Intro to INFJ PERSONALITY TYPE

The MBTI is a self-reported personality survey on respondents’ feelings and preferences. Then you align yourself with one of the 16 MBTI personality types.

Each MBTI type has 4 letters:

Either an I or an E letter initially. These need for having an /introverted or extroverted MBTI type respectively
This first letter is then followed by either an S or letter N (sensibility/intuition),
Then a letter T or F for the thinking and the feeling MBTI types.
And then finally either a letter P or a letter J or a P (judgment/perception).

The main idea of knowing your MBTI type is that your raised self-awareness means you can match your behavioural responses:

To work more effectively on a team, especially in terms of dealing with conflict.
You can also communicate more effectively if you have a better idea of how people process what you tell them.

How to spot the INFJs at work

They are creative, compassionate, and sensitive. They are especially sensitive to injustice and their purpose in life is often to help others. Advocates are usually insightful and altruistic, as well as perfectionistic. They often find it hard to open up.
They thrive in careers in which they have the chance to connect and help people: teachers, psychologists, authors, and medical workers are some of the best career options for them.
Advocates’ work must align with their purpose and values; it also has to give them the freedom to be creative. If these criteria are met, they will excel in any workplace.
Hierarchies don’t matter to them, they see themselves as equal to everyone else. They often feel frustrated if they feel unheard and unappreciated by their colleagues.
INFJs are usually well-liked in their workplace because of their positive and cooperative nature, although as introverts, they like working alone.

INFJ Productivity Tips

Schedule your time. Having a schedule will help you become more organized and ensure you have time for everything.
Find a work-life balance. Advocates are often prone to burnout and stress, so this is the key. You can’t pour from an empty cup: you need time to relax and recharge to be able to do your job well.
Exercise. Working out is good for both physical and mental health, and it helps reduce stress. I’m not saying you must become a gym rat: any physical activity that gets your heart pumping will work just fine.
Learn to say no. Your time and energy are valuable, and you need to realize that. Saying yes to everything is a sure way to burnout.
Set reminders. If you catch yourself forgetting little tasks like watering your plants or picking up the packages on time, set reminders.

How the MBTI defines Extroversion and Introversion

As the way you focus your efforts and thoughts:
– So if you’re more inclined to exert yourself toward things outside of yourself, including interacting with other people and exploring the world, you are likely an extravert.

How much structure you like to have in your daily life:

When you place a priority on organization and long-term plans, that is an indication that you are a judging person.
