We find ourselves trying to lower the bar as time goes on to the point where we're just getting by. As time goes on we realize, with added wisdom, just how alien we are. All the years of hardship in a world that does not feed ourselves back take such a toll that we become defeated. Disillusion takes hold like never before and no amount of adherence or compliance to any social expectations yield any results. We find ourselves utterly adrift, the only thing we're left with is our own clarity of what we actually are. No art, no ethical endeavor changes this as without true connection we fall away.

Yes, you are right, one of the difficulties of being an INFJ is needing alone time for many reasons but also needing human connection. We can stagnate on our own too much and become exhausted, diminished and frustrated in too much company.

I’ve found the obstacles to fulfilling what meaningful purpose I’d discovered can be varied. Painting and writing, I didn’t know how or have the time. I had in the end to disengage almost completely from the material world even though it’s hardly possible :)

What a content ! Subscribed ! Yes it was always for me important to have a strategic goal and filling life with meaning, otherwise it feels empty. And 100% about intangible thing !

Very timely on INFJ need for a goal, purpose. I am searching and feeling lost. Agree, others who share similar thoughts is key. It’s interesting to hear it. I wish this video was a bit longer, more in depth on this subject.

Yes Ni leads to future goals and we need this to motivate and excite us.

True, we need a future goal to aim for. Aimless we are despondent, depressed, and unmotivated. They need to be achievable though, or we risk the same emotional crash, or worse becoming some kind of sad Don Quixote figure - a literal joke to ourselves AND others. To new horizons!

Completely true: I am literally pouring coffee to get working on my five year goal. I seem unreasonably obsessed to everyone I know, but it's my happy place. :)

Well, I prefer to create ongoing systems directed to purposes that have been past selected by me as valuable. The problem I have with 'goals' is either accomplishing them and then having to create new ones or far worse, creating 'goals' to do stuff I don't want to do that I'll bail on anyway😉😉 That's always defeating and thus best avoided. BTW I finally put a review up for your new book. Sorry it falls very short of being a 'well written' review but since you are asking for the support, I finally got it done!

I know I am supposed to help kids and I am. I just don’t know of any other goals and I think that’s part of my depression and anxiety.
