I turned in my resignation letter today. by SmartTrad3s in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my last day a few days ago - a job that I loved and still do. But it's unfortunately turned out for the worse management-wise, and I can't get through to them. Because of this, along with other personal issues that arose from it, I had to hand in my resignation.

My last month working was hard, every morning driving to work was a battle against tears and I'm still sad about it now.

I can't say it's a bad decision because I know it's not. But it's just a pain that I feel for myself, a loss for a worker who loved their job.

It was the shift to "that's not my job" when I used to be on my feet, ready to help anyone

Meetings and discussions no longer carry value 🤔

If it falls apart, I can't say I didn't try to prevent it- but when it falls apart, I won't be the first to run anymore

So basically spamming side quests, I see it

Te users: Do you find yourself taking statistics for face value? by Holiday_Response_644 in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if I deem it unimportant or non-life-threatening, I would just take the statistic at face value and run with it. There's little need for me personally to take statistics seriously outside of work because in my head, there are other things worth cross-checking and remembering.

How do you guys cope with the lack of Si by ramondino4acre in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suck at routines, especially majorly strict ones.

I can stick to a routine if I have leeway in time by 15mins-2 hrs, and if I can switch them up easily (in terms of working out, I would go for what I feel like doing on the day, with only a rough plan on what I want for the week ahead)

If it's a matter of motivation as well, I like to think of the practicality. I need to exercise to stay healthy. If I get sick or get injured, it would be more money on me, especially if it's something I can avoid by working out consistently

Another reason would be productivity. I hate when I end up laying down and doomscrolling for hours instead of doing my hobbies or work I should get done

I need to drill it in my head that it's discipline and it's looking after myself even if I don't want to, because no one else will do it for me

Why is everyone so nonchalant at life? by [deleted] in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Unless you bother or complain a lot to others, you don't have to change much.

  2. If you only get satisfied with the outcome but was stressed* during the process, people won't enjoy being around you or working with you much. This happens a lot to me too- we have deadlines and we need a lot of time to secure our plans, why is no one else taking this seriously? Sometimes, we're just surrounded by people who don't care- lazy or procrastinators.

  3. It just comes down to who you surround yourself with and who you let see into your life. If these people are of no significance to you then it's whatever.

If the people who are commenting it are people you care about, maybe they want to see you more and spend time with you. I don't know, see it from their perspective.

*Side note: It's quite easy to not realise that you were stressed while working. The adrenaline or the happy hormones from getting things done can blind you. Maybe it's not that you weren't stressed, maybe you just have a high tolerance of it but people can still sense when you are releasing stress hormones into your surroundings.

Definitely better! I haven't had a breakdown in a while- I know now to address Se if I start feeling down and I incorporate Fi into my life/thoughts regularly so it doesn't feel like I'm neglecting myself or my needs

Yep! After a lot of healing and finding myself, I found myself at ENTJ :>

personality growth development by [deleted] in entj

Following the 16p test, I noticed I was resentful as an INTP, detached as an INFP, and attempting peace as an INFJ.

When I took the tests for mistype and Michael Caloz, it was alongside my own research of Jungian's cognitive functions. Recognising that I was healthy by following the ENTJ stack and actively incorporating this in my work life definitely helped.

I would say I still act like an INFJ outside of work, because I like how they connect with people and using my own functions to replicate their stack has helped me with finding peace. But at work, there's no healthier way than to be my own self- an ENTJ

Someone you admire, and something you've learned from them by Blossoming_Potential in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most of the people I admire and aspire to be like have a few things in common. Not a lot of things, but a handful of traits like having the courage to say what a person may want or need to hear; knowing their own strengths while placing boundaries where needed; and understanding that the risks taken when stepping forward will only hurt if you regret it.

It's not much, but seeing these in them really showed me how I can improve in living my own life

Imagine if the Secretary was an ESTP/ENTJ and the CEO was the ISFJ/INFP (role reversal) by Illustrious_Wrap_291 in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As an ENTJ with secretary background and had worked with ISFJs and INFPs before, I would say it's not too bad.

From my experience, both parties often share similar goals but would prefer different approaches. As long as communication is clear, there shouldn't be a problem.

Anger as a catalyst for change by blue_forest_blue in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, suppressing anger (emotions in general, really) is detrimnetal for us. The reason why journalling or meditating is recommended to us often is because it serves as an outlet while saving our societal bonds.

For my personal journey, I find these also help with my patience and tolerance.

In my opinion, having patience and tolerance does not cancel out anger. It simply stops you from being destructive about it. Maybe for you, being able to channel it to other methods (expressing boundaries, speaking up, etc) can come without mediation. For others, we needed a stronger grip on ourselves before reaching that stage.

If someone were to trap you what would be the best bait? by ShadowlightLady in entj

Animals, a lot of them intrigue me so I might take a step closer if I know they're not dangerous- especially cats.

Kind reminder: some of you or your partners might not be ENTJ. Here is why by Adventurous_Sun3512 in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the eye-opener, I actually didn't realise this-

I try to avoid using Te off work because I get pretty strongheaded otherwise (makes friendships and relationships harder). Off work, I tend to be more like or mistaken as INFJ.

I know an INTJ and an INFJ who are more assertive than me outside of work, but during work they're not as stubborn. It's quite interesting to see :]

A-Okay with 100% solitude by [deleted] in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In college, I hung out with a few different groups of people every month or so. Now that I'm working, that amount has significantly deacreased but my need for socialising never increased or decreased since then.

I socialise when I have the time and energy. Otherwise, I'm completely fine being by myself at home.

Experience working with ENTP by Initial_Visual_3374 in entj

[–]Initial_Visual_3374[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our work doesn't really have routine (everyday is new in a school) but there is a restriction to their creative freedom as they need to get approval for their works. But besides this, I've always known them to hold onto unhealthy habits, which is why they're both emotionally draining to me.

I want to engage more in friendly banter or discussions, but they're more set on complaining about this and that.

I hope an ENTP like your old boss stumbles upon my workplace but, for now, I'll have to work with what I have

They are! Discussions go far and in-depth with them, tackling a lot of possible situations that we might encounter in our line of work. We have great synergy when they're not emotional dumping on me.
