THE LION MENTALITY OF THE INFJ

[@Wenzes]

Have you ever used the optimize and push strategy consciously or unconsciously?

[@trevorvaz7109]

One INFJ that I was talking with said she was addicted to figuring out her exes, and learnt to put that energy into figuring out subjects for college/school. I read fiction books and do thorough analysis on the book and it’s plot, and this fulfill my need to dive deep and analyze without fantasizing about a scenario that drains my energy.

[@Wenzes]

👏👏👏

[@anjithaa4521]

I am trying to do new things even I though I feel so exhausted by them.I understand that's the only way I'll grow.💚

[@d1538]

It is unconsciously and I do find myself digging and reading more under the surface. It is very exhausting and I am quite oblivious to all the stagnant dislike from others. I tell myself that as long as I treat them with respect I can not hold them accountable for their actions. It is a Rollercoaster of a ride.

[@freddynovember5842]

Absolutly. This is how I have always been able to be so confident that I can achieve. Even when I picked up and moved to Florida out of no where, I knew I was going to land in a position I would be able to use as a way to succeed. I always operate this way from my intuition. I want to say that these videos are so life changely amazing and I am super excited to learn more. That being said, I wanted to say thanx for being a KZbinr and realizing that we won’t even notice what you consider as your flaws. There’s to much wisdom here to see anything else.

[@trendsetter8138]

INFJ's are so multi skilled people and we take that for granted most of the time and we are so good at learning.

Today is world creativity and innovation day , INFJ is idealistic person , please remember this day

I have to say, you got your s*it together for somebody who appears that young. Congrats!

[@emiliedeangelis6268]

I had a boss in my 20s who explained me to myself, and this was the insight. She was wild to work for, but when she observed this, it hit me between the eyes. INFJs can’t stagnate, or it gets awful.

[@jim8590]

This is similar to an idea I had years ago: a rebel does not destroy the system; they study it, break it down, and personalize it

[@SweetandSassyRedhead]

As an INFJ with a corporate job and lots of creative endeavors I find a decent balance. You mentioned growing and I agree. Where I struggle is growing versus fixing myself. Growing up with some serious trauma, lots of therapy I can't seem to stop trying to "fix" me.

[@funny-memes-animals-daily]

Wenzes looks so happy sometimes and its so fulfilling

[@lynchfinn5738]

Your so powerful listening to. If it wasn't now, i would not have looked to find your channel. It is so encouraging to see the little things I've noticed, is so much deeper. I've discounted these things in myself to fit in. And it was a dead end.❤

[@fredengaymusic7242]

Thank wenzes! I remember to choose habits that i can sustain. I have a balance work and life balance. I also was able to release 7 songs with 250k listeners monthly as of today. Now i am trying to discover more healthy habits i can sustain.

The habit of creation is an important one. Externalizing ideas into visible action ("externally observable facts) is a super important one. Getting out of our own heads, and getting into the process of molding our life with the feedback, and new information we received from taking newer actions. Thanks a lot Wenzes! Brilliant video!

[@heyheyvicky1498]

When I have a goal/dream I can usually motivate myself every day anew, but since 1 or 2 months I totally ran out of energy and joy because of the ongoing lockdown and there is no end in sight, so it feels hopeless :/ I mean I'm an introvert and need a lot of downtime but only seeing someone every 2 weeks is so hard... this isolation is killig me and my goals :'(

[@Wenzes]

Find out if there is a way to connect with people more digitally...it makes a HUGE difference

[@fernandocastro3531]

As an infj this is a bit concerning because at some point we have to be happy with our accomplishments....just strange living in a cycle of having something held over your own head...infjs being our own worst critics...at what point can we find a way to be satisfied with our success?....

[@mikemoran4323]

I love you soon much. Im an INFJ . I keep finding myself become more drawn to your channel. It took me time to come around. I am finally convinced that the content you talk about is genuine and full of topics that I truly hold sacred. I trust that you have a great compassion for humanity. I am inspired by you. Thank you for the encouragement to get me out of my head . And connect with the outside world.

[@michaelcarlin777]

Yeah she understands us on a whole nother level.😂 like she speaks a language that organizes the mind. I’m convinced we could just play the video and even if not paying 100% attention it’s like her words tap into the subconscious 😂😊

[@gabrielpaduano1748]

INFJ male in 🇨🇦... A beautiful podcast from a beautiful woman 👩... Thank you 🙏 Wenzes! You are definitely very good at this... I encourage you to continue. Cheers 🥂

[@lindateuling7862]

As I listened to you, iit reminded me of things I had done before I knew about what INFJ meant. But explaining it in terms of "maximizing" clarifies it even better. It also helped a lot when you showed the relationship of FE and SE in the process. It helped me organize my mind better around what I was doing and in the process it made my own actions a lot easier for me to understand! ☺

[@Wenzes]

Listen to these videos sped up, it’s a lot easier to follow and comes across more logical.

[@drlarrymitchell]

"You watch those nature documentaries on the cable? You see the one about lions? You got this lion. He's the king of the jungle, huge mane out to here. He's laying under a tree, in the middle of Africa. He's so big, it's so hot. He doesn't want to move. Now the little lions come, they start messing with him. Biting his tail, biting his ears. He doesn't do anything. The lioness, she starts messing with him. Coming over, making trouble. Still nothing. Now the other animals, they notice this. They start to move in. The jackals; hyenas. They're barking at him, laughing at him. They nip his toes, and eat the food that's in his domain. They do this, then they get closer and closer, bolder and bolder. Till one day, that lion gets up and tears the shit out of everybody. Runs like the wind, eats everything in his path. Cause every once in a while, the lion has to show the jackals, who he is." -Christopher Walken, "Poolhall Junkies

[@Jewelsquiss]

Wow! Exactly

[@JaneDoe-ot8zt]

May I recommend pacing yourself while speaking. It's a lot and fast and as an Infj I'm riding this wave but it's like I'm on a roller coaster. Thank you.

Yes, pause between ideas otherwise its one long long ling sentence!!!!

Yeah the where you feel like you're not progressing it's a societal nature it's because you aren't they call it a rut sometimes you end up even going back if you're not careful because you end up disliking whatever you wants liked or thought would be good even though it should be likable depending upon things and sometimes people humans

Right you know ability how honorable you are how truthful you are how wise you are and knowledgeable this to help people perceive you is the way you perceive yourself and hold yourself to the standards your moral code year nobleness of one self your stand your ground way of telling the truth and standing behind the truth as if it was a conviction to stand behind it instead of that you're standing behind it simply because that's what is the truth and that's what that's what just you shouldn't be lying to other people people lie to people all the time why all I want to make myself seem at a higher status or have people think of me more or online to see people to hurt them or to just a lie for no reason at all this seems to be in most human nature I don't like to lie but I do lie sometimes because the societal nature of interaction makes me lie they make me lie about shit let's say something that's completely stupid or whatever but they're going to do something to you or whatever it's like man whatever you have to lie sometimes and it's not because of you personally unless you're a liar all the time but it's because of having to deal with everybody at once and the way things are in society that's bullshit we shouldn't have to do that end up having to lie so people can realize the truth or to have a bright outcome that because they think something or misunderstand something you're guilty look how many innocent people been locked up and literally for life and they give they come out and they give them our money and that is all they do they don't oh we're sorry you're free here's a bunch of the taxpayers money we're not paying for it you know so we're sorry we incarcerated you for 30 40 years for no reason at all because we blamed it on you and you can prove your innocence cuz we wouldn't let you cuz you're guilty until proven innocent here they got the best lawyers in any county or any state of any place anywhere hired so they can prosecute you with the best so you're odds are starting to get you from the beginning that's not a way things are supposed to be the way things are the way I found in forefathers intended them to be in the way they are a few different things and people just do the research they would know and they don't no matter how many times you tell him you tell him where to look everything they won't look they won't do the research or they do and then they don't say nothing or they they are two bald headed to realize the truth cuz of their own nature you know they'll never know anything then what they already think they know to the ones pushing the bad stuff and the ones that are actually telling the truth about it get ignore you will be deceived for how long and you ignore the Jesus Christ when he comes and you will think that the betrayers the right one and is the savior ideology there people that's human psyche 101 there and that's ignorance and then natural nature of ourselves

Have I ever used the optimize and push strategy consciously or unconsciously ? The most recent time I used it was back in February 2019 when I interviewed for the current job I have, and I did so consciously. I held onto that energy throughout the transition period and into beginning the new job. Yet I have settled in well, and settled down some since then.

[@ljsmooth69]

She's talking about looking at all the different possibilities that they could end up in you got to know the knowledge from both sides if you're talking to somebody that they're talking to you like say you know somebody's talking to you about their relationship that happens for some reason but make sure if you're in the situation like that make sure either know what you're talking about to claim that to be true or that your hypothesizing and it could or could not be true to you know someone but not enough to know what enough to be wise enough in it to give him proper knowledge so that might be your opinion and you're making up the hypothesis as you think of it isn't a hypothesis but it's an on the spot hypothesis instead of a carefully thought one like all these you know you have to give a educated guesses today not a guess at all

You know with all the sensing and that you know you can't control that really it's there it isn't or sometimes there and sometimes is it it's always there you have to learn to deal with the information or it's going to stress you out and over laundry cuz your mind is for the information of the topic at hand so I can process it fast cuz you're familiar with it that's what and it can cause your mind to race even faster than normal people that think their minds do race that's why they get off and thought that mind is racing on that thought if you break that thought it stops them and then either they have to stay literally even though they're not starting from the beginning to begin with it's like starting from the beginning all over again but at a different point at it and it changes the story some way somehow some shape and people are thinking you should never interrupt them unless you have to I think that's a bad thing I can't be totally positive on it but I'm pretty sure I'm sure that I believe that's what it is anyways

No matter how my new to how large the problem is you must face that problem you must deal with those problems you must remedy those problems you can't ignore them you can't leave them you have to address them and make a rational decision by stopping and smelling the roses thinking about it a little bit too not just Sam done I'm out of here because just like we can sporadically leave people and never feel sorry or care about them again that happens to us with anything we're fed up with it is a major major Ally and just a major major flaw at the same time equally you know quite frankly if you think about it and a sense of how bad it is how it's like impulse shopping you know I didn't post shopping is it's like that but reacting with somewhat of a coherency and knowledge of what you're doing but you just don't care anymore because you don't whatever it is it's causing all the drama I've done it probably a lot of people everywhere have done it but maybe us more than others the INFJs that is

Your life is moving forward as in going on but you're not progressing in a sense to basically your satisfaction and you're bored with the same old routine over and over again we need variety plain and simple if you find a job that has you doing multiple things in between that job you'll be more happy if you're that type of person cuz if it doesn't keep you got to be liking it and you too bad we can't go in there and just start talking to all the people there you know to see what kind of people they are and how what type of ethical work they have cuz if you work a job could be great most of it depends on the type of people you work with manual hard labor then you're not talking or anything you just working and trying to get done grueling work sucks that's what you got to do when you have a 7th grade education you don't have opportunities

[@AnyaAnnika67]

Optimisation is not Ti that's your Fi-Te axis and Se-Te divergent pairing speaking. Noooo, there's no Ni-Ti loop for the cognitive INFJ; Ni-Ti is the convergent primary seat of the ego. You can't ensure that you use the right functional combinational pairing; the pairing are what they are - you can't have an extroverted codec function assigned to an introverted perceiving function for example, it's simply illogical. I respect the work you're doing for ISFPs, I truly do but this is not INFJ content in the Jungian sense. The reason ISFPs don't move forward in a cognitive capacity, is if they haven't fully activated their Se-Te divergent pairing. INFJs due to the novelty of their Ni-Ti ARE actually creatures of consistently in the external realm whereas the ISFP craves new experiences & novelty. You're using Se-Te concrete example to illustrate your points about executing change, this isn't the INFJs Fe-Se divergent pairing.
