Outside the box, jump out of the box to see the world
Today, let ’s talk about the INFP type in the MBTI 16 personality
If you are INFP
Then your energy is mainly driven by inner thoughts
Ability to focus on the inner world and ignore outside disturbances
You are not interested in what the senses perceive
Inspiration, opportunity and possibility
Little interest in the present itself, living in the future
You value emotions, usually based on personal emotional values ​​to make decisions
At the same time you are perceptual and like to explore and keep open
Do n’t make a decision when you can, unless you have to
You are willing to accept and tolerate the uncertainty in life
Open and curious
Your unique combination of four dimensions gives you a super emotional experience
Your N-type intuition makes you pay more attention to concepts and abstract information when observing the world
More sensitive to information after the five senses of reality
At the same time, you also tend to interpret this information in an emotional way
Have a strong personal subjective color
Plus your perceived preferences
You will not reject the sudden emotions produced by the subjective color interpretation
Nor does it belong to or explain this emotion
But accept this uncertain emotion and feel it slowly
INFP often has a "sudden self" feeling
When I quietly experience emotions, I seem to have changed
Plus the tendency to point inward
The inner world, not the outer world, is your stage of energy flow
The combination of these factors makes the emotional experience of the INFP type extremely profound
However, compared to positive emotions such as happiness and satisfaction
Human experience of negative emotions, such as pain and depression
Will naturally become deeper and longer lasting
This is probably from the genes of human alertness and danger formed in the era of hunting
So when INFP experiences and accepts emotions
Pain and doubt often dominate
Correspondingly, INFP will more naturally ask such philosophical propositions as the meaning of life
Due to an open mind
For these philosophical propositions, INFP never thinks they have found the answer
This is very different from the NFJ type
INFP will continue to ask questions
There is an interesting talk, "If other types of philosophy are interesting, INFP learns philosophy to live."
Another characteristic of INFP is perfectionism
Although perfectionism is a feature common to many types
But INFP's perfectionism is full of romanticism of idealism
INFP often has an ideal world
This is the result of their repeated construction from abstract emotional experience
This ideal world became their benchmark for measuring the real world
INFP's perfectionism is often reflected in the flawless pursuit of spiritual level or moral character
This pursuit is often accompanied by disappointment with the real world
INFP often turns emotional sustenance to nature
A considerable part of INFP will be attracted to yoga or vegetarianism
At the same time, this pursuit is romantic
INFPs with rich emotional intentions often give this ideal world an imaginative aesthetic expression
This makes their perfectionism full of mysterious fantasy and ethereal colors
Zhuangzi's "Xiaoyaoyou" is the ultimate embodiment of this emotional tendency
Zhuangzi's pursuit of perfection for people is actually a question in the middle section of "Xiaoyaoyou"
Another important feature of INFP is its rich imagination
INFP is the most abundant type in the inner world of the 16 personality
INFP can do nothing, dream for hours in a row
Indulge and be satisfied
The performance of INFP addiction fantasy is very similar to INTP addiction thinking
INFP loves literature, especially tragic literature
In literary form, INFP prefers poetry, drama, novels
This emotionally rich and more open carrier
And general interest in biography and documentary literature
We have also introduced the four introverted intuitions, the IN type.
These four types have stubborn perseverance in their pursuit of
INTJ pursues ultimate methodology
INTP pursues the ultimate order
INFJ pursues ultimate care
And what INFP pursues is ultimate morality
As with other types, the opposite of INFP characteristics is the problems they may encounter
INFP's high sensitivity and open handling of emotions
Makes the INFP almost forced to chew the endless emotions repeatedly
If you feel hurt, INFP often protects your body in a slightly depressed way
And INFP has an attitude of experiencing depression
Thus falling into a chronic chronic depression
INFP's perfectionist complex leads them to be too harsh on themselves
Even to the point of lack of trust
INFP hopes to be very good in all aspects
This harsh evaluation system makes INFP more prone to inferiority complex
At the same time, as we introduced earlier
INFP has a deeper emotional experience of shame
Easily influenced by evaluations from others
However, INFP is very honest about this emotion
This is often the cute side of INFP
In addition, the life of INFP is very casual and flexible, and it is easy to indulge in self emotion
In China where most managers are SJ type
INFP's situation in the workplace may be more difficult
From experience and tradition, career development is indeed the biggest obstacle facing INFP
An emotional meaning that satisfies INFP
And can use their erratic creativity
It is also difficult to find a post that can avoid daily repetitive work in the division of labor.
However, the rich expression of INFP has the possibility of rapid spread in the open network environment today
The Internet also provides the possible nature of setting up small organizations, allowing INFP to tailor their career paths
