What kind of experience is it to be INFP?
P and J:P is always lazy. If he is in a bad mood, he will resign. J always has a lot of plans, but he can't wait to act.
Wake up naturally: INFP always thinks too much based on Fi+Ne, mostly because of insomnia. Even after staying up late, INFJ seems to wake up on time. On the other hand, the excellent biological clock also shows that INFJ's ability to deal with emotions is very first-class, and he is worthy of being a psychological tutor. INFP's ability to control emotions is very fragile, and emotions often fluctuate and capricious.
Isolation and loneliness: INFP feels lonely because it is isolated, so it is troubled by this feeling, and it has an inferiority complex to avoid problems and is forced to stay away from the crowd. INFJ chooses loneliness, keeps a distance from others, and is usually carefree. So INFP has avoidant personality, while INFJ is a personality (not a personality).
Introversion and extroversion: INFP, which is dominated by fi, does not show their inner feelings actively, and "retaining strength" is their motto. INFP is also a difficult type to understand, on the one hand, because of the complexity of the inner emotional world, on the other hand, they are not good at words. Fe-assisted INFJ will be relatively exposed. It is easy for people to know what they are doing, how they feel, whether they like it or not, and it is also easy to understand their own difficulties, provided that they are not closed-minded.
Vulnerable mode and invincible mode: INFP's criticism of persistent things is easily overwhelmed by external factors and becomes powerless, usually in a position of indefensible (without Fe support). INFJ firmly believes in what he believes, can face people's doubts fearlessly, can be reasonable (supported by Fe), and others can't easily change INFJ's intentions.
Implicit expression and direct implicit expression: INFP is very implicit in showing love, and likes to hide love in places that ordinary people can't notice, waiting for others to find it, so INFP is very good at preparing surprises and expressing love in a special and shy way, such as poetry, music and works of art, and INFJ is also implicit, but this implication is somewhat direct. For example, INFP especially likes to disguise itself with INFJ in hundreds of songs. After seeing through it, INFJ directly took INFP to KTV, ordered love and sang together ... but life and death refused to admit that it was a confession ... INFJ expressed love more accurately, but INFP was vague.
Defense and offense: When INFP likes a person, he will be shy and nervous when he meets his sweetheart, showing excessive concern for her, but he does not take the initiative and always hides first. When INFJ likes a person, he ignores the other person inexplicably, turns to be very enthusiastic about the people around you, says a lot to others, and is silent with you for a long time. In ordinary relationships, INFP is the most passive, INFJ is the most active, and it is often INFJ that brings them closer.
Procrastination and action: Influenced by fi, INFP likes heartbeat but dislikes action very much, that is, it likes control, psychological warfare and reliving that feeling. It never acts rashly, confesses or breaks the status quo, that is, it pays attention to the process rather than the result. INFJ likes action, well-planned, with clear goals, and it is painful for him not to take action. Unless INFJ is not sure whether this love is true or not, he will take action as long as it is time to make a move ... that is, he will pay attention to the result.
(There happens to be a psychological test on INF. INFJ likes direct ways of showing love, while INFP likes innovative and interesting ways of showing love. )
Meaning and ceremony: INFP believes that if a meaningful thing is unknown, it may not do so. INFJ will send birthday gifts to lovers who have broken up, but this gift will not be sent out, or write letters and poems to people you like but will not be sent out, or sent to places where it cannot be received.
Affirmation and doubt: Ni leads a god-like intuition and is always right. When looking at a problem, he always stops at it and gives an answer directly, but he can't give an explanation, and sometimes he jumps to conclusions. It is said that such people are most prone to telepathy. INFP, on the other hand, relies on intuition, but prefers to try many times to see if the result is like this, and then make statistical judgments and constantly correct the results, which can also explain why this result appears. Usually, the answer is hesitant and uncertain. So INFP likes to collect information, while INFJ likes to seek answers.
Intimacy and estrangement: Both of them are good at listening, but there are still differences in depth and breadth. INFP with delicate emotions is good at listening to people's voices and trying to understand the true feelings of others. INFP is not good at describing how much they understand your feelings, but will take some measures to tell you their similar experiences. They will not simply give you verbal comfort (gifts, surprises, etc.). Therefore, INFP is usually placed closest to the object of complaint. INFJ will listen as a planner and then express empathy (Fe). She will like to talk about her feelings and make others happy. At the same time, INFJ is very good at helping people "handle" good emotions and pointing out the road, reasons and so on for victims, instead of "healing the soul" like INFP, INFJ will give verbal comfort. INFJ likes to reserve a special place for the closest person and only tell this person "top secret things". Fei keeps her feelings in her heart, while Connie keeps her thoughts in her heart.
Judgment and perception: Fi is the judgment function and Ni is the perception function. As the main function of INFP, Fi makes them especially like to judge whether they like this person or hate this thing, and then choose whether to blend in. They will spend a lot of time reflecting on the emotional reactions caused by the reactions and behaviors of people who come into contact with them. INFP seems to be troubled by this compulsive judgment. ...
You, as the main function, make it impossible for people to pay attention to whether they like someone or something. INFJ first intuitively senses whether the other party is trustworthy or not, and then makes Philippine's judgment.
Stubborn and obedient: Ni's leaders trust their intuition too much, and sometimes they are very stubborn and ignore other people's opinions. Only when INFP's values are violated will it stubbornly resist. If it is friendly advice, they will listen. Relatively speaking, INFP is more inclined to obey. INFP's stubbornness is also reflected in Fi, especially for certain emotions, aesthetics, worship and self-belief. I dare say that Fi has a crush on the crown of marathon.
Cats and dogs: INFP likes cats and INFJ likes dogs. The reason is that cats can be lazy and have warm feedback, which is in line with INFP's lack of patience, casual life and dislike of planning. However, cats are as sensitive, withdrawn, lazy and cute as INFP, and birds of a feather flock together. Dogs need to be taken care of, but also have "harvest", and can be ordered everywhere, which is in line with the characteristics of INFJ's long-term breeding and scene control. They care about the growth of their children. Of course, I'm not saying that INFJ will never have a cat, and INFP will never have a dog. ...
Interests and goals: INFP focuses on its own interests. If you are not interested, you can't learn, and you always fail. If you are interested, you can play outside the textbook (that is, creativity). INFJ focuses on the possibility of achieving the goal, and can force learning, so it is a bully and an expert who is not careful. ...
Of course, topics beyond the content of the text will not ... (that is, J is not flexible enough)
Exposure and mystery: INFP is not ostentatious, but if given the opportunity, it will be very committed to expressing itself. If someone wants to know himself, as long as he is friendly, he will come to anyone. INFJ is a legendary mystic, and various literary and artistic means keep their mystery layer by layer. If you want to know her secret, you must occupy that "special position" first, so many people describe INFJ as wearing an elegant mask. Ne is extroverted thinking, and Ni is introverted thinking. In contrast, Ni doesn't like to express his ideas. Ne likes to exchange ideas, but it is a three-minute fever.
On the other hand, INFP is good at taking care of some "fools" when writing instructions and so on, so that everyone can understand and understand their ideas. Sometimes not. This is Ni's conservative side. INFJ's articles are often concise and perfect.
There is God without God: INFP is more likely to be an atheist, because they see through the psychological principle of why people produce God. They don't delude themselves into believing in Buddhism and God, which is usually related to philosophy. INFJ generally has its own beliefs. Based on its inverse function, it is more likely to be a theist, and they are usually attached to Buddhism.
Interestingly, many Buddhists are INFJ, such as Xu Yun and Xuanzang (refer to their documentaries and biographies), and indeed J can insist on abstinence. ...
However, strangely, although INFP has more philosophers, in fact INFJ is more philosophical than INFP.
Making friends and socializing: INFP has few friends, but once they do, they are deep friends. INFJ has more friends, but less heart-to-heart communication skills, which is the difference between the breadth and depth of Fe and Fi.
Walking and traveling: INFP is walking control and INFJ is travel control. INFP is eager to experience the outside world, but for its own reasons, it is always unable to take a step. As long as she wants, INFJ can insist on it alone, and nothing can stop her.
Casual elegance: INFP likes loose and easy-to-wear clothes. Although they also want to feel beautiful, they usually put convenience and comfort first, and men look sloppy and casual. In order to be beautiful, INFJ can be influenced by many complicated clothing techniques and even complicated retro hairstyles. It is said that women are very keen on changing pajamas. They think it has an atmosphere, so some INFJ women will appear dignified, elegant and artistic.
Limited imagination and infinite imagination: Ne's imagination is limited by E and needs some external materials as reference, so INFP's imagination is passive, usually inspired by something, conversation and scene, and some imagination looks subtle (especially in creativity), which makes it easy for people to understand its associative thinking. Ni's imagination is infinite, and her imagination is infinite, which is a dynamic skill. It can be used as long as it is in a daze, without stimulation and obscure. Normal people will feel that they can't understand how it came out, and they can't figure out INFJ's whimsy full of metaphors, but it often catches the hint core that others can't grasp.
Creation and innovation: imagination is higher than class differences. Spontaneous and creative imagination lives in the inner world of INFP, which is not limited by tradition. INFP's creative characteristics are novel, unique and from scratch, and what it creates must be unprecedented. INFJ is an innovator. He puts forward really radical and different solutions to guide the team, so INFJ often takes on too much.
Limited emotions and unlimited emotions: the model is the same as above.
Incomplete and perfect: both Fi and Ni are perfectionist functions, but the perfect performance is different. Fi shows emotional perfection, that is, harmony. In order to pursue this harmony, INFP can sometimes sacrifice everything, but at the same time it is very entangled in this sense of disharmony between people. Therefore, among the nine types, INFP has nine kinds of peace. The perfection of Ni lies in the realization and persistence of goals and beliefs. INFJ can also sacrifice everything for this belief. As the "Mr. Tang Priest" of INFJ (whose personality prototype is Xuanzang), I always say that I can feed monsters. It is out of this perfect belief.
Faith and belief: by the way, analyze the interesting differences between these two words. Reading is meditation, looking up is looking up, so faith looks down ... Oh.
In fact, the simple ones are Fi and Ni, one believes in oneself, the other believes in others, and is loyal to one's own beliefs (this should be more appropriate for others to use "non-self").
Affectionate music and simple music: the difference between Fi and Fe can actually refer to introversion and extroversion. One difference between introversion and extroversion is depth and breadth.
Fi pays attention to emotional depth. INFP's music is like a dam, it always stores water and will not flow out. Once put into expressing repressed emotions, the dam collapses and pours out like a flood, which makes people feel that INFP's emotions are deep and deep. Philippine pays attention to the breadth of emotion. INFJ's music is like a river, which flows slowly into the distance, and the end of the river is the sea. INFJ's music mood is very stable, and there is always a sense of guiding the direction, while INFP fluctuates strongly, and many INFP songs are very different. Therefore, when INFP sings, it is easy to run away ... with tears in his eyes, as if he is the person who wrote this letter ... INFJ is very calm and can't see mood swings.
In addition, INFP's music tends to be very dramatic, just like the classic scenes in movies, it comes from life and is more beautiful than life.
Passive caution: INFP may take a negative attitude towards criticism because of Fi, INFJ will put emotions behind in some cases, and ta is much calmer than INFP, so INFJ is also called the most rational perceptual type, and TAs will even agree with the suicide's choice when they are helpless.
Judge first, make friends first: Influenced by Fi, INFP will judge whether a person likes it or not first. If he doesn't like it, he will basically be sentenced to death ... too lazy to continue to develop with you. Influenced by Ni, I will get along with you first, but occasionally I will judge by Fe, so it seems that it is more likely to break up with you suddenly. As a judge, INFP may be very cautious when making friends, or seldom make unfortunate friends.
Animation style:
Sorry, I'm not good at reading ... I watch a lot of animations, which can be considered as their preference for animation to some extent. For example, many INFJ people especially like Miyazaki Hayao animation.
The main function of INFJ is nickel and the auxiliary function is iron. Ni should be the first, Fe should be the second, on the contrary, Fi should be the first and Ne should be the second. That is to say, irrelevant imagination and metaphor are the core that INFJ wants to express most, with emotion in the back, INFP emotion expression in the first, metaphor and imagination in the back.
Therefore, INFJ's stories are very fond of ghosts and gods, fantasy, different worlds, supernatural, Zen, novelty, philosophy, travel and other themes. INFJ is very good at deepening the theme through symbolic things, such as Miyazaki Hayao's animation, Rumiko Takahashi's works, Mitsuru Adachi's works, insect masters, summer friends' accounts, Chino trip and so on.
INFP's stories are very fond of themes such as the depth of human nature, soul, beauty, communication difficulties (relative to Fe), the fall of human nature, anti-war, science fiction, delusion, love, and the relationship between men and women. INFP is very good at portraying themes through characters, such as Doraemon, xx in Harbor Spring, Hope Disappeared in Little Nagato, Falling in Love with a Secondary School Patient, Welcome to NHK, Iceberg, Young Woman on Radio, False Love and Cultural Story.
This also reflects the depth of Ni and Fi, while Fe and Ne reflect the breadth.
INFP's people are not only first-class, but also Philippine's portrayal of female charm is very high, so the characters in INFP's stories look very vivid. INFJ is just the opposite in this respect, and the characters are puzzling. For example, all the characters in Mitsuru Adachi's works seem to be the same person. Rumiko Takahashi has a similar problem. If you look closely, you will find that the characters and personalities in the works are very similar. The hero and heroine in "Inuyasha" and "The Realm of Reincarnation" feel that their personalities and people are all carved from the same template, and the people in the insect division speak in a similar way. This also includes the same story content and unclear role, which is also J's unique habit.
In addition, it is easy for you to judge whether the role created by INFP is MBTI-style, but it is difficult for the role created by INFJ. As a human observer, INFP is very good at grasping the personality of characters.
The story structure of INFP usually has a symbolic turning point, and the whole story pattern often changes because of an event. The story of INFJ is smooth, unlike the dramatic development of INFP.
Romance and Romance: INFJ and INFP are both romantics. It is said that they are divided into hard frontal lobe and soft frontal lobe.
Functionally, INFJ is more inclined to "faith-based romance", that is, it comes from other people's existing definitions of romance, such as sending flowers is a romance, dating in a beautiful coffee shop is a romance, imitating the plot in a book is a romance, and so on. The romance of INFJ has some universal significance.
On the other hand, INFP is often original, that is, unique and has unlimited creative space. INFP sometimes thinks that sending flowers is romantic, but sometimes it is not. Their romantic conditions all come from his own definition. In its definition, romance should stand up to arousing emotion and aesthetic feeling. This kind of aesthetic feeling is pure, without impurities, and does not need to meet any standards of romance and glamorous appearance. Another important thing is to make the other person feel that this is the emotional expression he wants to express. This is INFP's love expression.
Contradiction: INFP hates and opposes conflicts and disharmony caused by interests. Compared with ESTJ, INFP always opposes it. INFP is the strongest opponent of war. Among all the celebrities, no cases of non-psychotic INFP have been found. The significance of INFP's existence in human beings lies in balancing human greed for material and loss of humanity. INFP's attributes are definitely on the side of human beings. In real life, there are also many cases in which INFP ended his life because he could not bear the guilt of hurting others. In extreme cases, they even dare not step on ants, and some even eat vegetarian food. ...
On the other hand, INFJ has many famous people who are keen on war. Some INFJ people like sports, such as fighting, boxing and wrestling. Many INFJ people like football and rugby very much (INFP seems to be a barbaric sport). They look very quiet. INFJ accepted it to some extent and may even be obsessed with it.
Although the author of INFJ looks a little crazy ... but this is really based on the inferior function and extreme nature of INFJ, please note that this is not the case in most cases!
