INFJ that went through childhood trauma here. I could barely concentrate in grade school except for reading comprehension. Then, I hardly ever showed up for middle and high school. But Community College was a different story. Because I was able to pursue an education that suited my interests and career choices. Yes, I read a lot and love learning new things. Meeting interesting people and hearing their life stories is also something I love. Don't judge a book by its cover. The coolest people I have ever met aren't uber models or rock stars.

I guess I am not the only INFJ whose curiosity triumphed over their guilt. Having clicked upon a video, well aware that it would surely stroke my ego. An ego I tend to struggle with and repress. I am well aware that my need to understand, and to be understood, tends to be overwhelming for most. I enjoy a long swim in deep waters. This, too, often makes those around myself feel less than, despite my encouragements. I often desire the ability to truly reveal my heart, for my intentions wouldn't be questioned so. Alas, such a heart has grown colder with the passing of years. My walls of fear tower around me, threatening to pierce the perpetual storm that hangs above. As for my mind, given that I find the topic engaging, or question intriguing, I hold little sway over it's processes. I draw upon my unconscious reservoirs of knowledge, each contributing seemingly divergent topics. Somehow, my subconscious begins mixing a plethora of concoctions, each new chemical bond reinforcing the next, culminating in an elixir. My subconscious offers it up to my mind's eye. With bated breath, I consciously imbibe it. I only truly become privy to the idea in it's entirety when the effects wear off and I return to my silent disposition. I eagerly analyze those whom which I shared my newly formulated drink with. A brief reflection allows me to explore a newly found understanding of the patterns connecting everything around us. A daring sense of pride washes over me. Momentarily, I feel connected to something greater than myself. However, though good intentioned, their praise, or adoration of the idea swiftly returns me to the mundane world, where I reengage with my struggle with imposters syndrome. After all, was it really my idea? I apologize for my ramblings. Perhaps you might relate. I appreciate you taking the time to read my comment. Take care and God bless. ✝️

I certainly am a voracious reader. I read instead of watching TV or movies. I can read a 300-page novel in a day. If it's really good, I'll slow down to savor it over a couple of days. That's why I can't understand why anyone would buy hard-back novels. I guess if it takes you weeks or months to read it, you feel like you got your money's worth? I'd go broke and run out of shelf space! Learning isn't a hobby, it's a need, like breathing and eating. For some reason, in fifth grade, the school administered an IQ test. I can't remember if it was everyone or just me. They called my parents in and highly suggested they place me in a boarding school for the gifted. They didn't, probably because they couldn't afford it. But that explains why school was so boring and why I required a constant stack of library books to feed my voracious curiosity. I literally read through encyclopedias! (I'm 65. We didn't have internet then.)

I wish I had enough extra free time to read actual books, but instead I choose to spend my time learning via KZbin, podcasts and online reading/articles while I'm busy. The only time I'm not reading with the intent to learn or self-improve... is when I'm out in nature and have no internet access. LOL

Huh uh, “…INFJ’s understand the big picture & have a helicopter view of life.” I have never heard anyone relate to the “helicopter view.” And, it bugs the heck outta me when I used to receive “piecemeal” tasks without knowing what the project or ultimate goal is. However, I always say that I can understand and navigate any city if I could only see it from above, like a bird, or a helicopter, lol. I’ve only been a sub for a short while, but I really enjoy the giggles you so delightfully share with us. Keep up your authentic content❣️

All so true. I am definitely into reading and learning. I read an average of 40 books a year, mostly nonfiction. And for the rare times I read fiction, I pick one that teaches me something. Reading is not just for entertainment. When I learn a new topic, I read and watch everything I can on the topic. Like learning about MBTI personalities, especially INFJ. It's 100% or nothing.

Any other dyslexic INFJs out there? Some of the clues are you can't tell your left from your right, you may be a very slow reader, you have trouble alphabetizing, difficulty with working memory, etc. That's not saying that you can't do these things it's just that you have to stop and think about it, it's not second instinct for you. I'm just wondering because there are a lot of traits that overlap between dyslexics and INFJs, like being a network rather than linear thinker, seeing the big picture, and having high emotional intelligence.
@NoxiousNova4 ай бұрын
This is why a lot of INFJs are on the spectrum. We function with pattern recognition and collections of energy shifts that we can understand on an intuitive level. But lexical based smarts? nope. Memorizing things with ease? nope.

Electronic gadgets do not "do it" for me. Books! The way they smell, the way the pages feel, the excitement of new words and new ideas. No topic is off limits. I even take notes while reading. Reading is truly my drug of choice. Hope everyone has a happy day. Take care.

While in middle school in the 70's I took an I.Q exam, and a week later, called into the Principal office with my mother to talk about my scores. You see, at the time I had a reputation as a sarcastic student with a quick wit. The topic of conversation, Why I was not performing well in certain subjects but excel in others, and now it was confirmed, I was well above average. My mom walked away with a Big smile on her face once confronted with my results. I took the test again just for myself and my mom, and eked out additional 10 more points. I was an IFNJ in the making! Love your content, keep up the good work Sir!!

Had a similar experience in grade school. Apparently my mom was warned not tell me of my scores. But eventually , with her subtle hints and my intuition, I figured it out. I chose not to pursue a pathway to "higher" education and went to Vocational Technical high school. (trade school)...No regrets, but sometimes I do wonder where another path would have taken me.

Your description of INFJ in this video fits pretty much the scanner type by Barbara Sher. I've read some books from her (and yes, also many others) ;-) Learning is still associated with reading books. I want to share two other great possibilities: 1) Meditation 2) Learning by Doing I've received so many important insights just by meditating, it's incredible. Doing things, trying, failing, starting all over is a great way of learning and can be a lot of fun. I've done around 20 types of sports intensively and worked in many different roles and companies. Always up for something new (currently video editing). Great community here btw! Love reading the other comments as well, so many like minded people, that's great!

Here is a summary of the reasons why INFJs are considered the smartest personality type: 1. **Sixth Sense**: INFJs have powerful intuition, which allows them to predict future events and understand people's behaviors based on past experiences. 2. **High IQ**: INFJs tend to have high intelligence, often achieving top grades in high school and college. 3. **High EQ**: INFJs possess strong emotional intelligence, enabling them to understand and empathize with others' feelings and needs. 4. **Voracious Readers**: INFJs read more books than most other personality types, contributing to their broad knowledge. 5. **Lifelong Learners**: INFJs have an insatiable desire to learn, constantly seeking new information through various mediums. 6. **Big Picture Thinking**: INFJs can see the big picture and connect different ideas, leading to creative problem-solving. 7. **People-Focused**: INFJs prioritize people over metrics, considering the impact on individuals when making decisions. These traits combine to make INFJs highly intelligent and insightful individuals.

Interesting video. I know everyone is different even within a specific personality type. But are you sure these are INFJ traits? The INFJ's in my life that I'm close to don't have hardly any of these. The only one's that fit them is the loves to read and puts other feelings before their own. The other traits sound more like the NFP's I know. I do know that INFJ's and the INFP's that I know dealt with extreme abuse growing up. Is that the reason they don't have a lot of these traits? Thank you for sharing.
