Send me a text This video is the eight (and last) of this series that gets into the actual cognitive functions. Thinking is a judging function - it's what we rely on to make rational decisions. Thinking looks to detached (from emotional values and beliefs), logical and technical criteria to answer \"what should I do?\" Extraverted functions are focused outward to the objective world unconnected to your personal experiences - the world that we all can interact with. Put them together and you have...

Send me a text This video is the fourth of this series that gets into the actual cognitive functions. We use intuiting when we perceive what something could be by hypothesizing about it. We look into where it came from and where it could be going. It's abstract and focused on finding possibilities, patterns, and concepts. Introversion is a focus of your mental energy inward to reprocess and make sense of things BEFORE interacting with, and seeking, new experiences. Put them together and you have...

Send me a text This is the fifth video in a series that is slowly getting more into cognitive processes, MBTI, and the differences between all our wonderful types. In this video, I talk briefly about judging and perceiving. There are many stereotypes that people throw out there that take away from what's really going on under the surface. Hopefully I cleared some of them up! In the later videos, I'll go into the differences between introverted and extraverted judging and perceiving cognitive pro...

Send me a text The main cause of an INFP getting angry is when they feel that their values are being violated. They are usually very patient people who are not quick to anger, but when they do get angry, it is usually because of something that has really hurt them in some way. Sound familiar? \"I'm an INFP and I'm feeling a strong emotion right now. It's anger. It's a really tough situation, but I know that I shouldn't let my anger get the best of me, because 1) it'll make me evil, and 2) it wil...

At the heart of it all is the question: what do these feelings mean? And how c...

Send me a text The INFP is a highly imaginative and idealistic personality type, with a great deal of innovative, conceptual, and artistic potential. They spend lots of time lost in their own imagination and internal world, which may at first seem detached or far away. Their unusually rich internal life allows them to excel at creative problem solving, but it also means that sometimes they can miss the big picture. They can become so absorbed by the inner workings of their imagination that they ...
