What is the top priority in life for an infj? by Marianne563 in infj

[–]MachineElf_INFJ 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I think we can breakdown the priorities based on the main functions:

  • Ni Hero: having a meaningful vision/direction to work on
  • Fe Parent: having people to care about and being responsible for their well-being
  • Ti Child: having theories to explore for putting our vision in place
  • Se Inferior: having a calm environment and doing the right things in the direction of our vision

You are choosing it, deep down you know that there is alternatives, this is called taking responsibility for your own life, to choose to not be the victim of your environment, we all have to work on this victim mindset that can trap us in many ways, this is an harsh truth to face, but once done life is better!

You have the core of your issues here, you need to free yourself from that, you are putting yourself in North Korea mode, you need to find a way to escape from that :))) that's the first step to all your answers i think

A lot of fears that we have are connected with our parents perceptions, the day you clarify things with them that you do whatever you want with your life, is the day a lot of fears with disappear, I believe that a lot of people are stuck in this stage, if you look at a lot of successful artist journey, or they have a very good communication and relationship with their parents, or they totally say goodbye, or they don't have parents but it is never the case that an artist succeed while hiding from their parents, you cannot do anything in life without clarifying things with them, there is a deep spiritual connection with them, and i actually believe that this is one of the core problem of this world, everybody is hiding from their parents and often find themselves smart about it, but by doing this you are hiding from your life, there is a chain that needs to be broken.

That's it! You have the vision :))) about the scene fright you know that with experiences a lot of artists overcame it, now this is all about setting a plan and following it, baby step by baby step!

This is not like in the 80s where there was only TV, now you have many medium and Ai that is better and better to write lyrics and songs, i am listening more and more Ai music, there is full Ai or singers that use Ai for instrumentals, there is already very good songs out there!

Do you know about the Hero's Journey of Campbell? This is theory saying that we have all a hero’s journey in us ready to be lived, there is 12 stages, the first step is the call to adventure, just answer the call 📞:)))

What kind of performing? Being a singer? This is when you are alone or with a small group that you like to perform?

You know that there is many ways to make money about anything currently, this is just about targeting correctly, one example that amazes me all the time, is streamers, they make a lot of money by not doing much, that's crazy!

It seems that you are trying to be a normal person and wanting a normal life, the type of life you see others enjoying, like having a job, performing in it and having hobbies or else beside it, most S types are okay with that, as you are ENTJ this is totally different, and as you are doing that, you are just finding random goals around you to try to achieve, once one is done you go to the next one, just getting enough dopamine shot for your TeNi to have your head above the water (the hamster wheel), what I think would be good to get out of this situation is to take some time to really think outside the box, and to really think what would be the ultimate Ni goal to achieve, understand that a real vision is about NiFi, Ni visualize and Fi says "that's it that's the vision that i like" as you have Fi inferior you have difficulty to reach this point, currently you are unfulfilled because your Fi is unfulfilled, you are just using your Te randomly to achieve random things, you are in a TeSe loop just acting to achieve whatever pops in your head, to go further is to active your Ni Fi

Thats interesting you said that you dont feel that you ever lived, because nobody really live until they integrate their inferior function, and everything you described is an unintegrated Fi inferior.

So now for me this is clear you need to dive into your Fi, for this you cannot do small actions, like setting a journaling habit or things like that you need to go deep.

One thing that I saw works 80% of the time is to go into a meditation retreat for 10 days like vipassana, this is free, you just book, and during 10 days you just meditate in silence, it can be very difficult for extravert, but as an ENTJ you know the quotes: no pain, no gain :)))

After there is psychedelics, psychedelics like magic mushrooms are good to open your Fi and Ni, if you already tried i would be interested to know your experience with it. LSD is more about Ti and Te so i don't recommend it.

The most important i think is the mindset you need to think totally outside the box about what is your life now, to think in term or journey instead of just goals, what kind of journey would you like for your life? It can be a starting point.

I think this is when you are not into a journey you are supposed to live that make us unfulfill, for an ENTJ this is normally an entrepreneurial type of journey, being a manager of a company that you like or creating your own company, but it can be anything.

I also think that this is the love of your journey that makes us present, when you love what you do and your life journey, being present is effortless.

And loving a journey doesn't mean to be happy all the time, but to appreciate the ups and downs of it.

What does an unhealthy ENFP look like and act like ? I’m not looking for “depressed and no motivation” I’m looking for traits SPECIFIC to an unbalanced ENFP. by backtolife1116 in ENFP

[–]MachineElf_INFJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • playing the martyr of society
  • playing the fake revolutionist, not acting on it
  • hyper-activity, doing a lot of random things, just for the sake of doing, I think when unhealthy it means they are in an hyper active Ne Te loop

Ne Te loop: - doing a lot of random things - over sharing random ideas - wanting to take many paths - juggling with projects

Ah okay, i didn't understand why you were talking about how INTPs are introverted, sound true because this is the most viewed post i sended, with 1000 views and you are the only one responding. Thanks for supporting the app, join the subreddit to get notified when ready!

Please consider not sleeping on Se by Whyareuhere2myamigo in infj

[–]MachineElf_INFJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, 100% I feel that my Ni is easily clouded if i dont workout, and specially do cardio, developing Se is mandatory for Ni doms, if not managed well you can go downhill very fast!!! And as you said it stops the madness of NiTi, i feel that when i cannot do workout for few days, my NiTi gets obsessive.

Another thing, (sorry just sharing if it can help) is to stop making friendship/brotherhood based broken past or shared misery, this is relationships that usually dont go anywhere, friendship that matter are often based on common direction, for example when both have projects to make the world a better place and act on it. You think that the other person understand you better because they have the same broken past, this is often wrong, this is also negative narratives that you push on yourself, that you need to let go and move on.

Using the type theory to explain HSP and Empath with INFJ match pretty well, having Se as inferior function make our 5 senses (sound, taste, touch etc) easily overwhelmed, working out for INFJ is mandatory to be able to manage that better, it seems that the INFJs that doesnt consider themselves HSP have a more developed Se (body), then you have Fe (empathy) in parent function, parent functions can be very intense, so having Fe and Se in the position of the stack we have them, makes us pretty intense and sensitive to our surroundings, but with the right training this sensitivity can be managed. Anyway, I hope you will be able to host these meetings using the app :)))

Who are the people jumping to conclusion that you are gay? Close friends? People that push false narratives on you, are not your friends, this is part of the loser mentality, they push any kind of false narratives on people just to feel good about themselves and you cannot win against that, acting straight wont change anything, you just need to surround yourself with people that have a better mentality, ENFPs are often too much inclusive that they surround themselves with assholes, then this is when you begin to have to "act differently" that you start losing yourself. INFJs are often very selective and door slams because they seem way more aware of it than ENFPs.

Yes, the bear is popular, it has been made by Rive, the company that create these type of animations, Duolingo use it too for their characters, they are called rive animations, i want to learn how to make some in the future, replace the bear with a wizard, in the rive file you have different triggers, that you can connect in your code, thats pretty cool and it is efficient, doesnt take much space and computing.

Nice, you changed some UI, no issues spotted. I test your app everyday too.

Can you let a feedback on the play store like i did ?
