ENTJ vs INTJ

[@karenl.8480]

"ENTJs might not even view themselves as extroverts." Hitting the nail on the head! ENTJ here and that's exactly how I feel. I actually feel like I'm more of an introvert in my personal life and only switch to my extroverted side for work or socializing.

The more I watch ENTJ vs INTJ videos the more I realize I am indeed an ENTJ. I am more active and run multiple projects at once, always working on something.

[@Sara-324]

Thanks for making this!! The childhood Te behavior, more initiation, and more "experimental" fashion sense stuff helped me figure that I'm an ENTJ, not an INTJ, even though I sometimes act more reserved (unlike the typical extrovert stereotype) and test as an INTJ on online tests. This is by far the most helpful ENTJ vs INTJ video I've watched!

[@AlexisKingsley]

Thank you Sara!!

[@natanmouradeaquino]

ENTJ/INTJ are great examples of growth for eachother because of that flipped Ni/Te in the first two slots... just seeing an ENTJ doing Te full throttle is usually enough to kick mine into gear :)

As a kid i preferred playing alone and i was a very very quite child. I also had a massive absence of Se in my life, until i realized its important to me and made it my goal. Even though its not easy i have massively improved in that area. Leadership and managing people is not my favourite thing in the world, but i am more efficient than most in it.

[@sash8099]

Entjs when they are young can often be quite introverted because they are in their Isfp subconscious. As they get to high school or college that's when Te really kicks in and they become the over achievers they are. It's common, while you are growing up, to be stuck in your subconscious or unconscious depending on your development and environment. So that young they may not seem like an Entj at first.

[@intj1782]

I actually think I was an Introverted when younger, but I feel my dominant side have started kicking in recently. Every test resulted in me being an ENTJ. I also dominant and lead even if I didn't mean to, but this changes happened recently. I am confused if I am really an INTJ or ENTJ. I am still young anyways. I can relate with every ENTJ video or article, but I can also relate with every INTJ stuff.

[@sash8099]

@@intj1782 Ni makes high Ni users appear introverted unless they develop their Se. Figure out your PoLR function and inferior function. That way you will know which type you are. Entj PoLR function is Si while Fi is their inferior function. Also Entjs are good at Fe, that's how they network, unlike Intjs who really suck at it since it's their PoLR function.

[@intj1782]

@@sash8099 I watched one more video on ENTJ vs INTJ and got complete clarity about what actually happened to me. I came to know that both ENTJ and INTJ have the same cognitive functions but are arranged in different orders. So whenever an ENTJ starts developing himself and getting mature overtime, he may start developing his introverted functions and it will be almost impossible for anyone to distinguish between him and an INTJ. Similar thing happens with an INTJ, INTJ doesn't actually prefer to be in the spotlight but have the capability to lead, but they don't have these leadership skills developed when they are younger. As time passes and they mature overtime, they will start developing their extroverted functions. Note: INTJ will try/start developing these extroverted traits if and only if someone tells him to do so or something major happens in his life that made him feel he should not feel so introverted. That's exactly what happened with me 6-8 months prior, a major incident happened (I don't want to share that, it's a little bit personal), and I felt the need to develop my extroverted skills and over time when I came to know about the MBTI test I scored ENTJ. And when I started searching on KZbin what does that actually means I came up with one more personality type, INTJ, which I can relate with. That got me confused if I am ENTJ or INTJ. So I can now conclude that I am a healthy mature INTJ with all cognitive functions (not sure about all but extroverted functions I think) well developed .

[@sash8099]

@@intj1782 It's good that you've managed to figure it out. To be honest to me Entj and Intj aren't that similar. Sure all NTs share similarities but their priorities and ways to take action differ. If I get to know them just by observing I can tell the difference but perhaps it's harder for them since they don't have the birds eye view I have.

[@intj1782]

@@sash8099 My every MBTI test resulted in me being ENTJ, tried several different websites but still the same. Strange thing is I can literally be dominant and leading as well as analytic & strategic. People says, INTJ asks "why" and ENTJ asks "what". But I do both. I actually think I have developed my extravert traits recently. Anyways, I should not bother who am I, better to stay focused on my goal. Best of luck for your future brother.

On clothing color: My mother (who is ENTJ by my best guess) had to convince me, an INTJ, that wearing all black most days and gray w/black the others was very depressing. I hadn't even realized how much I wore black and gray and loose T-shirts and jeans/sweats every day, very dark navy shirts at my "most colorful") until she pointed it out; even then I didn't see the problem with it for quite awhile. Meanwhile she likes wearing BRIGHT CHERRY RED, bright white, Pepto-Bismol pink, bright turquoise and very bold flashy styles. Never dawned on me that this could be a Te dom thing!

[@xxx.00o16]

"entj don't see themselves as extroverts" bro That's what I always say, which confused me, I'm entj but I'm not that extroverted around people because I don't know how to deal with them, most of them are emotional or very introverted, my extroverted side shows when there is a group that is lost and needs to be organized to do something important I will jump between them immediately, but I am bad at communication and I prefer to focus on practical plans and important things and "things" in general more than" people" I was also in childhood doing a lot of things to fill my day and not stay in the same place for a long time and I was so controlling that it caused me problems That's what made me use Ni from a young age to think more before getting into anything that involves people and not just things to deal with. I'm glad to find this channel. It's really great and I liked the convergence of ideas between me and you, after all, entj and intj are very similar in way of thinking but they often differ in behavior. Thanks for this video he assured me that I'am an entj .

This is incredible! I can’t begin to cover all the light shed on my childhood with my ENTJ mother. So much spot on. The only thing I would say differently is INTJs don’t have all the eggs in one basket. There is plan A, A1, A2, B, B1, etc. So much insight into my mother is greatly appreciated. And I hadn’t come across the functions arising in childhood. Truly interesting. And again the details of dress and movement, etc are astonishingly accurate. Thanks. 💙

[@homehome5220]

As an INTJ I think I have some ENTJ traits or aspirations, but I always fall back in my crazy. I try to get out and do stuff but end up with 10 unfinished projects and no energy to do any of them. I take on alot of projects at work and then worry all day that I'm not going to finish them and then realize I have wasted hours on thinking about the ramifications of not finishing them. Ppl at work love me and always want to talk and see what ideas I have, it burns me out so fast. I walk fast, work fast, learn fast, burn fast. I wear different shades of dark colors with white for pop. My favorite color is red, has been from early childhood but as an accent color like with black. So all that said I guess I'm just an INTJ after all.

My every MBTI test resulted into me being ENTJ. But I personally think I am an INTJ. Am I both? I am bossy and dominant when I am with others but really an Introvert when I am alone. I think I really turned myself into ENTJ, I used to be INTJ. Ahhhh, confused. I conclude I am the mixture of both (ENTJ and INTJ). Edit: So I watched one more video on ENTJ vs INTJ and got complete clarity about what actually happened to me.

[@sandramargolis]

I'm ENFP and I know an ENTJ and even though we ReaLLy clicked when we met and we can intellectually connect, I somewhat can't relate with many aspects of who he is. I have an other friend (romantic lover friend) and we get along a LOT ! When I asked him what was is MBTI type, he said "I think I'm an ENTJ" and I said "are you sure you're not an INTJ ?". He said :" could be but I don't remember". I think he's INTJ and that maybe, just like you, he might have got both types mixed as he is a CEO doing "big things" with many responsibilities. I think his very driven parents (he's in his 40s now) might have pushed him to be a very mature INTJ and that's why he might associate with being a ENTJ (a mature one i'm sure). Anyway, maybe swing if you have a lot of ENFP friends that you like, might give you a better idea of if you're INTJ or ENTJ. ENFP & INTJ vs ENFP & ENTJ are quite different relationships from my understanding (also based on what others are saying).

[@emilyacoxpsychic]

You’re an ENTJ like me

[@hany___]

While everything you said is true, the fact of the matter is you need to figure out the order in which you use the cognitive functions, as you already know : *Ni-Te-Fi-Se ➙ INTJ* • Your dominant function is Ni. You make decisions based on your (internal) feeling of what will likely happen in the future. You prefer to minimize the risk of faliure and foresee everything that could likely go wrong. Being Ni > Te, everything you do serves a higher purpose of your singular vision or Ni. • Your auxiliary function is Te. You use your Te in order to make that vision reality, however, your usage of Te is limited to your Ni vision. Te is like a tool you use to build your vision once Ni has finished constructing it. • Your tertiary function is Fi. It may feel underdeveloped since it's in the third slot, but it's there. Fi is concerned with your own internal moral values and doing what you believe is the right thing. Having it in the third slot means you'll be more in tune with your own values and what's truly important to you personally. • Your last function is Se. Your last function also known as the inferior function is the least developed function and usually the one you turn to when under extreme stress. If Se is your last function you'll feel sensitive to oversensory activities, for example the inability to think clearly in a loud environment such as a party. If under extreme stress you see yourself indulge in oversensory activities (bad habits) like gambling, partying, smoking etc. Your last function could be Se. *Te-Ni-Se-Fi ➙ ENTJ* • Your dominant function is Te, this means you prefer to structure, organize and impact the external world, the world around you. You take logical facts from the external world and use them in order to organize and plan for what will likely happen in the future based on the logic you observed. • Your auxiliary function is Ni. Your usage of Ni is merely to keep up with the demands of you dominant Te and to keep the Te busy. Ni is primarily used as a tool to create goals for Te to work towards, being Te > Ni means being more action oriented and worrying less about whether the vision or the plan is perfect, if it's workable it's good enough. • Your tertiary function is Se. In this case Se is used to support the dominant function Te, thanks to Se being in the third slot you are observant and aware of your surroundings, which helps you pick up logical inconsistencies in the external world. • Your last function is Fi. This is probably the only weakness of this type. Fi as the inferior function means that you won't be in touch with your own emotions, you won't pay much attention to the moral values of your actions or what is truly important to you. You likely believe or are the strong believer of the saying "The end justifies the means". You would do whatever it takes to achieve the ends even if it means stepping out of your moral boundaries. This doesn't necessarily mean you'll see people as tools or pawns you can sacrafice for the sake of your goals (although this does apply for the unhealthy types). In the case of a healthy type it means you'll be hesitant, unwilling to conform social norms and / or rules which are illogical, you'll often find loopholes or ways around following these rules while also avoiding the negative consequences. Inferior function is the one you usually turn to under extreme stress, in the case of Fi inferior it will make you look down on others, it can make you underestimate people around you. You are also prone to overthinking situations under the extreme stress. I hope this helped, fellow INFJ

[@Planethead]

Really nice video, definitely confirms for me that I’m an intj (we love impostor syndrome). I don’t know if others experienced this- but as a child I was definitely criticised by both other children and adults for my leading Ni, thus I usually let my Te meet other people on first impression. When I’m in group work for a project or anything I can definitely start to act somewhat like an entj for sure, but during unhealthy times I’ll go into my little intj bubble. Oh and the decision making talk? so freaking relatable. Nothing is more infuriating than when I meticulously plan something and spend so long deciding something based on different situations in my head, and then someone goes, “Well, let’s just do this instead.” It drives me crazy.

Great video. I would switch your description of ENTJ as bolder when it comes to aesthetics and style. INTJ are more fulfilled by originality than an ENTJ is, and as an extrovert they don’t spend enough time on their own to see the utility of developing a personal style. Both types lean toward minimalism and low effort Living but ENTJ are dressing for what they have to dress for, their dress is just the necessary equipment for their external goals.

This is quite a good video, but as with most ENTj related content, it only represents one side of the ENTj which is on the side of the popular stereotype. ( Which is always highly Americanised.) The reality of TeNi efficiency is for many ENTjs is it will look more like laziness to many people, combined with Si PoLR this can become an intense dislike of engaging with the world in any conventional manner whatsoever, which is why the old Socionics nickname for the ENTj is Jack London. Many ESTp's are likewise mistyped as ENTj.

I've also somehow convinced a few people to believe I'm an extrovert (it doesn't come naturally though, I really have to *push* myself out of my comfort zone... meh)

[@crimsonmatter]

NOT THE CONVINCING PART LMAO

[@saraa7164]

Spot on. I am entj

[@brain0nfire]

The number one reason INTJs don't have energy is because they are trying to economize energy. That's good for a machine, but a biological entity gains energy through hypertrophy, lung expansion, brain oxygenation, and so on.

[@abadi173]

do you offer a typing service? if yes i would like to do a one on one debate with you to help me determine my type.

[@AlexisKingsley]

ooh a one on one debate sounds fun! lol yes I do! DM me on instagram - my handle is alexismkingsley

[@wwizer]

Can def relate to having too many things going on at the same time. I like think in terms of concurrent processes running over time. I work from home so I am able to concurrently finish many things within a timespan: work + do laundry + do dishes + get mail etc etc ..

[@saudadae]

4:30 I was confused if I was an intj or an intp..I relate to intj a lot more but I've seen people saying that intj are organised and get things done, so I thought I was an intp (but I don't really relate to intps) as I can't get things done and would procrastinate (I've been procrastinating a lot since I got into severe depression). Now I'm clear :) Btw I'm here to get to know more about intjs.

[@SemanthaJen]

As a little girl, I would often spent the whole afternoon watching ants and trying to find patterns, you know I lured them out with sugar and see where they went and how they find their way home...So definitely Ni I guess. But I would also picture a kingdom of ants where I was the king, well, not the king, there would be a king and I would be the one who's controlling that king. Does that show a little bit of Te as well?

[@_mneon]

I Myself am a ENTJ and My sister is a INTJ.

[@Shimshimiy]

Im an entj with a Intj bestfriend and id say we're a pretty good match. one thing i dont like about intjs is they leave u on read alot and are dry texters and never make any plans

[@neowong2618]

Amazing video!

[@AlexisKingsley]

Thank you!!

[@mbtilover3575]

Just found your video I was thinking you were a entp before reading comments

[@HistoryExplained]

Love your channel, but please consider increasing the volume. I understand how difficult it can be to choose the correct volume because I have the same issues with my videos. I still haven’t mastered it myself and am always afraid of making it too loud. (Max volume has to be borderline uncomfortable to listen to)

[@AlexisKingsley]

Good feedback! Thank you!

[@jaylt5136]

im both entj and intj

[@ara3906]

In 1st difference i relate to the entj In the second one i relate to the intj In the third one i relate to the intj In the fourth one i relate to the intj In the fifth one i relate to the intj So i’m a intj who is really bossy since childhood.... 🙂 But i do have a logjt colour wardrobe well kinda. I mean it all depends on my mood. But i do prefer black, brown and coral tones.

Re: Pivoting: one does not "pivot" from the optimal solution. That would by definition be sub-optimal.

[@katarinawikholm5873]

You pivot when you realise the optimal solution isn’t, bc it didn’t survive the impact w reality/new unaccounted for info came in. ENTJs are way more willing to adapt to new info, to revise on the fly. INTJs takes longer to pivot, If at all

[@Vibenab]

Will you please make a video between ENTJ and INTP?

[@susanam.826]

Very interesting.

[@AlexisKingsley]

Thanks Susana!

[@petersulak6059]

ENTJ like👌

[@tatirasubaff2149]

wooow so on point

[@emilyacoxpsychic]

SPOT ON - I am an ENTJ 8w7

[@joshgreen194]

...I've never seen a diamond in the flesh

[@Calistore2009]

When I was kid I was very curious analyzer but I was leading other children and not everyone around me. I have good fashion sense , am sensitive to beauty but I am not very active, multi-tasker smt like that so I think I am more of an INTJ. Am I right?

[@munazir12]

No idea what i am but have received a lot of comments from colleagues about me being on a mission😂😂😂 when i walk!

[@ryrororororo]

so on point for ENTJ

[@AlexisKingsley]

Thank you!

[@tw25ggg94]

I guess I kinda skipped Te and went straight into Fi😩

[@AvadaKedavra943]

I approve! - INTJ 😊

[@TariqTheTutor]

that's pretty accurate.

[@englishmuffin7]

Okay, i feel like i might be a little in the middle. As a kid I was happier, eager to talk to others and I couldn't really sit still for long. I was more vocal but not exactly social. In junior high and high school i was pushed into introversion and now I feel more energized with social interaction more than when i was a kid. I did boss my siblings around, though there was one that always resisted me and wanted to be boss so there was a rivalry for a long time that idk if it died yet... but does this make me ENTJ or INTJ because i didn't exactly love planning things as a kid i just didn't think about that then

[@whitecat_ag974]

I can confirm Te dom childhood, my classmates weren't fond of me since when l was like 7yo bcz l was bossy and would become anything but pleasing with me in group projects bcz l'd ''care too much'' abt them l was a jerk tho can't blame them in that

[@jamalcole1985]

I guess I'm both 🤷

[@ezj8262]

Ben Shapiro think he is an INTJ, but I would put my money down on him being an ENTJ

[@SigfridSWE]

I know Im only one of them and listning to this its probably INTJ and test Ive done show that... but... I think my fattar is a ENTJ... and I think Ive triad to emilate and be like him a lot when I was younger... Så because of that I have developt some of those things... so I get confused...

[@sakibislam4079]

how about an antj

[@user-gf6lc3of9f]

You can't be an AXXX type. The letter 'a' doesn't exist in mbti types. You can be an ENTJ ambivert or an INTJ ambivert.

[@King-ij8ee]

What do you mean child? I only remember from a certain age.

[@NB-qy7ku]

Any entj want to be friend -ntj

[@stevenseagal4987]

I first heard of Meyers briggs several years ago and have been dabbling in it for years but all of this NI, TE stuff makes no sense to me. Is it just me or does it seem like these functions are very blurry?

[@AlexisKingsley]

Totally agree that there's an element of blurriness to the functions - especially because many people's definitions are different! I have a video on cognitive functions, hope it helps clear it up! kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5ObfYB7abhosJo

[@nv6274]

i relate ni-fi loop but i also relate to fi grip cuz se grip doesnt seem like me. i do care about my looks tbh i like seeing the pretty reflection of myself on the mirror... what am i supposed to do should i label myself as an antj or smth???😭😭

[@nv6274]

oh and im pretty introverted person since im a kid but i know i have a strong te.... idk about ni tho its kinda confusing. i dont believe in the social battery thing at all and if im an entj im sure im an introverted one- i dont like talking to people if thats not necessary. se is what making me confusing because i never was a sportive person but i know thats just not what se means only..... SOMEBODY HELP THIS GIRL

[@handianus]
