Why Every Virtuous Infj Is Wired With Noticeably High Morals explores key ideas related to psychology, presented clearly and practically.
To put it in simple terms, the INFJ personality
type is nothing without their highly valued
virtues and morals standards. Known to be
fearless in their pursuits of worldly justice
and compassion, not only is this highly moral
personality type always willing to do the right
thing, but they also have a few unique standards
that some people wouldn’t consider so virtuous.

the overly observant INFJ knows first hand that
unfortunately, that’s simply not always the case.
Sure, everyone has fluctuating values that vastly
differ from one another, but when it comes to the
basics of being a kind and upstanding citizen,
INFJs can’t wrap their heads around cruelty and
indecency. Whether it’s rooted in their empathetic
values or rather, their logical understanding that
human’s need each other's help in order to thrive
in this world..one of this compassionate type’s
biggest fears is coming off as hypocritical
when it comes to their respected virtues.
Ironically, the INFJ doesn’t exactly choose to
stay on this moral high ground as perfect-scored
as they do. Most of the time they have no choice
but to invite their morals in on their mental
debates, and because of that, they can’t escape
moral decision making even when it comes to what
advice to give. One of their highest-valued
morals, honesty, is a great example of this.
Realistically, INFJs know that sometimes it’s
better to keep honest opinions and observations
on the down-low until they can gauge how that
other person may take it. However, with their
forever squeaking morals coaxing them to be the
most honest, they can be, they get put in a pretty
sticky situation. Luckily, usually INFJs have a
way of navigating through information and details
to form hard-truths in a way that is easier for
others to digest. Unfortunately because of this,
Number 3: Their values aren’t always cut and dry
In comparison to the majority of the other 15
Myers-Briggs personality types, the analytical
INFJ personality type is known to really utilize
their personal values and morals as a part of
their cognitive skills. On top of the everyday
morals we expect all humans to have, INFJs
hold very particular beliefs of what's right and
wrong. In fact, not only are their beliefs rather
particular, but paradoxically, they also fluctuate
and aren’t as black and white as people expect
morals to be. For the INFJ, this can be rather
complicated when it comes to explaining to others
especially for the means of boundary setting. It
can be difficult to explain that they hold each
and every one of their morals at such high value,
yet they also can be changed at any given moment,
should new information come into their awareness.
Number 4: Their morals help them set boundaries
this crucial aspect of maintaining social
connections. The biggest obstacle they’re
faced with overcoming in particular seems
to be knowing when they’re just being overly
sensitive and picky in their relationships and
when their required boundary is accounted for.
Luckily, eventually, the INFJ matures past the
point of deciphering these 2 types of boundaries,
concluding that they need what they need and no
amount of mental and emotional energy is worth
overlooking it. However, before that maturity
happens, the INFJ is faced with countless tests
and lessons where they’re pushed to use their
morals as means of boundary setting. For example,
INFJs would never make someone else feel guilty or
ashamed for declining an offer to spend time with
them because they know that they also use this
healthy boundary setting tactic from time to time.
Deeply imaginative and secretly adventurous,
if the INFJ was wired with anything other than
decent amount of trouble. I mean, isn’t that
the purpose of morals in the first place?
To keep us out of trouble? Of course, this is all
hypothetically speaking, but considering the last
thing any INFJ wants to do is blindly conform to
rules and systems, if there were no morals to keep
them level headed, their strong beliefs could
spin them in directions that would probably be
looked down upon by society. In fact, being
considered so independent on so many fronts,
without their extremely prominent morals nagging
them to stay up to date with the bare minimum of
social morality such as keep in touch with family,
helping others and contributing to society,
INFJs would probably choose the complete hermit
life - remaining open for the rare visit.
Some INFJs would say they’ve been straying away
from the goody-two-shoes title they received
in grade-school thanks to their reserved outer
mannerisms. However, when INFJs reach adulthood,
they realize that being considered a human
actually quite proud of. Besides kindness
and empathy, being known for having a strong
set of morals and the experience of using
them to the advantage of everyone involved,
is an admirable thing to be known for. And so,
while they weren’t exactly wired with these high
morals because they enjoy the reputation it gives
them, it’s a lesson in itself for this personality
type just to come to terms with feeling proud
of this admired aspect of their personality.
morals, they probably wouldn’t be so keen
on helping others. Sure, they’re equipped with
an empathetic need to help their fellow humans.
feelings and experience the emotions of others,
it doesn’t mean they necessarily have to act upon
them. This is where their deeply set morals come
into play. Their empathy and morals are indeed
separate mental functions but they go hand in
hand in order to push the INFJ to achieve
that superhero-human level they strive for.
While it seems exhausting at times, this advocate
type wouldn’t feel at all fulfilled in life if
they didn’t have the motivation to fuel their
empathetic gifts. In fact, if INFJs were stuck
feeling all the feelings of the people around
them without the understanding that they can
make even the smallest difference, the life
of an INFJ would be considerably miserable.
Every INFJ knows what it’s like to struggle with
things that they can’t really explain to others
due to the understanding that not many people
relate to them. Since childhood most people with
this introverted and introspective type question
why they have such troubles with certain aspects
of society. More specifically, they question how
they’re going to go about fitting into a world of
increasingly laxed-morality with their high values
that they rightfully refuse to put aside. As a
matter of fact, this morality-related difficulty
is one of the INFJ’s most prominent struggles.
And it comes about in more than one area of life,
ironically, usually without them even realizing
it. An example of this in today’s westernized
culture is the influx of meaningless casual sexual
experiences, and the music and media surrounding
it. Sometimes INFJs can’t help but to wonder how
people can be so narrow-minded in thinking that
hook-up culture is no big deal. Not only that, but
it also worries them when it comes to going out
and socializing themselves, because sometimes it’s
difficult to lay these ‘out-of-the-norm’ moral
grounds out without seeming like a total grinch.
Well PSYCH-Os, that’s it for today’s video..
