Hi! So lately I have been finding self love and let me tell you, that is the key to being an INFJ. To knowing it’s okay that we feel so strongly. I think it’s brave how vulnerable I can be. I know my dark side and I am learning to forgive and let go. I am using my self love by helping other people learn self love. It has led me to the path I am on in life. I want to do motivational speaking, and own a summer camp, and write movie scripts. I want be strong both mentally and physically so I push myself to be the best I can be. When I put that out into the world, it returns happiness to me. My goal is to spread this happiness through self love and to give back. Afterall, happiness is contagious. I force myself to get out of the house. However I’m usually quiet and people watching, but I learn a lot and share some really amazing moments with strangers.
Furthermore, I agree with the other Taylor. I need structure. I need for myself to be the best me, so I always put my needs first.
Thank you Joel, Antonia, and Charis for guiding me through the crazy inner workings of an INFJ. It’s nice to know I’m not alone.
Weirdly one thing that works for me is imagining myself from a third person view (like a Sims character) :) or how a person I look up to would behave in this situation.
You are spot on when talking about the importance of developing auxilary function. Fe seems scary because one has to go out and interact with people in order to exercise it. But speaking from experience, that was when the greatest breakthroughs have happened in my life.
Ha, well, if you’re Bruce Wayne, get yourself an Alfred to remind you when you have become too apathetic. Batman=total INFJ. Symbolic thinking “Become what you fear”, wants to fight for a better Gotham, but lapses into periods of “hibernation” when he sees no point in helping a city that doesn’t want him/ fears him/ never changes.
For me having structure and rules works. Strict bedtime, limited internet hours, scheduled daily routines like running and eating breakfast. Also forcing myself out of the house, even if its going to the library to read, so long as I’m not stewing away in my room in my head, letting 10 hours pass staring at a computer screen. That’s when the apathy, distaste for the outside world, information obsession sets in. Its easier to face the world and move into action if you make going out in the world a daily habit.
