“if we can imagine it, then it will become reality” it's 100% accurate. When im considering to purchase something, i will imagine as if i am using it. If i can't picture it, the item most likely doesn't suits me.
That's a good way to keep oneself from impulse buying. I often find myself satisfied with just knowing that something caught my eyes exists. In case of online shopping, except when i know for sure I need to get certain thing asap, I would just add to cart and leave those there. It's also to wait for vouchers or sales once I notice the patterns (like how Shopee push sales by having a sale wave at least once a month on the date when the numvers of the day and month matches, e.g. August 8th). I could talk myself out of impulse buying based on their practicality, costs, and place in my place and life. I also use similar guidelines when choosing gifts. If I still lean more one getting that thing after that inner debate, it's probably something I really want, need or both so I'm more likely to buy those. It's slightly different when it comes to buying something for charity, though. In this case, if the product meets my personal values first, and either aesthetic or practicality rating, and is reasonably priced, I'm very likely to buy it immediately. I don't recall impulse buying much and if I did and the stuff I got wasn't satisfactory, I didn't repeat the same mistake. Impulse contemplation and getting lost in thoughts, though, is another problem.😅
I love your explanations on differentiating INTJs with other types because you provide concrete examples. This is good stuff! Hoping to see more of these in your upcoming videos =D
Happy birthday! 30s are the best years in INTJ life i belive - we have developed our low stack functions, and life is kind of easier (i hope) before I learned MBTI concept I have been arguing with myself for a long time - it was Te and Fi clash, and now i'm able to recognize that because i still have that clashes for exapmle: Fi "I REALLY don't want to do it, I hate it" vs. Te "it has to be done to achieve something". After therapy it looks more like "I hate to do this, but i'll do it quick, so i dont have to deal with it anymore" just like Te and Fi come along together. So when i saw that "inside out" scene i laugh for a while, it was like 1:1 how it looks like inner dialogue inside my head. I think, that INTJ charisma and sense of humor comes from Se. I really can imagine that all functions just sitting and chilling in peace, and then comes Se in scarf and sunglasses: "we gonna do something cool".
Thank you and yup, my 30s have been the better part of my life so far. I agree that Se is the unsung hero for INTJs and we really do develop it pretty late. But, once Se is activated, life gets a lot more exciting 😂
HBD Jon! 35 times around the sun is such a long trip. My mom is an ISTJ and I wasnt certain until recently. She usually justifies her reasoning using examples from past experiences.
Thank you for the birthday shoutout! All the ISTJs that I know usually are really good at listening so I'm hoping your mom was just as good for you growing up 😀
@@justcallmejon22 well, growing up with an unhealthy ISTJ is not easy. They could get too restrictive until they see that everything's under control. But she learned how to listen eventually.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! You have two good years left. 37 is the age you realize you are no longer 25! 😉 Have a fun day. I hope you've carefully planned some spontaneous fun!
The bear vs. goat example FINALLY explained for me the operative difference between leading with Ni vs Ti. Thank you so much! I can now actually explain why I’m INTJ rather than just saying, “well, I always test that way”…
Happy birthday and congratulations on all of those achievements.🎉 That skit shows how my mom usually get me into doing something she thinks is a good idea irl. She shows a lot of similarities to an ESTP.
@@justcallmejon22 I suspect her to be an ESTP. We seems to have the 1st and 4th functions inverted: She can understand the way I see things but it take her sometimes. I can vibe with her but it also took a lot of persuasion and time. She is easily distracted by things happens in physical world, running around dealing with spontaneous tasks all the time, while I'm distracted by thoughts, ideas and concepts and can get lost in my thoughts for hours. She's good at dealing with practical and situational issues but lack the foresight while I'm more focused on dealing with the root cause and sustainability in the long run and more likely to come up with a more immediate solution much later. Together, we work quite well as a problem solving team when our emotions don't get in the way. We are both similar in the fact that our immediate response to an issue is to find a solution so we must have similar problem solving and get things done functions in the 1st or 2nd place. Mine is the 2nd as I enjoy getting lost in my thoughts and learning about topics that caught my interest yet turn on my "get things done" mode when there's a task to get done to the point of skipping meals or sleep. She's extroverted, as in being outgoing, preferring being around people and focusing on and easily distracted by the outside and physical world. That's why I put Se as her 1st function. Regarding emotions, it seems like she has Fe lower in her function stack as she seems to be better at showing sympathy towards others but can't seems to understand emotions on a deeper level. It's evident when I tried to emotionally connect with her and tried my best to convey my thoughts and feelings. More often than not, she pays more attention on how my external expressions and what's socially/ culturally considered appropriate instead of what I'm trying to convey, and often advises me to just take them lightly or brushing them off as me being overly dramatic. She's more externally expressive than me but also complains that people are too emotional. Also, she talks a lot more than I do despite us being both women (who have a tendency to talk more). She often talks about work or trivial things. I usually do the same when it comes to work or things related to us, or on a random topic I'm intrigued by or is interested in. Small talks come naturally to her while I need a script like those practice conversations in a language learning textbooks. She also more opinionated and can be more openly judgemental while I often see things more objectively and wait for more information before making an opinion. As far as I currently know, this seems to show the differences in Ti and Te. I began to psychoanalyze her after realizing how similar one of my favorite character is to my mom. I'm still new to this cognitive functions and the theories behind them so this is a tentative conclusion.
“If we can imagine it, then it will become reality” working on a swarm robot system with mesh like communication I thought would be neat for mass exploration and possible rescue I imagined it and we are ahead of schedule
@@justcallmejon22 ya it doesn’t seem so bad and it’s fun to work on, the key is to have the robots communicate through eachother allowing robots to be further apart and still communicate like Robot A wants to send data to robot C but they are too far from each-other, however robot B is in the middle of them so robot B will relay the signal. The hardest part gonna be making a coordinate positioning system that is shared between all robots (we can’t use GPS) but I have ideas for how to make it work. Some professionals I asked said it wasn’t possible but didn’t want to elaborate why, but to me it seems straight forward. Once we prove that works we can get more funds to make it more application specific, and add cameras and possibly object detection and other features. I am in college btw I am hoping this project helps me get a job after.The economy kinda bad rn so I am trying to look into improving myself and my job hunting abilities and skill sets.
I wonder if including Permaculture will ping this video in the algorithm for that community. I see it in the same vein as electric cars. Its a fundamental change we need to have. One day capitalism will end, just like everything else. The only question is if we ,humans, will be around to see it.
Gratz & Happy Birthday ! What ? 35 ? I thought you were on your twenties. I have this impression most of INTJ look 10 years younger than their real age. I will get 34 the next month, and people always though I was 10 years younger. Great video, your way of explaining is unique and fun.
As a Ti Dom, I would also say that my primary question is why. I think that why might be defined differently depending on who is using the word, though, while that may still be the most accurate word. When I use the word 'why', I mean 'what is the cause or reason for a thing to happen'? I'm looking for a systemic relationship. But why is still the question that applies better than what, because we're talking about causation - why did something happen, not what happened or what could be done about it. I guess, perhaps, you could release the Ti question as "what is the cause", but that's a rephrase of the question 'why' and the reason is equally valid when considered next to the question of purpose. I think (but please correct me if I'm wrong, so I can learn something!) that Ni dom means 'what is the purpose of a given thing' when they say why. I think they're going down a path of essence and archetypal nature of a thing, rather than a systemic nature like Ti would. That's my take, but, of course, leave it to the Ti Dom to follow a great video with, "well, actually, let's clarify these terms"... 😂 Thanks for the video, your content is great!
The more I learn and witness Ti, the more I realize how closely it resembles Ni but with a different focus. Maybe that's why INTP and INTJs are so great together 😁
I think you're absolutely right! I think the resemblance between the two functions causes a ton of confusion on the internet, with people attaching behaviors to thought processes and conflating Ti and Ni, bc the users do a lot of the same things, but for slightly different reasons. We can easily look the same, while thinking very differently. I think it adds more confusion when you consider that many descriptions of a function give an explanation that one person might interpret one way and another interprets another way, so two people using different functions suddenly believe they're doing the same thing. An example is knowing the outcome of a thing - Ni can know this based on its comprehension of the essence of a thing, the archetypal nature tells it what the thing will do (I think, but if I'm wrong, please correct me and I'll learn something!); Ti knows the logical emergent - if the system is set up like this, and it's parts are defined this way, then obviously that will be the result of it being activated. They're actually doing two different things, but if asked, they would both say they know what will happen and get ripped as Ni; alternatively, I've seen Ni described as a function that can shift into other people's mental perspectives to understand them and the impact they create through a form of abstract patterning within the Ni user's own mind. The thing is, Ti can do this too, but Ti is asking questions and making arguments within its own mind to determine what kind of mental thought structure the other person is using to come to decisions and understanding. Some manifestations of Ti can very easily get inside another person's head and predict how he will behave or what he will want, but it's all based on constructing or finding an already existing mental framework for a person who matches that pattern. The Ti is creating a framework of thought principles that operates like a lengthy logical syllogism to explain the way each person thinks or each philosophy is constructed, and then it tests that framework for logical consistency within the framework itself (the principles match with each other logically or they don't, but that doesn't necessarily relate to the Ti user's or anyone else's framework to determine whether it's correct - is more about testing validity). So if the Ti is doing this all the time anyway, just for the sake of understanding the world, it becomes easy to do it just to understand the other person's perspective bc it's natural anyway. Then the Ti user says he can perspective shift and gets typed as Ni, and his experience of Ti goes on to confuse the anyway limited understanding in the community about Ni. The point is, many of the things written on the internet that are attributed to Ni can easily be done by Ti, but for doesn't reasons and in different ways, but going by behaviors will cause you get mistypes, because, like you said, Ti and Ni can behave very similarly. What is so helpful in this - what you do so well - is explanation with examples about how the Ni or Ti Dom thinks about a given situation, what the process of thinking is and how the function goes about coming to a conclusion or behavior, because that's where the true comparison is. I really like your content because it's so useful in parsing out what Ni is actually doing, and laying out what it is actually like to be in your head. HeartofMichi does the same thing for Ne on her channel, and both of you produce content that is incredibly helpful in understanding what these functions are really like, so thank you!
I have had. INTP male friends all throughout my adult life. We can totally Spar intellectually, and still keep it friendly. They also just come up with Wackadoo ideas that are fun to contemplate as long as I'm in a sitting around and laugh it up mood. But if I'm in my trying to get stuff done mood, I give them an annoyed glance and go back to what I'm doing. I've also never been able to truly be romantic, even though I love them dearly and really respect their minds, there's no sustained physical chemistry. And very often they smell bad to me.😮 When you said that even you thought of your friend as a nerd, I almost spit out my drink.😂
Wow, going around the sun 35 times in a week is impressive. Ok I know what you meant, but still the way you said it made me chuckle. If you stayed in earth orbit, going around the sun 35 times a week would be a velocity of 14,560 km/s minimum, not counting breaks. That is nearly 5% the speed of light. Well in any case, Happy belated birthday!
Happy Birthday!!! 🎉🎉🎉 I also turned 35 this year! January baby 🥳 And it is a lot! The number 35 just looks old. Like... okay I can't explain it, but 42 sounds younger than 35 lol. I think cuz odd numbers feel sorta "frumpy" to me. Like round and boring. Blah. But even numbers are sharp and sleek. Edgy and quick. 😜 Oof. Just ignore me 😅
Happy Belated and I agree! 35 is like, mid of a decade but 40 is just the beginning. I appreciate getting older though, I get more comfortable with life every year that passes by 😀.
5:29, i agree he is an intj, but here it could also be that he has si last. You can’t immediately rule out si. Entp’s are one of the most innovative types. He can’t be an enfp however, too logical for that, and he is very Te. Application first. Fast innovation. Ti users are far more methodical in practice. Also, he seems to be a user of Fi in his interviews. He knows what is best, while an Ne Fe user would like to outsource the knowledge what is best, if not outsource it physically, outsource it to a logical framework Ti to proof a situation of arbitrage.
I like the goal of this video, even before watching this, I'd like to write down my thoughts about this topic based n my personal experiences and thoughts: - I like to use the % values of the MBTI test and my reaction to more extreme situations -> my % values are qute at the extremes regarding my 'I' and 'J' (90%+) and only 56% 'N' and 60% 'T' - the extreme % values are out of questioning, those are mine and stable, but the lower values... I've checked on the friend types and found some description that are closer to me sometimes, than the INTJ description, still, the INTJ parts are slightly more often, but I can more easily 'swap' my behaviour through persona changes in specific situations - looking back after watching your video about the topic of 'mama is out'... yes, I had those and yes, previously I thought I was depressed, but wasn't exactly sure, even tho somethimes I had thoughts about suicide, those thought processes ended up with the result of: naah, I fkin like to exist, I want to know more about how stuff works even if I feel weird at the moment.... then 'mama came back' and stuff got done - one of the key details about finding out if I'm truly an INTJ is that I so much hate details and menial tasks... but when I do them, I do them effectively and efficiently
I'm glad to hear that you like to exist brotha! I'd say take the percentage with a grain of salt because your feelings and how you engage with the world fluctuate daily. Either than that, keep doing you INTJ King ✊
After a few days of gathering informations I just figured out that I probably have ADHD (inattentive or combined). Have you expierience with it or heard from friends? I didn't know why procrastination was such a big problem for me. And now I have a possible reason. INTJ are supposed to be confident and do stuff and I was falling short on both. Anyway. Happy rotation-day and keep up the good stuff. :-)
Thank you for the bday shoutout! I take daily medication for ADHD (combined I think) and it's helped a lot when it works, and horrible when it works too well (can't concentrate). Before medication, I advise therapy and or retaking the MBTI test. Medication is no joke to the body so please only take it if you need it. ✊
@@justcallmejon22 Thanks for your concern, but lets just say I do need it and I'm quite certain with INTJ and ADHD. Still try to get a diagnosis, but that takes time.
I can't lie, me too, lol. I went through several existential episodes throughout my life that it felt like the DBZ announcer was narrating my life, "On the next episode of Dragon Ball Z," that propagated the drama. I've been down that road googling at 2am, 'How to prove you're real.' All we have to rely on is cognito ergo sum-"I think, therefore, I am." If we all inevitably go through midlife crises, better to get out of our system early. I believe it's a coping mechanism that we develop to better prepare for the future.
The company a person owns isn't dictated by cognitive functions but I imagine Si being restaurant owners, hair stylists, ebay sellers, etc. Things that are already established but they make better or more efficient ✊
Still wondering if my husband is an ISTJ and INTJ. He says he thinks he is an ISTJ, but was once an INTJ. But I have a hard time believing people change their MBTI. The main confusion comes in with him enjoying physical activities when he does go out and the laziness which is typical of INTJs of spending more time figuring out how to avoid doing something than would actually take to go do something, He also liked the idea of being the puppet master pulling the strings behind the scenes when it came to doing the tech for his high school. But he has a huge aversion to trying new things and is a huge believer in the value of tradition over innovation.
You should look into socionics. MBTI got Si completely wrong, that may be the reason, your husband isn’t sure. Si is actually about comfort in the present moment and does not have anything to do with tradition. Ni on the other hand is completely detached from the present moment. It sees the present not really as present but rather as the gap in between past and future. Ni-dom lives in their head, Si-dom lives in the moment. Si is very good at listening to their body. It is also very good at decorating, or making the house look pleasant. Ni might appreciate a good looking house, but doesn’t really see the point in doing all that work, since in their mind it is completely unnecessary. Ni-dom is always thinking/imagining, Si-dom is always in tact with their body’s needs and know exactly when they should sleep or eat or whatever. Ni forgets to eat, sleep, they even forget that they have to go to the toilet. Again, you should look into socionics‘ description of Si and Ni.
People's type don't change over time so I agree that he was either mistyped or still is. My ISTJ friend told me recently that he can relate closely to what I say in my videos (because ISTJ/INTJs are similar) so again, I'm not surprised when they get mistyped. I do recommend him watching ISTJ content creators because you can see clearly the difference in insight Si have compared to Ni in certain situations.
Sorry, but Elon Musk is an INTP not INTJ. He wants to save humanity, that is more Ne and Fe than Ni and Fi. I would link you to a video by CS Joseph where he types Elon, but I'm not sure if RUclips will allow links in the comments.
The video was probably made a few months ago; added some minor details, posted it. Probably doesn't use P.D., either - - so he may or may not know. Might not even care, tbh.
@@justcallmejon22 Dang. I don't have Twitter, either. 💀 Honestly, though... I wouldn't mind him being either of the two, however, some INTPs do get mistyped - mainly because of how heavily they can lean into their shadow type (which, if healthy, isn't a bad thing in INTPs case, nor do they themselves find it to be bad). Imagine being able to comfortably switch between Ti-Te/Fi-Fe. If the MBTI acts like the scale everyone says it is, I feel as though INTP-INTJ would be the biggest beneficiaries from their shadows. 😌

An example is knowing the outcome of a thing - Ni can know this based on its comprehension of the essence of a thing, the archetypal nature tells it what the thing will do (I think, but if I'm wrong, please correct me and I'll learn something!); Ti knows the logical emergent - if the system is set up like this, and it's parts are defined this way, then obviously that will be the result of it being activated. They're actually doing two different things, but if asked, they would both say they know what will happen and get ripped as Ni; alternatively, I've seen Ni described as a function that can shift into other people's mental perspectives to understand them and the impact they create through a form of abstract patterning within the Ni user's own mind. The thing is, Ti can do this too, but Ti is asking questions and making arguments within its own mind to determine what kind of mental thought structure the other person is using to come to decisions and understanding. Some manifestations of Ti can very easily get inside another person's head and predict how he will behave or what he will want, but it's all based on constructing or finding an already existing mental framework for a person who matches that pattern. The Ti is creating a framework of thought principles that operates like a lengthy logical syllogism to explain the way each person thinks or each philosophy is constructed, and then it tests that framework for logical consistency within the framework itself (the principles match with each other logically or they don't, but that doesn't necessarily relate to the Ti user's or anyone else's framework to determine whether it's correct - is more about testing validity). So if the Ti is doing this all the time anyway, just for the sake of understanding the world, it becomes easy to do it just to understand the other person's perspective bc it's natural anyway. Then the Ti user says he can perspective shift and gets typed as Ni, and his experience of Ti goes on to confuse the anyway limited understanding in the community about Ni.
The point is, many of the things written on the internet that are attributed to Ni can easily be done by Ti, but for doesn't reasons and in different ways, but going by behaviors will cause you get mistypes, because, like you said, Ti and Ni can behave very similarly.
What is so helpful in this - what you do so well - is explanation with examples about how the Ni or Ti Dom thinks about a given situation, what the process of thinking is and how the function goes about coming to a conclusion or behavior, because that's where the true comparison is. I really like your content because it's so useful in parsing out what Ni is actually doing, and laying out what it is actually like to be in your head. HeartofMichi does the same thing for Ne on her channel, and both of you produce content that is incredibly helpful in understanding what these functions are really like, so thank you!
😂😂😂 love the skit!
Thank you 😅
I have had. INTP male friends all throughout my adult life. We can totally Spar intellectually, and still keep it friendly. They also just come up with Wackadoo ideas that are fun to contemplate as long as I'm in a sitting around and laugh it up mood. But if I'm in my trying to get stuff done mood, I give them an annoyed glance and go back to what I'm doing.
I've also never been able to truly be romantic, even though I love them dearly and really respect their minds, there's no sustained physical chemistry. And very often they smell bad to me.😮
When you said that even you thought of your friend as a nerd, I almost spit out my drink.😂
"they often smell bad to me" is one of the most INTJ thing to say 😂😂
Wow, going around the sun 35 times in a week is impressive. Ok I know what you meant, but still the way you said it made me chuckle.
If you stayed in earth orbit, going around the sun 35 times a week would be a velocity of 14,560 km/s minimum, not counting breaks. That is nearly 5% the speed of light.
Well in any case, Happy belated birthday!
Thank you! 😁
Happy Birthday!!! 🎉🎉🎉
I also turned 35 this year! January baby 🥳
And it is a lot! The number 35 just looks old. Like... okay I can't explain it, but 42 sounds younger than 35 lol. I think cuz odd numbers feel sorta "frumpy" to me. Like round and boring. Blah. But even numbers are sharp and sleek. Edgy and quick. 😜
Oof. Just ignore me 😅
Happy Belated and I agree! 35 is like, mid of a decade but 40 is just the beginning. I appreciate getting older though, I get more comfortable with life every year that passes by 😀.
Happy Birthday! 😊
Thank you!! 😊
5:29, i agree he is an intj, but here it could also be that he has si last. You can’t immediately rule out si. Entp’s are one of the most innovative types. He can’t be an enfp however, too logical for that, and he is very Te. Application first. Fast innovation. Ti users are far more methodical in practice. Also, he seems to be a user of Fi in his interviews. He knows what is best, while an Ne Fe user would like to outsource the knowledge what is best, if not outsource it physically, outsource it to a logical framework Ti to proof a situation of arbitrage.
I think we should just get someone to tweet him to figure out what he really is to end this debate 😆
I like the goal of this video, even before watching this, I'd like to write down my thoughts about this topic based n my personal experiences and thoughts:
- I like to use the % values of the MBTI test and my reaction to more extreme situations -> my % values are qute at the extremes regarding my 'I' and 'J' (90%+) and only 56% 'N' and 60% 'T'
- the extreme % values are out of questioning, those are mine and stable, but the lower values... I've checked on the friend types and found some description that are closer to me sometimes, than the INTJ description, still, the INTJ parts are slightly more often, but I can more easily 'swap' my behaviour through persona changes in specific situations
- looking back after watching your video about the topic of 'mama is out'... yes, I had those and yes, previously I thought I was depressed, but wasn't exactly sure, even tho somethimes I had thoughts about suicide, those thought processes ended up with the result of: naah, I fkin like to exist, I want to know more about how stuff works even if I feel weird at the moment....
then 'mama came back' and stuff got done
- one of the key details about finding out if I'm truly an INTJ is that I so much hate details and menial tasks... but when I do them, I do them effectively and efficiently
I'm glad to hear that you like to exist brotha! I'd say take the percentage with a grain of salt because your feelings and how you engage with the world fluctuate daily. Either than that, keep doing you INTJ King ✊
Happy Birthday! Pisces? Has anyone combined mbti with zodiac?
Aquarius and I'm sure an xNFx has done some research in the connect before 😅
After a few days of gathering informations I just figured out that I probably have ADHD (inattentive or combined). Have you expierience with it or heard from friends?
I didn't know why procrastination was such a big problem for me. And now I have a possible reason. INTJ are supposed to be confident and do stuff and I was falling short on both.
Anyway. Happy rotation-day and keep up the good stuff. :-)
Thank you for the bday shoutout! I take daily medication for ADHD (combined I think) and it's helped a lot when it works, and horrible when it works too well (can't concentrate). Before medication, I advise therapy and or retaking the MBTI test. Medication is no joke to the body so please only take it if you need it. ✊
@@justcallmejon22 Thanks for your concern, but lets just say I do need it and I'm quite certain with INTJ and ADHD.
Still try to get a diagnosis, but that takes time.
Dang, both of us are hitting the 35-44 age bracket this year. Enter midlife crisis.
I go through an existential crisis once a quarter so it's nothing new! It only means that we have a lot more experience to help out younger INTJs 😀
I can't lie, me too, lol. I went through several existential episodes throughout my life that it felt like the DBZ announcer was narrating my life, "On the next episode of Dragon Ball Z," that propagated the drama.
I've been down that road googling at 2am, 'How to prove you're real.' All we have to rely on is cognito ergo sum-"I think, therefore, I am."
If we all inevitably go through midlife crises, better to get out of our system early. I believe it's a coping mechanism that we develop to better prepare for the future.
If a person has Si what sort of companies would he be owning?
The company a person owns isn't dictated by cognitive functions but I imagine Si being restaurant owners, hair stylists, ebay sellers, etc. Things that are already established but they make better or more efficient ✊
Still wondering if my husband is an ISTJ and INTJ. He says he thinks he is an ISTJ, but was once an INTJ. But I have a hard time believing people change their MBTI. The main confusion comes in with him enjoying physical activities when he does go out and the laziness which is typical of INTJs of spending more time figuring out how to avoid doing something than would actually take to go do something, He also liked the idea of being the puppet master pulling the strings behind the scenes when it came to doing the tech for his high school. But he has a huge aversion to trying new things and is a huge believer in the value of tradition over innovation.
You should look into socionics. MBTI got Si completely wrong, that may be the reason, your husband isn’t sure. Si is actually about comfort in the present moment and does not have anything to do with tradition. Ni on the other hand is completely detached from the present moment. It sees the present not really as present but rather as the gap in between past and future. Ni-dom lives in their head, Si-dom lives in the moment. Si is very good at listening to their body. It is also very good at decorating, or making the house look pleasant. Ni might appreciate a good looking house, but doesn’t really see the point in doing all that work, since in their mind it is completely unnecessary. Ni-dom is always thinking/imagining, Si-dom is always in tact with their body’s needs and know exactly when they should sleep or eat or whatever. Ni forgets to eat, sleep, they even forget that they have to go to the toilet.
Again, you should look into socionics‘ description of Si and Ni.
Well said ✊
People's type don't change over time so I agree that he was either mistyped or still is. My ISTJ friend told me recently that he can relate closely to what I say in my videos (because ISTJ/INTJs are similar) so again, I'm not surprised when they get mistyped. I do recommend him watching ISTJ content creators because you can see clearly the difference in insight Si have compared to Ni in certain situations.
Fenomenal book. Birthday present?
Recommendation from an ENTJ 😀
Sorry, but Elon Musk is an INTP not INTJ. He wants to save humanity, that is more Ne and Fe than Ni and Fi. I would link you to a video by CS Joseph where he types Elon, but I'm not sure if RUclips will allow links in the comments.
I think someone should just tweet Mr. Musk and ask him 😂
Include the INFJ
As in do a comparison video?
cool video, but elon is INTP.
The video was probably made a few months ago; added some minor details, posted it. Probably doesn't use P.D., either - - so he may or may not know. Might not even care, tbh.
I don't think an unregulated anonymous democratic majority isn't the best way to guess other peoples mbti.
We should ask him. Whoever has twitter, let's clear this up dabate once and for all 😂
@@justcallmejon22 Dang. I don't have Twitter, either. 💀
Honestly, though... I wouldn't mind him being either of the two, however, some INTPs do get mistyped - mainly because of how heavily they can lean into their shadow type (which, if healthy, isn't a bad thing in INTPs case, nor do they themselves find it to be bad).
Imagine being able to comfortably switch between Ti-Te/Fi-Fe. If the MBTI acts like the scale everyone says it is, I feel as though INTP-INTJ would be the biggest beneficiaries from their shadows. 😌
