What a cliché ! I looked at it entirely for the second time, and I am an ENTP. It's the most interesting channel about MBTI but not only... Congratulations Alex!
This is just what I needed! I am an ENTP who grew up in evangelicalism and I see how I was overusing Fe as a teenager which kept me in church for so long despite always clashing with some of the beliefs/politics. I was 20 when I finally left. Now, I'm 24 and I can see the role of Ti in my decision to walk away and start to shed all these beliefs I had attached myself to in pursuit of answers and community. I always wanted to understand the world around me, so theology fulfilled that need (it was dogma what I had an issue with) until I started higher ed in sociology. I see myself leaning more into the Ti in these next few years as I try to find my way back to who I truly am after religion caged me in throughout childhood/adolescence.
Good job leaving an environment that didn't lift you up. I grew up Catholic. Left as well. After trying to chat with the priest during confession to ask questions instead of confess things (at 8 yrs old. I'm just saying. Confession as a kid is ridiculous). They didn't like it too much. My friends liked my jokes though. But anyway. Respect your journey and that you did what was best for you. I've also felt the lack of community challenging. Still do. But it's not as bad as the whole horse and pony show.
I'm a 24 ENTP too. I left Catholicism, but it is Ti that I overused. I couldn't suffer dogma. The discovery of paleontology, biology and endogenous retroviruses (and I'm keeping this short) have taught me that there is no God. Now, science is what gives me the answers I'm searching for. Yeah, I'm one of those Ti-focused ENTPs, I was therefore initially thought to be an INTP I'm now trying to develop Fe, which I'm still struggling with. I'm genuinely curious about Fe-ENTPs. I know some, and there are some key differences. Their vibe is more "feminine", they are excellent social chameleons, while, for instance, I would fulfill the debater stereotype, by daring to verbally contradict a whole group out of nowhere, even if I acknowledge that it is something that I should alleviate. You said that you sticked to these ideas in pursuit of "answers and community", the ENTPs I know (except the Fe-focused) would violently quit a group if they're not able to impose their views. I have also observed that non Fe-focused are easily mean towards other people and forceful Anyway, I'm happy for you that you did away with obscurantism and found back the path to intellectual freedom Sorry for my bad English, this is not my mother tongue
Im an ENTP and i too had struggles with beliefs, but instead of disregarding it, I instead did my own research on why this was the right path to follow and solidified my beliefs as a result....I then realized i only ever had problems because of the lack of knowledge the persons who were indoctrinating me had(that or they just didnt have the patience to properly break down the info) in the end i remained a christian of gods word and not by a denomination
I really think how your cognitive functions initially develop depends upon a few key factors: - what your parents/guardians’ types are - your gender - how you were raised and subsequently socialized Being a female ENTP meant I had an overemphasis on Fe from an early age compared to male ENTPs. I learned to curb behaviors that others found annoying and insensitive real quick and was expected to figure out and do what was best for the group, naturally. It made me a lot of friends but it also explains why I felt so inauthentic (and rebelled inexplicably) at times. I was also raised by mostly Si/Se-doms, so I was forced to develop Si much more thoroughly at a young age than I was inclined. Things like chores, cleaning up my messy room, creating a responsible routine with homework did not come naturally and it was truly only my desire to please (overemphasis on Fe) that made me do these things at all. Even still this is where most of my arguments with my ESTJ mother stemmed from. I would love to see a video on female ENTPs specifically because I feel like there’s a huge lack of discussion and representation for us and it seems like you would do a great job of breaking it down with nuance.
Thank you so much for this video. This is really helpful for ENTPs to realise that their journey doesn’t begin and end at always having the best ideas, and zipping through life by skill alone, but that we can really harness the Ne potential if we force ourselves to use that Si. I always always grew up being told that, but I (typically of an ENTP) turned my own life upside down multiple times in a few years and always questioned why I never got results. It wasn’t until I turned inward with that “fixing myself” mindset that I started getting my life in order and started actually achieving the things I and everyone else knew I could do. So many ENTPs problem solving is so outwardly focussed because they KNOW they’re smart, but this holier-than-thou attitude REALLY stumps them especially in their teen years. That story you gave about the positive impact an ENTP had on you is a perfect example of what Ne and Ti can do when you have ANY competence with Fe, because ultimately what we want is to be accepted; not just accepted as we are (we hate that shit) but appreciated for what we’ve done. We want to go out and make a positive impact. That’s the ultimate goal of our obsession with Ne. You’ve earned a sub ❤
You’re the first person with these videos who use the word rationalize correctly. I find that in a lot of ENTp videos they talk about how ENTp will rationalize and very rational, but that’s not the same thing as logical, which is what he is generally are. so thanks for that. lol
as someone who consistently tested as INFJ on the internet tests like 16 personalities, after being professionally typed I've come to find out I am ENTP. Once I started looking for more deep-dive analysis videos it began to make a lot of sense.
Same here. I was professionally typed INTP multiple times, and if I took an online test it would come INTP. Also, every time I take the MMPI (taking it many times) the results says that I am being dishonest...I would bet that happens a lot with ENTPs
ENTP here. Also AuHD, here 😄 I always wonder how the AuHD influences the cognitive functions. I have thoughts. But would love other people's thoughts, too. If anyone knows of anyone discussing this or wants to discuss it with me.
hey, came from your video explaining how to use systems thinking to better achieve your goals and even though that video is from a while back i came here to say thanks its very useful and impactful in my life. this may a random request but it would be cool if you could vlog yourself using systems and habits to progress within your creative endeavours
I study environmental sustainability and systems thinking is HIGHLY used in my field - check out these two FANTASTIC books on Systems Thinking: 1) Donna Meadows "Thinking in Systems," and 2) David Peter Stroh "Systems Thinking for Social Change." The latter one analyzes the first one but it's much more readable than the first. These books literally changed my entire undergrad experience in university. Wishing you well!
@@goldengirl8355 Yep, I would be long dead without it around. Or just better at making decisions, and living even more frugally, by necessity. Some of it is enough, though :)
Thanks for the video and especially explanation in beginning. I never knew that. Small small nitpick. I never wanna hear the phrase ‘ethical non monogamy’ again 😅…we need to stop making everything so PC -_- need a Superbad 2 or something like yesterday
True entp haven’t watched whole video and came to see comments first or ENTP Unique Gift
😂😂😂 100 💯
True. 😂😂😂. The video was just tiring..
did you read my mind i was like 5 seconds in and i started looking at the comments...

Bs. None of it matters. Read more. ENTP needs info. And doesn't accept the limited info it has. But don't throw out the First info
Only we can gauge first to newest info.

From my research on female ENTPs, I agree. I wish y'all didn't shield your NeTi though.
These videos have been incredibly helpful! Would love to see more content around the ENTP type.
Why do you want to see more about ENTPs?
Because, we're just that interesting...@@curiositycloset2359

INFJ is supposed to be the perfect love match for ENTP so your situation is interesting.
@GenRN LMAO!! My mother is an INFJ...
Love my Mother, not a huge fan of INFJs..or am I??? 🤣
@@briangallagher1704 so do you get along with your mom?
@@GenRN yes, I do
The voice fry drives me crazy, can't go through with this but still, thank you for your work.
Yeah, she should work on that.
ENTP here. Also AuHD, here 😄 I always wonder how the AuHD influences the cognitive functions. I have thoughts. But would love other people's thoughts, too. If anyone knows of anyone discussing this or wants to discuss it with me.
This is amazing and so informative wow thanks for this!
Do more entp content! Amazingly helpful

I’m an ENTP and I also grew up in Idaho!
Wow 🤩 this amazing ❤
Great video!
As an ENTP i lost interest 4 mins in, came to the comments got distracted and now im clicking another video😭
OMG same hereee, but idk whether I'm and ENTP or not T_T
Haha
😂😂
Damn, there is some Te on the roll ^^
And thank goodness we have some of it in our life!
@@goldengirl8355 Yep, I would be long dead without it around. Or just better at making decisions, and living even more frugally, by necessity.
Some of it is enough, though :)
Very nice 👍
Infj greetings
why is #3 on the bottom right? my brain hurts
I paused the vid just to find this comment like wtf
Because it is the opposite of ti, the one on top of it
Any other dubai based procrastinating entps in here? … perhaps we can build a startup together
You read my soul lol
You very smart
oof.. very accurate.
Thanks for the video and especially explanation in beginning. I never knew that. Small small nitpick. I never wanna hear the phrase ‘ethical non monogamy’ again 😅…we need to stop making everything so PC -_- need a Superbad 2 or something like yesterday
entp is very similar to intp
🧡
I think INXPs (mainly INFPs) are more probable to be the "black sheep" of the family, not ENTP. In my family the ENTP one is the "golden child"
Well isn’t that opinion based on your own experience?
I'm an ENTP and I was the black sheep.
I’m kinda the black sheep, just sick of all the family BS.
i agree , not only golden but also Diamond
"What makes ENTPs tick?"
1: Sex.

Nah, bacon and coffee
@@MycketTuff entp mistype
This is too focused and long for ENTP brain. Needs more kittens, historical anecdotes, philosophical analysis and explosions.
Had it on 1.5x
Yes yes yes, I can see how unbearable it will be from the first seconds
I hate history but ive not bad si, not Interested in biological parent.
Interesting, but the incessant ads will prevent me from listening to more videos-or even finishing this one.
Those aren't ads, you're just drifting off
Christian ENTP? That's an oxymoron.
Myers-Briggs is completely pseudo-science. You might as well ask someone for their astrology sign.
