It's great to see this common mistype finally getting some attention - great job my friend, very nicely presented comparison! Also, cheers for the shout-out at the beginning!
Cheers, Harry! Thank you for the kind words. Not sure if I mentioned previously, but I've got your book in my Kindle app. You're next in the queue. 😈 Hope you're doing well, friend!
I'm working up to something like this, but unfortunately I know I will inject my own theories into it. Lol. Just gotta include a lot of caveats, I guess.
I’ve found this page (4 links for each letter pair) really useful. www.myersbriggs.org/my-mbti-personality-type/mbti-basics/ Then, if you’re able to narrow it down to a few, this site has some (sometimes eerily) thorough descriptions that help confirm/deny! www.personalitypage.com/html/portraits.html
You may study but first find what motivates you. You look at RUclips finding those tubers that stimulate your neurons and affects, it is an open adventure of discovery of frames of reference, patterns , and choosing along the way . Pursue your daily immediate interest and follow your interest. That is how I got into it, it will be a long and fun journey because you will see others differently , not only yourself, that is what it is for me. Happy New Year 2022
WOW you summed up demon Si vs Se SO WELL for me. When you said ENTP could have control imposed upon us from outside, I had a visceral body reaction remembering all the times that has been my experience because I refused to get more of my shit together. The Ni-Se/Ne-Si difference is SO KEY here. I had been typed as INFJ on 16 personalities for many years until OBS showed me I'm an ENTP. Which of course makes my life make so much more sense
I’ve always found the INFJ requirement for Quite vs the ENTP requirement for stimulation to be and effective decider. INFJs love quite, while ENTPs love a noisy environment.
This reminds me of the Great Gatsby quote, "I like large parties. They're so intimate. At small parties you can't get any privacy," because I am an INFJ and expectedly not a fan of any party--I dislike the feeling that I HAVE TO be social--but in a bigger crowd I can just blend in, zone out,, and relax. For me, most noise can be made white noise.
I'm an ENTP, and noisy environments exhausts me. Especially if I'm going through something. It's just too many things to take in, because I can't filter it out. But having crazy discussions in small groups or one on one gives me a kick.
I guess I correctly typed myself as an ENTP thanks to this video, if only because of how I was like "wtf are jumpers" and then figured it out seconds later as I kept watching. P.S. you are attractive, charming, etc
Excellent explanation. Nothing in this video was hard to follow, even when you began talking about deeper particulars like OP coins. Your ability to use a storytelling format to tease apart and illuminate pathways of reason is what sets you apart and draws people in to seek answers here. Really beautiful alignment. You're so good
Hillary! This means so, so much to me. 💜 Storytelling has always felt like my strong suit, but it wasn't obvious early on that I could incorporate it as a tool for explaining in this way. I'm grateful that it's effective for you and others.
I was going to sleep but i just got this; Fun Fact: you most probably wont see an ENTP go talk with their crush because. ENTPs be like “Thoughts Before Thots”
nice video man. still I can't determine it because I'm stuck between these 2 types: Ne ti cs/b(p) & Ni ti sc/b(p) I have heard that masculine Ne can come out as Ni and that makes me so confused. I also do these things: 1- I don't like chaos, but actually my room isn't organized. 2- I used to go to the gym for 2 years but lost interest. 3- I did so many things and lost interest, but I did them for a long period like at least a year. 4- I like to understand things deeply, and I spend so much time tryin to understand something I'm interested in. 5- I have a library of so many books in different fields and I only read like half of each book because of losing interest. It's just so confusing u can't imagine.
Glad you liked the video, dude! As for your type... I can definitely see the conundrum. Those two types will be more alike than most people would think. A Play-last ENTP can leave people scratching their heads, because you're taking something that people consider to be essential to the type and chucking it into the corner. Lol. Of course, they're wrong. ;) Basically, because you're stuck, it's time to introduce another couple of typing tools to your arsenal. I normally try to take a personality type and break it down into as many binary 'coins' as possible. This includes 'temperament coins.' As a CP/B(S) ENTP, I prefer NT > SF and NF > ST, based on the functions attached to my top two animals. You'll notice that both of the types that you're stuck between favor NT > SF and ST above SF, so those coins won't seem particularly useful, but... Perhaps it would help to think about which 'temperament' you're NOT, since these two types will have different temperaments attached to their last animals. The ENTP will have the NF temperament at the very bottom, while the INFJ will have the SF temperament at the bottom. Which is least like you? Are you less of an NF 'hippie' with all of their talk of values at an abstract level, or do you feel most alienated from the 'SF' of what is valuable in the here and now of the real world? Time for tool #2. I think you should film yourself rambling about whatever tickles your fancy. Then you're gonna watch that footage back while looking for the distinction between channel-changing and chapter-talking. Gonna copy and paste something that I wrote elsewhere that I think may help you... Some people, while in a calm flow state, have a persistent practice of starting in one place and then bouncing over here, and then over there, and then over here again… These people are ‘changing the channel,’ so to speak. Rather than presenting others with already-processed information, the impression is almost as if they are uncovering their answers in real-time, allowing themselves to stray as they explore through their sentences. In extreme cases, other people may watch them and wonder, “What’s your point, exactly?” On the other hand, chapter talking is more structured and pre-digested. It can carry you from A to B to C with purpose where channeling changing is happier to take many detours. In the worst of times, people may interact with a chapter talker and think, “When will you stop lecturing at me?” Which side of this continuum are you closer to? If you’re a channel changer, chances are good that your observing function is extraverted. But if you’re a chapter talker, you’re likely favoring your introverted observer. Again, I want to reiterate the importance of the ‘flow state.’ Everyone can and will do everything at times. The channel changer can slow down and string ideas together sequentially. The chapter talker will derail themselves if they’ve neglected some important detail. You’re looking for which comes more easily. Which do you resist less? For some points of reference, check out some interviews with Imogen Heap to see channel changing in action. Then see Sonia Sotomayor for a showcase of chapter talking. Good luck!
@@AutoAlchemy thanks so much man. I guess it's more clear now, and I'm definitely goin to film myself as you said. that's a great idea. I really appreciate your time and your thoughts. you're awesome dude, thank you.
Speaking from experience, if you are still not sure if you are an ENTP or not, even after consulting 50+ sources and taken more than ten tests and still you need to see more sources and more opinions to make up your mind. Then most likely you are an ENTP or not, who knows? might as well go to another Ne TI trip to find whether you are an ENTP or not.
I can certainly relate to this... I feel like I am both INFJ and ENTP. When I was younger, my ENTPly traits were very obvious, I have no doubt I was purely ENTP by then. But familial issues and expectations bring me intense stress and anxiety, at least for a while. Then, it was as if I start to mature, and I turned very INFJly... I love the ENTP's inventing, creating and debating; I also love the INFJ's literacy, arts, complex thinking; I have both deep analysis of everything (Ni and Ti), and also deep care for others (Fe). But when I appear in various social situations, mostly at school, I am very keen on expressing myself, sharing my opinions and arguments and all the ideas in my head. I join a debating club and feel I really belong. Recently I do a lot of research on MBTI, including the cognitive functions etc.. For me, it is as if my secondary and tertiary function, Fe and Ti are equal. I show a lot of Ni and sometimes Ne. As if my INFJly and ENTPly self blends together. I have a hypothesis that perhaps my personality shift might be due to major changes in my life...I question myself whether I am objective enough, and decide that I might have entered the Ni-Ti loop, so I come to ask you for some advice. Thank you for your patience, if you are reading this line!
It's the same with me! I'm an INFJ, but I feel like my Fe and Ti are almost equal, and my Ne is more developed than the typical INFJ. I have questioned many times whether I was an ENTP, but I relate to most INFJ descriptions more.
@_Hedura_ Thanks for sharing your opinion! 2 years after making the comment, and seeing this now, I could agree with you that the stereotypes of each MBTI type are not meaningful. Through MBTI I was trying to discovering my identity, but as time passes, I don't believe in the need to really "fit" into any MBTI type anymore, nor think that I am a certain type; the categorisation doesn't tell a lot about who one is or what one's interests are.
@@popupexistence9253 Looool. Have you ever watched Davie504? How's it going TYPERS? ✋ *Smack sound* Symbol reveal at 10,000 subs. What?!? You are not subscribed? ILLEGAL.
ITS A LONG COMMENT, AT LEAST SEE MY LAST PARAGRAPH !!!! 👇👇👇 It’s actually funny cause I’m an infj and by big bro is entp and we were both really chocked to see that people have difficulties making difference between the two types... I mean, there almost opposite, just looking at the letters (only the N in common) but also when ya look at the fonctions, my weakness is his strength lol To be honest I don’t think someone who wonders that could be neither of those two personalities (since were both outcasts of society, we instantly felt the feeling of someone getting us when we read our descriptions). But I still wanna try to help out those who are still confused at the end of this vid (personally, I really didn’t get the contrast thing😅)... so! Infj spend most of their time observing people, they LOVE to get how the human brain work, personality traits, people’s flaws/qualities, etc. We also do a lot of “existential anxiety”, which basically means that we stress a lot about “the real world, outside of our own abstract brain”. It makes it difficult, sometimes, to put ourselves out there as we truly are, so some of us (the unhealthy one) decide to back down to the défense mechanism of pretending to have an entirely different personality (since they get people so good, it’s easy for infj’s to imitate other types, which is dangerous because they can end up forgetting who the truly are). Finally, infj are really compassionate (do we write it like that?), warm hearted people, who crave at helping others, they just can’t help themselves, it hurts them to see someone hurt (and when I say “hurts them”, it’s really not metaphorical). Now the entp isn’t the devil, and I know it for a fact because my brothers an entp and despite his flaws, he’s a very open minded guy. Entp’s are rationate people, the LIVE for debates and new ideas. An entp brain is always on movement, thinking about new ideas, theories, ways to see life RATIONALLY/Logically. It doesn’t mean they’re robots, it just means that they don’t consider feelings as an important part of a debate, which is opposed to the way infjs see life. A really easy way to spot an entp/know if you’re one would be that, since they are extraverted, they tend/need to process most of all the ideas they have by brainstorming it all in the face of someone. In other words, they need to talk to others about their train of thoughts to “select” the logical/good ideas from the unlogical one. See, the two strongest fonctions of an entp are, 1. Having ideas (a lot about various subjects) and 2. Filter those ideas threw logic. So they often will talk a lot about weird subjects randomly to people (such as conspiracy theories or philosophical thoughts) because it helps them select the logical (“good”) ideas from the unlogical (“bad”) ones. But see, they in fact don’t give a fuck about the truth, the “answer”, like infj’s and intj’s do, they really just want to explore all the most logical possibilities! Which makes them very open minded people, because they are open to all kinds of ideas, as long as they find them interesting. Moreover, most of them do not consider themselves neither right winged nor left-winged (to stay open to all pov), they do anyway value a lot independance, liberty and anarchism. While infj’s way to perceive an good working society would be an equal, ethical one, entp would prefer no society at all, since society&governments represent control, which is opposed to liberty. Btw, if yur an infj, you at least tried to read all of this text, while if yur entp, ya probably scrolled to another comment or, in the best scenario, skipped to the end, because yur too fuckin lazy 😂😂😂
Just to say, there is obviously more things to say about both types, I really just concentrated myself on the strongest, most obvious strength and qualities both types have, but this should be enough to know if yur entp, infj or neither of them (which is really possible)
Holy Shit! I've been wathing soooo many videos about ENTP vs INFJ and it just seems like people that actually make videos about those topis lack practical knowlege. You just blew my mind, honestly! I'm an ENTP female (At least I think so) and always doubting if I'm actually one (classic lol), but this text you wrote is so goddam hella good, Malek! I believe that saying "DUH ENTPS WON'T EVEN BOTHER READING SUCH TEXT" is kinda stupid, honestlly. We are intellectual beings who enjoy some reading as well!! (as long as the topic is interesting for us). Anyway, I just wanna say thank you for commenting your hella long text xD you just helped me figure it out! I'm just like that, I CRAVE debating my ideas and concepts. I even overload ppl doing it. This process helps me a lot with releasing anxiety and overthinking. I feel trapped when I can't experience new ideas, I usually enjoy living them but reading and watching videos about topics of my interest usually seal the deal as well, but I crave debating them and stop the crazy gathering at times. I don't actually have strong values so it's crazy hard for me to make decisions. Furthermore, my biggest fear is to feel that I am in a situation which I have no power of decision making. Also, the thing is (I think) : we're already born BEYOND good and evil. We are not discussing if something is right or wrong. In the other hand, ENTPs see the big picture and the outcome it all will bring, therefore our thoughts flow more like nature's cycles: nothing personal, it's just in the name of growth and improvement! :) That's why we admire so much INFJ's, I guess? They bring more love to our raw/logic perspectives, balancing our bluntness and bringing more warmth to our ice cold hearts. At least that's what the INFJ I had a thing did to me.He brought a warmful and kind/meaningful perspective to my cold and nihilist/scheptical database lol, also he was so damn private about his true self that I felt enchanted and willing to experience him little by little, keeping the novelty ans wonder. Thanks A LOT Malek! Stay awesome
Thanks it’s super kind of you to give your own perception from the other side! reading my comment now, there would be some improvements to be made in my overall analysis, but I’m so happy that I could give you the satisfaction of detaining an information that makes everything hold together. I liked your example with the infj guy you know, because I really think that the best you can get in a relationship is your opposite. I’m myself looking forward to meet some Xstp someday😉 you do seem like an entp-A by reading your comment, or if not then an entj-T. They do say infj’s are very private, and I am too, but I still don’t understand why😅happy to see some people like that cause it’s actually a part of myself that I’m trying to change..!
Please also do an ENTP vs ENFP. I’m confused because when i do the test I always get f and t within 2% i’ve took the test in many websites. For Example Like 49% feeling and 51% Thinking. And sometimes the other way around.
I think self-awareness and/or lack thereof might confuse these two types. I am INFJ, but I certainly don't feel as "radiant" as my ENTP friends seem to suggest I am. I could understand being one and thinking perhaps I was the other.
Oh yeah. That helped a lot. I felt a little panic as he described that search for newness/chaos. I like things orderly and when it's not I find a way to make it at least feel like it is.
Well I'm definitely PBCS while my boyfriend seems to be NiTi/SCPB, at least Sleep over Play. Aside from that we're VERY similar in many ways. So this would make me NeFe = ENTP according to this model. But seeing all the stereotypes (the trolling and the God-complex) I have a very hard time believing it, yet nothing else quite fits the same. EDIT: You're actually one of the seemingly rare balanced ENTPs out there who I have more in common with in the way of expressing myself.
Thanks for sharing your reflections! Yes, that's a huge issue with the stereotypes. One reason I enjoy this particular model is that it challenges stereotypes by being so expansive but it also acknowledges that these preference sets we have are all potentially unstable and pendulum-like. There will be swings, particularly if you avoid the other side of a binary. This is way more in alignment with Jung's original thoughts on type. Type is supposed to be a starting point. He said something along the lines that anyone who overly identified with a type might as well be identified with a corpse. 😅 Something to think about.
LOL. The ENTPs and INTJs I know are almost all intellectual "enemies" (i.e, opposing politics). ENTPs and INFJs are match made in heaven though. ENTPs are the more spontaneous, adventurous INFJs. And INFJs are the more structured and somber ENTPs. Both are empathetic thinkers (Fe-Ti users).
heyy Jeffrey i have a question about being an INFJ or an ENTP i don't know if im an extrovert or an introvert or a feeler and a thinker how do i know that? because when i was younger i was the kind of girl who most of the time was playing alone and i struggle a little bit to try new experiences also i was kind of organized, even tho i was never the type of girl who was in the back of the class reading a book and doing that kind of stuff?? i rather go to speak with my classmates or friends and make people laugh that was kind of my "hobby" i was super friendly and social but never wanted to have a deeper connection with this people since it makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable or weird but at the same time i wanted to be accepted and be their "friends" and get invited to their birthdays but somehow i didn't consider them like my "friends" its kind of confusing. also i never felt that drained feeling after being in a large group of people instead i feel more dynamic than when i spent time with myself, when i im not in a group of people i usually feel depressed or sad with no motivation in life lol also people have called me a "reserved person" but i don't see myself like that, i can talk to people and share with them my "stuff" but is hard for me to talk about my feelings i don't know why... the other thing is that people would say that i like following routines or having things planned but thats more of a trait of INFJ's, but my mom would say to me that im kind of spontaneous for example i wanted to play the cello but i only played it for one year (i got bored...) the same happens with playing the piano i would get distracted super easily because i would switch songs every 3 days and i never got the chance to finish one simply song, i feel more like a P rather than a J. the other thing is that people see me as a very calm person and the others will say that im a super energetic girl and sometimes they would called me "chaotic energy" but is not always the same... its hard for me to show my real me (i feel more like the energetic girl...) Another thing is that my mom would always remind me that im kind of an analytical but super creative at the same time i don't know if that means something? the thing is that im having a reallyyy hard time knowing who actually i am because all of these years i have built my own identity by how other people see myself and its hella confusing
Hello! :) Thanks for reaching out with this fascinating self-analysis. It can be tough to interpret stuff like this virtually without seeing the 'state' your in when you're sharing with me. That being said, I want to start off with a tip for determining F versus T. I personally think that your weakest functions align with your triggers. Think about situations that trigger you to the point that you lose sight of yourself and that make you ask 'Wow, what came over me?' Is there a pattern of particular things that set you off... Did someone ask you to be 'more appropriate' or more 'ethical?' If this is triggering, there's a good chance you have your Thinking function above your Feeling function. On the other hand, Feelers will be triggered when they feel people are sending the message that they are unintelligent, unable to solve and troubleshoot problems. It's basically about where you feel 'stuck' -- the places where you feel like you either can't grow or don't need to grow or don't want to. Besides that, I would say you seem a bit more on the extraverted side based on everything you said. You should look more into the idea of 'jumpers' in the Objective Personality System. There's a chance you could be one and this is causing some of your difficulty in typing. :)
@@AutoAlchemy thank you! i think i have the thinking function above my feeling function since i feel triggered about to be "more appropriate" or more "ethical", and about the typing english is not my first language so there might be some mistakes :) but thank so much!
@@evenwithme_1753 No problem! I do hope that my words were helpful. Also I am surprised to hear that English is not your first language. I thought you did a great job.
well i am a consume sleep type and you can see the problem that its only 25 % in both ENTPs and INFJs so its still hard to conclude which one am I? what to do?
Mmm. Good question. If you are still struggling, I would say look to where you get very stubborn. Where do you lock up and say "I refuse to do this" even if you eventually come around. The automatic negativity is often a strong sign of the fourth/inferior function. For me and my Si, this is looks like getting very irritated when asked to organize concrete reality. I hate when I am expected to tidy up my room, do my laundry, taxes, dishes, cook meals, etc. I go in fight mode. It feels as if this stuff slows down the Ne and its need for more abstract possibilities. For an INFJ with lower Se, they will become more irritated by the idea of taking in new sensory data. If someone encourages them to 'get out there and have new experiences' or 'learn something that isn't already inside of your comfort zone' they may get argumentative or resistant. It feels as if they've been working on this Lego tower, and someone is asking them to break it all apart and start building with new blocks. As CS or SC you will maybe relate to each to some degree, but where is the bigger challenge at? It may also help to ask friends and family to see where they your stumbling points are.
AutoAlchemy the 16personalities test online but I have done some research online and I seem to behave like one. However I am described as a trickster and goofy by family and close friends who know I am “smart” on the inside (similar to entp). But I plan ahead in to the future and I am really efficient when I set my eyes on a goal therefore I appear cold and aloof to people who interrupt me while working.
What are some questions i can ask myself in the moment to know what functions im using??? I wanna type myself but i feel like even when im hyper aware of how im acting idk how to interpret what any of it means...
It can be hard to determine this sort of thing by asking yourself straightforward questions, especially because it's so easy to take a single data point and interpret it any number of ways. What might be best is turning on a camera and letting yourself ramble for a bit on random questions/topics, maybe some Would You Rather questions from the internet if you need help getting started. Sleep on it for a few days and then watch the footage back, pretending that you're a third party observer. If you do that, reply here and let me know, and then I can tell you what sorts of things to look for to make sense of your type. :) (Trying not to bias you right away by telling you first. Lol.)
@@love4eva683 Awesome! So glad you found some time to do this. :) My answer to your question turned into a short novel. Lol. It's too long for RUclips, but you can read my reply in this Google doc: docs.google.com/document/d/1a27meH9OnSWyEZ45f53pxuteR4FF3rNCrz1VgbO_REY/edit?usp=sharing Happy reading!
You remind me so much of an INTP friend. He stims a lot too similar to you his eye movement is not as frequent as mine I'm ENTP w/ Ne dominance. Interesting...
Probably like everyone that wants to type themselves objectively, I feel confused even after watching this video, because i feel like I'm having the problems of both sides (But i guess ENTP more, because of that need to be validated and overly sensitive to criticism). After taking 16pers. test i first typed as INFJ, then i started researching and found great channels like CPT, OP (and definitely AutoAlchemy lol
Really good write-up! Thank you for sharing some of your experiences. I agree that it can be difficult to tell where your true problem is because we all can suffer in various areas depending on our chapter of life. I think the best concept to look at from OPS is the savior state versus demon state concept. You want to think about situations that are more than mere 'problems.' I'm talking situations that trigger you to the point that you lose sight of yourself, situations that make you ask 'Wow, what came over me?' This really requires an honest look at yourself. In those situations, is there a pattern of particular things that set you off... Did someone ask you to be more appropriate or more ethical? If this is triggering, there's a good chance you have Feeling as a demon function. Someone sees a void in you, and you feel 'stuck' there, like you either can't grow or don't need to grow or don't want to. Rationalizations may ensue. Lol. For demon thinking... Maybe you've often been triggered by the insinuation that you're overly emotional, sensitive, sentimental, and perhaps just too stupid figure things out or think clearly. Demon sensing might be hurt by something like: 'Be sensible here. You're acting unhinged and ungrounded. Get your head out of the clouds. Be realistic.' (This is me, majorly... Anything that asks that I actually attend to details and leave La La Land behind infuriates me. LOL.) Demon intuition might be deeply triggered by the implication that they are dull, literal, mundane, commonplace, and unable to see the bigger picture... Think about how those same situations would be like water off a duck's back for someone with the opposite typology. If someone tells me I'm dull, I might be like 'lulz what' and maybe a little hurt for like 5 minutes, but then I'm going to get back to regularly scheduled programming and create a typology rap or some other creative project that is a little 'out there.' You can apply that same process to the human needs and animals from OPS to fully zero in on your type. For what it's worth, I think I am seeing double-deciding in you -- meaning your Thinking and Feeling functions are in the middle of your stack. I also think that your introverted decider is more likely the savior (either Ti or Fi). Good luck!
@@AutoAlchemy Oh, you actually replied lol :D. Thank you very much. Sorry for me not being able to respond quickly, I thought I should do a little bit more research and then reply here so I can explain myself better. So firstly, for the demon function, (usually) the friends I met at my university which then become close friends tell me two main things actually. First one is “ Seçkin we have been friends for like a year, 2 years 3 years, but even though we did many things, I still feel like you have this invisible curtain and I think you want to spend time with me but something is not right or you don’t feel a 100% belonging to a place” (They don’t really say it this dramatic lol). And the second one is that I’m hyper-aware of my negative aspects which can not be seen at first sight and according to them, I am mostly right about those aspects. After thinking about these thoughts (which I already knew lol), I came upon the a video of OP and then watched the 3 videos CPT to determine my personality type. After watching those videos this time, I basically resonated with the functions of INFP and ENTP. I now know that I 100% have Ne over Ni , (so INFJ is not an option anymore). And although, for the most of the problems I resonated with INFP, having gone to university and having a more socially better and free environment, I feel like these problems are decreasing rapidly. And I know that I think that I don't need to be an INFP to not feel like I belong to a particular place, group, etc. Therefore, I don’t know if this is possible, but for the cognitive functions I feel like an ENTP who was suppressed. Or who knows, maybe I'm actually an INFP who just wants to be an ENTP :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Your reply actually helped me a lot on reconsider what my problems were and what people were saying about those problems. And even though these two comments of mine has little info about me, It would be nice to hear an outer perspective to guess my personality type.
Hey Jeffery! Well done, clear comparison! Dave and Shan have a hilarious new video about lead Ni and it's attempts of avoiding anything negative in future without actual experience. 😂 My two cents from experience that might be helpful for others to find out whether they are lead Ne or Ni: Find a person who's more sure of their type as lead Ne. If you wonder why the person is not going in depth in a topic to the core and is moving from one concept to another, or having difficulty keeping up with them, or even annoyed they are doing that then lead Ne you are not lol. Edit: I found an interesting John Beebe interview. He's an Ne lead. He has his own take about the types, though what's more valuable in the interview is his experiences with Ne and Si, and how he found a healthier dynamic between them. ruclips.net/video/770FrOmZbuU/видео.html Best regards.
Hey Zeinab! Lol. Yes, that newest video of theirs is illuminating and hilarious both. As for your tip to help others determine their type... Brilliant! Yes. LOL. That should do it. 😀 Thanks for sharing the John Beebe video, btw! It's funny that you mention him. Yesterday, someone told me that I remind them of a young Beebe. 😅
Rarely funny? Lol. I constantly knock groups of people over holding their bellies. Not trying to be a diva but I can regularly command a room. ENTP out.
@@AutoAlchemy okay i understood now, no i just consumed and slept on all the info and realised i dont have to be the most energetic type out of all of them to be an entp, i dont want to live in lies telling myself im one type and try to grow that way, without acctually confirming, wich would be consistant with lead consume, never having enough info, but i always had problem with organization, even tho i kinda dont like the new sensory shit, i mean i am not never trying new shit but im not an Ne play dominant is wich i realised, when you compare Ne play blast dominant vs Ne consume sleep dominant, it looks like 2 different types, Ne lead play is gonna want to experience more than me who is a consume sleep dominant wich was the crucial puzzle piece i was missing since i tought i had Se 7th slot becouse of my low energy, even tho i realised i am not really bad at Se shit its just i dont like expending enegry
@@BigPapa64469 Yes, this is a solid way of framing things! The most energetic of the ENTPs will be the ones who are Sleep or Consume last. The only things all ENTPs will have in common are: the overriding preference for intuition, the need to keep options open, a resistance to detail / 'what's real,' and the Ti/Fe axis.
Still having a hard time concluding weither I'm ENTP or Satan.. It may be the same thing.
Will make a video on this soon 😏
ENTPs are not allowed into hell, since we would annoy the devil too much!

I'm an ENTP dating an INFJ after being bestfriends for 8 years.
Nice! I hope it works out and that you can build something on that lengthy friendship
It's great to see this common mistype finally getting some attention - great job my friend, very nicely presented comparison!
Also, cheers for the shout-out at the beginning!
Cheers, Harry! Thank you for the kind words. Not sure if I mentioned previously, but I've got your book in my Kindle app. You're next in the queue. 😈 Hope you're doing well, friend!
I really want to see just a basic overview of their system. There is so much piece-wise, i really would like a bulletted overview of it all
I'm working up to something like this, but unfortunately I know I will inject my own theories into it. Lol. Just gotta include a lot of caveats, I guess.
I’ve found this page (4 links for each letter pair) really useful. www.myersbriggs.org/my-mbti-personality-type/mbti-basics/
Then, if you’re able to narrow it down to a few, this site has some (sometimes eerily) thorough descriptions that help confirm/deny! www.personalitypage.com/html/portraits.html
You may study but first find what motivates you. You look at RUclips finding those tubers that stimulate your neurons and affects, it is an open adventure of discovery of frames of reference, patterns , and choosing along the way . Pursue your daily immediate interest and follow your interest. That is how I got into it, it will be a long and fun journey because you will see others differently , not only yourself, that is what it is for me. Happy New Year 2022
WOW you summed up demon Si vs Se SO WELL for me. When you said ENTP could have control imposed upon us from outside, I had a visceral body reaction remembering all the times that has been my experience because I refused to get more of my shit together. The Ni-Se/Ne-Si difference is SO KEY here. I had been typed as INFJ on 16 personalities for many years until OBS showed me I'm an ENTP. Which of course makes my life make so much more sense
I’ve always found the INFJ requirement for Quite vs the ENTP requirement for stimulation to be and effective decider. INFJs love quite, while ENTPs love a noisy environment.
what if I just don't care lmao
This reminds me of the Great Gatsby quote, "I like large parties. They're so intimate. At small parties you can't get any privacy," because I am an INFJ and expectedly not a fan of any party--I dislike the feeling that I HAVE TO be social--but in a bigger crowd I can just blend in, zone out,, and relax. For me, most noise can be made white noise.
I'm an ENTP, and noisy environments exhausts me. Especially if I'm going through something. It's just too many things to take in, because I can't filter it out. But having crazy discussions in small groups or one on one gives me a kick.
I guess I correctly typed myself as an ENTP thanks to this video, if only because of how I was like "wtf are jumpers" and then figured it out seconds later as I kept watching. P.S. you are attractive, charming, etc
Excellent explanation. Nothing in this video was hard to follow, even when you began talking about deeper particulars like OP coins. Your ability to use a storytelling format to tease apart and illuminate pathways of reason is what sets you apart and draws people in to seek answers here. Really beautiful alignment. You're so good
Hillary! This means so, so much to me. 💜 Storytelling has always felt like my strong suit, but it wasn't obvious early on that I could incorporate it as a tool for explaining in this way. I'm grateful that it's effective for you and others.
I was going to sleep but i just got this;
Fun Fact: you most probably wont see an ENTP go talk with their crush because.
ENTPs be like “Thoughts Before Thots”
nice video man. still I can't determine it because I'm stuck between these 2 types: Ne ti cs/b(p) & Ni ti sc/b(p)
I have heard that masculine Ne can come out as Ni and that makes me so confused. I also do these things:
1- I don't like chaos, but actually my room isn't organized.
2- I used to go to the gym for 2 years but lost interest.
3- I did so many things and lost interest, but I did them for a long period like at least a year.
4- I like to understand things deeply, and I spend so much time tryin to understand something I'm interested in.
5- I have a library of so many books in different fields and I only read like half of each book because of losing interest.
It's just so confusing u can't imagine.
Glad you liked the video, dude! As for your type... I can definitely see the conundrum. Those two types will be more alike than most people would think. A Play-last ENTP can leave people scratching their heads, because you're taking something that people consider to be essential to the type and chucking it into the corner. Lol. Of course, they're wrong. ;)
Basically, because you're stuck, it's time to introduce another couple of typing tools to your arsenal.
I normally try to take a personality type and break it down into as many binary 'coins' as possible. This includes 'temperament coins.' As a CP/B(S) ENTP, I prefer NT > SF and NF > ST, based on the functions attached to my top two animals. You'll notice that both of the types that you're stuck between favor NT > SF and ST above SF, so those coins won't seem particularly useful, but... Perhaps it would help to think about which 'temperament' you're NOT, since these two types will have different temperaments attached to their last animals. The ENTP will have the NF temperament at the very bottom, while the INFJ will have the SF temperament at the bottom. Which is least like you? Are you less of an NF 'hippie' with all of their talk of values at an abstract level, or do you feel most alienated from the 'SF' of what is valuable in the here and now of the real world?
Time for tool #2. I think you should film yourself rambling about whatever tickles your fancy. Then you're gonna watch that footage back while looking for the distinction between channel-changing and chapter-talking. Gonna copy and paste something that I wrote elsewhere that I think may help you...
Some people, while in a calm flow state, have a persistent practice of starting in one place and then bouncing over here, and then over there, and then over here again… These people are ‘changing the channel,’ so to speak. Rather than presenting others with already-processed information, the impression is almost as if they are uncovering their answers in real-time, allowing themselves to stray as they explore through their sentences. In extreme cases, other people may watch them and wonder, “What’s your point, exactly?”
On the other hand, chapter talking is more structured and pre-digested. It can carry you from A to B to C with purpose where channeling changing is happier to take many detours. In the worst of times, people may interact with a chapter talker and think, “When will you stop lecturing at me?”
Which side of this continuum are you closer to? If you’re a channel changer, chances are good that your observing function is extraverted. But if you’re a chapter talker, you’re likely favoring your introverted observer. Again, I want to reiterate the importance of the ‘flow state.’ Everyone can and will do everything at times. The channel changer can slow down and string ideas together sequentially. The chapter talker will derail themselves if they’ve neglected some important detail. You’re looking for which comes more easily. Which do you resist less?
For some points of reference, check out some interviews with Imogen Heap to see channel changing in action. Then see Sonia Sotomayor for a showcase of chapter talking.
Good luck!
@@AutoAlchemy thanks so much man. I guess it's more clear now, and I'm definitely goin to film myself as you said. that's a great idea. I really appreciate your time and your thoughts. you're awesome dude, thank you.
@@ahmadazab7853 No problem at all! Hope it helps.
Speaking from experience, if you are still not sure if you are an ENTP or not, even after consulting 50+ sources and taken more than ten tests and still you need to see more sources and more opinions to make up your mind. Then most likely you are an ENTP or not, who knows? might as well go to another Ne TI trip to find whether you are an ENTP or not.
I can certainly relate to this...
I feel like I am both INFJ and ENTP. When I was younger, my ENTPly traits were very obvious, I have no doubt I was purely ENTP by then. But familial issues and expectations bring me intense stress and anxiety, at least for a while. Then, it was as if I start to mature, and I turned very INFJly... I love the ENTP's inventing, creating and debating; I also love the INFJ's literacy, arts, complex thinking; I have both deep analysis of everything (Ni and Ti), and also deep care for others (Fe). But when I appear in various social situations, mostly at school, I am very keen on expressing myself, sharing my opinions and arguments and all the ideas in my head. I join a debating club and feel I really belong.
Recently I do a lot of research on MBTI, including the cognitive functions etc.. For me, it is as if my secondary and tertiary function, Fe and Ti are equal. I show a lot of Ni and sometimes Ne. As if my INFJly and ENTPly self blends together. I have a hypothesis that perhaps my personality shift might be due to major changes in my life...I question myself whether I am objective enough, and decide that I might have entered the Ni-Ti loop, so I come to ask you for some advice.
Thank you for your patience, if you are reading this line!
Ohmygosh, why do I see myself in this comment? this accurately desccribes me.
Im currently in this situation :D
Father.
It's the same with me! I'm an INFJ, but I feel like my Fe and Ti are almost equal, and my Ne is more developed than the typical INFJ. I have questioned many times whether I was an ENTP, but I relate to most INFJ descriptions more.
@_Hedura_ Thanks for sharing your opinion! 2 years after making the comment, and seeing this now, I could agree with you that the stereotypes of each MBTI type are not meaningful. Through MBTI I was trying to discovering my identity, but as time passes, I don't believe in the need to really "fit" into any MBTI type anymore, nor think that I am a certain type; the categorisation doesn't tell a lot about who one is or what one's interests are.
Typology for entp is like a playground, who loves chaos yet no boundaries of exploring (atm) relate to it, imho
Whoa! The infographics are super cool! Nice video!
Thanks my dude! Hope you're well

Hey! I really appreciate you making this video. Had to edit this comment because I was wrong. I'm most likely ENTP. That's where I land at least. :)
ITS A LONG COMMENT, AT LEAST SEE MY LAST PARAGRAPH !!!! 👇👇👇
It’s actually funny cause I’m an infj and by big bro is entp and we were both really chocked to see that people have difficulties making difference between the two types... I mean, there almost opposite, just looking at the letters (only the N in common) but also when ya look at the fonctions, my weakness is his strength lol
To be honest I don’t think someone who wonders that could be neither of those two personalities (since were both outcasts of society, we instantly felt the feeling of someone getting us when we read our descriptions).
But I still wanna try to help out those who are still confused at the end of this vid (personally, I really didn’t get the contrast thing😅)... so!
Infj spend most of their time observing people, they LOVE to get how the human brain work, personality traits, people’s flaws/qualities, etc. We also do a lot of “existential anxiety”, which basically means that we stress a lot about “the real world, outside of our own abstract brain”. It makes it difficult, sometimes, to put ourselves out there as we truly are, so some of us (the unhealthy one) decide to back down to the défense mechanism of pretending to have an entirely different personality (since they get people so good, it’s easy for infj’s to imitate other types, which is dangerous because they can end up forgetting who the truly are). Finally, infj are really compassionate (do we write it like that?), warm hearted people, who crave at helping others, they just can’t help themselves, it hurts them to see someone hurt (and when I say “hurts them”, it’s really not metaphorical).
Now the entp isn’t the devil, and I know it for a fact because my brothers an entp and despite his flaws, he’s a very open minded guy.
Entp’s are rationate people, the LIVE for debates and new ideas. An entp brain is always on movement, thinking about new ideas, theories, ways to see life RATIONALLY/Logically. It doesn’t mean they’re robots, it just means that they don’t consider feelings as an important part of a debate, which is opposed to the way infjs see life. A really easy way to spot an entp/know if you’re one would be that, since they are extraverted, they tend/need to process most of all the ideas they have by brainstorming it all in the face of someone. In other words, they need to talk to others about their train of thoughts to “select” the logical/good ideas from the unlogical one. See, the two strongest fonctions of an entp are, 1. Having ideas (a lot about various subjects) and 2. Filter those ideas threw logic. So they often will talk a lot about weird subjects randomly to people (such as conspiracy theories or philosophical thoughts) because it helps them select the logical (“good”) ideas from the unlogical (“bad”) ones. But see, they in fact don’t give a fuck about the truth, the “answer”, like infj’s and intj’s do, they really just want to explore all the most logical possibilities! Which makes them very open minded people, because they are open to all kinds of ideas, as long as they find them interesting. Moreover, most of them do not consider themselves neither right winged nor left-winged (to stay open to all pov), they do anyway value a lot independance, liberty and anarchism. While infj’s way to perceive an good working society would be an equal, ethical one, entp would prefer no society at all, since society&governments represent control, which is opposed to liberty.
Btw, if yur an infj, you at least tried to read all of this text, while if yur entp, ya probably scrolled to another comment or, in the best scenario, skipped to the end, because yur too fuckin lazy 😂😂😂
Just to say, there is obviously more things to say about both types, I really just concentrated myself on the strongest, most obvious strength and qualities both types have, but this should be enough to know if yur entp, infj or neither of them (which is really possible)
Skipped parts, but interesting comparison, thanks!
Holy Shit! I've been wathing soooo many videos about ENTP vs INFJ and it just seems like people that actually make videos about those topis lack practical knowlege. You just blew my mind, honestly! I'm an ENTP female (At least I think so) and always doubting if I'm actually one (classic lol), but this text you wrote is so goddam hella good, Malek!
I believe that saying "DUH ENTPS WON'T EVEN BOTHER READING SUCH TEXT" is kinda stupid, honestlly. We are intellectual beings who enjoy some reading as well!! (as long as the topic is interesting for us).
Anyway, I just wanna say thank you for commenting your hella long text xD you just helped me figure it out! I'm just like that, I CRAVE debating my ideas and concepts. I even overload ppl doing it. This process helps me a lot with releasing anxiety and overthinking. I feel trapped when I can't experience new ideas, I usually enjoy living them but reading and watching videos about topics of my interest usually seal the deal as well, but I crave debating them and stop the crazy gathering at times.
I don't actually have strong values so it's crazy hard for me to make decisions.
Furthermore, my biggest fear is to feel that I am in a situation which I have no power of decision making. Also, the thing is (I think) : we're already born BEYOND good and evil. We are not discussing if something is right or wrong. In the other hand, ENTPs see the big picture and the outcome it all will bring, therefore our thoughts flow more like nature's cycles: nothing personal, it's just in the name of growth and improvement! :)
That's why we admire so much INFJ's, I guess? They bring more love to our raw/logic perspectives, balancing our bluntness and bringing more warmth to our ice cold hearts. At least that's what the INFJ I had a thing did to me.He brought a warmful and kind/meaningful perspective to my cold and nihilist/scheptical database lol, also he was so damn private about his true self that I felt enchanted and willing to experience him little by little, keeping the novelty ans wonder.
Thanks A LOT Malek! Stay awesome
Thanks it’s super kind of you to give your own perception from the other side! reading my comment now, there would be some improvements to be made in my overall analysis, but I’m so happy that I could give you the satisfaction of detaining an information that makes everything hold together. I liked your example with the infj guy you know, because I really think that the best you can get in a relationship is your opposite. I’m myself looking forward to meet some Xstp someday😉 you do seem like an entp-A by reading your comment, or if not then an entj-T. They do say infj’s are very private, and I am too, but I still don’t understand why😅happy to see some people like that cause it’s actually a part of myself that I’m trying to change..!
Great video, good job 🥰 I wish more people knew about your channel, it's sooo underrated
Thank you! That means a lot. 🙂 We'll get there eventually. Gotta keep chasing the horizon.
Great video. I also like all the graphics.
THE INTRO i giggled so hard
Thanks xD It is a bit silly
Please also do an ENTP vs ENFP.
I’m confused because when i do the test I always get f and t within 2% i’ve took the test in many websites. For Example
Like 49% feeling and 51% Thinking. And sometimes the other way around.
I can try! In some ways, those two types can be even harder to distinguish, so I'll really have to meditate on this one. 🤔
Well done, sir! Thank you!
Hope it helped!
I think self-awareness and/or lack thereof might confuse these two types. I am INFJ, but I certainly don't feel as "radiant" as my ENTP friends seem to suggest I am. I could understand being one and thinking perhaps I was the other.
Oh yeah. That helped a lot. I felt a little panic as he described that search for newness/chaos. I like things orderly and when it's not I find a way to make it at least feel like it is.
Well I'm definitely PBCS while my boyfriend seems to be NiTi/SCPB, at least Sleep over Play. Aside from that we're VERY similar in many ways. So this would make me NeFe = ENTP according to this model. But seeing all the stereotypes (the trolling and the God-complex) I have a very hard time believing it, yet nothing else quite fits the same. EDIT: You're actually one of the seemingly rare balanced ENTPs out there who I have more in common with in the way of expressing myself.
Thanks for sharing your reflections! Yes, that's a huge issue with the stereotypes. One reason I enjoy this particular model is that it challenges stereotypes by being so expansive but it also acknowledges that these preference sets we have are all potentially unstable and pendulum-like. There will be swings, particularly if you avoid the other side of a binary. This is way more in alignment with Jung's original thoughts on type. Type is supposed to be a starting point. He said something along the lines that anyone who overly identified with a type might as well be identified with a corpse. 😅 Something to think about.
@@AutoAlchemy Ha! I like that actually, but I'm still confused none the less. :P
I heard that ENTP and INTJ are like fraternal twins. 🙂
Makes sense! I used to type as an INTJ until I started seeing my blindspots more clearly
LOL. The ENTPs and INTJs I know are almost all intellectual "enemies" (i.e, opposing politics). ENTPs and INFJs are match made in heaven though. ENTPs are the more spontaneous, adventurous INFJs. And INFJs are the more structured and somber ENTPs. Both are empathetic thinkers (Fe-Ti users).
@@savagebuck most entps prefer Intjs and vice versa
heyy Jeffrey i have a question about being an INFJ or an ENTP i don't know if im an extrovert or an introvert or a feeler and a thinker how do i know that?
because when i was younger i was the kind of girl who most of the time was playing alone and i struggle a little bit to try new experiences also i was kind of organized, even tho i was never the type of girl who was in the back of the class reading a book and doing that kind of stuff??
i rather go to speak with my classmates or friends and make people laugh that was kind of my "hobby" i was super friendly and social but never wanted to have a deeper connection with this people since it makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable or weird but at the same time i wanted to be accepted and be their "friends" and get invited to their birthdays but somehow i didn't consider them like my "friends" its kind of confusing.
also i never felt that drained feeling after being in a large group of people instead i feel more dynamic than when i spent time with myself, when i im not in a group of people i usually feel depressed or sad with no motivation in life lol
also people have called me a "reserved person" but i don't see myself like that, i can talk to people and share with them my "stuff" but is hard for me to talk about my feelings i don't know why...
the other thing is that people would say that i like following routines or having things planned but thats more of a trait of INFJ's, but my mom would say to me that im kind of spontaneous for example i wanted to play the cello but i only played it for one year (i got bored...) the same happens with playing the piano i would get distracted super easily because i would switch songs every 3 days and i never got the chance to finish one simply song, i feel more like a P rather than a J.
the other thing is that people see me as a very calm person and the others will say that im a super energetic girl and sometimes they would called me "chaotic energy" but is not always the same... its hard for me to show my real me (i feel more like the energetic girl...)
Another thing is that my mom would always remind me that im kind of an analytical but super creative at the same time i don't know if that means something?
the thing is that im having a reallyyy hard time knowing who actually i am because all of these years i have built my own identity by how other people see myself and its hella confusing
Hello! :) Thanks for reaching out with this fascinating self-analysis. It can be tough to interpret stuff like this virtually without seeing the 'state' your in when you're sharing with me.
That being said, I want to start off with a tip for determining F versus T.
I personally think that your weakest functions align with your triggers. Think about situations that trigger you to the point that you lose sight of yourself and that make you ask 'Wow, what came over me?'
Is there a pattern of particular things that set you off... Did someone ask you to be 'more appropriate' or more 'ethical?' If this is triggering, there's a good chance you have your Thinking function above your Feeling function. On the other hand, Feelers will be triggered when they feel people are sending the message that they are unintelligent, unable to solve and troubleshoot problems.
It's basically about where you feel 'stuck' -- the places where you feel like you either can't grow or don't need to grow or don't want to.
Besides that, I would say you seem a bit more on the extraverted side based on everything you said.
You should look more into the idea of 'jumpers' in the Objective Personality System. There's a chance you could be one and this is causing some of your difficulty in typing. :)
@@AutoAlchemy thank you! i think i have the thinking function above my feeling function since i feel triggered about to be "more appropriate" or more "ethical", and about the typing english is not my first language so there might be some mistakes :) but thank so much!
@@evenwithme_1753 No problem! I do hope that my words were helpful. Also I am surprised to hear that English is not your first language. I thought you did a great job.
@@AutoAlchemy thank you! :)
now can anyone tell me out of Ne and Ni which one consumes more actively and which one consumes more passively?
@@BloxArc hahaha nice name
Fukken GOLD!
well i am a consume sleep type and you can see the problem that its only 25 % in both ENTPs and INFJs so its still hard to conclude which one am I? what to do?
Mmm. Good question. If you are still struggling, I would say look to where you get very stubborn. Where do you lock up and say "I refuse to do this" even if you eventually come around. The automatic negativity is often a strong sign of the fourth/inferior function.
For me and my Si, this is looks like getting very irritated when asked to organize concrete reality. I hate when I am expected to tidy up my room, do my laundry, taxes, dishes, cook meals, etc. I go in fight mode. It feels as if this stuff slows down the Ne and its need for more abstract possibilities.
For an INFJ with lower Se, they will become more irritated by the idea of taking in new sensory data. If someone encourages them to 'get out there and have new experiences' or 'learn something that isn't already inside of your comfort zone' they may get argumentative or resistant. It feels as if they've been working on this Lego tower, and someone is asking them to break it all apart and start building with new blocks.
As CS or SC you will maybe relate to each to some degree, but where is the bigger challenge at? It may also help to ask friends and family to see where they your stumbling points are.
@@AutoAlchemy yeah you are absolutely right. That concludes this I am an INFJ thanks man.
I have the issue of telling the intp and entp. Question is, how can you tell the differences?
I got typed as an INTJ but I’m not sure whether I’m an ENTP or not. Maybe I have strong shadow functions?
Where did the INTJ result come from?
AutoAlchemy the 16personalities test online but I have done some research online and I seem to behave like one. However I am described as a trickster and goofy by family and close friends who know I am “smart” on the inside (similar to entp). But I plan ahead in to the future and I am really efficient when I set my eyes on a goal therefore I appear cold and aloof to people who interrupt me while working.
Ommg wtf someone who is actually accurately comparing these two types... does this explain obvious compatibility too?
What are some questions i can ask myself in the moment to know what functions im using??? I wanna type myself but i feel like even when im hyper aware of how im acting idk how to interpret what any of it means...
It can be hard to determine this sort of thing by asking yourself straightforward questions, especially because it's so easy to take a single data point and interpret it any number of ways. What might be best is turning on a camera and letting yourself ramble for a bit on random questions/topics, maybe some Would You Rather questions from the internet if you need help getting started. Sleep on it for a few days and then watch the footage back, pretending that you're a third party observer. If you do that, reply here and let me know, and then I can tell you what sorts of things to look for to make sense of your type. :) (Trying not to bias you right away by telling you first. Lol.)
@@AutoAlchemy After 3 long weeks I finally had time to sit down and answer questions!! What type of things should I look out for?

What ENTP wants to be Tony Starc? I want to be Deadpool!
I’ve totally had this same issue.
You remind me so much of an INTP friend. He stims a lot too similar to you his eye movement is not as frequent as mine I'm ENTP w/ Ne dominance. Interesting...
Probably like everyone that wants to type themselves objectively, I feel confused even after watching this video, because i feel like I'm having the problems of both sides (But i guess ENTP more, because of that need to be validated and overly sensitive to criticism). After taking 16pers. test i first typed as INFJ, then i started researching and found great channels like CPT, OP (and definitely AutoAlchemy lol
Really good write-up! Thank you for sharing some of your experiences. I agree that it can be difficult to tell where your true problem is because we all can suffer in various areas depending on our chapter of life.
I think the best concept to look at from OPS is the savior state versus demon state concept. You want to think about situations that are more than mere 'problems.' I'm talking situations that trigger you to the point that you lose sight of yourself, situations that make you ask 'Wow, what came over me?'
This really requires an honest look at yourself.
In those situations, is there a pattern of particular things that set you off... Did someone ask you to be more appropriate or more ethical? If this is triggering, there's a good chance you have Feeling as a demon function. Someone sees a void in you, and you feel 'stuck' there, like you either can't grow or don't need to grow or don't want to. Rationalizations may ensue. Lol.
For demon thinking... Maybe you've often been triggered by the insinuation that you're overly emotional, sensitive, sentimental, and perhaps just too stupid figure things out or think clearly.
Demon sensing might be hurt by something like: 'Be sensible here. You're acting unhinged and ungrounded. Get your head out of the clouds. Be realistic.' (This is me, majorly... Anything that asks that I actually attend to details and leave La La Land behind infuriates me. LOL.)
Demon intuition might be deeply triggered by the implication that they are dull, literal, mundane, commonplace, and unable to see the bigger picture...
Think about how those same situations would be like water off a duck's back for someone with the opposite typology. If someone tells me I'm dull, I might be like 'lulz what' and maybe a little hurt for like 5 minutes, but then I'm going to get back to regularly scheduled programming and create a typology rap or some other creative project that is a little 'out there.'
You can apply that same process to the human needs and animals from OPS to fully zero in on your type.
For what it's worth, I think I am seeing double-deciding in you -- meaning your Thinking and Feeling functions are in the middle of your stack. I also think that your introverted decider is more likely the savior (either Ti or Fi).
Good luck!
@@AutoAlchemy Oh, you actually replied lol :D. Thank you very much. Sorry for me not being able to respond quickly, I thought I should do a little bit more research and then reply here so I can explain myself better.
So firstly, for the demon function, (usually) the friends I met at my university which then become close friends tell me two main things actually. First one is “ Seçkin we have been friends for like a year, 2 years 3 years, but even though we did many things, I still feel like you have this invisible curtain and I think you want to spend time with me but something is not right or you don’t feel a 100% belonging to a place” (They don’t really say it this dramatic lol). And the second one is that I’m hyper-aware of my negative aspects which can not be seen at first sight and according to them, I am mostly right about those aspects. After thinking about these thoughts (which I already knew lol), I came upon the a video of OP and then watched the 3 videos CPT to determine my personality type.
After watching those videos this time, I basically resonated with the functions of INFP and ENTP. I now know that I 100% have Ne over Ni , (so INFJ is not an option anymore). And although, for the most of the problems I resonated with INFP, having gone to university and having a more socially better and free environment, I feel like these problems are decreasing rapidly. And I know that I think that I don't need to be an INFP to not feel like I belong to a particular place, group, etc. Therefore, I don’t know if this is possible, but for the cognitive functions I feel like an ENTP who was suppressed. Or who knows, maybe I'm actually an INFP who just wants to be an ENTP :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Your reply actually helped me a lot on reconsider what my problems were and what people were saying about those problems. And even though these two comments of mine has little info about me, It would be nice to hear an outer perspective to guess my personality type.
Hey what kinda camera do you use? It’s got good image it seems
:D It's the camera on my Galaxy S9.
AutoAlchemy no way! :o when I used to record on my iPhone it looked like I was filming with a potato 🥔

Hey Jeffery!
Well done, clear comparison! Dave and Shan have a hilarious new video about lead Ni and it's attempts of avoiding anything negative in future without actual experience. 😂
My two cents from experience that might be helpful for others to find out whether they are lead Ne or Ni: Find a person who's more sure of their type as lead Ne. If you wonder why the person is not going in depth in a topic to the core and is moving from one concept to another, or having difficulty keeping up with them, or even annoyed they are doing that then lead Ne you are not lol.
Edit: I found an interesting John Beebe interview. He's an Ne lead. He has his own take about the types, though what's more valuable in the interview is his experiences with Ne and Si, and how he found a healthier dynamic between them.

Best regards.
Hey Zeinab! Lol. Yes, that newest video of theirs is illuminating and hilarious both. As for your tip to help others determine their type... Brilliant! Yes. LOL. That should do it. 😀 Thanks for sharing the John Beebe video, btw! It's funny that you mention him. Yesterday, someone told me that I remind them of a young Beebe. 😅
Elvis?
Thank you. Thank you very much.
Rarely funny? Lol. I constantly knock groups of people over holding their bellies. Not trying to be a diva but I can regularly command a room. ENTP out.
Teach me your ways
wow thanks i didnt understand anything :(
Do you have any specific questions? I can try to answer when I have some free time
@@AutoAlchemy okay i understood now, no i just consumed and slept on all the info and realised i dont have to be the most energetic type out of all of them to be an entp, i dont want to live in lies telling myself im one type and try to grow that way, without acctually confirming, wich would be consistant with lead consume, never having enough info, but i always had problem with organization, even tho i kinda dont like the new sensory shit, i mean i am not never trying new shit but im not an Ne play dominant is wich i realised, when you compare Ne play blast dominant vs Ne consume sleep dominant, it looks like 2 different types, Ne lead play is gonna want to experience more than me who is a consume sleep dominant wich was the crucial puzzle piece i was missing since i tought i had Se 7th slot becouse of my low energy, even tho i realised i am not really bad at Se shit its just i dont like expending enegry
@@BigPapa64469 Yes, this is a solid way of framing things! The most energetic of the ENTPs will be the ones who are Sleep or Consume last. The only things all ENTPs will have in common are: the overriding preference for intuition, the need to keep options open, a resistance to detail / 'what's real,' and the Ti/Fe axis.
Can you be both?
