Hey Dan here. Someone recently told me that it is crazy I don't do more filming
while I am out traveling and about I know there are a lot of people online who
let's say a pose about an amazing lifestyle and such and I tend to do the opposite.
Actually, Natasha will bug me because I've been on this trip for a week so far
and I haven't posted anything to Instagram
despite as you can see some pretty amazing scenery going on here and so
thought I would film this video both for that reason and just because it popped
into my head and something I thought very worthy of discussing which is about
personality type and judging people maybe too early based on their type. I
read a comment on the channel recently about essentially: Hey I am NOT going to
be friends with in INTJ again because I was once and they it wasn't good they
were bad blah blah blah therefore I'll never do that again
and that's not good. That's not how you should think about personality type at
all. I've recently been spending extra time with two different ENTPs that I've
known for quite a long time but spending a prolonged period with them now and
another very good friend of mine is an ENTP so here we are three ENTPs I all
know very well and I can tell you they are almost as different as they are
alike. There are definitely some similarities in terms of how they think
they all generally love to debate but there's a lot of differences and let me
give you one of them one of my ENTP friends I would say quite argumentative
and very okay standing his ground so if he orders say a drink out somewhere and
they don't make it right he'll happily say hey this isn't how I wanted it, I'd
I'd like you to remake it. On the other hand a different ENTP friend of mine is
the opposite - he will never complain, he's super laid-back guy and all that right
and and the third ENTP is probably somewhere in the middle so there's a lot
of differences that can happen within a personality type you can be more caring
maybe more let's say your values can be quite
different right so one of the ENTPs that's close to me really cares about
animals that's his soft spot right I could see
probably at some point in his life actually working in that area and that's
not an ENTP trait to really care about animals and and wanna help necessarily
but it is for him in particular so before jumping to conclusions about
someone I definitely recommend getting to know them a bit better beyond their
personality type things like our morals, our values, how we're raised, different
events that have occurred in their life can have a massive impact on us beyond
our type. Now type can be a great way to learn how to communicate to people, to
get to know someone quicker to understand them, but personally I try not
to think of it right off the bat. Actually sometimes with friends of mine
people I meet I won't get into their personality type for weeks or even in
some cases years into knowing them and and make an effort to know them more on
the individual basis rather than really focusing on their type which for better
or worse can distort things sometimes someone will be a type that you tend to
get along with well and so or you've been told maybe on my channel you saw
the ENFP INTJ video and you assume hey this is this is an INTJ therefore we're
meant to be best friends and work together and maybe they're really evil
and you shouldn't be doing that and so in either case whether it's thinking
really positive of a type or negative off the bat I definitely recommend
getting to know the person a bit first and and then maybe getting to type and
that will give you I think the best odds of really getting to know someone well
without maybe misclassifying them early on and missing out on an opportunity or
getting into a dangerous situation because you assume really good things
based on someone's type without actually getting to know them first. Thanks for
