐇 🕳️. ... My curiosity takes me the craziest places. I'm glad I found the Myers Briggs this understanding will aid me in my pursuits.

[@davearvelo]

Thank you so much for the encouragement and inspiration from this talk/presentation! It's tough as an ENFP to keep focused and on task when our vision drives us into having to commit to the details, but hearing that we have important ideas and gifts to bring to the world makes it easier to stay on track. Thank you again!

[@kathrynjames1539]

Best summary ever. I’ve never felt so understood!!

[@kevlarstargate4365]

Cool, so we're bards, complete with our bardic inspiration.

[@sarahh1656]

What's funny is that my ancestors in Scotland are descended from bards. My dad's really into genealogy.

[@Last_Respecter]

Leaving a legacy in fashion has been one of my life goals for some time now, to hear you say what you did around 18:26, was like 😧

[@SunnytheWeim]

Spot on. This is the best on our type.

[@irissaligumba6548]

thanks.💖 I just loved how ENFPs are explained in this video. ❤️❤️❤️ i had my shadow came out last December and struggling and balancing everything the best way I can... sadly the breakout of allergic reaction is in place again now after a while (physically) but I know it will heal as well. 👆🙏❤️

[@jeffkennedy1888]

As an INTP, I find myself intensely drawn to the ENFP personality type, so I’ve been searching out explanatory videos about the ENFP personality. Your video is the best that I have found. That said, I’m puzzled that you don’t seem to have any videos on other Myers-Briggs personality types. Have you produced any other videos on MBTI types. I’d love to hear your analysis of the INTP type.

[@robdeneen9632]

Great video, wonderfully insightful and informative!

[@purposedrivenscott]

Profound! Well be researched and life applicable - with inclusion of exceptions!

[@sechale]

Great explanations, thanks! Especially of Te and Si. Had an ACE (Adverse Childhood Experience) score of 9/10 leaving childhood and my survival mode was often in control. Si has been the underpinning of my life for ... at least 10 years, to a certain extent for 25 years. I chose an Si job, in a kind of Ne field. Became tunnel-vision obsessed with moving 4,000 miles away (not necessarily a bad move), and spent 10 years getting a work permit and applying for citizenship in another country. I don't regret it, but it was EXTREMELY stressful for a long time.

[@rachelk4805]

I was gonna ask her to do a video going into this in more detail. I am an ENFP, but I also have ptsd, and I feel...not like I was.

[@10kchallange94]

+1 cptsd from ACE

[@ellelove3075]

Im now floating in the outor space looking waiting for the path to get back in ~(depression /numb /boreden )waiting for the earth turning my way, I find nothing intriguing inspiring ~flame is about to extingquish

[@thesoundsofearth4454]

I hope the light comes again soon Elle,

[@aviator1787]

any other ENFPs here who used to think they were an INFP because they aren’t a “typical extrovert”?

[@ryutak777]

I do have problems with commitment as in because I either commit too much or way too little. When I entered the workforce for the first time I voluntarily put project upon project and I ended up working almost 100 hours a week. It was just simply unsustainable.

[@HellaRandomVideos]

Choose love, breathe in gratitude, and hope without expectations. 🙏

[@frankmyka1733]

Crazy accurate! Thank you for this!

[@achilleaben4761]

Really helped me understand what I'm going through. Been in chronic stress over the past few years had depression and still lost. So the three years old been taking the wheel this whole time explains why. But how do I go out of it I'm still figuring that out.

[@amandadavies0207]

Thank you so much! What a wonderful video! 🥰 Absolutely loved those last few lines!

[@petermaniatis4584]

What an amazing description - the best I have listened to. Thank you

[@CognitionHardTrance]

This information is crazy accurate! WOW! I'm blown away right now. Thank you so very much. I learned a lot. I feel I've been stripped naked for everyone to see haha!

[@Lybido]

The one about trying not to become a manipulative con-artist definitely punched me in the chest. Sadly I have used my mastery of people to get some things I've wanted, especially in former relationships.

[@Emmparker155]

I’m an ENFP who’s lost. I don’t even know anymore

[@baptm727]

One way to know, if you get into the nature and have a strong will burning inside you which tells you to run, jump, scream, laugh, and at the same time get caught in observing the beauty of a three leaf moving with the wind then you are one ahah. Sometimes I can't help myself I just act like a 3 years old amazed by everything. It's ok 😃 Just go with it bitch!

[@projectnostalgia5427]

Same

[@blazingbunny2976]

I think it's hard these days to be an ENFP. I've picked my mission pretty solidly before but it's HARD to change things. Like there's plenty of books, plenty of music, plenty of art. To change things through creative expression I think used to be easier when creative expression was less ...everywhere. It becomes more of a practical problem of how to get around red tape, what would actually be effective etc...these are not strong suites of our type. I found some success in combining things people normally don't. But the internet makes new ideas hard to come up with and hard to spread. It's probably the reason remakes are so popular. Memories are far far more searched on Google than inventions. Staying true to a particular fanbase sounds like my least favorite thing. Robin Williams was an ENFP and probably the closest I had to an idol. He couldn't even live with it. I understand his pain now. I can walk into any American building and think "you know what would improve this? Clowning around." I have literally juggled in a psych hospital to make other PTSD patients laugh. I came up with the idea to make a muppet version of those places to like take the fucking edge off that experience, highlight its absurdities. We need a cancer comedy too. But like...where....do you go....with that kind of thinking? I bring up wanting to be a comedian and I'm treated exactly like the Joker movie. Told I'm not funny and then feel abysmal. I also wanted to help kids away from depression but there's not an official position in society for that which does it ethically (in my opinion). I can't stand jobs that aren't ethical. Plus these days it's super hard to be around kids at all without background checks and actually being paid. Another part of society I find abhorrent is prison but the gentle ways I've thought of remedying someone's torture is seen as dangerous. It's been almost impossible to find a way through to enacting kindness without people easily dismissing you with a word not knowing it's crushing your world.

[@cynthiag.5048]

😩 I feel this spiritually

[@chickentikka7890]

I was the same until I turned to Jesus Christ. Find the truth

[@Lucas-eh6xr]

I am truly grateful. Great Overview!

[@trklsswndr]

Very Spot On ~ If I had seen this some years back...Such a misunderstood/conflicted personality type. This is probably the BEST verbalized interpretation that I have ever heard...

[@HebelDan]

Choosing core values is detrimental for our manipulation, our free choice, to be good

[@davidcripps3011]

What I've gained from learning that I'm an ENFP isn't what I'm about but understanding my failings/weaknesses and has given me a way to counterbalance them
