in Self-Development

Every individual has a different path to follow for personal growth and development, and their personality type, such as ENFP, plays a significant factor. I’m going to try to focus on continuing this series, since it is an extremely valuable subject to address. After all, self-development is one of the most beneficial uses of any […]

Self-development is one of the most important uses of any personality system. Oftentimes, personality systems are used poorly, to do things like excuse bad behavior. Naturally, that’s easier than actually using them for self-improvement. Since you’ve stumbled onto this INFP development page, hopefully you’re striving to use this system in a more impactful way.

Self-development hasn’t been a subject we’ve focused on too heavily here. It’s not that we don’t find it important; it’s just that Ryan and I tend to be more naturally inclined towards the analytical and technical stuff.

in Personality Typing 101, Self-Development

This blog post goes out to all those people that seem to think that emotions have no place in decision making. The general premise is that the best decision is one that is made based only on pure logic taking no emotions into account. I hate to break it to you, but that idea is […]

All types can bump up against motivation struggles. I think it’s assumed that certain types will struggle more than others, and maybe that’s true, but I don’t think anyone is immune. I’ve seen quite a few ISTPs complain about struggling to motivate themselves, especially in school. So, I’m just going to talk about how I […]

So, let’s talk about the practical application of type theory. I know many of us get into type theory simply because we want to learn more about ourselves or maybe just think it’s an interesting hobby. If that’s your reasoning, that’s great, but if you want to take things a step further; there are quite […]

Personality typing, like Myers-Briggs and any 16 types variant, is often dismissed as pseudoscience. However, pseudoscience or not, it does have daily, practical value.  As a tool for understanding people, personality typing is especially applicable in the workplace, where it’s critical to be able to work effectively with others. Below, I’m going to list 6 […]
