ISFP Explained: What It Means to be the Adventurer MBTI Type
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ธ.ค. 2020
- Sensitive, observant and creative, the ISFP person is an introvert who is open to stimulating new experiences. They have been dubbed as a “tactical composer” and “adventurer”. They constitute roughly 9 to 10% of the population with a slightly higher percentage of women than men. ISFPs live in the world of their senses. They are keen observers with an artistic grasp of what fits and what doesn’t.

ISFP here who also has the avoident personality... I like being with people and I get along well with them but only for small amount of time. It can be pretty frustrating and lonely at times
I agree with you. ISFPs are ISTPs that actually kept their feelings and didn ' t read those books shattering your imagination and seeing how useless they are most of the time. Those books overran me faster than rain water dripping down off a cliff.
Same mann
Yes i can agree with you so much with this. 😆
I am an ISFP, but I can’t really put it on my tongue why I prefer to avoid people. I feel like I’m at an odd place in my life that’s for sure, so I am very uncertain where I’m going. And maybe that uncertainty leads me to avoiding people, don’t know.
I agree huhu
It's kinda hard being an isfp for me because I want to be happy, bubbly, funny and I make myself laugh all the time. I love the world. But it is not always friendly, it can be critical and it's just plain sad at times. Which is one of the many reasons I prefer to be alone, I like my own company so much lol. I have to be serious at work and business like. At times I forget who I really am because I have to be the opposite so often to be taken seriously and though I'm good at fulfilling my responsibilities and it feels good to get things done, it kinda snuffs my lust for life, or rather makes me feel like a prisoner that can't indulge in what I really wanna do due to taking up so much of my time. It's painful to think about the things I miss out on too much. I wish that money didn't matter or I'd just make crafts and drawings for people, go places with my husband, cook, walk around outside and explore...basically there are a million things I want to do, and I barely get any time to do it!!
This is exactly how I feel sometimes.
As an INFP, I can relate.
That's what I thought also. Imagine how good this world would've be if we lived as actual humans and if those stupid human-made standards never existed.
Yessss :(
I can totally relate to it 💯
"Rather than make a detailed plan they wouldn’t follow anyway", that describes me perfectly, i have never been able to follow any routine my whole life and one time i did i was diagnosed with symptoms depression and OCD.
BROOOOO the way this just described me , one time i tried getting into a strict routine in high school to stop procrastinating and start being more productive and it lead me to a mental breakdown with symptoms of depression , OCD , intrusive thoughts , etc
Interesting:) for me normally i also wouldnt like following any routine or rules, but if that's my own routine for myself, i would follow it pretty well, it just keeps me more grounded in the present and not too overwhelmed by my daydreamings and thoughts:)
Oml fr why so true 😭😭😭
My dad tried to give me a routine but it failed after like a week
Glad to hear that I'm not alone
Being an ISFP:being took as “innocent docile and naive” cuz i’m shy and quiet but in reality being really determined but simply don’t ask for permission to do what i want like many other ppl i just do it. Now i see why my mom thinks my social skills are non existent anywayz. I’m not athelthic at all btw. I’m more into fashion and interior designing than sports
Me too. All those things. Although, if I really need to physically do something, I surprise myself with my ability to sort of just inherently be decent at things IVE NEVER DONE lol
Legit same
same
Me too I'm super into design. I've usually felt a little insecure playing sports because I'm unathletic
Me to sis
I'm ISFP and I'm studying in a field that goes completely against what ISFP are supposed to be good at XD
Good luck
It’s not like these things are completely accurate
I'm an ISFP and studied computer engineering which is definitely not typical for an ISFP. Now that I am in the job field, I am grateful for the opportunities it provided me, but not sure if this is for me
Same , I hope to become a scientist / researcher. I'm studying biomedical science
Same here.. isfp working as an accountant
I’m an isfp and this vid is super accurate. Ever since I was younger I wanted to be someone to help people or animals like a nurse or a vet or just any job to do with animals/creativity/nature ☺️
I used to feel very bad about stray dogs, even adopted one - that was in 3rd grade but now as an adult I am the opposite of what used to be
True! I’ve always wanted to work in the nursing field ever since I can remember… I’m now 35 & have been doing it for 15 years!!!
It can be hard navigating life as an ISFP. My kindness has been taken advantage of time and time again and it has left me with this sad feeling that most people in the world are just inherently selfish. It is hard to trust new people and I find myself enjoying my own company more and more. I take so much joy from consuming art and spending time in nature, sometimes it feels like it is the only time I truly feel at peace.
Being taken advantage of, always. And always being hurt in return of kindness.
I usually ended up bored in class (90% of the time I basically fell asleep), and definitely prefer hands-on learning - I'm a journeyman machinist. I love using my creative abilities, whether its through sport or music, and I love exploration (I spent 1.5 months on my bike last summer, wild camping and seeing things I'd never seen before). I love being an ISFP!
As an ISFP I can understand why in my early days I often got misunderstood by my parents and everybody around me by doing what I think is fun. I often wander around the woods and observe the surroundings and because of that I get scolded or get beat up by my parents, I often do not respect my parent's uneccesary strict rules and I really despite when I felt manipulated by others. The fact that I found my parents very manipulative is because they set standards to myself often comparing me to other sons/daughter's achievement. Now I can understand why being an ISFP is so exhausting because I realized the world is very manipulative 😢 so I think as ISFP our best strength is our independence, seeking attentions and validation is a big mistake, we should connect more with our selves, do what is necessary to do and be more attentive on the manipulation of your surroundings, trust me we are not wrong it's just the world want's us to put in a box and be their puppets. We are the Lone Wolves of society, the escapees of the matrix. I felt bad for some comments saying they felt bad for being ISFP. Don't feel bad for yourselves. "I say stop being perfect, let's evolve, let the chips fall where they may".
I watched this with my sister and we are both laughing hysterically. I've never felt this called out before.
We are free beings. I can feel my soul crying whenever I'm restricted by rules, routines, and people's opinion.
"ISFP's want to experience everything life has to offer" well of course, I'm always surprised when my friends aren't interested in something 😂
Me: wanna go outside?
Me: **the only one who wants to go outside**
@@Raphsophomes omg same LOL in my first years of high school i rlly wanted to go out during break but my friends didnt want to ,_, i ended up leaving that group and came back to them a year later when they changed lmao
@@isa2738 for me its music, if you listen to bad music thats when i wait a year for someone to change.
Same , can we friends?
@@_divi_ hi friend
*"they prefer to focus on the present and improvise a lot, rather than create a detailed plan they won't follow anyway"*
i feel so attacked lmao
I was told by my friends that I have a good social skills, even thought they know I am an introvert. An ISFP to be exact. But I think, I can vibe with any conversations but not those with analytical topics or debates. I can offer an ear to hear their struggles (more of a societal issues). But in the long run, I don't speak much. Also, I am not athletic nor active. I am not into sports. I am artistic and I just know when I put my hands into stuffs I haven't known yet, I can learn fast.
I only took interest with playing guitar quite late. I am already in my 20s. But I learned less than a month. Haha.
Same lol I’m so introvert yet I can make a good conversation with random people
If they are so common, why are there NOTHING BUT INFPS AND INFJS. Also: isfps aren't "disinterested In abstract theories" we can actually switch to using our intuitive functions very seamlessly and more so than a lot of types. We actually really like to do that, it's a part of why we are so good at turning ideas into reality. (Edit this is outdated, scroll down the replies and read how I typed myself I'd appreciate it alot, I think it's a really useful insight into the mind of an isfp, pls pls read)
Alot of ISFPs get mistyped as INFx
@@cosmicxfungi2939 this is true, I mistyped as an intj, infj, infp, and even enfp, but after a lot of studying, advice, being typed by others, and really really taking a brutally honest look at myself, I found that I'm an isfp.
I feel like if we were to a recount the worlds mbtis there would be way more infxs
@@blazing-chan it's especially confusing because the definition of intuition is so inconsistent especially in this community, by definition, seining types are actually MORE intuitive but like, with real objects, where as intuitive types are abstract. But the thing is, sensing types can be abstract in explaining visual details, the real world is in fact a very abstract place. For example jimi hendrix, he's an ispf, but is he in the concrete world? Hardly.
I am so surprised whenever I meet an ISFP myself because I can't even recognize them myself as an ISFP myself I always encounter nfp and nfj in my friend groups
ISFP here : are any of you really good at turning on your extrovert switch?
I'm an ISFP to the T. It's scary but cool to know. Taken the test thrice at different times of my life and got ISFP every time. The only thing I dislike about this mbti is the structure part. Planning for the future, having some structure is definitely what I've struggled with. I definitely choose to "go with the flow" often. Even then, on most days I'm just happy to be living in the moment lol. I guess I would say it's easy for me to turn off from the vows of society and just breathe and be satisfied with life. I know being creative is very stereotypical of this type but it's so true for me... I love creating stuff and it's the time I'm the happiest honestly... this might not be the best thing to say but we definitely are the hippies of the MBTI 😂 it's alright, I accept it ✌🏼
I really liked this explanation as it wasnt too focused on art and music. There are way more fields in which one can be creative.
“To be happy their work has to be meaningful and fulfilling and not just financially rewarding” why is this so true, I’m still young and my mother is always like “you should be a nurse they made good money” but I always tell her that I want to do something I like, something that’s enjoyable and not just for the money
same... when I respond like that to mom she dismisses me or looks at me like I am some sort of weirdo
I'm an ENTJ - curious to see what the opposite MBTI's were like - Hello Adventurers!
Hi^•^
Hello hello, did you inform yourself well?
I’m an ISFP and just tried dating an ENTJ. It didn’t work at all 😂
@@funnylilgalreacts oof lol
I'm an ISFP but I feel like I need an ENTJ in my life to balance myself
wait this is such a good video thanks for making these, it’s pretty hard to find them
3:42 EXACTLY!! Its why i wanna do a career path in sports - bc it seems so fun to me! I’ve always stressed that for me to engage in work and study i have to find it fun! Ofc there’s gonna be hardships, but i need the motivation of actually liking what i do lol
Yes please continue! ISFPs have stereotypical art masters but that shouldn't stop you from liking what you really want. Just be passionate about it, I know ISFPs are always good on what they do, good luck!
@@johnnynerdman2146 Thank you! I will!
And i guess there is some truth to that bc I do draw a lot! I even chose an art class in secondary school before dropping out bc - what dya know - all the pleasure was being sucked out of it :(. Its all good tho!
Wow. Makes sense why I want to work in tourism. Travelling and doing such activities make me so extremely happy that I want to work in a Jon where I get to help others feel that same happiness
Except I'm not creative at all. No matter how hard I try, I just can't visualize something new and make it reality. Whether that be writing, drawing, crafting, anything. I have zero creativity and it makes me feel like I'm missing a big part of myself. Or like the test was wrong. But I do love adventure and new things, and definitely explore the world with my senses. Much of this is accurate, but not all.
This was so helpful in understanding my isfp mum. I am an istj and I never quite understood alot of things about her.... now I do....thank you.
This explains the first sign I ever made for my shop..."Character is how you treat those who can do nothing for you."
Hey is it normal for an isfp to get her heart racing just after sending some messages to the class group chat?
I'm an INFP, but it's normal for me too lol-
I don't normally get nervous before i send messages but I always end up over thinking the message I send and soemtimes end up deleting it.
It's called social anxiety lol i have this since i was a child :)
same ahhaha
Idk if type personality has anything to do with it but yeah it has happened to me as well
Took the test, so I’m here, seeking an explanation. Nailed it! This is how I would describe myself, and how I live my life.
This description is insanely accurate….I feel it described me 💯
I'm having so much confusion whether I want to be a vet or a voice actor or a graphical designer ugh-
Mood
Dont worry, you have so much time in your life to figure out what you want to do :)
do it all
If I was you, I'd be a vet (as a job) and do voice acting/ graphical design as a hobby. You can always save up and quit your job later on to pursue an art career if it doesn't fulfil you.
I wanna be a vet but my health prevents that so I'm going for graphic design
Well that was excellent
🖤ISFP
This was spot on for me! I really hate telling people what to do including my children. I want everyone to feel free. I do a lot of things for the fun of it… I am structured thou, I mean I have been working at one industry for almost 21 yrs and I am over it.
Thank you for making this video
thank you for creating this awesome video about ISFPs🥰
I love singing. When I perform it‘s one of the best feelings ever, it makes me really happy and it‘s a lot of fun. The thing is, for a long time I didn’t want to show everybody how much I liked it/how good I was at singing, because it is something extremely personal to me. So singing to strangers felt always quite „scary“ to me. I simply didn’t want to.
Now, I decided to show it. There is a video of me singing on a website which I linked on my social media (for others to find if they by coincidence check out my profile). At school some people have spoken to me about it and they were genuinely nice. They were complimenting me and I do enjoy it. But still I sometimes find myself in „wanting to hide“. I feel like I know my singing is great, but I don’t want to share it with everybody. I don’t want semi strangers being able to listen to me. Because it‘s so personal to me, I prefer only singing to people that are really close to me. Even then I like to keep my quality to myself, so I know I am better than others think. Music, especially singing is probably the greatest way of expressing myself, but I don’t like to share it with anybody.
Getting close to me takes time. So it took me 4 years with my singing teacher until I was comfortable enough to open up my mouth fully and sing with a lot more capacity than before. I knew from the beginning that I was able to do so, but I simply didn’t feel comfortable enough at the beginning.
I feel the exact same. I have always wondered if anyone else felt this way. I know I'm good at singing but I don't really sing in front of others that often. But performing is absolutely one of the best feelings in the world.
IKR THATS HOW I ACTUALLY FEEL...I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME BUT ITS NOT IM GLAD 😊
Literally i love singing so much 🥺
Ah that’s a little different from me, I sing a little bit louder when I know someone is near me, I think I’m quite an attention seeker
almost all of it is accurate to me except only the creative part : ( i wish i was.
Babe.. ur pfp is bringing me back sad memories 😢
But I wish that will not stop you to finding your strengths. Everyone has their weaknesses. Not all Math geniuses can do athletes, and not all athletes can do Math, see, you just have to find who you really are, don't compare because your strengths are just somewhere inside you not on people. Love you 💖
Same!
Maybe take the test again
Same here. I can be fairly creative with solving a problem, but not in the context of fictional stories. If my teacher told me to write a one-page short story, I'd sit there all day with not a single word on the paper.
God damn this is crazy lol. This explains me soooooo well. Wow!
INFP right here. It would be great to meet an ISFP, we would make a great power couple! Similar, yet complimentary, would be fun times!
This describes me well as for I am a ISFP
Holy shit I didn't know the test I took was legit this is so weird.
Zenitsu is an ISFP.
Same man lmaooo
@@joanneheng4475 thats cooll
I love people but i hate ppl...like i don't like walking in public places alone...it's disturbing...but at the same time i love meeting new people.
and why am i so lazy and not wanting to do anything anymore, in fact i just play games and do nothing productive for a few years, i dont really want to travel and yes i do art but rarely, i feel like im not isfp anymore lol is mbti changes?
This is exactly the case for me. I feel like this type is prone to suppress their feelings if a traumatic occurence happens due to our extremely sensitive nature. I believe that we need to push ourselves more, even if we truly don't wanna do it. My sister has been a shut-in for many years as an isfp.
3:33 okay this is so ultimately relatable that it becomes funny
My mom’s isfp and I’m intj. I don’t know if it’s only me but sometimes it’s really hard for me to get along with her but most of the time we’re okay. It’s just that we’re too opposite.
as an isfp and 8w7 this video was quite a ride. half it was like 'yes that's me' and the other half was 'oh im the exact opposite'
BEST video on isfp’s!! Thanks🌷
Fellow cloud pfp ISFP yay
I mean it's kinda stereotypical.
when i was a child i always wanted to make a company for stray dogs and taking care of them.
all the quizzes i took said that i was an intj but i didn’t feel like i belonged to this type so i studied cognitive functions and i came to the conclusion that im an isfp and now that im thinking it i fit so well and i love being an isfp but sometimes can be really hard because i have so many things that i want to do through the day but i don’t have the time:,)
ISFP here with zero artistic ability.
Are you creative or a curator?
abstract feeling arts yashhh
i feel like my depression and anxiety ruined my result lol
This is really accurate for me as an isfp T
wow Michael Jackson is a BANG ON ISFP... That all I could think about watching this! I'm an ENFP :)
He's not even an isfp lol
Same
@@Raphsophomes then what do you think he is ?
I tried it for the first time and I got Isfp. Everything is correct except that I am not an adventurer.
I've taken the test 10+ times in the past couple of years and I always get ISFP yet I feel like less than half of it's qualities apply to me
Same
I either get isfp or infp, and then i try to learn the difference between s and n and i feel like im both
Same
Spot on- I’m an art teacher!
Wow that guy Jungkook (a singer) is quite a stereotypical isfp. Just like how im very infp. I can see how this type can get confused as some other type (specially INFx). Isfps seem like precious people uwu nice video
Are u army💜?
Please don't say uwu
Why is this so accurate 👁️👄👁️
I hope there's much deeper insight on Convergent ISFP who has well-developed Ni because they are pretty much different from the stereotypes
I'm an ispf who tries to befriend people but I do get offended easily if they are not intereated. I rlly love animals 🐾, I love sports, and I took nursing too now teaching
I'm here 'coz my crush is an ISFP, so I thought that doing a research abt ISFP's whould make me understand him more. But now, I think it all makes sense. Thankyou.
update: I fallen for him more
I am ISFP and I am postdoctoral scientist. I love my work. I find different ways to address the problems and consider a solvent-problem person. While many colleagues are locked by the rules, I try to give new perspective.
Do anything of this relate to you?
Yes! I'm biotechnologist and working on p&d area, cause I love to solve problems with my "strange" perspective.. People not always understand my POV
Ooh wow! Just took the test and I'm an ISFP working as a molecular biologist
@@vlin030 I read some that ISFPs would not make good biologist. I felt horrible because I have a BSc in Biochemistry and MSc in Molecular Biology.
How's it going for you?
Holdon, what? That is so accurate I can't even joke anymore. I thought it was nothing, but damn. I never thought it was true
Yes.. this is accurate..
I just looked up ISFP traits and i have every one lol
I love making plans but I can never stick to them for long😭😭
I know some ISFPS that are aggressive and confrontational. It just depends on what the topic they care about
I wanna retype myself! I’m an INFJ but some things don’t add up! 😰
Gentle individualism
Thats me introverted to the core. :)
My best friend is an isfp. I came to this to understand him.
I relate to you all
so many people here writing a whole ass paragraph telling their experience from being an isfp I’m so tired of trying to find out what i am i am just going to say i am an isfp
Class session move too fast for me to actually download stuff being thought, I usually have to read a sentence and ponder on it, how does this relate to other stuff etc
I also chose to become a lawyer but still one day plan to either adopt or open my own orphanage
One thing that’s wrong for me is that I have a dislike for children and physical touch, everything else is spot on
Pretty accurate
I wonder how autism and bipolar disorder 2 interact with my personal type ISFP 🤔 it’s interesting to think about
finally found my personality type
Even before Isfp knowing I was fate to art making and Any creative activity , it very like if I’m not creative something I’m feel like dying ! And that come with being a loner and deep in my own void .. my social skill is death .. to the point I don’t even want to have a partner .. I feel really at peace somehow !
I guarantee you that the percentage of ISFPs in Los Angeles is closer to 40%. Just a weird random observation.
Lol I’m an ISFP in Los Angeles.
Ok I'm moving

"draw them into careers as veterinarians" O_O uhm wut I'm sorry for not believing too much in mbti. I'm literally studying for a degree in veterinary science. I'm speechless.
I find here so many people same personality as me😀
i was an INFP but last night i took another test on a different site and the result was ISFP. now im kinda lost.
As an isfp, this is me 💯
yes!!!!!!
See if the world was 99% ISFP… than we’d have world peace!!! 🗺 ✌️
ENTP looking for an isfp to be a personal assistant some day. Had a great isfp friend years ago we connected like bread and butter , automatic
So...when I took the mbti test as a teenager, I came out with infj....but I took it again the other day and now I'm isfp? Is it normal for it to change?
i'm an ISFP-T
and i really wanted to become a vet how'd u know :O but it didn't really happen v-v
I love animal too much that I decided that I can't be a vet. haha.
I just retake the personality and found out i change from infp to isfp but seriously i think im still an infp even thou i have taken the test 4 times and the result is isfp.
Hello to Byun Baekhyun.. Our ISFP
I just wanna stay in the sun where I find

Also i get distracted really easily...

I don't believe in MBTIS but I relate to both INTP and ISFP so I'm lost lol
Me too. It’s like I’m a mixture of both
@@blanchegreco7201 i did my searches and I'm an ESFP :D
If u want to figure out which mbti u are
Just search up their traits, positive ones and negative ones and then search up characters you kin and look at their mbti
I'm sure half of them would be the one u have
When I related to esfp's traits
And looked up the characters I kin half of them had the same mbti

oi isfps
Im like isfp and infj lol, is that possible?
Eyyy people the same personality as me. Hi!
hi my fellow isfp's
