Alright, let’s get right into it, starting with..
Number 1: The requirement of boundary-setting
This isn’t the first (or last) time you’ll
hear us rant about just how important the
ability to set boundaries is for the INFJ
personality type, and that’s because there
is simply no alternative to this challenging
life requirement. To put it simply, INFJs are
known to fall into the people-pleaser role all too
often. Through this easygoing intended tendency,
the INFJ put themselves up against some of the
most unnecessary challenges and struggles. Whether
it’s due to the fact that they never want
anyone to feel embarrassed or disappointed,
or that they simply don’t want to be rude, peer
pressure can certainly pull on the INFJ’s heart
strings in certain scenarios. And although this
intentional apathy helps them connect with others
unlike anyone else, it can also result in
when the INFJ takes the necessary steps to
they allow themselves to stay true to who
they are and what they’re comfortable with.
Although it takes some practice, this specific
boundary-setting habit eventually allows the
If you’re an INFJ or if you know anything
it won’t come as a surprise that independence
is ultimately one of their most important
requirements for a happy life. Ultimately
preferring to march to the beat of their own drum,
this free-spirit can’t help but to follow
fact, this desire to be self-reliant goes
lot to do with their cognitive functions.
With their introverted intuition and thinking
functions playing a significant role in their
need for freedom, the INFJ is able to trust
their own logical conclusions and problem
solving skills over those that are suggested to
them. They don’t ‘need’ other people like some do,
resulting in both good and not-so-good outcomes.
While other types feel insatiable when they don’t
have people around, the INFJ’s creativity,
motivation and overall satisfaction for life
can suffer when they aren’t able to fully utilize
their independence. Whether it’s the controlling
boss in their life, the overbearing partner, or
simply the inability to follow their own intuitive
hunches, INFJs can easily feel restricted
when independence isn’t readily available.
While independence is among the most crucial
so is the need for human connection. While many
INFJs manage just fine on their own, deep down,
there’s always this nagging pull towards utilizing
their gifts for the sake of their fellow humans.
Even for this true introverted type, a prolonged
lack of human connection will always result in
them feeling like something is missing. Of course,
this doesn't mean they need a bustling social
life or a large circle of friends, but having a
romantic relationship or a few close friends can
profoundly impact how they perceive themselves
and the world around them. It's understandable
who often feel alienated and misunderstood,
however, this challenge only makes finding
special is what the connection must be in
order for it to be worth an INFJ’s while,
with small talk and casual acquaintances,
this type seeks connections that dive far beneath
the surface. For them, a deep connection requires
time and effort to cultivate and is essential
Much like their unquestionable need for freedom
and independence, the INFJ requires ample amounts
of solitude in their day-to-day lives. This
personality type can’t possibly live a fully
satisfying life without taking the necessary
time to themselves. Alone time is an essential
component to their overall mental, emotional,
spiritual and physical well being. Being the
extroverted feelers they are, INFJs are constantly
absorbing the emotions of others and trying to
find the best solutions to other’s problems,
which ultimately leads them further and further
away from being intune with themselves. On top
of that, their extroverted sensing function is
continuously subconsciously active, giving them no
choice but to always be picking up on the smallest
of details around them at all times. Considered
both a gift and a curse, these cognitive functions
it’s within these essential times of solitude
where the INFJ is able to fully ground themselves,
process the details they’ve subconsciously
observed and disconnect their own feelings
solitude is an absolute must, and without it,
Speaking of solitude, it’s important for the INFJ
to keep the rule of ‘everything in moderation’ in
mind. Although it’s considered completely natural
and necessary for this intuitive personality type
to focus on their inner reality, it’s in taking
the time to detach from their thinking where they
find the necessary balance they long for in life.
INFJs greatly benefit from distracting themselves
from their own thoughts, even if it’s done in
the comfort of only themselves. Whether it’s
through a creative outlet such as writing,
reading, painting, drawing, or through less
creative endeavors such as meditation, walking
in nature, exercising, or yoga.. When the INFJ
utilizes their less developed extroverted sensing
cognitive function in the proper way, they’ll
find a sense of happiness that isn’t available
through their familiar introverted intuition. To
spend at least 20 minutes a day actively staying
out of their overworked minds, INFJs find a new
sense of clarity, enjoyment, and appreciation
for the simpler things life has to offer.
To be an “understood INFJ'' might sound like an
oxymoron, but it’s not as far-fetched as it seems.
While younger INFJs may spend time longing to feel
more understood by those around them, the mature
INFJ doesn’t exactly need to be fully understood.
Over time, this personality type begins to take
pride in their mysteriousness and deep thinking,
eventually seeing their complexity as a quirk they
wouldn’t change if they had the chance. However,
every INFJ requires on some level, to understand
why they do things a little differently. In
reality, they're not as quirky or eccentric as
they might be perceived. While there’s a certain
level of feeling understood that comes from having
a few close human connections, it’s ultimately
up to the INFJ themselves to figure out who they
are. Thanks to the multitude of MBTI resources,
it’s never been easier for INFJs to gain a better
understanding of themselves. Of course, learning
about your MBTI personality type can help anyone
figure themselves out, showing where to apply
their strengths in life. Yet, for INFJs who are
experiences can provide a sense of belonging and
the comforting realization that they’re not alone.
Perfectionistic, self-critical and future-focused,
it’s fair to say that goal-setting and achieving
serves to be pretty important for the INFJ
type. The concept has been instilled in us
from an early age.. Always have a goal in mind,
both short and long-term. Well, there may just
be an ounce of legitimacy behind it all when it
comes to an INFJ’s overall satisfaction. In fact,
to say that INFJs need to set tangible and
realistic goals in life is an understatement,
for once this type loses sight of some form
of direction forward, they will quickly find
themselves lost, disorganized and even relying
on their shadow functions of indulgence and rash
decision making to get through day-to-day life.
Rooted in their need for continual learning,
having future goals gives the INFJ’s innate
creativity and imagination a focal point.
ruminate about any given piece of information,
having a clear goal gives their imaginative
intuition a direction. And since INFJs are known
for self-improvement, with a curious goal in mind,
Well PSYCH-Os, that’s it for today.. So, do you
