Yep, stood up to me as well. Very true. And logical, but somehow others have a hard time seeing it On their own so I may have to explicitly use this one.
Why resisting ? I'm an INFP and I love when someone is actually capable of debating my beliefs without saying bullshit ; it makes me evolve as a person and... many others things. And I love debates ( ***true*** debates, not hidden monologues where nobody talk and nobody listen ), also. It's maybe because I'm not resisting that it doesn't offend me when someone is doing so... dunno. ( Sorry, my english is horrible >< )
As an INFP I can say it's completely true. My ENTP friend always trolls me when I'm talking about something I care deeply. It used to bother me a lot but I have come to appreciate lately. It's good to not take things too seriously all the time.
@@Randomstu1988 yep! This for me. Even if I’m the one telling me what to do, the whole “ nobody tells me what to do” clicks in... re OP’s version, Maybe it’s being older or something but my brain overrides the feeling good part.. I can still do stupid things and feel awful about them, and I don’t even get to feel good part. It makes no sense that it can still happen but I guess not everything is logical. Ugghhhhh
I wanted to make that series on all of the 16 types in two minutes for quite a long time. I often find it funny to see how certain types absolutely love it to be short and sweet and well within the confines of their attention span! ~Nathan
@@Chas-q4w Is that even a question 🤣🤣🤣 that's one of our primary functions however it's never narcissistic always critical and factual with a hint of the delusional 😁
I think ENTPs are one of the easiest types to spot. Normally very intense and extrovert people makes me feel very introvert and get caught in boring-mode and long back to my book and my teacup, but the ENTPs for some reason can make me feel fun and goofy and I get like double the amount of "extrovertedness-patience" than with other types. Even the individuals that seems to get on many other people's nerves. So if someone makes me feel "wow, you're really intense and annoying but adorable" I know it's an ENTP.
My younger brother is ENTP. I'm INTJ. When we were kids, he would often speak on my behalf and help me understand others, especially their different point of view because I was very much black and white, and saw the world as such. When it came to new, especially sudden experiences (new places, people, food), he would sort of "test the ice" for me, and I would follow his lead. I helped him with homework or house chores because he would absolutely loath doing them (and still does). Our dynamic can be pretty explosive if we get into an argument because he will, not might, but WILL, pick apart my beliefs and systems I've put up for myself, then I get angry and don't talk to him in weeks. But when we argue or talk about something completely weird/cryptic/abstract/hypothetical, that's when I love his company, his dumb sense of humor, charisma and quick wits. He's arrogant af but ultimately he has a heart of gold. And yes, I would help him get rid of a corpse, no questions asked, if it came to that lol
Thank you!!! Its not just me! Although being aware of the forer effect and barnum states im always try to objective and not get too excited but the man straight up quotes internal monologues from my youth. Its bizarre
Bruh, i did my personaliity test for the first time a few days ago, now all am watching is videos like this until i get bored and move on lol. I fainaly know why i am the way i am. i sent this video to my family and friends so they can finally understand me lol. This shit makes me think we really do live in a simulation, but thats another subject lol
@@bambangkusuma9296 it depends on the situaton.. I myself am an ENTP and I am a perfectionist in things I care but if I dont care then I do it very sloppy lol
@@essymessy2534 Maybe I mean debate? English is not my first language..so maybe I confuse the words. When I look it up it says that it is called debate when it's formal? "argue" sounds too agressive what I mean and debate too formal. Maye discussion is what I mean? What I mean is a person who does not easily agree with things. However, when I look up that meaning it says disagreeable means unpleasant (rather than a person who does often not agree). Ah..english is a confusing language sometimes I confused the words! I mean friendly disagree and then words interaction. If you call this debate..then does that not mean like an official debate? So debate can
@@PowerRedBullTypology I get your point about entps, that we don't agree easily. I was just being confusing, sorry. What I meant was to not agree with you so as to prove your point. It sounds really confusing writing it out like this, but it made sense in my head yesterday. Again sorry for the confusion
How to spot an ENTP: -> Get into a discussion with them -> Get confused or annoyed ->When they notice they gonna say smth like "I'm just messing with you", "Well, whatever" or "I mean, you do you, you know" -> Is it a boy? A girl? Pikachu? No! It's an ENTP! Congrats me mate, you found us.
In my experience, the fastest way to spot an ENTP is to mention the local funeral home is having a BBQ and to wait for the one person who asks what’s in the hot dogs.
As an entp when I meet another entp we are so alike in the way we act and talk but typically share very few of the same interest not to say that we don't find interest in why the other has a certain interest. As a former air traffic controller in the Army I found that I ran into more entps in that line of work more than any other due to the fact of what the occupation requires at a cognitive level which is high level situational awareness and the ability to adapt and improvise on a split second.
I don't know how much air traffic control is similar to just flying a jet, but I've always been fascinated by flying a fighter jet, hell...even thought of joining the air force. Maybe in future I'll race plains or bikes in Moto GP.
@@JstJaybeingJay so if you're flying an aircraft you're responsible for your aircraft as an air traffic controller I have to see the big picture I might have 15 to 20 aircraft in my airspace and I have to deconflict, organize, and coordinate movement handoffs and transitions
Yes!! This is exactly my ENTP husband! Except he was raised by a very intense INFP so he fortunately got a deep value system ingrained in him whether he liked it or not, despite his constant challenging and arguing! But the point about taking them seriously but not personally is exactly what I try telling people ALL THE TIME! His arguments are always completely separated from the people he talks to but it’s hard for some people to realize that sometimes
I think I've only ever came across one ENTP in my life and it was quite an experience. He was a classmate of mine in U.S. History and we sat next to each other. I ALWAYS got a kick seeing him just debate with the teacher and challenge her just for the heck of it 😂 From an INFJ, I just want to say to the ENTPs out there reading this: I appreciate your quirkiness and intellect. Continue being you 👌
History class was difficult as an ENTP. The facts were very easy to learn, but when the teacher gave their opinions on motive of historical figures I couldn't "just accept" that. It NEEDED to be looked at with fresh eyes, to question what people were thinking, trying to see through the eyes of context of the time (too often Modern motivations were given to past events...)
As an INFJ, I've always been fond of ENTP characters..and it has been like this since forever - even before being familiar with the MBTI. 🌚 A natural pull or beckoning, I reckon.
We don't always know. And it's frustrating as hell. Often times once we think we've figured it out another contradictory point of view will come in to play and we MUST consider that also. Imagine a rabbit hole branching off into different directions with each branch futher branching off... on and on and on. This is the ENTP.
ENTP is an interesting one. My ex husband who’s an ENTP wants to take our kids on a 16hr long hike. He wants to do this hike all in one day. He’s also about 150lbs overweight and has bad knees. He gets these grand ideas, lol! When we were married I couldn’t get him to go for a walk with me even if my darn life depended on it! I go for an hour walk almost every day and I wouldn’t even want to try doing a 16hr hike all in one day! My kids all know how ambitious he is whilst still in the dreaming phase of things. They won’t go along with his big, and quite frankly HILARIOUS, plan. Still love him and all you crazy ENTP types though! All my favourite comedians are ENTPs! You guys have the absolute BEST sense of humour, imo!
it makes sense that under stress that Si inferior pops and makes you go crazy over the Ne possibilities you just gotta somehow get used to doing these small pointless tasks, apparently theyre important
Impressive 2 min summary. The "like to provide people with good experiences" is very true too, and to do so I feel we connect a lot on emotional levels with people. Which isn't something you usually read on the random stereotyped summaries you get online.
I mean I found this interesting and everything, totally agree with you. Female entp here. But like, you're eyebrows are so distracting that all I can think about now is how much they will (and you) could possibly resemble either Gandalf or Dumbledore if they (your eyebrows) are left untouched/rimmed. Which is a cool look imo like who doesn't want to be Gandalf or Dumbledore no offense. And yes I was reading the comments while listening to the video. While also wondering if this is something I should even comment but whatever here it is. You've got the eyebrows of a wizard Harry.
You're so right about the bureaucracy. My ENTP partner pushes any and all forms on to me to fill out, the latest one being the census. He's been slowly learning how to lower the trolling around me (INFP) over the last 10 years, but on Discord, it's still "anything goes".
You earn a new subscriber here simply because you clarify the streotype of the ENTPs. I truly hate the belief that ENTP like to debates just for the sake of it. That's totally misleading and I never like that, nor do I believe real ENTPs (based on cognitive functions) are like that because we have Ne-Fe as the dominant pairing. Social harmony is important to us and it's actually irritating to see someone causing a disturbance in the social environment around us. So, there's no way we'll do it ourselves. Unless there are things that need to be clarified with logical arguments (which is rare), there's no point in starting a debate just to disturb others. That's actually stupid. Harmony is the best. Just doesn't mean that we'll keep quiet when someone is behaving too stupidly.
Yeah even tho there's alot of stereotypes with us I think they're genuinely interesting I think part of what makes them so fun is because they know the truth but still love possibilities and harmony they have this weird habit of just and dancing around almost every angle
Purposely annoying the crap out of some people while simultaneously amusing the crap out of me. One should enjoy a good brain-poking to get along well with them.
Hello! I have been an active subscriber on your channel for a while now and I was wondering if it’s possible for you to make a video where you compare ENTPs and ENFPs. Thank you very much, your work is incredible!
My last answer wasn't helpful woops. So the differences are in their middle functions. ENFPs have 2)Fi and 3)Te, while ENTPs have 2)Ti and 3)Fe. Because of this ENFPs have a strong set of values while ENTPs are more open minded to various beliefs. You will notice this difference as they become more mature and the ENFP's Fi is something no ENTP shows. Because of Fi, ENFPs have a strong core identity, they know who they are and what they want. ENTPs are a bit more interested in how people work because of Ti, and because of Fe they are more focused on other people and less on themselves. I think this is the key way to spot the difference between the types, the way they focus on people around them. ENTPs give you completely different attention like they are "reading" you, they do that with everyone. When ENFPs give you attention they are more focused on how they see you/how you make them feel. ENTPs are focused on how you genuinely feel without a self-projected interpretation of your feelings. Fi is why ENFPs are more receptive, and Fe is why ENTPs are more giving. Sorry if this sounds abstract, it makes sense to me but idk if I'm good at explaining it.
@@spring7643 i am an enfp that shares many common traits with the entps. though, i know for sure that i am not entp and in fact enfp. because of fi, like you said. i am in my early 30's, and somehow, i know who i am, and very self aware. more often than not, i would second guess people's intention than to question my own stand point. while i am very open with the possible of being wrong and is always willing to change if the truth is proven, i will not let people tell me to be anything else but my self. i guess, what i am trying to say is that, personally i think what differs the most between enfp and entp are the fact that fundamentally, enfp are more likely to be self centered, not necessarily in a bad way but yeah. it's like "i feel, so i must be, there for i am". and entp is like "i think, but i need more evidences, but you can never be too sure"
@@kailanGoreng that's a great perspective, I have an ENFP friend who could have written this. I agree with you, I didn't know how to word it but ENFPs do focus more on themselves because of Fi. I personally think high Fi and high Fe have pros and cons, which is why people with more similar functions are generally more compatible. If you have the same cons as someone you generally don't mind those cons. Example would be 2 high Fe users not being bothered by the other's clingy/nosey nature. Also ENFPs would be most compatible with other xNFPs, but sometimes a contrast is good for productivity, work relationships and mental growth. I know that ISxJs help many abstract types get their lives organized. What might be a weakness for one person is another person's strength, and when different types work together stuff gets done. But I'm also realizing that a balance is good.
Any ENTPs find themselves too forgiving of other people’s bad behavior? I have a view that even if someone mistreats me, there’s reasons they’re that way or doing so, and it doesn’t mean they’re that way to other people in their life. I can tell when people are lying, being manipulative, or disregarding me. But I tend to be too chill, not take things personally and not condemn others for being human. It’s not that I lack a spine. Would love to hear from other ENTPs that have this dilemma. 😅
Me ☝️ since I was a kids I attract those who are a public enemy bcs they are very problematic. everybody else hate them except me. I always find an excuse of their behaviour in my head hence why these type of people always like me sm (sorry not a native speaker)
One time there is this girl who always lying and has a victim mentality. She fakes doing self harming just to shows everybody a thin scar in her hands. Weirdly, I can tolerate her behaviour when others dont somehow
It's probably going to also depend on your enneagram, MBTI is usually paired with an Enneagram to get a combination or the closest customization about yourself lol
It depends what the bad behavior was, I am very good at making somebody invisible to me if i dont like them, They could be right in front of me and won't even exist anymore, it doesn't happen a lot Probably only twice in my life lol
Whoa such ENTP suited content & time limit - paradoxical is the best way to describe ENTP busy in grandiose dreams & clearly clueless about micro details
Im an ENTP-T. before I understood cognitive functions I thought that dating my ENFP girlfriend was a great idea. She was immature too, so it was bad. I liked her soooo much and at first she was obsessed with me too. Then I offended her and she left me sooo fast. I was so confused. 😂😂😂 I now know that I need to avoid high Fi users. I dislike them not because I ACTUALLY dislike them, but when I challenge the Fi core values of a high Fi user they think I HATE them. I DONT HATE THEM. I honestly have pretty neutral to positive opinions about almost everyone. If you are going to shut me out because I challenge your beliefs then maybe I shouldn’t associate with you very much. That is what I do as an ENTP. I’m probably never gonna date an XXFP type again....UNLESS they can understand that I will poke and prod their Fi values and they are ok with that.
@@Heliorhodonite i know. not all Fi users are like this, but I know that it is why she left me. That’s why I had the UNLESS part. I’m a high Ti and terrible Fi user. I don’t know what I like so I make the logical decision with Ti or I ask what others like using my third slot Fe to know what I like. It’s bad cause I don’t know who I am and what I like, but it’s good because as long as you have a logical explanation then it is almost impossible to offend me. I don’t attach myself to any one idea because I’m always aware that it could be wrong. When others do this and they can’t think logically and just get hurt I find it highly annoying.
@@Gsscvgggfdertfffhhjiuytdsss i don’t hate INTJs. Usually I like them. One of my best friends is an INTJ. I like most people. I actually do have SOME values and surprisingly they are mostly traditional and Christian. I’ve tested these values and thought about them a lot. I don’t store something in my small Fi until it has also run through my strong Ti. (Most ENTPs are not religious but I am) most of my beliefs are fluid. However when I feel and think that someone’s values will harm them down the road because I are erroneous and dangerous then I try to dismantle them. I don’t let a drug addict continue taking drugs without telling them that they have their values in the wrong place.
@@gabi6898 Ti and Atheism are a stereotype. That does not mean that they are truly connected. Logic and religion to some are not meant to go together. This couldn’t be more false. You can make logical arguments for religion just as you can make logical arguments against religion. I’ve found a way to allow my Ti to remain while being a Christian it does not me that I have low Ti.
@@gabi6898 personally I think most Christian faiths are illogical but not the religion I associate with. They encourage logical analysis of religion and are still Christian. Ti and atheism are not one in the same.
I think I'm an INFJ, but sometimes I still get confused about it. I think the perception functions are still quite confusing to me. But I think I use more of a Ni-Ti way of reasoning rather than Ne-Ti? I'm good at seeing multiple perspectives, and I usually like to help people see the perspectives that they are not seeing. But when I make decisions, I usually try using Ti (and maybe Ni) to narrow it down so that I can choose the decision that seems the most fitting for the situation I'm in. I usually think like "what do all these perspectives have in common? what is the most important point that I have to think about when making this decision and which perspective(s) provides the best answer for that point? which perspective is the best to use to achieve the desired outcome?" and then settle on one (but not rigid) path. I'm better at that now though than I used to be. "The thought of that a small detail could disrupt one of their grand plans is almost just unacceptable to them" Usually disruption of my plans causes me great anxiety and it almost makes me unmotivated to even make the plans to begin with. But I'm also bad at getting things done unless I've planned them, it's quite hard for me to be spontspontaneouslyanous. What causes me even more anxiety is when somebody else spontaneously asks me to do something without me being prepared for it. When I do something, I always think "okay, after I've done this, I'm gonna do this", so I do a lot of natural short-term planning. But then when someone else comes along and asks me to do something that I haven't prepared myself for, it's almost impossible for me to do it. I gotta visualize it first, analyze it, and plan it. After that, I can do it. But not immediately. I'll always ask people to give me at least 15 minutes and then I'll do it. My dad (who I believe is a poorly developed ESFP, that would type himself as an ENTJ) has these "spontaneous spurts" where he's like "now we should do this, and this, and this, and get it done, right now" and if I don't wanna do it at the exact time that he wants to, he says "you're so lazy and always procrastinate". It's not like he was doing anything productive before he got into his manic spontaneous mood, he doesn't procrastinate because he doesn't plan, and he doesn't think about doing anything before the moment that he does it. He does nothing and doesn't think about doing anything until he suddenly "gets in the mood". ENTP points in this video I relate to: x 0:01 - 0:05 well I don't like these things, but I can't do much about it and I'm not good at "moving against the stream" x 0:06 - 0:13 kinda... x 0:14 yes x 0:30 - 0:38 x 0:54 - 0:58 x 1:00 - 1:08 I do question people's beliefs, but idk if I do it in an "attacking" manner, but some people might feel like that x 1:12 - 1:19 although don't always take me seriously, sometimes I'm just questioning you for fun and coming up with ideas that even I don't believe in x 1:20 - 1:27 I think Te-like systems created by the Te-society that we live in cause me stress, but if I create my own system, it's actually a stress reliever for me. I do understand the point of these Te-systems, and why they are there, though. x 1:34 - 1:39 x 1:47 - 1:50 Do you find me likely to be an INFJ? or is it more likely that I'm an ENTP?
I scanned a bit of your essay, ur prolly INFJ/INXX lol, I don't remember ENTPs doing long paragraphs like these without jokes on the side or weird examples (Kinda trolling) If it confuses you too much, maybe it's ok not to put yourself on label for now
You didn't have to expose my existence like that, Rudolph, but I'll let it slide just this once because it's seemingly coming from a place that carries endearment, well done
Nathan can you do a video on how INTPs and ISTJs are always confused? Here are some of my thoughts on the subject because I decided to write this instead of be productive. Some things I think people (feelers, let's be honest) get confused is that we INTPs can sometimes come off as black or white, "I'm right you're wrong" thinkers. In my experience it's always been people mistaking my in-depth knowledge on a topic and how easily I can write off others' ideas as irrational or stupid for "I don't care about any other ideas or what you have to say because I think I'm right and that's that." Of course I can't speak for anyone else, but for me this could not be more untrue. Ti - Ne/Ne - Ti has a way of being able to see everything wrong with an idea almost instantly, which often gives us a vibe of bitter pessimism when we're just trying to help (although the "IxTPs are natural pessimists" trope is certainly accurate). The biggest difference I've noticed is third slot Si vs first slot Si. Si doms are typically rule followers who values order and consistency above all else. An INxP's Si serves as our way of coping with the "real" world. For the INTP, Ti - Si tells us that certain rules are necessary, but Ne outranks Si and...does what Ne does. In my experience, most INTPs lean wayyyy more towards being rule breakers than they do towards rule followers. I don't know how to end this so yeah that's it.
I don't think people really mistake them as they act kinda different, both are your typical excellent pupils, but one can cheat if needed, reads a lot of stuff on diverse topics, and the other hates people who break the vibe, people who are not decent and people who are arrogant like say estp, who they think are morons Angela Merkel is the best example of istj Bill Gates is the typical intp
Te-Ne and Ti-Ne pairings are quite different. Imo, ISTJ is the one that often comes off as cold, INTP always look endearing to me. Probably just lacking in energy most of the time, but not necessarily cold. Your logics are still flexible, given that someone can feed you with the same amount of proven information to discuss. ISTJ is more about external logical order than just theories. And their Te is not necessarily flexible either, that's why they can come off as cold when they're just trying to be efficient. It's due to the less flexible Te in them.
Most likely to get away with murder... But yeah basically all he said was true. Especially the whole thing about valuing potential... That was so good man.
Como uma INFP, adoro a personalidade ENTP (tanto q gosto do Jack sparrow e Satoru Gojo), mas teria dificuldades em acompanhar os ENTP's pq gosto de coisas monótonas, então eu teria estresse, mas gosto de debates kkkkk
I had an old former college friend (was an ENTP) whom always debated on how to be an artist, as she was always out to get me on my livelihood, as we parted ways on our artistic freedoms, so much so, she’s my art rival, through and through.
Redtapism and bureaucracy.. I offended the entire district bureaucracy Today. Bureaucracy is extremely unreasonable and unpredictable. Interacting with bureaucracy for three days made my life miserable. I have never felt so much frustrated, I keep on complaining one after the other to their superior, until the highest among them was also offended.
This video took me at least five minutes to get through because I kept pausing it every time he said something so insanely relatable to me that I just had to recollect myself and take a lap
as an ENTP I can't fucking stop analyzing everything. I mean it's nice but holy fuck often times I feel myself as this chubby dude with a whiteboard from the slander memes.
I dont know how else i can put it but i am so glad to be an ENTP. I can see peoples mental flaws and all i can do is empathetically try to help them think. That is, if theyre willing to let me. ISTJ and ESTJ are the darn hardest to try and help logically. They irk me so bad. Anyways, yes to ENTPs. I believe we are the best because we are logical but also empaths. Carry on
The care, time and effort I need to put in small details, bureaucrazy etc so that one of them doesnt cause mayhem isn´t worth the effort. I rather neglect them all and deal with one of them causing problems haha - ENTP
1:19-1:26 that whole list made my heart rate increase before I realized what you were about to say 😅 Exactly all of the things that I absolutely cannot stand.
@@Jonas_Albert Interesting. I'm a pretty strong Ne user and pretty young (still developing all the other functions at 18 I think), so I'm probably more like 75% blind optimist and 25% cynic (generally when I'm jaded or in a bad mood). I'm also a type 7 though so I suppose that would make a difference if you're combining Enneagram and MBTI, which is a common practice.
@@gabrielchattaway1663 I'm only 15, but i'm already pretty cynical, and pessimistic about the world as a whole from everything i've seen. I just feel like i can't trust anyone because i have been betrayed so many times by the people i trusted, that i don't dare to trust anyone anymore, and when i look at the world you can se it becomming more, and more toxic day by day, and it's hard to be optimistic because. To be optimistic, you have to be ignorant, and i don't want to be ignorant no matter what. so i'm 75% cynical and at most 25% optimist. Because from what i have experienced. Being optimistic has done nothing, but screw me over most of the time so to not get hurt i try not to allow myself to be overly optimistic, but still there are times where i get overly optimistic, and then fail because i get excited, and then do stupid shit. I'm a 5w4 BTW which is not typical for an ENTP so my Ti is very developed, and almost at the same level as Ne, and i often have a hard time deciding weather i'm a Ti dom or Ne dom, but i have to much Fe to be an INTP i think, and also too little Si to be INTP. So i have concluded that i'm an ENTP with a very developed Ti. BTW. Do i sound like an ENTP based on my writing or more like an INTP?
@@Jonas_Albert I'd say more like an INTP personally, partly because it's a very opinionated thing to say optimism is ignorance (Ti, understandable though). But then again, harder to tell since you're 15 and of course I don't know you, and it's hard to tell just from your writing. One thing you could definitely do is draw from the old introversion/extroversion spectrum, in deciding whether you generally draw more energy from the external world or the internal. Then again, when you're a teenager I'm sure typing is probably a little different as you're still forming a personality (and a pre-frontal cortex for that matter). I'm 18, and while I definitely think I've found a "type" I have a lot to develop still. Of course, every person is different, personality testing definitely helps us understand that, so we all view the world in a different way. While I would generally say that I'm more optimistic than pessimistic, I wouldn't call myself an ignorant person. I'm very keen to learn and pick up new information about that world to generate ideas and possibilities... perhaps that accounts for my optimism as an Ne dominant. I do also see the more negative and worse sides of the world, but I don't dwell on them and take them to heart as much and enjoy a more peaceful detachment to them. I don't think that's an ignorance vs observance dichotomy per se; rather we all interpret information differently and some are more predisposed to look for harder truths over more positive experiences or ideas. You are right though; there's a lot of terrible things in the world, and I can completely understand how a lot of bad things happening to you can make you more pessimistic than optimistic. Again, another personal, circumstantial factor. And you're right about optimism in some regards; hope can get us hurt, but I still think it's worth taking that chance to be happy and content with what we've got than to dwell in the misfortune and misery of mankind. Sometimes optimism comes naturally, sometimes it's a choice.
@@gabrielchattaway1663 I agree with that. I didn't really mean that optimism is ignorance. I meant that blind optimism is ignorance, but staying optimistic while things are bad, while still not being blindly optimistic is not bad at all, and can be a good thing. Both for finding solutions, and for staying mentally healthy, but what i meant is that blind optimism can hurt people, because it could make peoole ignore real problems or make them take dumb risks, because they always just think. Everything will turn out fine no matter what causing them to not do anything about their problems, sometimes i'm blindly optimistic causing me to do dumb shit like i said. I can be very impulssive at times, and that has caused me a lot of shit in life. But so can being blindly pessimistic because that could hold you back from actually trying anything new if you always only expect the worst in every situation, and it could alao ruin ypur mental health totally if you don't also have some optimism. Neither is good. The best is to be realistic. I would call myself a realist that leans towards pessimism due to life experience. I think you're a realist that leans towards optimism due to life experience. Am i correct?
The other day I was at a party and zoned out of a conversation and found myself checking to see if any one of my acquaintances looked bored to go entertain them and I was like oh look at me using my Fe 💁♀️
You know as an ENTP. I'm dumb, but I hardly care and is aware of everything. Don't wanna overthink, and yet analyzes everything in the world despite knowing that no one is perfect. We may look silly and annoying but we deeply care.
I took a personality test, it said intp. Ok, i took it a week later and it said istp. Then i took it and it daid estp. Then i got entj. Then i found out what entp's are and accepted that its me lol
"Take them seriously, but dont take them personally" GOLD
100% spot on
or " take them seriously, but don't take them seriously".
Yep, stood up to me as well. Very true. And logical, but somehow others have a hard time seeing it On their own so I may have to explicitly use this one.
Лол почему так забавно видеть Путина в комментах
Ещё забавнее будет если ты не русский 🥰🔪
Oh yea! If you do make the mistake of taking them personally, you’re gonna spend a lot of time feeling all butt hurt🤣
How to spot an ENTP? Make a RUclips video about them and they’ll all come running.
What I did lol

As an ENTP- Good to know, good to know/hj
INFP: *Exhibiting intense belief*
ENTP: *Resisting the urge to troll*
Why resisting ? I'm an INFP and I love when someone is actually capable of debating my beliefs without saying bullshit ; it makes me evolve as a person and... many others things. And I love debates ( ***true*** debates, not hidden monologues where nobody talk and nobody listen ), also. It's maybe because I'm not resisting that it doesn't offend me when someone is doing so... dunno. ( Sorry, my english is horrible >< )
@@Heliorhodonite But they put 'resisting the urge to troll' not debating beliefs but trolling.
As an INFP I can say it's completely true. My ENTP friend always trolls me when I'm talking about something I care deeply. It used to bother me a lot but I have come to appreciate lately. It's good to not take things too seriously all the time.
this is why i avoid entps ✌🏻🥰
@J. V. same lmao 😭
I think what pisses me off about being an entp is knowing something is stupid but doing it anyways because it makes me feel good
I feel that too. I often did dumb things just for the sake of curiousity.
INTP here, and it's the same. Feeling something "stupid" but continuing to have that feeling is similarly aggravating.
Or somebody telling you do do something that you know is right, so you do the opposite just to spite them even though it's wrong
@@Randomstu1988 yep! This for me. Even if I’m the one telling me what to do, the whole “ nobody tells me what to do” clicks in...
re OP’s version, Maybe it’s being older or something but my brain overrides the feeling good part.. I can still do stupid things and feel awful about them, and I don’t even get to feel good part. It makes no sense that it can still happen but I guess not everything is logical. Ugghhhhh

I think ENTPs are one of the easiest types to spot. Normally very intense and extrovert people makes me feel very introvert and get caught in boring-mode and long back to my book and my teacup, but the ENTPs for some reason can make me feel fun and goofy and I get like double the amount of "extrovertedness-patience" than with other types. Even the individuals that seems to get on many other people's nerves. So if someone makes me feel "wow, you're really intense and annoying but adorable" I know it's an ENTP.

My younger brother is ENTP. I'm INTJ. When we were kids, he would often speak on my behalf and help me understand others, especially their different point of view because I was very much black and white, and saw the world as such. When it came to new, especially sudden experiences (new places, people, food), he would sort of "test the ice" for me, and I would follow his lead. I helped him with homework or house chores because he would absolutely loath doing them (and still does).
Our dynamic can be pretty explosive if we get into an argument because he will, not might, but WILL, pick apart my beliefs and systems I've put up for myself, then I get angry and don't talk to him in weeks. But when we argue or talk about something completely weird/cryptic/abstract/hypothetical, that's when I love his company, his dumb sense of humor, charisma and quick wits. He's arrogant af but ultimately he has a heart of gold.
And yes, I would help him get rid of a corpse, no questions asked, if it came to that lol

- Argues with you in 1 minute
1 min they're like laughing with you, the next they're poking holes in your argument lol
No, I don't argue, what makes you think I argue? I call it aimless debating
@@essymessy2534 Maybe I mean debate? English is not my first language..so maybe I confuse the words. When I look it up it says that it is called debate when it's formal?
"argue" sounds too agressive what I mean and debate too formal. Maye discussion is what I mean? What I mean is a person who does not easily agree with things. However, when I look up that meaning it says disagreeable means unpleasant (rather than a person who does often not agree). Ah..english is a confusing language sometimes
I confused the words! I mean friendly disagree and then words interaction.
If you call this debate..then does that not mean like an official debate? So debate can
@@PowerRedBullTypology I get your point about entps, that we don't agree easily. I was just being confusing, sorry. What I meant was to not agree with you so as to prove your point.

@@essymessy2534 No worry. The intention I had was just writing down something that was funny
How to spot an ENTP:
-> Get into a discussion with them

In my experience, the fastest way to spot an ENTP is to mention the local funeral home is having a BBQ and to wait for the one person who asks what’s in the hot dogs.
What! I didn't get it completely but still chuckled. "Barbeque in the funeral house...".
"These hotdogs are delicious! Does the deceased get a discount for the referral?"
"This BBQ is a graveyard smash!"
"Could you lower the temperature of the cremation chamber? These burgers are over cooked." I'll stop before I end up on a list. 🥸😁

As an entp when I meet another entp we are so alike in the way we act and talk but typically share very few of the same interest not to say that we don't find interest in why the other has a certain interest. As a former air traffic controller in the Army I found that I ran into more entps in that line of work more than any other due to the fact of what the occupation requires at a cognitive level which is high level situational awareness and the ability to adapt and improvise on a split second.
I don't know how much air traffic control is similar to just flying a jet, but I've always been fascinated by flying a fighter jet, hell...even thought of joining the air force. Maybe in future I'll race plains or bikes in Moto GP.
@@JstJaybeingJay so if you're flying an aircraft you're responsible for your aircraft as an air traffic controller I have to see the big picture I might have 15 to 20 aircraft in my airspace and I have to deconflict, organize, and coordinate movement handoffs and transitions
Yes!! This is exactly my ENTP husband! Except he was raised by a very intense INFP so he fortunately got a deep value system ingrained in him whether he liked it or not, despite his constant challenging and arguing! But the point about taking them seriously but not personally is exactly what I try telling people ALL THE TIME! His arguments are always completely separated from the people he talks to but it’s hard for some people to realize that sometimes
I think I've only ever came across one ENTP in my life and it was quite an experience. He was a classmate of mine in U.S. History and we sat next to each other. I ALWAYS got a kick seeing him just debate with the teacher and challenge her just for the heck of it 😂
From an INFJ, I just want to say to the ENTPs out there reading this: I appreciate your quirkiness and intellect. Continue being you 👌
Ah....thanks I guess....:-).
History class was difficult as an ENTP.
The facts were very easy to learn, but when the teacher gave their opinions on motive of historical figures I couldn't "just accept" that. It NEEDED to be looked at with fresh eyes, to question what people were thinking, trying to see through the eyes of context of the time (too often Modern motivations were given to past events...)

ENTP is an interesting one. My ex husband who’s an ENTP wants to take our kids on a 16hr long hike. He wants to do this hike all in one day. He’s also about 150lbs overweight and has bad knees. He gets these grand ideas, lol! When we were married I couldn’t get him to go for a walk with me even if my darn life depended on it! I go for an hour walk almost every day and I wouldn’t even want to try doing a 16hr hike all in one day! My kids all know how ambitious he is whilst still in the dreaming phase of things. They won’t go along with his big, and quite frankly HILARIOUS, plan. Still love him and all you crazy ENTP types though! All my favourite comedians are ENTPs! You guys have the absolute BEST sense of humour, imo!

Impressive 2 min summary. The "like to provide people with good experiences" is very true too, and to do so I feel we connect a lot on emotional levels with people. Which isn't something you usually read on the random stereotyped summaries you get online.

While also wondering if this is something I should even comment but whatever here it is. You've got the eyebrows of a wizard Harry.

You're so right about the bureaucracy. My ENTP partner pushes any and all forms on to me to fill out, the latest one being the census. He's been slowly learning how to lower the trolling around me (INFP) over the last 10 years, but on Discord, it's still "anything goes".
Take them seriously but not personally.. on point ☝️
That’s one of the most useful notions in my experience when it comes to ENTPs! ~ Nathan
You earn a new subscriber here simply because you clarify the streotype of the ENTPs. I truly hate the belief that ENTP like to debates just for the sake of it. That's totally misleading and I never like that, nor do I believe real ENTPs (based on cognitive functions) are like that because we have Ne-Fe as the dominant pairing. Social harmony is important to us and it's actually irritating to see someone causing a disturbance in the social environment around us. So, there's no way we'll do it ourselves.
Unless there are things that need to be clarified with logical arguments (which is rare), there's no point in starting a debate just to disturb others. That's actually stupid. Harmony is the best. Just doesn't mean that we'll keep quiet when someone is behaving too stupidly.
I feel _seen,_ thank you. Btw this series in particular is always 💯

Study the cognitive functions it will teach you so much 🙏🙏🙏
@@spring7643 piss off smartie, it's the valid question as it's really hard to tell them apart sometimes
My last answer wasn't helpful woops. So the differences are in their middle functions. ENFPs have 2)Fi and 3)Te, while ENTPs have 2)Ti and 3)Fe. Because of this ENFPs have a strong set of values while ENTPs are more open minded to various beliefs. You will notice this difference as they become more mature and the ENFP's Fi is something no ENTP shows. Because of Fi, ENFPs have a strong core identity, they know who they are and what they want. ENTPs are a bit more interested in how people work because of Ti, and because of Fe they are more focused on other people and less on themselves. I think this is the key way to spot the difference between the types, the way they focus on people around them. ENTPs give you completely different attention like they are "reading" you, they do that with everyone. When ENFPs give you attention they are more focused on how they see you/how you make them feel. ENTPs are focused on how you genuinely feel without a self-projected interpretation of your feelings. Fi is why ENFPs are more receptive, and Fe is why ENTPs are more giving. Sorry if this sounds abstract, it makes sense to me but idk if I'm good at explaining it.
@@spring7643 i am an enfp that shares many common traits with the entps. though, i know for sure that i am not entp and in fact enfp. because of fi, like you said. i am in my early 30's, and somehow, i know who i am, and very self aware. more often than not, i would second guess people's intention than to question my own stand point. while i am very open with the possible of being wrong and is always willing to change if the truth is proven, i will not let people tell me to be anything else but my self. i guess, what i am trying to say is that, personally i think what differs the most between enfp and entp are the fact that fundamentally, enfp are more likely to be self centered, not necessarily in a bad way but yeah. it's like "i feel, so i must be, there for i am". and entp is like "i think, but i need more evidences, but you can never be too sure"
@@kailanGoreng that's a great perspective, I have an ENFP friend who could have written this. I agree with you, I didn't know how to word it but ENFPs do focus more on themselves because of Fi. I personally think high Fi and high Fe have pros and cons, which is why people with more similar functions are generally more compatible. If you have the same cons as someone you generally don't mind those cons. Example would be 2 high Fe users not being bothered by the other's clingy/nosey nature. Also ENFPs would be most compatible with other xNFPs, but sometimes a contrast is good for productivity, work relationships and mental growth. I know that ISxJs help many abstract types get their lives organized. What might be a weakness for one person is another person's strength, and when different types work together stuff gets done. But I'm also realizing that a balance is good.
Any ENTPs find themselves too forgiving of other people’s bad behavior?
I have a view that even if someone mistreats me, there’s reasons they’re that way or doing so, and it doesn’t mean they’re that way to other people in their life. I can tell when people are lying, being manipulative, or disregarding me. But I tend to be too chill, not take things personally and not condemn others for being human. It’s not that I lack a spine. Would love to hear from other ENTPs that have this dilemma. 😅
Me ☝️ since I was a kids I attract those who are a public enemy bcs they are very problematic. everybody else hate them except me. I always find an excuse of their behaviour in my head hence why these type of people always like me sm (sorry not a native speaker)
One time there is this girl who always lying and has a victim mentality. She fakes doing self harming just to shows everybody a thin scar in her hands.
Weirdly, I can tolerate her behaviour when others dont somehow
It's probably going to also depend on your enneagram, MBTI is usually paired with an Enneagram to get a combination or the closest customization about yourself lol
Same.... 😕
It depends what the bad behavior was, I am very good at making somebody invisible to me if i dont like them, They could be right in front of me and won't even exist anymore, it doesn't happen a lot Probably only twice in my life lol

Im an ENTP-T. before I understood cognitive functions I thought that dating my ENFP girlfriend was a great idea. She was immature too, so it was bad. I liked her soooo much and at first she was obsessed with me too. Then I offended her and she left me sooo fast. I was so confused. 😂😂😂 I now know that I need to avoid high Fi users. I dislike them not because I ACTUALLY dislike them, but when I challenge the Fi core values of a high Fi user they think I HATE them. I DONT HATE THEM. I honestly have pretty neutral to positive opinions about almost everyone. If you are going to shut me out because I challenge your beliefs then maybe I shouldn’t associate with you very much. That is what I do as an ENTP. I’m probably never gonna date an XXFP type again....UNLESS they can understand that I will poke and prod their Fi values and they are ok with that.
@@Heliorhodonite i know. not all Fi users are like this, but I know that it is why she left me. That’s why I had the UNLESS part. I’m a high Ti and terrible Fi user. I don’t know what I like so I make the logical decision with Ti or I ask what others like using my third slot Fe to know what I like. It’s bad cause I don’t know who I am and what I like, but it’s good because as long as you have a logical explanation then it is almost impossible to offend me. I don’t attach myself to any one idea because I’m always aware that it could be wrong. When others do this and they can’t think logically and just get hurt I find it highly annoying.
@@Gsscvgggfdertfffhhjiuytdsss i don’t hate INTJs. Usually I like them. One of my best friends is an INTJ. I like most people. I actually do have SOME values and surprisingly they are mostly traditional and Christian. I’ve tested these values and thought about them a lot. I don’t store something in my small Fi until it has also run through my strong Ti. (Most ENTPs are not religious but I am) most of my beliefs are fluid. However when I feel and think that someone’s values will harm them down the road because I are erroneous and dangerous then I try to dismantle them. I don’t let a drug addict continue taking drugs without telling them that they have their values in the wrong place.

@@gabi6898 Ti and Atheism are a stereotype. That does not mean that they are truly connected. Logic and religion to some are not meant to go together. This couldn’t be more false.

@@gabi6898 personally I think most Christian faiths are illogical but not the religion I associate with. They encourage logical analysis of religion and are still Christian. Ti and atheism are not one in the same.
I think I'm an INFJ, but sometimes I still get confused about it. I think the perception functions are still quite confusing to me. But I think I use more of a Ni-Ti way of reasoning rather than Ne-Ti? I'm good at seeing multiple perspectives, and I usually like to help people see the perspectives that they are not seeing. But when I make decisions, I usually try using Ti (and maybe Ni) to narrow it down so that I can choose the decision that seems the most fitting for the situation I'm in. I usually think like "what do all these perspectives have in common? what is the most important point that I have to think about when making this decision and which perspective(s) provides the best answer for that point? which perspective is the best to use to achieve the desired outcome?" and then settle on one (but not rigid) path. I'm better at that now though than I used to be.
"The thought of that a small detail could disrupt one of their grand plans is almost just unacceptable to them" Usually disruption of my plans causes me great anxiety and it almost makes me unmotivated to even make the plans to begin with. But I'm also bad at getting things done unless I've planned them, it's quite hard for me to be spontspontaneouslyanous. What causes me even more anxiety is when somebody else spontaneously asks me to do something without me being prepared for it. When I do something, I always think "okay, after I've done this, I'm gonna do this", so I do a lot of natural short-term planning. But then when someone else comes along and asks me to do something that I haven't prepared myself for, it's almost impossible for me to do it. I gotta visualize it first, analyze it, and plan it. After that, I can do it. But not immediately. I'll always ask people to give me at least 15 minutes and then I'll do it. My dad (who I believe is a poorly developed ESFP, that would type himself as an ENTJ) has these "spontaneous spurts" where he's like "now we should do this, and this, and this, and get it done, right now" and if I don't wanna do it at the exact time that he wants to, he says "you're so lazy and always procrastinate". It's not like he was doing anything productive before he got into his manic spontaneous mood, he doesn't procrastinate because he doesn't plan, and he doesn't think about doing anything before the moment that he does it. He does nothing and doesn't think about doing anything until he suddenly "gets in the mood".

Nathan can you do a video on how INTPs and ISTJs are always confused? Here are some of my thoughts on the subject because I decided to write this instead of be productive.
Some things I think people (feelers, let's be honest) get confused is that we INTPs can sometimes come off as black or white, "I'm right you're wrong" thinkers. In my experience it's always been people mistaking my in-depth knowledge on a topic and how easily I can write off others' ideas as irrational or stupid for "I don't care about any other ideas or what you have to say because I think I'm right and that's that." Of course I can't speak for anyone else, but for me this could not be more untrue. Ti - Ne/Ne - Ti has a way of being able to see everything wrong with an idea almost instantly, which often gives us a vibe of bitter pessimism when we're just trying to help (although the "IxTPs are natural pessimists" trope is certainly accurate). The biggest difference I've noticed is third slot Si vs first slot Si. Si doms are typically rule followers who values order and consistency above all else. An INxP's Si serves as our way of coping with the "real" world. For the INTP, Ti - Si tells us that certain rules are necessary, but Ne outranks Si and...does what Ne does. In my experience, most INTPs lean wayyyy more towards being rule breakers than they do towards rule followers. I don't know how to end this so yeah that's it.
I don't think people really mistake them as they act kinda different, both are your typical excellent pupils, but one can cheat if needed, reads a lot of stuff on diverse topics, and the other hates people who break the vibe, people who are not decent and people who are arrogant like say estp, who they think are morons
Angela Merkel is the best example of istj
Bill Gates is the typical intp
Te-Ne and Ti-Ne pairings are quite different. Imo, ISTJ is the one that often comes off as cold, INTP always look endearing to me. Probably just lacking in energy most of the time, but not necessarily cold. Your logics are still flexible, given that someone can feed you with the same amount of proven information to discuss.
ISTJ is more about external logical order than just theories. And their Te is not necessarily flexible either, that's why they can come off as cold when they're just trying to be efficient. It's due to the less flexible Te in them.
Most likely to get away with murder... But yeah basically all he said was true. Especially the whole thing about valuing potential... That was so good man.
Como uma INFP, adoro a personalidade ENTP (tanto q gosto do Jack sparrow e Satoru Gojo), mas teria dificuldades em acompanhar os ENTP's pq gosto de coisas monótonas, então eu teria estresse, mas gosto de debates kkkkk
Just stopping by to thank you for confirming I’m just an algorithm. 🙌
Ha! But we're one hell of an algorithm: ruclips.net/video/6avJHaC3C2U/видео.html
I had an old former college friend (was an ENTP) whom always debated on how to be an artist, as she was always out to get me on my livelihood, as we parted ways on our artistic freedoms, so much so, she’s my art rival, through and through.
Redtapism and bureaucracy..
I offended the entire district bureaucracy Today. Bureaucracy is extremely unreasonable and unpredictable.
Interacting with bureaucracy for three days made my life miserable. I have never felt so much frustrated, I keep on complaining one after the other to their superior, until the highest among them was also offended.
This video took me at least five minutes to get through because I kept pausing it every time he said something so insanely relatable to me that I just had to recollect myself and take a lap
Intense, Nathan.
INFJ 🎵 "paradoxical" 🎶❤️
I did not hear "diabolical," which I reserve, for my dark side (sigh)
What does it supposed to mean by paradoxical? Are infj's paradoxical?.
*Ego: boosted*
-ENTP
Wow sooo true! As an ENTP female I approve this message 😊
This Was absolutely spot on
as an ENTP I can't fucking stop analyzing everything. I mean it's nice but holy fuck often times I feel myself as this chubby dude with a whiteboard from the slander memes.
I drooled the entire time. Love, INXJ
I dont know how else i can put it but i am so glad to be an ENTP. I can see peoples mental flaws and all i can do is empathetically try to help them think. That is, if theyre willing to let me. ISTJ and ESTJ are the darn hardest to try and help logically. They irk me so bad. Anyways, yes to ENTPs. I believe we are the best because we are logical but also empaths. Carry on
When you are compulsively trying to make sense of everything but don't make any sense yourself.
Imo ENTP's are the best type lmao. Y'all are cool and funny in a way that makes me green with envy.
~ From an IxFP
As an INTP I understand ENTP's quite well
im an Infj trying to spot my entp
i love you guys soo much-
(maybe too much...🤫🤭)
Daaamn... to the point.
I love me a bit of brevity… ~ Nathan
I love how it's so short but so accurate
Paradoxical. ENTP in a nutshell lol

Joker being the key exception doing literally anything for laughs
Just stopping by to say I like ENTPs :) -INFP (as far as I know; could be wrong)
The care, time and effort I need to put in small details, bureaucrazy etc so that one of them doesnt cause mayhem isn´t worth the effort. I rather neglect them all and deal with one of them causing problems haha - ENTP
1:19-1:26 that whole list made my heart rate increase before I realized what you were about to say 😅 Exactly all of the things that I absolutely cannot stand.
Beautifully said. Although I do find paperwork difficult. The wording here in the Netherlands is WAY to unclear. On purpose of course.
50% optimistic, 50% cynical, 100% paradoxical. These are the primary ENTP traits I will always relate to.
As an ENTP i eould say i'm 75% cynical, 25% optimistic, but my Ennagram is 5 so i often look more like an INTP.
@@Jonas_Albert Interesting. I'm a pretty strong Ne user and pretty young (still developing all the other functions at 18 I think), so I'm probably more like 75% blind optimist and 25% cynic (generally when I'm jaded or in a bad mood). I'm also a type 7 though so I suppose that would make a difference if you're combining Enneagram and MBTI, which is a common practice.
@@gabrielchattaway1663 I'm only 15, but i'm already pretty cynical, and pessimistic about the world as a whole from everything i've seen. I just feel like i can't trust anyone because i have been betrayed so many times by the people i trusted, that i don't dare to trust anyone anymore, and when i look at the world you can se it becomming more, and more toxic day by day, and it's hard to be optimistic because. To be optimistic, you have to be ignorant, and i don't want to be ignorant no matter what. so i'm 75% cynical and at most 25% optimist. Because from what i have experienced. Being optimistic has done nothing, but screw me over most of the time so to not get hurt i try not to allow myself to be overly optimistic, but still there are times where i get overly optimistic, and then fail because i get excited, and then do stupid shit. I'm a 5w4 BTW which is not typical for an ENTP so my Ti is very developed, and almost at the same level as Ne, and i often have a hard time deciding weather i'm a Ti dom or Ne dom, but i have to much Fe to be an INTP i think, and also too little Si to be INTP. So i have concluded that i'm an ENTP with a very developed Ti. BTW. Do i sound like an ENTP based on my writing or more like an INTP?
@@Jonas_Albert I'd say more like an INTP personally, partly because it's a very opinionated thing to say optimism is ignorance (Ti, understandable though). But then again, harder to tell since you're 15 and of course I don't know you, and it's hard to tell just from your writing. One thing you could definitely do is draw from the old introversion/extroversion spectrum, in deciding whether you generally draw more energy from the external world or the internal. Then again, when you're a teenager I'm sure typing is probably a little different as you're still forming a personality (and a pre-frontal cortex for that matter). I'm 18, and while I definitely think I've found a "type" I have a lot to develop still.
Of course, every person is different, personality testing definitely helps us understand that, so we all view the world in a different way. While I would generally say that I'm more optimistic than pessimistic, I wouldn't call myself an ignorant person. I'm very keen to learn and pick up new information about that world to generate ideas and possibilities... perhaps that accounts for my optimism as an Ne dominant. I do also see the more negative and worse sides of the world, but I don't dwell on them and take them to heart as much and enjoy a more peaceful detachment to them. I don't think that's an ignorance vs observance dichotomy per se; rather we all interpret information differently and some are more predisposed to look for harder truths over more positive experiences or ideas.
You are right though; there's a lot of terrible things in the world, and I can completely understand how a lot of bad things happening to you can make you more pessimistic than optimistic. Again, another personal, circumstantial factor. And you're right about optimism in some regards; hope can get us hurt, but I still think it's worth taking that chance to be happy and content with what we've got than to dwell in the misfortune and misery of mankind. Sometimes optimism comes naturally, sometimes it's a choice.
@@gabrielchattaway1663 I agree with that. I didn't really mean that optimism is ignorance. I meant that blind optimism is ignorance, but staying optimistic while things are bad, while still not being blindly optimistic is not bad at all, and can be a good thing. Both for finding solutions, and for staying mentally healthy, but what i meant is that blind optimism can hurt people, because it could make peoole ignore real problems or make them take dumb risks, because they always just think. Everything will turn out fine no matter what causing them to not do anything about their problems, sometimes i'm blindly optimistic causing me to do dumb shit like i said. I can be very impulssive at times, and that has caused me a lot of shit in life.
But so can being blindly pessimistic because that could hold you back from actually trying anything new if you always only expect the worst in every situation, and it could alao ruin ypur mental health totally if you don't also have some optimism. Neither is good. The best is to be realistic. I would call myself a realist that leans towards pessimism due to life experience. I think you're a realist that leans towards optimism due to life experience. Am i correct?
Oh this is great. Where do I get one? -INFJ
Don't worry, they will get you!
You know what, I do absolutely *_DETEST_* bureaucracy! I always have!
The other day I was at a party and zoned out of a conversation and found myself checking to see if any one of my acquaintances looked bored to go entertain them and I was like oh look at me using my Fe 💁♀️
you know you are an entp when you are not aware of who you truly are
an ENTP doesn't care of who they are, we do and think stuff
Spot on!
You know as an ENTP. I'm dumb, but I hardly care and is aware of everything. Don't wanna overthink, and yet analyzes everything in the world despite knowing that no one is perfect. We may look silly and annoying but we deeply care.
Somehow this felt like poetry :v
I took a personality test, it said intp. Ok, i took it a week later and it said istp.
Then i took it and it daid estp. Then i got entj.
Then i found out what entp's are and accepted that its me lol
Hahaha yea that is actually me. Learning to bite my tongue at the moment but damn if it isn't hard.
Holyyyy. I never felt so understood before :D
Your eyebrows look like my mustache.
I like you.
1:22 just read here get me shiver 🥶
Yep, this video helped me as big as your eyebrows
"Take them seriously but don't take them personally" literally I need everyone to get this
Great summary
