I’m an INTP but I am more F so INXP lately. And I’m unsure if I’ve been through an XNTP phase with E or not. I’ve analyzed many people and every goes through 4 phases for each subtype in their life. And I have noticed you stay in the last phase for the rest of your life maybe loss of plasticity in the brain. So I want to know if I’ll end up in this XNTP phase or if I went through it already and didn’t realize it ?

You know it's bad if an ENTP has run out of options! NON-BELIVER: the path stops and there is a cliff! ENTP: Well I will climb down the cliff! NON-BELIVER: There is a large lake in front of you! ENTP: Ok I will swim to the other side! NON-BELIVER: There are crocodiles ENTP: Is there a boat? NON-BELIVER: No ENTP: I will walk round! NON-BELIVER: It's a big lake? ENTP: I will go round anti-clockwise! In water sandles it will make it more of a challenge! NON-BELIVER: it's 20 miles ENTP: It could be worse it could have been 21 miles!

[@efborkov]

I'm at the point in my life where I still love to learn from a seasoned Professor, but I'm obsessed with research, (however rudimentary, (usually not tho) hence the inherent lack of deep knowledge of the subject, but rather the high points.......then I use my gift of the correlation of unconventional wisdom, totally significant & confoundingly perturbed that such an uncredentialed novice........I MUST overspeak the scripted pro to annoying highlight these pertinent elements, had you yourself had delved down into your own "scripted" delivery. Hence, I begin to control the discussion, I'd rather provide radical unexplored yet underpinning issues to get through to ppl, especially so I don't need to calculate the fractional amt of my time & energy was actually spent learning something new in that "progressive" lecture. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE to learn new concepts, but if "compassion to an enabling fault" is visible, I just cant STFU! some cases in point: Is anxiety or hypertension an exacerbating symptom of it's very causation, anxiety, or vice versa? *sounds plausible response. NO, WRONG each exacerbate the other, but theres no confirmation of the dynamics in that cycle yet. YET MH DRs don't GAF really!?! MH - Since when has holistic mind/body/spirit EVER been considered independently to achieve good health?! That's right! when the legal drug dealers greased enough palms. And the FDA provides approval after they have developed a "risk avoidance" policy by labeling nasty drugs with Black label warnings to "take at your own risk" that the "pusher" never mentions or checks on systemic adverse reactions to. sounds kinds criminal to me. What!? never heard of the FDA's Black Box Label seal of approval? EXACTLY!! Lastly, I'm dominating the meetings lately because I just gotta cut right to the chase over the "speak easy" coach who is too sweet & educated to relate. Me: "The urgency to fix your latest mistake is rn! You're a good person, but pls, stop with the nonsense BS right now to self-exhonerate & deflect, cuz I ain't giving that to you!! Imma provide you with the path of least resistance, the healthiest method, & provide some easy SOLUTIONS for your trajectory towards peace & happiness & to veer you from your current path towards your & ur daughters emotional destruction.......so put on your Red Hot Cape, SuperMom & handle it ASAP. This is your opportunity! Here & now! Now that I provided you all that info, research, child psychology insight, & the easiest way to help her, NOW it's on YOU, MOTHER..........and not your distraught rebellious sassy, but good daughter's so it is absolutely YOUR ACCOUNTABILITY if you fail her again, & not just your teen's attitude, so choose wisely my friend, but self-loathing & guilt are soul sucking. Solutions!!! There's just no profit in that ridiculous concept! I give a 1,000 for every one I recv. Like a lottery!! You just said the exact opposing argument that I now need to effectively render invalid. sweet Are ENTPs the only type that see options, angles, opportunities, hope, indignation & refusal to shoulder the burden or imposition forced upon you, possess creativity in strategic planning, etc? Cuz I totally annoy most egos that my BF Mouth I can't just STFU to observe the professional & compassionate "train wreck" occurring, that's actually pretty ZZZZZZZ to me simultaneously! Never had composure, decorum, and any desire for tempering of my emotions or my reflexive approach of subtle, gentle, soft & calm verbal sparring that totally depends on the infractions, offending parties, ability to overcome, etc. Then, my tongue morphs into a forked condescending weapon to alert ppl to their own radical truths that they now hate me for cuz their broken 2 ton ego was given a shocking detonator of honesty that they must ruminate over, when they were so self-assured just before it. But I NEED to dial it back now! like Mrs Beaver, or better Alice Cramden!! Instead...... Dr. & Mrs. House? LOL Searching for the greatest mystery in my life..........how to chill myself TF down in public without flinching at ppl's unkindness towards others! it's a real struggle for me. It seems that everyone has become soooo unamused by everything, after I just readjusted my vision to sunlight after seclusion & I'm a making my own party, dammit!! And worse, I retort to sideways comments like the village idiot to mitigate their professional yet irrelevant canned answer that everyone eats, that I find quite fun to do & that's to my detriment. OMG!!! AND IF THEY KEEP REPEATING THEIR LOGIC THAT I JUST BLEW UP AS INVALID..........AHHHHHHHH!!! I'll repeat them 2x each subsequent time &then remind them of what I just said five mins ago that negates that option. Like Pavlov's dogs. My tolerance for such runarounds & negligence, or even just tangential small talk will be the death of my ENTP Spirit!! NAHHHHH, not MY prob. Evasive maneuvering needs improvement. But, I go one autopilot & its reflexive because I assume its shitty ppls MO that usually never get called out on. it's like you saying, But Why? & they respond "because A comes before B then C, it's a process (theirs being totally outdated by decades but it's the law of the land, fallible or not. not my job to care!) Ewwww, idea!!!......what if I find an extremely MORE obnoxious & sarcastic, blunt, crass, & arrogant "copartner" to upstage my own indiscretions of wanton & perhaps enjoyable offensive communicating style. lol. See! Theres always hope inspiring opportunities! Disclaimer: Don't get all insulted or cling to narrow minded convictions about your perception of this. Just comprehend that you're totally clueless to which sentiments are truly authentic and which are comedic. Yes, I am an ENTP female! Inherently "atypical," exactly what we strive for. 🦄

[@broadstreetbum]

I’m glad you guys break this stuff down. Before I understood my functions, I thought I suffered from a bunch of mental illnesses. A.D.D, Autism from being obsessed with patterns. I recently thought that I might be Bipolar. My whole life I would get insane bursts of motivated energy, i’m talking borderline euphoric with an idea, or activity. The passion was so strong that I became convinced it was going to change my life. As the enthusiasm drained day by day, and I was left staring at a 500 dollar instrument (or whatever it is this month) I didn’t want to learn anymore, I became really depressed. Turns out i’m just an ENTP.

[@nanadork5746]

Broadstreetbum omg so me :D before I took a test to find out I am entp i just thought I was weird, something is wrong with me, or I was just a bad person. My mom often criticized parts of my character as „laziness“, „lack of interest“ etc but it turns out, that’s just the way I am

[@sierrafarnum9689]

Definitely still get checked out. Nothing sounds strange from your description, but obviously any personality type can have a mental illness. People who are bipolar go through either hypomanic or manic sections, and the two most common markers for these are increased goal oriented behavior and decreased need for sleep. In mania you start having delusions or hallucinations, but hypomania is harder to catch, because it doesn’t require these. If you find yourself going through depression and bouts of goal oriented happier than the average person bursts, go to a therapist.

[@DERIVATIVES-mh6ej]

It's possible that you don't continue sudden passions is because there're not enough people congratulating you in your progress in that passion; we do have FE as a tertiary function after all. Coinciding to that, you are likely not getting enough feedback about your progress and, therefore, will rely only on yourself to determine how good or knowledgeable you are about a subject. But that brings a problem, ENTPs regularly assume that they know enough or at least know everything they want to about something and, as soon as that occurs, lose interest. The best way to deal with this is to constantly tell yourself that there is always something new to learn, there is always a new perspective you don't know about yet. Another good way of fixing this is to try and get people to criticize and complement you in the subject of the passion. Doing these things will allow you to stay fascinated and enthusiastic about anything.

30:30 The getting intimate fast can be an emotional trap for an ENTP if the relationship doesn't work out or if the other person is wrong for you, because it is easy to get into, but much harder to get over, because of how deep we go. It's like the difference of jumping out of the plane and enjoying the free-fall, followed by parachute ride and enjoying the free-fall and then the canopy not opening.

[@slimemold4767]

oh ya, I feel like Ill say too much and just instantly regret it and i hate myself for wanting to open up to people because I feel like i shouldn't need them

[@paulfadden8834]

@@slimemold4767 You should be careful who you open up to, as most people will not be able to deal with too much information or complex thought,, it's quite easy to see who you can and can not talk to. I learnt this because I have had an interest in psychic/supernatural things and people turn off from that much quicker. Why do you worry about saying too much? How do you define too much? (talking for too long or saying more than maybe you should have?) . What do you regret? not saying what you should? As much as we are able to rely on ourselves in a way that other types can not, doesn't mean we don't need people around us! We all have family, friends and or work colleagues who we interact with, humans are social animals and spending time with other people is important. The most important thing to remember is be yourself, and you will find out who your friends really are. I would rather have 4-5 really good friends than 100's of bad ones and no good one's. A friend isn't someone who will listen while you are helping them out and never finding time when you need them. However even with good friends they can't always deal with our complexity.

[@miljanaantic8712]

As an ENTP, I often compare us to cats. You know how people say: "Curiosity killed the cat". Our instinct to explore life deeply often brings us into trouble. Because that is fun for us, we tend to forget about the consequences, often making us literally waste time on things that are kinda pointless, sometimes even harmful. There's the same trouble when it comes to dating because manipulative people are interesting to observe. Debating with them, asking provocative questions, analyzing, and connecting the dots in their mindset is very intimidating to us because manipulators would always give us something to think through about. I realized I was hanging out with many manipulators for years, just because I was really curious to learn more about their mindset. Unfortunately, I caught myself being emotionally bonded to some of them because exploring and learning were more fun than my "perfect" intuition.

[@shanz4273]

OMGGGGG I always talk about the "curiosity killed the cat or was the cat already dead?" in the same that if we aren't curious enough are we actually already dead? but also the same as if we're too curious it can get us dead... hahaha anyways I grew up with manipulative parents and im not sure if that was part of the influence of me being an ENTP love this commentary.

28:00 because ENTPs rely so heavily on intuition we get to know people so quickly that I think a lot of people are intimidated by our intensity. I think Im right in saying we also have the see through people stare which contributes to that intensity. For me as an ENTP the intensity is exciting, where as for others it can be scary especially if they don't understand it.

[@paulfadden8834]

@Sub. Sa. we love to talk! :)

[@paulfadden8834]

@Sub. Sa. Hi, Yes that makes sense, because that sounds very like me from the ENTP side, where I think INFP are scary is when they are extreme politically, because this is when they become feral! You have to base judgments on reality, not feelings! e.g. if the INFP was a vegan and therefore would chose to not save someones life because they ate meat, because that person was the enemy, or because they were a Trump supporter! In this situation, the reality is that person is about to die, the rest is irrelevant! I have been to India, Indonesia and Madagascar and seen real poverty. For many of those people they do not have the luxury of the privilege of choice, the way we do in the West, because they live hand to mouth!

[@paulfadden8834]

@Sub. Sa. As an ENTP I definitely spend a lot of time refining things, I would say I have an Agile mind. Some people find this hard because they like to agree some thing and have it stuck to, but if I see ways to improve I can't help myself. Also if I start a project I find it hard to keep it small. For example I am building a firepit. Most people would dig a hole, put bricks at the top and that's it. Mine is 3m diameter, dug 500cm into the earth, there will be air fed in below the fire like a rocket stove, and the hot air will flow through the bricks used for the seating area on the outside of the firepit which is 1m down. I also designed and got fabricated brackets for the sides of the area to hold the soil back. It's alot of work and has ended up being expensive, but it's going to be awesome.

[@paulfadden8834]

@Sub. Sa. I can accept there will be ENTPs out there who use their minds to take advantage of people, that is not why I do what I do! I do not think with my emotions, and therefore I do not tend to consider them when talking about things and have often ended up putting my foot in my mouth. This isn't because I don't understand peoples emotions, it's just because objectivity is more important to me, than subjectivity. If I am talking with someone about something I know is hard for them, like bereavement etc.. that's different, but especially when it comes to people who make life decisions and then lecture everyone else about why they should do the same, that's play time, and giving a FF at that point is out of the window! They are 100% allowed to make what ever decision that want in regards to themselves, but they have 0% right to do the same for me and the more they try the, further I will take it. However if I can see them getting to a vulnerable state I will back off, because going any further could have serious mental health effects, especially with religious people who use the religious structure to support themselves through their life! As an ENTP I will sometimes take a step back, but this is normally when the conversation is about something I know little about. However in a lot of situations I don't back down to think things through because I am thinking as we are talking. I don't tend to think about why I feel the way I do, because I know exactly why I feel how I do, there are things I question, but they tend to be external, not internal. I think this may be because I know who I am. What I may question is if an interaction went well, because I struggled to read the other person, e.g. if I am attracted to a biological women I might question how I think she felt.

Trust me guys, work in sales. It’s the best life decision I’ve ever made. My job is actually very mundane typically, but because I interact with so many different types of people on a daily basis, able to show them the best qualities of who I am just by talking to them, it’s the most fulfilling satisfying thing I’ve ever done in my life. Even though I’m doing the same work, every day is completely different. And it’s not so much of a workload to where I get overwhelmed or annoyed, it’s just right. I mean it’s a job, there’s definitely pressure, but I’m 100% in my element. No joke, some people come back to buy something from me just because they want to talk to me. And yes, I’ve scored too from work. I get an ego boost every single day, because people just live talking to me. And because of my personality I can get away with saying pretty much anything (within reason of course, I’m not an idiot). I can flex my witty muscles. Trust me, just do it.

Also because I worked as a contractor for 15 years and worked for so many companies, it now seems to be blocking me when I look for jobs.

I think ENTP’s are proned to atheism since we appear to always question everything, trying to find errors in the idea proposed. Just love to find conflicting proposals in concepts.

I find myself in between since I also question atheism as much as religion.

@@Zingius What’s there to question? I know it’s a difficult concept to grasp but there’s no alternative. Stories throughout religion have been copied and pasted throughout history with slight alterations and different names, that alone would be enough for me to mark off religion entirely. There are too many discrepancies, not to mention the contradictions and primitive way of life set up in the Bible… it’s honestly quite savage how we as a society and civilization can mark off Greek and Roman gods, but believe in Allah or Yahweh. The difference being the multiplicity in deities (lmao)

Maybe being an ENTP is all about constantly trying to escape depression and failure while also constantly looking for validation, the truth and meaning with everything, but being hilarious about it at the same time as a way to cope and to feel validated.

Great podcast! I am ENTP and my only real interest is music, wanted to be a musician, but my family thought it is a waste of Time. So I received a degree in economics, a field I was never interested in just to make my parents proud, and to show them I am capable. I even work in the logistics industry because that is a normal job. Seems like that I drifted pretty far from my passion. After this, I Will do everything to be able stick to my standards and interests. I will start to become myself, and be proud of my uniqueness. Can't play roles anymore.

I'm a business owner and it's a great role for ENTPs. I have a team of 4, and my role is just to set goals, come up with plans to execute those goals, and delegate the busy work to my team. It's the perfect setup for an ENTP because you can think of the big picture while leaving the details to people who are more suited to that kind of work. You're constantly solving new problems and coming up with new solutions for getting around roadblocks. ENTPs can see how everything in a business is connected and how they affect each other. If you change one variable in a business it affects every other facet of your operations. ENTPs can can make sense out of this complex web of interconnected parts. It's very liberating being your own boss, setting your own schedule, creating your own projects. The hard part is being disciplined and holding yourself accountable, because you're not accountable to anyone else. Good luck with your business ventures!

Not even done with the video but wanted to comment on this before I forget: (I'm an ENTP) this whole video has been exteeemely relatable, and so satisfying to have you talk about so thank you :) But what I found especially relatable was what you were saying about the accuracy process, and getting extremely frustrated when someone or something gets in the way of our autonomy and power over a situation. I have struggled with this my whole life specifically when it comes to sharing space with other people. I cook a lot and so I'm in the kitchen a lot. When someone else comes in and leaves their dirty dishes and food everywhere it SETS ME OFF lol. It's not even that I care that much about things being clean. My room and personal space is actually quite messy and I don't care. But when I'm trying to operate in an environment in the most efficient and effective way possible( when cooking for example) and someone else interferes with that, it is very frustrating. I always kind of wondered why I cared so much about this when ENTPs are sort of known to be disorganized and messy, and now I know it's just because my autonomy and accuracy process is being messed with :)

[@Beowulf002]

7:10 one thing I've noticed about the most brilliant ENTPs is that they valued their legacy more than their lives, and often the things that they are most remembered for was not their sole focus, just one of the things they just happened to do. Like electricity...LOL ok. I'll watch now haha

[@darkrebel123]

When I was about 25 or 26 I made the conscious descision to embrace radical honesty and openness. Radical honesty with myself and others. It was hard. But now 10 years later at the age of 35, I can say that is one of the most important changes I ever made in my approach to life. It's a complete game changer. It's freeing and empowering, and it is ultimately an expression of authenticity, which makes you a much more interesting and charismatic person. One of the things I've always craved most in life is deep connection with people. The surface level connections bore me. Radical honesty and authentic expression have brought me to the place where I can actually connect deeply with almost anyone I meet and am interested in. Honesty and opennes leads to real connection.

[@Alex-gn6ii]

8:35 you are so extremely right. Anytime I feel I have learned enough or all I can from something, boredom sets in and it applies to everything in life. The numerous week and month long romantic relationships I've had with women I felt I figured out or couldn't keep up. My Associates of Science degree in computer science, the BS I never finished in Psychology that turned into a minor, the BA in Business, my one enlistment for four years in the USAF as an air traffic controller, my constant need and desire to bounce from position to position in a workplace. My first job was a busser at a restaurant, turned into being the only male host in that restaurant, then a takeaway/curbside server, then an in house server, then a bartender, then a dishwasher, than a prep chef, then got bored with restaurant and jumped around all over in retail. Did cashier, customer service associate work, specialist work and professional contractor service all in the same workplace. Programming got boring. Can't decide on any graduate degree programs. Working with building materials now (lumber, roofing, concrete, etc.) thinking a more physical job may be more fulfilling, but I'm already looking at other positions, projects and possibilities I can get my resume out to as I've learned a physical job just makes my body tired and my brain restless and unsatisfied. Perpetually cursed with knowing a little bit about a lot of bit and trying to find something challenging, rewarding and comfortable for every fancy. Turning twenty nine and still just as lost and floaty as I was in high school. And now I'm realizing how ranty and whiny this comment I just wrote is. Ah well. Still have the rest of the podcast to listen to, I can figure life out afterwards lmao

[@randymcarn]

Good comment. You're not alone. As an entp ex Navy communications collections specialist turned carpenter I got into everything to keep from getting bored and now I do remodels by myself and I still enjoy it ten years later. I love all the cool tools I get to use. Mastering them took some time and there are always new ones and new ways being invented to keep it interesting. I got into electrical, plumbing, finishing, sheetrocking mudding and tapping and then fancy texturing technique called Artexing, painting, framing, windows, doors and floors etc. I can't stand roofing or siding work. Lame sauce jobs. Too easy. No room for improvement or much artistry. Always something new to learn. Got a really old book of circular carpentry techniques so if I get bored I'll crack that and learn new and exciting techniques to keep work interesting. I work alone usually. I find its easier that way. I like to get the customer involved. We do the designing, layout, and if I need help on the project I ask them for a hand. Works out great so far because I'm very good and accurate at what I do. Nobody is gonna keep this entp down or bored lol.

[@Spearman1951]

As an aging ENTP, I try to suppress my urge to suggest. Suppressed suggestions cause indigestion for consumers who have no clue what's been eating at them? Listening to the respectful discourse between two intimates is a too passive activity for a type that is addicted to kibbitzing. Personally reflective modeling of abstract concepts might be an effective educational technique but it is not as fascinating as seeing ENTPs in debate or creative exchange. Watching William F. Buckley take on Gore Vidal or Christopher Hitchens used to put this ENTP on the Firing Line. Yelling correctives at a screen was always worth the price of admission! Drawing with your daughter might have been substantially different had you allowed for the creation of a new drawing game with mutually negotiated rules? Your Ti 'accuracy' rules accepted separate competitive activity as being a source of fun for you. Where was your daughter coming from? Could a blank sheet have been filled with: "What is the color of anger?" What might have come into shape and texture if you had a collaborative stroke by stroke free-form "finish my thought" art. This "can you top this" improv dialogue allows for weird creatures to emerge from the jungles of our imaginations.

I have been living with my parents again while looking for a house to buy out here and I literally feel like I lost completely who I am. They don't embrace my individuality of thought which is so pivotal my being and confidence. I can see myself drastically limiting my exposure to them once I finally find my property and get out of here. Oh and the being authentic through our radical honesty has helped me out so much lately. That confidence helps while dealing with those beginnings. Then people will know we crushed it without even knowing much about the subject but we learned it and put the puzzle together. Take on the modest leaning open mind.

I really connected with your story half way in about losing your family.

I felt no longer felt remorse or was made to feel bad or self-conscious about my "me-ness". Powerful stuff. Both liberating and also traumatizing, which also led to my current avoidant attachment style as a new challenge to overcome in my deeper relationships.

I truly don't say things out of ego or malice. I've finally owned it and people have literally thanked me for identifying pain points about themselves and giving them hope through a list of ways for improvement. I normally only say things after relationships have had more time to build now. I'm also very accepting of other's criticisms of myself but I've always welcomed that. I think at a young age I realized other's don't like anything that can be perceived about them. I literally started suppressing not only my thoughts and actions but my way if life to be more acceptable. I almost list myself in that process. Great vid.

Kelsie Saunders I guess we need them both. It depends on what we lacked in our childhood, also. Although, respect might be perceived as a male trait and approval as a female one.

I remember one day I made up a game where I would count for example every seat on the entire train, then I would count every person with black hair, then I would count every person with glasses etc... It may seem like a dumb thing to do but for me it was a fun little challenge so I wouldn’t get bored. It also was interesting for me to gather new facts or observations about things and people around me and in this case on this specific train.

I think nursing is an extremely overrated career and see the flaws with the complexities of the profession. I feel no other nurses see the these ridiculous flaws which makes me want to leave nursing. I get thrills talking shit about nurses/nursing and I can back up what I say. Many times though people see what I'm talking about and understand my concepts but I have really pissed off people too. I'm a male nurse that was single until age 30 plus I'm a very sexy dude so I knew how to pull the ladies with my charm. But yeah my ego has along side people judging inaccurately, I have gotten myself into shit in my nursing career and have really had difficulty reasoning/understanding with many things in nursing. I honestly thought about doing a podcast talking shit about nursing full on knowing how controversial that would be. I'm fairly confident I can back up what I say though with facts and basic logic. I'm extremely popular with patients in the ER and enjoy entertaining people. When I start talking about the brutal truths about being a nurse I know how to put a funny/lighthearted spin on it so it's entertaining for people to hear my complaining. Nursing students both high school and college love following around because I'm welcoming but also they enjoy my entertainment. I make sure they understand why it's awful being a nurse and they laugh but understand what I'm talking about. This is why I wanted to start a podcast starting shit about nursing but at the same time I understand I could be blacklisted as a nurse so I'm scared to doing it. Hospitals can be ruthless towards nurses and a podcast speaking the truth could absolutely destroy my career. At the same time if it was successful it could change a lot things for the positive in nursing and healthcare in general.

Do it. I've realized I don't think I would succeed in real estate as I also will probably quickly get blacklisted as well. Mainly bc I'm single and won't play the game like they want me to, I just started a year ago and I'm pretty sure I've already frustrated a prominent man here in real estate and have also told another lady one that I will sue her for slander and defemation of character for a text she accidentally sent me meant for someone else. 😬🤐 So hey, I think people are CRAVING the truth to be spoken about certain professions. Do it! 😁 I bet it will flourish

As an intrapreneur, I can honestly say the novelty and excitement still dies. Projects/jobs last 1 year instead of 6 months. My company always took back control when I made enough progress to gain notoriety. Ownership felt they had to track metrics systematize for “accountability” lol. Intraprenuership is still just a job.
