    Enneagram Type 8

    This chart is a chart of self-reporting types, and given the error rate of mbti, not to mention the underlying understanding of cognitive functions, is tenuous as a resource to support your opinion. Put simply, most who take the mbti go no further than an initial test...or two...or three. Many...

    Can you evolve into an INFJ?

    According to Jung, you cannot be both Te and Fe at the same time because those functions are in opposition (they would compete with each other for judgment). The functions exist in the order they exist for a reason. An extraverted judging function has a corresponding introverted judging...

    [INFJ] INFJs, NI-doms, and ad hominem

    The phenomenon known as biased assimilation practically guarantees that such an arbitrary point will likely be reached, given enough time. The harder you push against someone's belief system, the more dogmatic and convinced they will become of that belief system. That is why it is fruitless to...

    Can you evolve into an INFJ?

    Yep...it's not merely a T vs. F thing, as on a MBTI test...INTJ and INFJ are wired differently.

    "Just" having a conversation.

    Thank you for ALL the input! Lots of food for thought. I agree on the personalitycafe article, and I have read about the Ni-Ti loop being a dysfunctional thing, though what constitutes its manifestation is often rather vague for those who attempt to explain it. A temporary overriding of Ti is...

    "Just" having a conversation.

    They are both convergent, but unlike INTJ, INFJ does not necessarily need external validation (Te) of its findings. I don't need to actually say what I am thinking if I make an intuitive leap. That is the particular quirk of the Ni-Ti loop and why INFJ can be unusual with their insights or...

    [INFJ] please help me with my MBTI..

    I get an introverted feeling vibe here (Fi-Ne) INFP 9w1 possibly. Nothing really fourish in the questionnaire. Not much Ti precision to be five...detachment might be to remain peaceful...scattered, contradictory in places. Cause, greater cause (NF), with group expanding ideas (Ne-Te) emotions...

    [INFJ] Different "flavors" of INFJs: How the enneagram differences manifest in personality

    It is more likely that ENTJ is 8 because it has both Te and Se in its function order (dom-tertiary)...with a primitive Fi. ENTJ, ESTJ and ESTP is what I see for 8. ISTJ maybe, but Te auxiliary, like INTJ is not the same as Te dominant. On INFJ 7? No. The difference between 7's and 4's is that...

    [INFJ] Different "flavors" of INFJs: How the enneagram differences manifest in personality

    6w5 or 6w7. 6w5 if introverted and 6w7 if not.

    Enneagram Type 8

    Where did that INFJ + 8 information come from? I have not encountered any Enneagram proponents citing INFJ and E8 as a correlation, not commercially anyway. NONE. DjArendee has recently come to think 8's and INFJ can mesh but that is because he is Se-Ti and would hardly know anything about being...

    The coming storm against INFJ's...

    Or muppet even! Your videos are very interesting DJ. The rant about INFJ impostors is quite hilarious! I try to mimic the way you start it but for the life of me, I cannot keep a straight face. I see hyperbole in some of your comments. These are good to really emphasize differences in regards to...
