This is an interesting comparison and there may indeed be many people who mistype along these lines!
You know you are an intj when you have to watch the video just to make sure for the hundredth time
Absolutely agree.
INTJ:
Am I an INTJ?
Maybe I need to some evidence to prove this
Searching the whole web about that
Conclusion: Maybe
So I'm not the only one doing this 😂 another pattern had been found
Ti critic
Me too.
-INTP
Same -Entj
Best advice for an INTJ: learn to tolerate the chaos, but lock your room always.
Lmfao
No thanks
Learn to use the chaos, even better my man
Omg I love it
@@ahk9838 i use the Chaos to get back in my room or corner or out the room.
“I think they call them humans” man😂 true true
I couldn’t resist saying that line! ~Nathan
But tru tho humans always create complicated chaos/stupid problems😂
This can actually be the key way to know if you're INTJ or not. The weird feel we have toward human being.
There is this huge potential almost turned off by layers off mess , all that inside a single person.
Rocket science to explore universe but at the same time launch nuke on each others.

I said "people" right b4 he said humans lol...that was too funny.
"ENTJs find reasons to do things INTJs do things for a reason."
This line helped me in resolving whether or not I was ENTJ. I've oscillated between both types for a year and hearing this out loud suddenly made me think of how I usually approached things. I have no problems with following a structure, but it was finding a reason to commit in the first place that was causing me issues.
YKW EXACTLY SAME
This line still confuses me and I haven’t figured it out… they both sound the same to me 😂
@@seijinko8958 explain to me the attributes of ninja vs bullldozer in your eyes ?
@@seijinko8958 I am the planner and observant but I am also an extrovert lol
I’m not aggressive. But I pursue what I want verbally. Squeaky wheel of sorts
@@volatileans Nope.
1. The eyebrows
2. Your cheeky humor
Amen!! ~ Nathan
Love Who your eyebrows are awesome
You know what is sad?
An INTJ without a vision......
Amen! ~ Nathan
🙌🏽🙋🏾♀️
Thank you Bella. I’ve done all you said before and lost it all. I’ve licked my wounds enough... thank you for inspiring me to get up and do it again... this time... smarter and wiser. Age is just a number. Much Love and Respect to you. ❤️✊
Me. Definitely.
I got my vision 1 year ago
You know you're an INTJ, when you are open-minded and have fun with other people just because it's a great tool to gain their trust and as a result their support for your ideas
it’s a good way to put it
Haha excellent
🗿 me relating* to this being an ENTJ
Guilty as charged.
Shhh don't tell them
"ENTJs find reasons to do things, INTJs do things for a reason." Wow! So succinctly put! But this whole video is an excellent comparison analysis of the two types! As an INTJ, I wish whenever I was ready to implement my plans, I could suddenly turn into an ENTJ and conquer the world. ☹ And I do agree that out of all the extroverted/introverted comparisons, ENTJs and INTJs are the most similar.
And to answer your question at the end, I started watching your videos because of your humor and unique, wonderfully articulated insight into MBTI! 😀 Your eyebrows are nice too, though. Haha.
Why thank you... One of the nice things with an INTJs plan is that it does tend to me, on average, more precise than an ENTJs plan. So what ENTJs gain in speed and adaptability the INTJ gains in foresight and contingencies. Always good to see you in the comments! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho Very true and a good point! I value that ability within myself for sure and wouldn't give it up for the world - but sometimes I do wish executing said plans was much easier. Why can't the world just be my pawn? ☹😁 haha
I disagree because I’m an ENTJ and don’t feel action oriented as I could be
I feel more socially extroverted for sure
But that doesn’t compell me the confidence to conquer the world with goals
I have like a failure to launch
I strategize at a faster rate than I can commit to beginning middle and outcome
"Irritating and stupid problems - I think they call them 'humans'" It made me laugh so hard XD Awesome video, as always! :)
Haha, couldn't resist saying that line ~ Nathan
@@lovewho Reminds me of a joke a friend of mine told me a while ago:
ISFJ GF: "You know I love you INTJ, but could you stop saying 'This human form is so limiting'? It scares me!"
INTJ: "But it is limiting!!"
I know right
What an eloquent and accurate breakdown of the two types. The way in which you ended with the two types and their affinity towards leadership - yes. When I worked with my first ENTJ boss him and I had such a symbiotic relationship. He loved to take the leadership, people first roll. I liked to make all of the things come together behind the scenes. We both understood and respected each other’s strengths in these areas and the reasons why our roles were so important. Together we took our business to its greatest year of growth on record. Like you said - I only had to deal with the humans when it was absolutely needed, which was my preference.
Again, great video.
This guy gets it, he really does. Especially the control vs. chaos issues and wanting someone else to be the front man.
I am an INTJ and I used to run a company with three people that included ENTJ. At first, it was clear that ENTJ wanted to be the 'leader' and surely had more authority than I had. We were both really goal-oriented, but our approach was different.
ENTJ wanted to do and achieve everything fast. I wanted to move a bit slower and be sure that we have backup plans. ENTJ was more of a dreamer and I were more rational. I am quite good at public speaking, but ENTJ was better. However, ENTJ was a lot worse at formal writing. At first, ENTJ hated to move slower, but as time passed he started to listen to me a lot more. He even told me that I made him realize that he should listen to others more (especially if he is able to trust them). Also, I learned that sometimes it might be better to do things without planning too much.
In the end, I think that ENTJ and INTJ makes a great team. Sometimes our conversations were quite intense, but we were not afraid to speak -- we were both searching for the truth, no matter what it costs.
Omg this seems like a fanfiction. When is chapter 2 coming out mmm 😛
@@peterpeterson3385 I'm still looking for my ENTJ partner. they gotta be out there somewhere. All my ENTJ friends work in differrent industries and the lateral move would mean to lose a position of power in order to build something from scratch. I know they would love it, but the threshold is too damn high.
Yeah, because you are an ESFP that wanted their PDB page deleted lmao
As an INTJ I do tend to get on well with ENTJs and think highly of them. I can only speak from my own experiences, but I like the ENTJ drive / competitiveness and also the taking charge aspects of their personality. Seeing these aspects in action is fascinating to me.
Thanks, i never get along very well with INTJs, more so INTPs because they can tolerate my obnoxious sense of humor, whereas most INTJs get offended... Not to mention, they dont like to debate much from my experience, and get offended by criticism.
I’m an intj and I had a entj as a mentor growing up. It’s fascinating looking back at the ways in which they influenced me and how much more I admired them more than others. I always understood their drive for efficiency and found the honest criticism refreshing. There’s definitely a respect between intjs and entjs
@@miacarter8740 true because my brother is an INTJ and I'm an ENTJ. I'd kill for him. He's such a great support in my life because both our parents are SFs, so the way we view the world is very different. He's my rock and I'm his when our parents tend to misunderstand us.
@@samuel-ds2wkI'm late to this party but as an INTJ myself, I've always been so fascinated with you ENTJs and how you do things. I never understood why yall would act first without even having any idea what you're trying to do, and how you can be so in touch with reality to the point you thrive under pressure, and yet I become so curious as to how yall do it so I can try for myself as a way of self development and flexibility to how I do things. Yall tend to be more successful in anything you do and I won't lie, it kinda pisses me off sometimes lol because I don't know how I could do it😂
The most simple and accurate description of INTJs I've ever heard.
Thank you! Thats the kind of compliment I like to receive ~ Nathan
Yes. English is a terrific language. Thanks for letting us improve on it for you. ;)
INTJ approves of your message.
Well played, well played indeed.... ~ Nathan
"I think they call them: humans" 😅😅😅
Couldn't resist doing that one ~ Nathan
Your voice is a little bit ASMR like, and you're funny. That's why I subscribed. 😌
I'm an ENTJ who's friend with an INTJ for almost 10 years now and I totally approve of your comparaison points. You just forgot the blind spots (or polar functions as you call them 😂). They can be a very good indicator to try and figure out which one are you.
Si blindness for ENTJ's translate as a very distorted perception of the past. It's like I'm so focused on what to do next that I forget what I did before. Even worse, who I was before. I literally can't tell you if something happened 2 days or 2 weeks ago.
Fe blindness for INTJ's translate as a genuine unawareness of how their actions or words might impact the feelings of people around them. They also have a hard time with what's considered a "normal social interaction" which can lead to some amusing scenarios 😂 like not being aware that someone is definitely flirting with them. They also have a hard time with boring small talk.
Not that ENTJ's particularly enjoy it, but it's not as taxing or bothering for us.
Well said regarding the blindspots! I did thing about adding that in here but I've mentioned it in other videos a to and I'm always conscious of repeating myself too much. ENTJ/INTJ friendship sounds like a powerhouse indeed!! I'm curious about any observations you have? ~ Nathan
@@lovewho
I don't really know from where to start xD there's so much to say.
The coolest thing that I've experienced is how similar our perception of things are. It's like finding a person who speaks the same language as you when no one else does.
A little example of it is definitely humour. In highschool, we started hanging out together just because I was the only person who understood her weird hilariously stupid jokes and stories. And that's how we basically became friends.
Another awesome thing about hanging out with her from a relatively young age (around 18) is that it made me mature way more quickly, obviously because of the heavy Ni influence she had on me.
I think it made me a bit less arrogant than if I never knew her. And way less reckless when it comes to my emotions or actions.
On the other hand, I always take charge of the Te / Se stuff and push her to go do the boring but important things to achieve what she / we want. In the first years, I was a bit overbearing xD but it got better with the years.
To be a bit more objective, I'll give you some "downsides" to the INTJ/ENTJ pair. Even though the benefits definitely outweigh them 😂.
1/ Because we both are very goal oriented, we rarely go out to new places if we don't have a Te reason to do it. So we truly experienced a social isolation for a long time xD but I'm not really regretting it because we've been pondering over our existence during that time, and it definitely made me more InTouch with my Fi.
2/ Sometimes, we both enter in a pure NT mode and end up neglecting our emotions. It happened more in our early 20's than now, but I'm still a bit guilty of it 🙄.
I think I'll stop here 😂 or I'll end up writing an article. If you have more specific questions, I'll be happy to answer them for you. 😊
as an ENTJ, I am terrible when it comes to remembering anything outside of work, especially doctor/dentist appointments and yeah we'll go as far as even remembering family members birthdays, I literally have to force myself to remember to just set a reminder on my iPhone to remind me of my appointment or birthday that is coming up lol....or literally text my mom the special date and she already knows what that means, to remind her daughter of this upcoming appointment lol I can't help it...I really do try but I got bigger more important priorities on my mind that take precedence. lol
thank you for this comment! I really feel like that explanation of the blind spots could help me figure out the entj/intj better. However I somewhat relate to both, even though i relatr a bit more to one of them.
Could you possibly explain some other blind spots or traits? (mainly about entjs?)
Thanks!
It's the accent
'I think they call them... humans'
LMAO I knew it was coming, I was waiting for it, and it still hit hard when you said it.
Fe sucks. Offense may be intended.
-INTJ
Edit: yes, it was the eyebrows.
"Offense may be intended" is my quote of the day! ~ Nathan
“Fe sucks” I agree as an ENTJ, to me so does Fi, any feeling function sucks lmao 🤣
@@lovewho Try this INTJ mug
/-You want to know why?
@Kathlyn P.
I'm an INFJ (high Fe) and I agree that Fe sucks. x)
Fe, Fi matter though I like infps and enfj - I'm a entp/j
So imagine an ENTJ and an INTJ are working towards two opposite goals, and somewhere along the line they meet. Would that be like an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?😂
Wow. The “take action, fail 1st, re adjust”, is probably one of the most concise criteria for differentiating between the 2 types. You’re also bang on about ENTJs confusion about being an introvert or “extra”vert. I’m laughing because ENTJ & INTJ share the same “irritating & stupid problems“ in the real world. ps “orientated” is actually starting to sound right to me 😁
I'm slowly popularising orientated to the US audience. Glad you enjoyed the video ~ Nathan
Spent almost 23 years thinking I was INTJ. It took two more MBTI tests and an ended relationship with an INTJ to figure out I'm actually ENTJ. I think your video pretty much summed up the chemistry between us two.
Wow, thats brilliant. What was it that convinced you that you were an ENTJ? Obviously the comparisons between you and the INTJ you were in a relationship but still, I'm curious if there was a specific moment/reason? ~ Nathan
@@lovewho You said it yourself. It all came down at the end with my initiative preceding my analysis. ENTJs are like INTJs, but with the ability to follow through.
I was always confused about whether I was an entj or an intj. I originally always thought I was intj, because I didn’t socialize too much and enjoyed planning. But when group work hit, I immediately took charge and started delegating tasks - it was enjoyable for me to tell others what they need to do and I didn’t need a middle man. But I believe although I’m entj, I can still be very intj at times. Thanks for the insight!
As a strong Te user, I have always been unsure if I am an ENTJ or INTJ. I have a hard time deciding which is my dominant function. My child function is much easier, Fi without doubt. I have always taken pride in who I am, and what I value. I like the feeling of being unique. Inferior function? I am pretty oblivious to my surroundings!
this. this is me
Yes, same here. Ni-Te are so together, inseparably enmeshed in me I never knows if I am doing taking action because of the motivation (Ni fueling Te) or the opposite.
And I like hugging/physical (some few) people that I enjoy being around... but I am not the best with Se either (oblivious to surroundings or physical sensations). So what are we ? Are XNTJs considered as a valid category ?
I'm 100 percent ENTJ, I have had so many struggles over my 33 years trying to figure out why I am the way I am. For a bit there I thought I was a prick and had a hard time connecting with emotions like everyone else. But then I finally came across your channel and man, what a fkn relief... Its all making sense now and I can finally say I'm one step closer to self acceptance and happiness
ENTJ confirmed by your eyebrows. 💋
I've been told that my eyebrows are in fact ENTJs themselves... ~ Nathan
@@lovewho That may be true as they are sexy af 😋
@@lovewho Is this an ENTJ thing: giving compliments to strangers and compliment themselves at the same moment? ;)
@@lovewho hahaha
Entj and have an ENTJ eye brows :p :p
Your INTJ comments were all spot-on for me. In my career, I haven’t ever been the top dog. However, I find myself in a sort of “critical advisor” position to whomever that person is, whether it’s part of my job description or not. That being said, being the top dog doesn’t draw my interest unless it allows me to achieve something I want.
"Critical advisor" - I think this is the role that most suits INTJs, it balances the need for control/influence with the desire for detachment ~ Nathan
Love Who Yeah...the thought of being “on the hook” for everyone’s nonsense all the time is enough to keep me happily in the background.
@@lovewho Consultant. Or evil vizier. You pick.
I found this very interesting (and, yes, the eyebrows are a factor - ha). I'm an INTJ and I've been involved in a court case where an incompetent judge was an ENTJ. Her biggest downfall was that she placed great importance on making a final decision quickly rather than making sure the decision was fair and just. She also came to very quick (incorrect) judgments about my character as a person. As you say so well, ENTJ goes for speed and INTJ goes for quality.
Edit: I've since learned that the judge was, in fact, an ESTJ and not an ENTJ. An ENTJ would not have been incompetent. Apologies to anyone I offended with my incorrect earlier statement. Ah, the paradox of accusing someone of coming to a quick, incorrect judgment about character and then, myself, coming to a quick, incorrect judgment about their personality type :/
I had to laugh at your mother organizing the living room analogy. As an ENTJ when I purchase a purse, I look for ease of use. Does it have an outside pocket for my phone to grab easily? Does it have the appropriate pockets and compartments for the items that I need regularly, and another one for less needed items? I do this with everything! My kitchen is set up for maximum efficiency. I have cubbies and cases etc for items as to not lose them. It is comical.
This is so Te!! I greatly appreciate that skill set though, it's so useful. So much time and energy is lost through inefficiancy and you guys are just masters at it ~ Nathan
My bench top bothers me. It is currently 4 steps away from a sink and a hotplate and I want it to be 0-1. I can make it 2 if I swap the places with a fridge, but then it's door would be opening on the wrong side and I can't rehang the door neither. It feels like a stalemate :(
I'm ENFJ and I'm kind of like that. How that's possible?
Besides Nathan's eyebrows obviously, I subscribed because this is one of the few mbti channels where types are discussed in a way I find is correct, taking functions and function dynamics in consideration, instead of just the dichotomies or socionics gibberish.
The videos are short, on point and well discussed, so whenever I watch I feel like I learned something or integrated better something I already knew, in a very short time.
Many mbti channels tend to ramble for like 20-30 minutes straight, and I don't have time for that.
If you talked sometimes about type development the channel would be perfect to me ;)
Oh and I love the funny videos too!
Interesting idea. Type development is actually a great topic to delve into more! Glad you're enjoyed our content! ~ Nathan
A good distinction between INTJs and ENTJs are their freakouts. It was surreal to see how psycho the other person (not an ENTJ) went when we had a sewage overflow, only to catch myself crying the very same week because when I came to the work office on Sunday, there were other people there, and they were breathing
I was relating to both until you mentioned "observing the terrain" first, then coming up with a strategy. That's gotten me into a lot of tough spots in the workplace since others think of me as being timid (lol) for preferring to wait to act, so they don't consider me first or even second or third for ambitious projects.
This is fine, for the most part, since whatever I want to do is more important for what I want to accomplish, but, doors tend to close once the decision makers have labeled you incorrectly. So lately, I've been learning how to show off my skills and promote myself. I think it's **** disgusting and a waste of my time since the quality of a person's work should speak for itself, but I understand that people need to see "a leader" and *feel* inspired by a person before trusting them to carry out simple tasks, so I've been outwardly becoming a lady of action while secretly, I've just sped up the planning phase.
Oh and I subscribed because you're interesting.
Sneak in and crush them
Speed up the planning - that does work!
Agreed, it's a shame that the quality of a persons work often can go overlooked if they don't....market themselves the right way or tick those annoying social boxes. However, it is great that you already realise this and I'd much rather be in a position of having substance and improving my "style" than the other way around ~ Nathan
@Luce M Yes, I am American. You've summed up the traditional American corporate way pretty well.
Wow, are you my sibling? It is exactly like this in my experience. I don't like shameless promotion. I feel so repulsed when I see it, specially for small things. And no.. the quality of the work almost never speaks by itself, when looked by groups. And usually only when the person leaves they start to notice it instead if one is not into self-promotion ... "wow that person made a difference," - or even more indirectly - " something feels lacking, but I don't know what".
The channel brings seriousness and rationality to the subject without being tedious, and enlightens things that are usually very vague. Regardless of whichever type you are, you can always find something interesting. Keep up the good work.
This is really great to hear. Thank you! ~ Nathan
"Hope you are enjoying the english language we gave you" LMAO that killed me. I joined for jokes like these
I am an INTP, and just like any other INTP I like to hoard large amounts of information on topics that I have a slight interest in. MBTI is a bit more than "slightly" interesting to me, and for now I'm just trying to understand all of the 16 types better. Ofcourse someone talking about highly abstract stuff is always interesting to hear.
Wow, that resonated with me. I have such intense knowledge on subjects that I'm only a little interested in. What a weird trait we have... ~ Nathan
xNTJ: Knows what's best for people. ENTJ: Goes up to them and tells them.
Some really great insights here. Being "the immovable object" is absolutely one way I deal with outside chaos barging in. I often will just shut it down and refuse to partake. It's doesn't win you any congeniality ribbons.
This guy knows me more than I know myself.
I subscribed after the first or second video I saw on your channel, which is not what I often do. Your videos are short, get to the point, have real life examples of what certain cognitive functions do and you have subtile and sarcastic jokes (my favorite). The eyebrows also, of course. You're one of the best, if not the best channels on the personality types. English isn't my mother tongue so forgive me for any mistakes 🙏
It's awkward when someone who has English not as their first language, speaks it as well as you... Also thank you for your comment. Love hearing that! ~ Nathan
My brother just confirmed to me that he is an ENTJ while I'm an INTJ. This video puts everything into perspective with incredible accuracy.
Always love your analogy. ENTJ and INTJ have the same characteristics but how they use it (order of using it) is TOTALLY different so these two people are VERY different!
I've subscribed for the beautiful line of reasoning and logic weaving through your thick eyebrows in each and every videos of yours 🤩
No, seriously, you have no idea how irresistibly attractive it is!
Resisting the urge to say 'resistance is futile.' Thank you for this comment. Getting approval from an ENTJ never gets old! ~ Nathan
In my experience: entj’s are typically motivated by deeply *ingrained Fi values, whether or not they’re aware of it. They might unconsciously do things to satisfy it with their godsend Te in conjunction with their Se because they very much live in the physical world. They want tangible results for their work. The only thing I personally get tripped up on is where their Ni fits in all of this. Easiest way for me understand it is to say that their Ni (+their Se) gives them their flexibility and adaptability- as well as a picture of what “materialistic/real world” results (or “vision”) they want.
In conclusion: Entj’s are a bit of a mess once you look closely enough. Either that or I have no idea what I’m talking about. I’ll let you decide.
I'm here because of Nate's 'Ti'. As an INTJ, 'Ti' is my 'critic' and it's always amazing how my functional stack & cognitive processes totally differs from that of an INTP and yet both come up w/ the same exact grasp over MBTI concepts. For now, I'm trying to figure that out. xD
Fascinating. Different paths to the same destination... ~ Nathan
@@lovewho I see a few posts in the comments about 'Ti' being the 'critic' for INTJ's. I am interested in learning more about this topic on how this plays out for INTJ's if this sounds like a fun topic for one of your videos.
Love your channel - INTJ
Still looking for an ENTJ to take role of my front-facing partner.
No, your eyebrows were a bit repelling at first, but once your video just played on its own and I listened and it was nice, both your voice and the information it carries. Now I find this to be the best channel on MBTI. But I think you could use a better microphone, so market hard, get those mugs sold!
Interesting, Luann has been saying about getting a better microphone... maybe it's time to actually start upgrading some equipment! Also I'll invest in some eyebrow trimmers ~ Nathan
This video explained a lot. I’ve always been typed as an INTJ when I felt that INTJ doesn’t fit me 100%. With cognitive function tests, I’m sure of my Te because it is always the most/usually the most prominent. My enneagram is 8w7, so it’s understandable. Turns out I’m actually just socially introverted, but just cognitively extraverted. In reality, I’m just an introverted ENTJ.
I'm an INTJ and my daughter in an ENTJ. She loves my sarcasm and my analytical thinking but she always tells me that I can be rude or heartless with others who cant follow along. She is far more social than I am.
I'm INTJ and my daughter is ENTJ we had similar relationships lol
This channel gained my interest from the simple thumbnails, and the great analogies made me follow it.
Awesome! ~ Nathan
ENTJ here. I sometimes wonder if I’m really an INTJ because of how much I love strategy games (though I get bored of them quickly because they’re too easy and because I just have to do something more productive), but I think it was a good distinction of how they strategize differently. Good video. Also, I feel more like an ambivert than an extravert or introvert.
ENTJs I think more often than not identify as ambiverts!! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho entonces soy entj , pero m gusta estar tiempo a solas.
Me, an INTJ, "Oh if only there was a way for me to learn to better roll with the punches; to rise to every challenge and to take advantage of my circumstances in a way that frees me to exist in the most substantial way - " (ENTJ zooms past) "FOLLOW THAT HUMAN! ...And then subscribe to Love Who because we can all benefit from the decency of reflection"
PREACH! ~ Nathan
I subscribed because your vids are very accurate and insightful, more so than most other mbti vids i see. There are good in depth explanations of how cognitive functions work and how they differ in each position. The inside the mind vids were incredible and really one of a kind because most mbti vids tend to describe behaviour rather than thought process but yours provides an actual understanding for how others think. You're also funny and interesting
Love this ~ Nathan
2:11 INTJ
Te acts like a servant to Ni(their vision)
2:24 ENTJ
Ni creates goals for their Te to organize towards
2:32 ENTJ are strategizers, mobilizers first and only use goals to justify that
2:39 ENTJ find reasons to do things.
2:42 INTJ do things for a reason
No one “sums up” essential differences like this presenter. “ENTJ’s look for a reason to do something / INTJ’s do something for a reason.” Simply brilliant.
As an intj, I approve of the not so subtle and ongoing manipulation you employ to amass subs. I am a subscriber, but would do so again. Your thinly veiled manipulation amuses me to no end.
Lol!! Yea I don't know why I even try to hide it sometimes... also thank you for being a subscriber and commenting. Hopefully we keep you entertained and informed long into the future! ~ Nathan
I choked on my coffee when you said “I hope you enjoy the language we gave you” 😭😭💀💀😂😂
'INTJs are very good at being the iMmOvAbLe object when they need to be'
lmao literally probably just need to give a certain stare and they'll know that from that moment onwards I will be nothing more than a rock until shit goes down or magically changes
“Speed is fine, but accuracy is FINAL” - Wyatt Earp
I really really appreciate how you present those topics, how you explain ....seems so simple!
I wish I could explain myself to people as easily as you do! At least now I can share your videos with the people who want to understand me :-)
INTJ Female
I love your examples from everyday life and quotes. Also when you chose certain well known characters. That really helps to give shape to ideas.
Thank you! I would like to do more of that actually as I've found that applying it to well known real life/fictional characters has really helped my understanding of it ~ Nathan
Thanks, this is very interesting. Having taken the test I came out INTJ, but was 51/49 introvert/extrovert so very close to ENTJ. I have mostly INTJ traits, but for example I would always raise my hand to lead something first and I enjoy that, I don’t wait. As long as I’ve had alone time to recharge then I can behave in a very extroverted way in a group. It’s all very interesting. Thanks.
Thank you very much bro! Highly enlightening❤
i was stuck between ENTJ and INTJ and this video helped clarify. a large number of people are speaking of "entj's find reasons to do things, and intj's do things for a reason" line; that was one of the key clarification points. i never throw myself into a situation and find a reason as to why i am doing that, i sit back and decide if it is wise or not, and if it is, i go for it, and make myself the top at whatever that is
Intj here, everything in your video seems to be 100% accurate in regards to how I perceive my own processes, I’ve swung back and forth in my head on whether I’m an Intj or Entj as I love conversation and interaction with people when it’s deeply thought out philosophical, political or theological conversation, I find I have an overwhelming desire to communicate information and test the accuracy of both my ideas and my opponent’s. If anyone with more advanced knowledge of the personality types could sort this out for me that’d be much appreciated (Great vid btw very fascinating)
You sound like an INTJ not ENTJ
You sound like an INTJ not ENTJ
Putting a partner for the leadership role while leading behind the scene.
very interesting.
🤝👍
As an ENTJ, I've realized that everything is too easy. We learn very quickly, see what needs to be done, figure out how to do it, then jump ship to the next opportunity once it's done and we've gained all there is to gain. Having a natural desire to lead paired with an extroverted personality, people just naturally like you and will make it easier for you to attain your goals.
Nathan.... your Eyebrows are wonderful but the way you master all topics in your channel is Amazing.
I mean...flattery will get you everywhere ~ Nathan
as a 17 year old ENTJ i subscribed to your channel
1. Great information
2. Comfortable and enjoyable videos
3. The way you swing your hands 24/7 while talking
4. Eyebrows
5. Thats it
I'm 25 (nearly 26), hearing from a 17 year old makes me feel like 100 years old ~ Nathan
"ENTJs find reasons, to do things; INTJs do things, for a reason"
My takeaway.
Thanks so much for putting your time into this video. Loads a learning! 🙂
Another reason why many cannot tell us apart is because of our Ambivert members... Those who seems more quite/sociable than whats percieve from the description provided by the MBTI.
Im an INTJ Ambivert. I tend to be more social, talkative and aproachable...BUT...my personal time, boundaries, moral system and values are pretty well defined. I knew my type One day when realizing Se users freaks me out... They got me to my nerves... Chao, Chaos, Chaos, 🙃☢️🤣.
When pushed, we tend to be almost stuck in a point... Untill NI finally delivers a plan to proceed.
Ur analysis was pretty explícit, efficient and clear.
Well made ;} ... And yes, the eyebrows was the reason 😅☺️
As an INTJ sometimes not most of the times I take leadership roles because I like to have control but then I realize that I really don’t like to be on the spotlight and it ends with up being a very stressful period for me. But probably it happens because I’m 16 and maybe I don’t have developed my Fi enough because it’s my tertiary function.
Waoh the part where you say entj is more action intj is more planning that is so true holy molly
It's definitely something that I've noticed as a difference between them! ~ Nathan
Concise in depth explanations with good examples and key differentiating points that rather expose the source of the difference rather than the effects of it. "This is where they are different, this is why they are different, here's an example".
Thank you!!!!! ~ Nathan
[Seizing control by force]
ENTJ: Mafia kingpin
INTJ: Poison mixer
This is the best INTJ vs ENTJ video I've ever seen. Always knew I was INTJ but this has confirmed it
As an INTJ, I tested several times at different places over time and I mostly come borderline to ENTJ. Too close to call, like 53 to 47. Which means I can easily switch between the two. Makes sense.
This helps navigate the human entropy around.
Navigating human entropy. it's amusing watching that from the other side as an ambivert or ENTJ. Though i don't fall far from the INTJ tree but I'd like to believe I'm certainly better than a core INTJ is managing those entropies
Your penguin mug ROCKS!
Chaos is the devil. Separately, to answer your outro question, I subscribed to your channel because much of the videos that showed up in my recommends had INTJ in them and your analysis, breakdowns, and comparisons are 100% flawlessly resonant with my day to day experience. Even though I try to denounce the need for validation, I desperately crave it none the less.
I subscribed because your videos are short, they get to the point, there's a little humor, I like listening to you talk, they're informative and your name is Nathan just like my big brother.
Love this! ~ Nathan
Yes you're right. As an ENTJ, I always put my role high in every organization. I noticed this trait when I learnt to swim, my trainer thought I learn to swim just for fun but I learnt so fast and make my self as a fastet learner and fasted swimmer in the school😂 actually I had no intention at first but after seeing people swimming above my level(I started beginner) then I decided to be a pro and I did it without reason😂 till now I don't know why I did it
Thanks for the insight! I am the ENTJ looking for a cause. I tend to jump into situations when I feel I "need" to intervene and control. But as you said in the video, what needs to be done is not necessarily what I need or want for myself. Social standards aside, I find it difficult to find a cause good enough to sacrifice my time and energy...
Me and my best friend are INTJ and ENTJ respectively. She’s the extrovert that adopted me, an introvert and that’s how I’ve been surviving till today 🤷🏻♀️
Another thorough compare and contrast. Subscribed because you know how to hit the target on these topics.
Thank you!!! ~ Nathan
I think that was a Bingo when you said an INTJ and problems which they call human , I am an INTJ subscribed for your channel as I liked your way in representing and analyzing between characters , I do not know but there is some points specially in INTJ it is deep as hell you touched very well,haha
Also your way of talking is calm and I like calmness, I am afraid that you think me flirting . LOL , thank you for that video
I don't mind a bit of flirting in the comment section... ~ Nathan
This is so true. I'm now seeing an entj guy. I met him in school. We are in the same team and the same module. We both lead but I tend to step in only when the leadership isn't strong or I feel like more things can be done to improve the work. He, on the other hand, is very comfortable with leading and enjoys it.
Subscribed and been watching for a while now. I really like the in-depth analysis. I am an INTJ, but as you said (and I burst out laughing), "...full of lots of often very irritating and stupid problems to deal with... I think they call them humans." It's so true!
Couldn't resist saying that line, thank you for your comment! ~ Nathan
It was the eyebrows man, You are so funny I have been watching the video but I was not a subscriber but eventually, you cracked me with the eyebrows. hahaha
im a very introverted ENTJ 😁 i act extroverted IF im around people, but i prefer to be alone 99.9% of the time ! so yeah maybe i am an intj?
from your explanations, i can relate to both of them really in certain aspects.
I always test as ENTJ but the description of the INTJ seems to fit much better.
I'm an ENTJ who experiences this too. Maybe it's not so uncommon. I thought I was an intj for a while, but after studying cognitive functions (and discussing them with my INTJ and ENFP buddies) I came to the conclusion of ENTJ
I loved your intj commentary... and the gratitude from giving us a language.
I am enamoured by your level of competence!
I’m an INTJ and my children’s father is an ENTJ. Smh… it was such an incredible partnership. He, (in addition to everything else he was doing that day), got me outside doing things and everything always went so smoothly… no matter what we did… even with toddlers, babies and strollers in tow. On another note, he was much more educated than me and would be bewildered at how I could easily figure things out that he needed to know ‘the formula’ for. Between the two of us, I seemed more like the outgoing one and he… the stone faced serious one… but… he was definitely an ENTJ and I’m definitely an INTJ (highly possibly jumper). He was so serious (except around his children… the only time he smiled)… that even our daughter will ask, “What did you see in him?” Even though he couldn’t figure me out, I understood him… and it just worked. No, we’re not together and have not been for decades… but… that’s another story.
Good luck on your INTJ life. Glad to hear you had such an ENTJ partnership
You are fabulous and yes it’s the eyebrows and your directness!!
I have always balanced on the knife-edge of INTJ and ENTJ. The latter comes out in situations when the SHTF. when things are going smoothly, I manifest much more as INTJ.
same
Well shit, here is was always sure I was an ENTJ. I always test as one. I even am the one to say "I am sometimes extroverted and sometimes introverted". But a lot of what you said for INTJ makes sense. And I never test that high extroverted, just slightly more than introverted 🤔
Ambivert? I'm an INTJ, or at least always test that way, but I find that I don't get socially drained that quickly.
@@KnightsaysNi I’ve dug a lot into objective personality and a bit into CS Joseph since making this comment and I’m definitely an ENTJ. Objective personality has a great video about the introverted/extroverted scale. Everyone seems to think they’re an ambivert but it’s because not many types are truly all the way on either end.
"unstoppable force meets an immovable object" - entj vs intj.
Very good contrasts!
I was hoping you'd wear black for a change. 😀
This is the best clarification I’ve heard, and I’ve been struggling with my own type (XNTJ) for some time. Being very much an ‘ambivert’ it was helpful to hear your clarification here in terms of introversion vs extroversion for the ENTJ. I tire of human company quite quickly however if I haven’t had it in a while I need it. I’m probably an extrovert functionally but REALLY like to moderate and control how much time I spend with people. Does this sound typical of an ENTJ?
I took a personality test and found out, that I'm an INTJ. That was a surprise and so, I need more information about personality types. That's why I subscribed to your channel. I like how You provide the information and it also seems to be more than "just an opinion". Is it?
Yeah, he is pretty good.
Short and to the point.
Well I subscribed to this channel to hear an ESTPs take on typological related things buuuut 🤔. . . Just kidding love you and your eyebrows Nathan. Where would this channel be without them?
LOL! I can send you a cutting of my eyebrows if that would help ~ Nathan
Love Who it would only help if I knew how to make Voodoo dolls and I don’t so. . . Wait you trim them and they still look like that?!
@@JessBritvec Thats a subtle blend of terrifying and appealing. Honestly, one of my continual life goals is to maintain having two eyebrows rather than one really big one ~ Nathan
I hadn't subscribed until you mentioned the eyebrows 😂😂😂
I at first didn't relate to your description of the ESTJ walking into the room and organizing it most effectively.....until I remembered organizing my shipping and receiving area at work, and having a Definite Pattern of how I unpacked and checked things in, and how it bothered me endlessly when people would "help" and just....put things wherever? come on dude I have a reason for why I put each thing where it goes! I don't want to have to handle it three times if twice will do! D:
Chaotic and messy and full of.....humans. Why the world gotta be like that :(
Immovable object has always well described my particular brand of stubbornness. As a kid I wouldn't *fight* with my parents... I just wouldn't do anything I didn't want to do. (Probably still accurate, just more subtle and have realized as a grown up that some times these things are necessary to achieve my goals XD)
Great video as always. Thanks for sharing :D
(And yes, it's definitely the eyebrows.)
Edit: Seriously though the combo of the pleasant voice (with the enjoyable difference in accent), nice low IN energy (no extra visual or auditory chaos :D), and of *course* the humor...especially the deadpan deliveries. I'd watch your videos on anything I was at all interested in.
Thank you for this comment, this is awesome to hear!!! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho :D
(if you're wondering: the *actual* expression on my face is a very slight one sided smile. But I mean :D by it! ...something like that....)
I luv the part u tried to explain the "hard to deal with", "stupid" obstacles
I am an INTJ but what made me hesitate is that in a group, I want to lead, I don't always like it, but I want to do it anyways.
Definitely not the eyebrows xD
But I really liked the to-the-point factual approach with actually relatable examples for my type, INTJ. Most of stuff that I have seen so far make INTJs sound so grandiose that I doubted my identity altogether when the loops hit me xD
Also, I really like the community of this channel. The content creator takes the effort to reply to most comments, and the viewers too reach out if someone seems like they need help.
I want to thank two of the commenters in one of my previous comments on your video when I was having an identity crisis. Especially the person who recommended reading philosophy, or at least directed my attention towards it -I wanted to thank them personally but I can't find that comment- . I understand that commenting to all viewers with a growing viewerbase will be difficult but I would like to enjoy the luxury while it still lasts :3
Honestly, I've always had the mindset of, "if someone takes the time to watch one of my ramblings on RUclips and comments, then if possible, I should definitely respond to it." More than that, it's actually very fun based on the quality of comments/commenters we get!! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho Glad to be a part of this healthy and wholesome community ^^
I am kinda curious about this channel's creation. Will we ever get a video on the BTS of this channel?
That's spot on. I'd take in my surroundings first before making any decisions to do anything
