I’ve seen ENTJ mistype as INTJ more often than the reverse due to the bias around social introversion, as opposed to cognitive introversion. Generally, I can spot ExTJ a mile away due to their tendency towards a forceful communication style. When something sparks their interest, ENTJ suck the marrow out of the bones of it as quickly as possible - where INTJ have more of a quiet and slow burn and don’t have that intense “outward” vibe about their interests.

[@Ella-qg4bq]

B/C INTJs keep their soul intact with the heart but ENTJ put aside their heart to be god and they care less about their soul but they should be god to control everything. INTJ is not comparable with ENTJ AT ALL!! I’m telling you~~~~~ Ps; ENTJ must learn about this If you don’t educate your heart, there is no education at all. First, Step back to work on themselves before conquering the world. Man, who mastered himself (INTJ) is much much much much greater than man, who beat thousands of people (entj) I can not find any ENTJ I give my respect even little bit instead, I want to kick their ass off but my full respect to lots of INTJ:))))))) Hooray 😁

[@Johnny3Batony]

Yuuup. I've been typed as INTJ many times, for the simple reason that I don't like talking to people without any reason and pretty often lock myself in the room for days, if I have nothing important to do. Still an ENTJ though.

[@qua7771]

@@Johnny3Batony I think I agree with you. I always test INTJ but I have my doubts, because I jump on task quite aggressively. I test near center on extroversion. The thing is, I'm not so good at building a team.

This right here is what I wanted to understand, the tone difference between these two NTJ types.

[@headphones2308]

As an INTJ with an ENTJ friend, I’ve come to the simple explanation of guns (thanks to said ENTJ friend having a thing for guns). INTJs are sniper rifles, slow and immobile for the most part. From their detached far away vantage point they passively gather information of the entire battlefield before they make their move. When they do make their move however, it’s precise, efficient, and powerful. They rarely act, but when they do, it’s always a powerful move. This slow but powerful style however, is both their strength and their weakness. Bombard them with too many actions at once, and they can’t react to all of them fast enough. Since snipers have a slow fire rate and long range sights, you rush them with a barrage of fast short ranged strikes. ENTJs however are submachine guns, fast in both fire rate and mobility, always in the frontlines leading the charge with their comrades, the vanguard paving the way for the team. They focus on an objective, complete it with speed and efficiency, then onto the next objective. No pause, no respite. Just the long chain of objectives that are required to attain victory, no matter the cost. A fast firing speed however has a drawback of short range, that’s where snipers come into play. To win against a submachine gun, you blindside them with a single decisive strike before they can react to it. In short, INTJs are passive people who prefer to observe the entire playing field, absorbing information, seeing connections, after the long period of passiveity however, they start making plays towards their goal. Big, powerful, plays. ENTJs are similar in the aspect of having a single minded goal that they efficiently work towards. The difference however, being the path they take to get to their goal. Instead of passively observing to eventually make one big move to achieve their goal, they instead actively work towards their goal by constantly making many small moves.

[@btcraven7397]

so accurate

[@keithgarber2469]

Great analogy! I am pretty sure my late wife was an ENTJ. She never tested. I have always tested out as being an INTJ and 5w4. We balanced each other out so well and fit beautifully together in pretty much every way.

[@Ella-qg4bq]

We need broad ranged knowledge to comprehend our human condition. However, INxx types know/understand We can not hide the sun the moon the truth so go with natural principles and truth But ENxx types’ god complex take to different level. Yes, if INTJ throw away their soul and heart, iNTJ can be ENTJ or falling into the reality too much , INTJ can be ISTJ or IxTJ Our intention can shift our personality due to strong desire and temptation without efforts. Sometimes when we have to change ourselves for better adaption so in this case lots conscious efforts are needed compared with someone, who is blind for power or wealth or fame Motive /intention/adaptation INTJ is organic ENTJ is hybrid INTJ is needed for life and humanity

[@Ella-qg4bq]

Humans should carry their heart and brain together for their growth and life journey but ENTJ is lack of this. ENTJ type is the most destructive type for earth and humanity while acting like god compared with other types. I just stay away from this type at any cost. Pls look at world wide history. You will see it.

[@YouTwatcher27]

As an ENTJ I disagree with the analysis regarding champion selection in video games. I never pick the strongest character in general but the one who is the best out of my most liked options. This stems from the fact that I don’t like to share my characters with others and the need to have a good challenge. Picking the strongest just doesn’t feel right to me. I don’t know if I’m not typical in that regard but that’s how it is for me at least. Other than that very informative and good video.

[@thefreshestslice4105]

Ask an INTJ and an ENTJ to describe themselves, if they're both willing to be honest. One's a lot more self critical, holds themself to higher standards than they can probably ever meet, and generally a lot more reserved. And the other thinks they are the standard, which is why they need to and deserve to run everything.

@@Ella-qg4bq Well, you're enthusiastic. I don't need to look at world history. I can realize how I think, as an INTJ, and talk to ENTJs to figure out how they think, and then draw conclusions about our differences. Plenty of them care about the impact of their actions on others. That's honestly first and foremost what they are about. They may not care about the emotions and values of others as much, but they do think about other people and the impact of their ideas on them.

[@oFxnal]

Thank you for this. Cleared a lot of thing up for me

[@eugenenguyen9972]

My experience is that as INTJ, we are not that confident while having to be in charge, and our fear of having to manage other people (which stems from the fear of having other people ruin our plan) can somewhat push us toward doing all the job on our own. Whenever I have to be the leader, it is not the type of leader that just do the managing and distributing of tasks. I have to be able to simulate the whole process to make sure that if the team members follow that route, the job can be done. I would only outsource people to do the Se, as you said. If it has come to the point when I have to step in, I just cannot trust that people can think on their own.

[@TheGreatCalsby]

Hi there, always interested in your videos. This one is very informative - as an INTJ who was almost an ENTJ on the introversion-extraversion scale, its cleared things up a bit. I wanted to ask: have you considered explaining what behaviors one might expect from personalities who are 50/50 for each function? E.g. 50/50 introverted-extraverted - how would that present itself in a personality? Or 50/50 judging-feeling, etc

[@Ella-qg4bq]

Elizabeth holm Her behaviors at her company were ENTJ and her personal life is close to INTJ. Her screwed inner world basically disconnected from her heart and easily became ENTJ. Her control freak behaviors for her fraud company could blow your mind. What a crazy lady she is! She is a big example of how much important it is to take care of inner world! Ni is able to see the truth and it helps keep on the right track without complete control but excess Te with lack of Ni causes to be ENTJ behavior since truth can not be hidden so they must control everything in order to hide truths. We can not hide the sun the moon the truth. Entp con artist behavior Enfj cult behavior Nothing is different In the contrast, Pls look at INxx types We can clearly see the differences b/w IN and EN

Part 2, "How to tell apart YOUNG ENTJS and INTJS"

[@venus-pq5gg]

good question

[@zeratulvoidseeker1757]

I find that the reason to distinguish extroverted from introverted tertiary functions stems from the ability to go to the other side of introversion/extroversion for a particular function. An extroverted dominant function user can often have some ability in the introverted counterpart of that dominant function, but it's a lot harder for tertiary function, and hence the perceived imbalance aka difference of how introverted and extroverted tertiary functions are shown.

[@loworochi]

Thoughts on Walter White? Seems like an INTJ who wants very ENTJ thing. He wants his genius and greatness to be recognized and is very prideful. INTJs generally seem like the type to keep things on the low and not care about recognition but ENTJs due to their tertiary Se seem to satisfy that with showing off. What would be your opinion?

[@EnlighTeNing317]

Good question, not Asura but I’d say wanting to show off isn’t necessarily a trait of Se. Remember, even if inferior the INTJ still values Se. Fi can at times be “selfish,” this is why Walter pursued his goal because he inherently believes he deserves to be recognized. I’d say he is an INTJ, just extremely prideful. The fact he was mostly “doormatish,” passively observing most of his life, & it took him this long to act is a sign of being an INTJ.

[@loworochi]

@@EnlighTeNing317 great answer. Yeah it seemed like early on in the show he was coming to grips with his Te as the story progressed. Thanks for your input!

[@EnlighTeNing317]

@@loworochi correct, to add onto that a little bit, Te for the INTJ is used on purpose to achieve the goal. Walter learned to utilize it for the better to help him execute his Ni vision. His need for self inflation came from a belief in Fi. Walter’s weak points are in Se, he’s more comfortable passively observing as Asura said INTJ’s prefer, executing when they are certain with Te. Just like on the other hand, ENTJ aren’t “impulsive,” they use Ni very well too. They are just able to make decisions faster which an INTJ has trouble with. I’d say: INTJ wants to understand the world (Ni) in order to realize themselves into it (Se). They understand themselves a little better (Fi). ENTJ wants to objectively get on top of its environment (Te) in order to find who they are (Fi.) They are able to head into action more easily (Se). The aux function, Ni for ENTJ; Te for INTJ are tools to get to that. ENTJ stopping to observe what’s going on in the world (Ni), INTJ heading into rational decision making (Te).

[@Ella-qg4bq]

@@EnlighTeNing317 some parts I agree with you, some parts I don’t ENTJ are NOT interested in finding who they are. 🧚🏻‍♂️This is completely off their mind🧚🏻‍♂️. Their tertiary Se could mean pursuing dopamine rush so They don’t satisfy with wealth or power itself like ESTJ , who are more interested in enjoying the physical life. They should have some sort of thrill off “their ideas” due to intuition preference over sensing by achieving or being highlighted. Their Ni recognize quick grasping and understanding on the surface but don’t go into the bottom of depth like INTJ, who are very hard on themselves for shelf growth to understand why They are not interested in self growth AT ALL but self success. Moral compass compared only b/w ESTJ and ENTJ AbsoluteLy ESTJ!!!!!! ESTJ manage Se so well since it’s at adult level Compared with ENTJ se at teenage level ENTJ must educate their heart more than ESTJ before anything else Mandatory for ENTJ / recommendation for ESTJ INTJ feel deeply but don’t know how to express ENTJ don’t feel so 😱 solution?

[@EnlighTeNing317]

@@Ella-qg4bq you’ve misunderstood my points, though I suppose this is my fault since I was dumbing down the use of the functions. I agree, the ENTJ on their own is NOT attempting to find themselves. However, the inferior function is known as being “aspirational,” meaning it is that which we neglect in order to fulfill the others. Most EXTJ will struggle with a lack of identity, the goal of all types is to fulfill their aspirational function whether they are aware of it or not. The ENTJ will attempt to do this by using their Tert Se as you’ve said to pursue a rush of feeling alive. They believe by improving upon efficiency which they have a knack for (TeNi) that they are serving the “tribe” and fulfilling something in this world to feel better about the lack of self worth. The ENTJ is aware of the lack of self & attempts to fulfill this by doing the above. This is what I mean by “discovering themselves,” although it is surely a poor attempt to do so.

[@OnLifeandLove]

Very interesting. I'm pretty certain I'm on the borderline of ENTJ/INTJ. While I have cognitive extraverted preferences and spend most of my time doing activities, I do not take leadership roles, and I'm rarely forceful in my opinions unless it hits my Fi. I far prefer to privately achieve my personal goal than managing other people. Perhaps cognitive attitudes are not as black and white as the theory describes.

We have to understand the core of human nature and the way our creator give us life so I feel that we’re here to contribute to the evolution of humanity for better life until we go back to our origin.

I beg to differ that Ni can be rational or irrational depending on secondary function. Whether a type is rational or not is more dependent upon T vs F. INTJ's are indeed incredibly rational, but Ni being so rare it's highly misunderstood by sensor types. The rest seems accurate.
