As an estp, the biggest change to my life was actually finding my type. Nobody can improve or work on their own weaknesses without somebody to point them out. Poking my head out of the estp matrix and exploring what's out there was a life changer for me on a maturity level.
Superficially, as a philosophy program graduate with next to no interest in athletics, ESTP was just about the last type I ever considered. Now, after years of reflection, and going by some of your pieces, including this one and the one on oppositional functions, I'm starting to think I might very well be an ESTP.
Is there any advice that you'd give to parents of a young ESTP (well I think my son is either an ESTP or ENTP; definitely Fe convergent & Ti authority)? As an ENFJ cousin re the ESTP I think we sometimes operate on a similar wavelength but other people can misconstrue his intentions, especially adults as he's a 'social pro' for his age & his Ni-Ti frameworks. I do feel like Ni-Ti/Ti-Ni as Harry said can be difficult to communicate...he's such a bright boy & we want the best for him, like most parents do 😊
@@AnyaAnnika67 Learn how to communicate clearly, and justify your reasons behind certain things, for example NEVER say "Because I said so." but rather give reasons for why you need them to do what you need them to do. Be very open and receptive and forgiving about things, and they'll be honest with you. If you're extremely strict, they're going to break the rules anyway, and they just won't tell you and can get themselves into trouble. Treat them not so much as a kid, but as a normal human who you can explain things to, once they're older than 8 years or so. All of this would've saved me and my parents quite the headache when I was younger. They were strict, so I rebelled, and I was extremely good at hiding things because I needed to.
Finally a video doing this type justice. I’m an INFJ married to an ESTP and am amazed by his brilliance every day. Truly an underrated and one of the most stereotyped types.
I just figured out I'm an ESTP and I'm delighted that you have some content released about us THANK YOUUUUU!!!! I love your clear and precise communication method. It's hard to find high quality in-depth stuff on ESTPs out there and I appreciate you for making some.
After extensively researching all things typology and typing myself multiple different ways, I’ve finally arrived at ESTP! I appreciate this break down that goes beyond some of the stereotypes that prevented me from considering this type. Thank you!
Is there any advice you'd give to a parent of a young ESTP (well he's definitely Fe agency & Ti authority). I feel like he's misconstrued a lot of the time & due to him being a 'social pro' ie socially advanced for his age I often think people forget how young he actually is. Maybe I'm just a parent over worrying 😊. He's exceptionally bright & needs a lot of stimulation to keep his brain ticking over...it's tiring work! The razor sharp wit is definitely something we've picked up on but people don't always take it too well even though he's a popular boy.
Society, neglectful parents, and bullying suppressed my extroversion right out of me. I do exercise a lot now, play music and outdoors hobbies, but social situations with people I'm not close to is always a struggle. I guess mental illness and trauma just won't allow my Fe to work, or maybe that feeds it. I still am the life of the party with my close friends and there is no anxiety there. But random aquantencies or strangers, forget it. I freeze in that scenario and don't say a word. It sucks.
Your not alone.. What saved me was Fi becoming aware that I have values. I dressed the way I wanted to, not what others like. I cared less about what other thought and became more apt at talking to strangers
@@darth6129 ENFJ here. I can utterly relate to the trauma rigidly restricting my Fe. I had delved into Se as a coping mechanism, the part about continuous anxiety and feeling unsafe is also acute. Take care, fellow ESTP. You're not forrlorn here, and as I observe you've accomplished a lot by admitting and addressing the issue. Our brains are adaptable and pliant, take responsibility of that by your astuteness and boldness. I sincerely believe in you, as my own experience proves that the change is possible. Sometimes it is inevitable. You got it
Estp, your NiTi Section just taught me why I feel a certain disconnect with myself and everyone else. Having to translate internally before translating again externally often loses the essence of what I even started with. So much data and life experience is tied below the surface of niti matrix things just come out so wrong but when leaning on it without explanation I always do come out on top. Just makes relationships to myself and others difficult. I must be a trip to people lol
This video is extremely profound and enlightening, particularly for me as an ENTP, to gain a more informed and nuanced insight into an otherwise underrepresented type within the community. Well done, and I have a lot to reflect on. 😌
You've described my ESTP father perfectly. I'm not even going to explain why because your video descriptions and signs were SO accurate. Every single word. Thank you for your insight and research! - ESFJ
My boyfriend is an ESTP and I'm always amazed at what he can do when he puts his mind to it despite the chaos around him. He is a bit jaded, but he's never let that get to a toxic place. As an ENFP he has helped me ground when my feelings go scattered without making feel inferior. I love the ESTP type. He does fit the stereotype of always being up for a good time.😊 Thank you for this video, I feel like I understand him a little more.
Thank you so much for this! I've been contemplating whether I type as an ESTP. Most of the sources I'm reading are very stereotypical. I've watched other videos with explanations I could relate to, but it felt like they were trying to jam it down my throat. It's irritating, makes you question the intentions of these sources. "I don't believe any type is limited in what they can achieve, but have noticed sensationalist attitudes and internet trends propagating a culture in which type-development is actively discouraged in favour of conforming to simplistic archetypes." and for that you got yourself a new subscriber! 😎 *Putting this down for personal research. 5 Signs You're Actually An ESTP Sign. 1: SeFe Dominance You engage with external reality in an intense manner. The wat you engage socially is precise and often fast-paced. Sign. 2: Fe Novelty You are easily bored in social situations, enacting novelty in order to 'liven things up' and socialising more to get stimulation for the sake of communal belonging. Sign. 3: Holistic Logic You think more in terms of logical shapes and 'common tones', in a more musical manner based on frequences. Your logiccal process is non-sequential, often hard to put into words, sometimes causing you to keep it to yourself lest you be misunderstood. Sign. 4: NiTi Matrix You navigate life probabilistically, turning chaos into opportunity. You double-down on a signle model of reality, illuminating any loop holes it contains. Sign. 5: The Ti Authority You tend to take up the mantle of the protection and preservation of truth and logic. Your pressure points tend to be around logical inconsistency, hypocrisy, and thoughtlessness. Also, That “…moody, withdrawn, and cynical. Those would be many of the ESTP’s in this community typing themselves as INTPs for some strange reason.” got me. I'm constantly typed as INTP when I do those online tests - perhaps it's that Ti Dominance? So far, I've hopped around being: ENTJ, ISTP, ISTJ, ISFP, and now: ESTP. Idk how I ended seeing myself in all those types. It's just that every time I do some introspection in reference to those types, I end up being left with more questions than answers. Still trying to understand the NiFi blindspot. Not gonna lie, as much as I like nerding out like this, I feel like my brain is getting fried. 😵💫
Dude. This is genius. I have an ESTP best friend. And I had him typed as an ENFJ for the longest time. But you just dropped some golden tidbits that opened my mind. Thank you.
I consistently typed INTP and ENTP until some people who had a better understanding of the system than me typed me as an ESTP. Objective personality has me as an ESTJ. Finding my type and being comfortable with it has been something I’ve struggled with for many many years. So I appreciate a lot of what you said during this video. Thank you.
I'm currently in the process of typing myself and had considerations of me being ENFJ, ISFP and ISTP. After this video however, I feel like ESTP might be added on the list of possible types. I figured out my Se-Ni/Ni-Se axis for sure, what I struggle with is my codec axis. The thing you mentioned about turning chaos into opportunity really clicked with me. I often find myself improvising at school while, for example, writing an essay (I'm a 15 year old who got really into psychology and discovering myself) in the present moment, while being informed by a general, abstract framework of reality and society. I was a fan of your content for a year at this point and loved it all the way so far, even got the CPT e-book, which is helping me to understand the Fi-Fe dominance difference (I'm pretty sure I'm Fe/Fi convergent, however, I related to what you said about ISTPs) I just want to thank you for the content you create and the things you helped me realize about personality and cognition! Take care!
Have you checked out IDR labs? Honestly I don't think typing yourself at such a young age is very accurate or useful tbh. Your personality isn't even developed or experienced enough to be apparent until around the same time your neuroplasticity crystalizes, which is around 24-26. And trust me you will notice when that time comes, the intergration/formation makes you feel, kinda old and self aware. For now I really do believe that sort of self analysis will just hinder the joys and benefits of being young and free. P.S I think I know your type :) Feel free to take my unsolicited opinion/advice with a grain of salt like you I find this stuff extremely interesting.
@@Dizmal0ne About the typing, I would say that it helped me understand that I have a passion for people and psychology, and that I have an intense interest in personality. While having other interests like gaming and drawing, this one fulfills the analytical part of me. However in the last months I was slowly moving away from having a strong attachment to it. I felt like I was putting too much of my identity into a type and decided to attempt to treat it in a less attached manner. (btw sounds like something ISFPs with their FiNi would say) Even though I disagree with your point of this self analysis hindering the joys of being young (actually its one of the things keeping me going), I really do respect your opinion and think that I should actually take some notes from it. I'm definitely planning to revisit this interest for self-exploration at the age you adviced me to! Also, can you please give your perspective on what type I might be, I'd love some food for thought!
@@MysticWizardMan Cool mate! I get what you mean and totally relate. You didn't answer my question though, so casually try IDRlabs "Jung Type Test" without putting too much thought into it and tell me what it reckons.
@@Dizmal0ne Okay, so, I have taken the test and the results are: Mixed Results Ne: 59% Ni: 76% Se: 31% Si: 43% Te: 43% Ti: 31% Fe: 76% Fi: 63% However, I want to note that I answered a lot of questions with the middle option because of "it depends" Now, I'd like to hear your thoughts on my type!
I too refer to an ESTP that I know as chaotic and he refers to himself as an agent of chaos. Very spot on description that I have seen from my INFJ lens. They're very adept at knowing who they can be punchy and or jokey with, who might need to be brought back into the social atmosphere (the loners), and I have experienced them sometimes going to others to verify information for their Ti at times. They feel like sandpaper but they're great at smoothing out the jagged parts in others or pointing out areas where others could benefit from going with their own chaos, rather than perpetually resisting it. A thoughtful type indeed.
Just to say I really appreciated your nuanced description of ESTPs. I'm an ENFJ mum to an ESTP son (definitely Fe agency & Ti authority) & he's a handful but delightful at the same time. I think the thoughtfulness of the type can get over looked a lot of the time; we vibe in our holistic logical thinking. I sometimes think he's been dealt a harsh hand as he's socially advanced for his age probably, in part, owing to his Se-Fe & his teachers forget that he's much younger than he actually is...he's still running rings around everyone though 😂
5:47 “a symbolic portrayal of a logical principle..for example comparing a general life pattern to a principle in quantum mechanics” THIS. I used the principle of entropy and spontaneity in chemistry as a 10th grader (and my whole life) to try to explain how life is just natural going towards chaos but there needs to be an opposing force to control it. OH. My. Goodness. This explains so much.
This description is such a nice picture of Se as a cognitive function. It is very attuned to the external, as you said frequently chaotic, reality that Se dominants users wish to exert their will upon and restrain its messy effects by "forcing" the untidiness into state of a total submission. From the outside, it is a force to be reckoned with and its essence can be incredibly intimidating and intense.
Been annoyed with the typology community lately, but my goodness does this video fill me with more hope. I pibe the nuance and appreciation for the various interplay of functions. 👏 Hard relate as an ESTP with the Ni-Ti, btw.
Can you give any advice to a parent of a young ESTP? I'm an ENFJ & we vibe very well on the Ni-Ti lingo but I don't think a lot of other people necessarily understand us lol. He's also, given that he's such a 'social pro' for his age, given a lot of expectations by his teachers & I often think they forget how young he is; he's still running rings around everyone 😂. I guess I just want the best for him - he's definitely a Mummy's boy!
@@AnyaAnnika67 let him fail and learn hard consequences (for the small things, obviously). That’s my advice! It’ll help develop healthier Ti/Fe, knowing when to slow down and be principled and when to be a charmer. I got in a lot of small trouble, but not big trouble, as i figured out what I could get away with and what I couldn’t. Enfjs are great, btw. One of my best friends is one :).
Very insightful video. Nice to see a type illuminated beyond the obvious Se dominant stereotypes. The Estps I know have a lot of depth to their personality
"mistakes are okay as long as they make sense given the availability of information" I find this funny as just today I was reflecting on why I don't find some kinds of Si/Ne jokes or limericks funny at all and I realized this happens if I know the people making them know they're not true, they don't extend reality, they are not a twist on reality, they are plain false affirmations, should any false affirmation be considered funny now because it's not true or.. anyway, thank you so much for this video, I was looking forward to it, truly insightful, and, in true probabilistic fashion, I won't lock in on my type yet, I am still pondering over ESTP/ENFJ, although I identified with all the points, it's a bit uncanny really. thanks!
Dude, that straight up pisses me off - when people tell straight up lies, unironically, as “jokes”. It’s gaslighting and it isn’t cute. Those things come from arrogant fools as far as I can tell.
Bro I grew up in an academic environment that was really competitive and full of expectations to me so I spent good two years thinking I was an xNTJ (half a year later after getting into mbti I was like “yeah no I’m an extrovert”) and now I discovered it was a social mask and I’m actually an ESTP. Crazy how childhood can affect not only how others see you but how you see yourself. I mean I’m clearly not an INTJ, I get bitches.
“…moody, withdrawn, and cynical. Those would be many of the ESTP’s in this community typing themselves as INTPs for some strange reason.” I feel so called out right now.
Me too - typed by CPT as a divergent ENFJ. I considered myself an INTP at one point probably because my Fe Ti axis is particularly fluid. I'm definitely moody, withdrawn and cynical 😂
Super stoked you finally put out stuff for ESTP. Loved listening to your take on personalities to help find my type but the more I suspected I was ESTP, I couldn’t find any info from your channel on them. Looking forward to more!
Thank you. I discovered that I'm an ESTP today actually. ESTP - 9w8 963 sp/sx. I had a very hard time typing myself because I couldn't view myself objectively, I didn't know what I was or wasn't. But now I see how I ACTUALLY act in situations after years of thinking. You mentioned the loss of personality and that is so true. I feel like who I am is how I act in the moment and for a long time I was very down and unmotivated. But now I walk 10km every day and I feel great again, I understand myself and I know my walls and the confidence to break through them.
Looking forward to more content about ESTP, which is an amazing but very misunderstood type in my opinion. Can't wait for individual videos about ISTJ and ISFP. I feel like these two types need more deeper understanding.
After being mistyped by myself and others, several times, finally figured out, I am an ESTP, and Im female, which made it all the more complicated to be accurately typed. Great video!
I'm so happy!!! I was waiting for this video, this type specifically and their specific cognitive functions applications! With this one, all 16 types have at least an entirely dedicated video or share a video with another type in your channel, if I'm not mistaken. Great, organized content as always!
As a ENTP I have to say I work really well with ESTP, we both have the stamina to get hard shit done, and I can handle there rage when stuff goes wrong, sometimes I wish they listened to my forecasts/ideas to save some hassles or fix an issue before or immediately rather than rely on there expertise and troubleshooting. They're the only Engineers that can handle the chaos and fast pace. Also they're a ally if we're in a social situation, whenever we're just in the same room there is an unspoken understanding, and I appreciate there eye contact, subtle vocal hints smart Fe use. I love there cool enthusiasm and explanations and respect there skills, they actually like the cool stuff I show them too, and give balanced responses to my wacky ideas.
What happens if a person is unable to use their dominant functions due to some sort of accident. Si user gets amnesia and can't remember things, Se user gets a physical disability, the football user who can no longer play, or T-dom gets brain damage, etc.. How would the person behave and how would the other functions compensate?
Absolutely. I thought the ESTP was an unthinking type, similar to wild animal, focused on getting approval via physical achievements or presence. Now I understand, my disagreeable, boring, analytic, and self destructive nature doesn't contradict at all the basis of the type! i read about a concept the other day, 'antagonistic Pleiotropy', and I thought 'damn, that's why estps are so uncommon, they have the social skills of a woman, and are more likely to reproduce for that reason, but their descendants tend to be XNFJs'.
I always self typed as ENTP but OPS typed me as ESTP which makes much more sense. The stereotype that Se first is some sort of skateboarding / mountain climber never fit me for and I always assumed my logical / intuitive bent came from Ne. The shadow Fi is a difficult one. The feeling is of not having a sufficiently developed identity, and inability to align completely to different groups and perspectives. We can find the good and bad in each one without becoming a zealot of any path. The flip side is sometimes becoming a zealot is important for the long term investment in an identity or project without which the ESTP will lose interest. As I’ve grown in my type Fi has also become more sensitive and I feel myself valuing the softer side of life more than I did when I was younger. It was certainly the key to development and become a well rounded person. It also smooths out the rough edges of an otherwise highly weaponised mind that can concurrently build intuitive models and slice up logical fallacies.
Everything you just said here sounds like me. Especially the part about Fi struggles. It feels like my whole life has been a giant identity crisis that I never resolved. I’ve explored many different subcultures and interests to try to figure myself out but I always either came up short or got bored
I can relate somewhat as an ENFJ albeit more so with Fi-Si as opposed to Fi-Ni. Prior to being typed by CPT I'd always considered myself a 'thinking' type due to my allegiance to logic albeit that does fit within the Fe-Ti axis (mines 50/50).
My husband of 16 years is a FANTASTIC, confident, charismatic and sweet, ENTP! He is seen as argumentative and righteous and a go getter, who started his own successful business. He doesn’t care what people think about him and says what he means and what he thinks. His brutal honesty but deeply caring and moralistic nature is what I admire the most. I have never really seen him rattled or look nervous. I am an overly emotional, spoilt, dreamy, moralistic, flighty and deeply thoughtful ENFP! I think it is touted that our personality match is not a great mix, but we work fantastically! We are each others ying to our yang! I liken him to Donald Trump, with a wink wink! And me to Kate Bush! Extra wink wink! An underrated dream team - very different, but quite the same in our convictions. I’ve just found this channel and love it already! Refreshing! Thank you!
One year later and I'd enjoy a Matrix video. Sometimes, I can almost see a very thin line between fabricated reality and what exists all around us. My head feels clear when I get out in nature, and I understand the traps society sets to distract us. Anyway it's hard to fully explain what I mean, but I think you can follow my thoughts. When you explained why we mistype as INTP, that was very validating. Thank you!
You know, Harry. I've been coming up with a theory related to statistics and personality for a while now, and why there are so many misstypes in this community. And it has to do with a specific question: is it valid to believe that convergent thinkers like INTP and ENTJ move away from MBTI due to lack of creative freedom to conjecture? Considering a community capable of lynching those who don't follow the rules of Jung and Myers-Briggs, mainly. What do you think of this?
INTPs can be a mixed back there as they often also seek to preserve knowledge, but I have found ENTJs and INFJs have a greater tendency to form their own 'takes', so would fit your hypothesis more than the Ti dominants.
@@CognitivePersonality DID I HEAR DATA? So you have DATA collection?! Oh my god, what a wonderful thing. I thought for a moment that you were just trying to build something (somewhat separate) that best represented each type. Even if they are minimal or fallacious, or maybe even break some logic, like Bayes' Theorem (I don't know if you know it) (I'm not assuming you do any of that). Rare. I appreciate that. Congratulations.
Well done! Very good work! I absolutely love that you speak slower then you used to. It was a pleasure listening to you, this time. I have also just subscribed..
I like to think of the 1st/3rd functions as swords and the 2nd/4th functions as shields, I wish I could “attack” the world with my Se like I can my Ni 😂😂😂 90% of my problems wouldn’t exist. - INFJ
Little regard for ... social exchange. .. etc. That's one of the things that kept throwing me off. I would think I sound "just like" this type except ... and the except was either that they loved small talk and talking about feelings all day long or they hated it. And, hate it if it is all day long or without reason- the gooshy "We need to talk" sort of talks, that is - but I love the sort of talk where you meet up with friends at a diner or just kick back and chill at home, or , go out dancing or whatever. But, I also need the deeper stuff. Not the gooshier, more overly sensitive stuff. No. Just leave my life if you are going to not give me a logical reason or simply say "I don't know. I felt mad so I acted like a jerk." Because, my goodness, everybody has themselves some trauma or angst. Let's have pizza and beer, and talk about them, instead.Though, not for around a year from now.
I've been waiting all month for this haha! Fantastic video as always. I am quite certain I am an ENF-T but I relate to a lot of this... only in certain situations, though. You've mentioned before how the ENF-T can use SeFe in certain scenarios which I relate to often. Yet I wonder how it differs from ESF-T's SeFe? The only way I could discern myself from this video was because I am certain I use way more NiFi than SiFi, but still it's always good to have clarification. Could a possible "ESTP vs ENTP" video be on its way? Love your content, Harry!
SeFe gateway tends to be fast and reactive, and has a harder quality to it. NeFe by contrast, regardless of Se dip, is very intentional and works more deterministically (like a music conductor) to shape the social landscape. SiTi logic is a lot more algorithmic and computational than NiTi also!
Love the spray paint analogy! Like some other people, for me that was great timing as well since I have recently worked with it. So, I can relate both metaphorically and physically :) I suspect myself to be an ENFP, yet I wonder how I can see myself in those descriptions. I'm not sure if you remember but I had asked you a few times how I can develop my Fe. After some time it just developed on its own and now I see too much haha. But I like it more than when I didn't! Specifically, I find myself predicting how certain social things could affect certain people and how any given room can feel by me saying something. That seems weird because if I'm an ENFP, I should be an intuitive thinker, not feeler. Is this possible for an ENFP? I also find myself relating more and more to INFJs just as much, if not, more than I relate to the ESTP. When will the ENFP subtypes video come out, if I may ask? I suspect that I may be an ambivert. I understand that you have a life outside TH-cam but I would love to have a conversation with you. I can imagine that we would have a conversation I can't have with most people.
I spent the majority of my life thinking I do not get bored, because, well, I do not get bored in the way that most people I know get bored when they say "I am so bored." which is usually folllowed by or entirely expressed as "There is nothing to do." Generally, there is always something to do- think, sing, feel, paint, write, exercise, work, something. But, recently, I remembered a few times when I just couldn't take it anymore, and I was bored, bored, bored ... not because there was nothing to do but because life was being so staid and predictable, and nothing was a surprise. No one was doing or saying anything that was not to be expected of them. Criminals committing crime in the usual way, reporters reporting the same, the police saying the same things to the criminals and slapping on the same handcuffs. People walking down the street, observing and making the same comments about the same things, wearing the same sort of clothes and makeup as usual and relieving their own boredom in the same conformist manner they always had. One time, I did something that was energetically criminal and dexterous, to the point that the observing police officer simply said he would report it all in some other way altogether as he didn't know how to write it up. And, thusly was everyone's boredom relieved for a small time. Weirdly, no one ever mentioned it to me again. None of the people I was walking with, no one in my family was ever told - unless, maybe I told them, later, and it was one of the things they had decided I was either lying about or insane for thinking happened- and no one whose property sustained damage ever complained or sought recompense. I was treated somewhat more deferentially by some people and challenged more by others. Which was, more or less, the same way things always go.
I love your videos, but this one was hard to hear because the volume was too low... I'm sorry, don't mean to be rude, it's just honest feedback. Many insights on this great personality! Have a wonderful day! 😄
Did you think there's the potential for a lot of conflict with Fi authority types? I've noticed this with my ESTP son & fiancé who's an Fi authority type
This may sound ridiculous to some, but I would love to hear your perspective on being potentially mistyped between INFJ and ESTP. Is it even reasonable that this should be a difficult axis?
Honestly the latter type can mistype as literally anything. If there's a range between most and least likely mistypes, INFJ would be in the middle I'd say
I really like your content. Sadly, I wasn't able to find any videos you made about ENFJs. I would really love to hear your thoughts about my personality type.
I know this video is not about INFJ but it’s your newest video so I hope I get a reaction. Sometimes I want things in my benefit and want things the easiest way, not allways life is never black and white like that, but am I still an INFJ for that.
Which test did you take? You could be on the right lines re you've narrowed down the 'right' functions so that leaves you with 4 cognitive types. As a typed ENFJ I was pretty sure despite 'appearances' that I used Ni,Fe and Ti but wasn't certain of Se probably due to stereotypes and being a divergent subtype.
@@AnyaAnnika67 Emma! I found you! I’m the idiot who was WRONG a week ago in a comment on another channel! I just clicked on Harry’s newest video and… I was immediately humbled to see that he was lining up cognition similar to Jung! I have no idea why I thought otherwise - I watched his old videos on ENTPs especially… I don’t know why I thought differently! Anyway - YEA, I’m an idiot! I’m embarrassed by how stupid my comment was and I wanted to apologize for being arrogant! I was just wondering how the hell I was going to find you and apologize… this is wild. I was meant to call myself an idiot to your face! 😂😂 Anyway, please forgive me, ma’am!
@@AnyaAnnika67 HI! I took the truity test! I've taken so many though and I've gotten multiple results. How do I really test my cognitive functions whilst only incorporating emotions when needed? Espt and Infj really fluctuate for me and I notice I get espt more when I think about work or how I connect to people when I'm around them vs how I think about them when I'm alone. Idk 😭 I've gotten INFJ more dominantly than ESPT but I've also gotten INFP as well.
@@TarzanHedgepethno need to apologise although it's greatly appreciated 😊. I have great difficulty admitting when I'm wrong so kudos to you, I'm truly humbled 😊
Do you have any videos about ESFJs planned? I think I am one but the type is very misunderstood. Also how can you tell the difference between ESFJ & ENTP?
This video and what it brings is GREAT, but I can often barely understand what word he is saying 🥺😔 and why he pronounce R like a W in every word? Maybe it's accent I never heard before, but I'm sad because his content is very good.
I was 30 seconds in, and already went to twitter while playing the background cause idk. But bro just has way too many words. Can someone give me a TLDR lmao.

If you're extremely strict, they're going to break the rules anyway, and they just won't tell you and can get themselves into trouble. Treat them not so much as a kid, but as a normal human who you can explain things to, once they're older than 8 years or so. All of this would've saved me and my parents quite the headache when I was younger. They were strict, so I rebelled, and I was extremely good at hiding things because I needed to.
Man, I've been repeatedly made fun of in groups for my "mystical logic" and my abstract thinking causes people to think I'm just crazy.
Finally a video doing this type justice. I’m an INFJ married to an ESTP and am amazed by his brilliance every day. Truly an underrated and one of the most stereotyped types.
I just figured out I'm an ESTP and I'm delighted that you have some content released about us THANK YOUUUUU!!!! I love your clear and precise communication method. It's hard to find high quality in-depth stuff on ESTPs out there and I appreciate you for making some.
It's my pleasure!
After extensively researching all things typology and typing myself multiple different ways, I’ve finally arrived at ESTP! I appreciate this break down that goes beyond some of the stereotypes that prevented me from considering this type.
Thank you!
Is there any advice you'd give to a parent of a young ESTP (well he's definitely Fe agency & Ti authority). I feel like he's misconstrued a lot of the time & due to him being a 'social pro' ie socially advanced for his age I often think people forget how young he actually is. Maybe I'm just a parent over worrying 😊. He's exceptionally bright & needs a lot of stimulation to keep his brain ticking over...it's tiring work! The razor sharp wit is definitely something we've picked up on but people don't always take it too well even though he's a popular boy.
Society, neglectful parents, and bullying suppressed my extroversion right out of me. I do exercise a lot now, play music and outdoors hobbies, but social situations with people I'm not close to is always a struggle. I guess mental illness and trauma just won't allow my Fe to work, or maybe that feeds it. I still am the life of the party with my close friends and there is no anxiety there. But random aquantencies or strangers, forget it. I freeze in that scenario and don't say a word. It sucks.
Your not alone.. What saved me was Fi becoming aware that I have values. I dressed the way I wanted to, not what others like. I cared less about what other thought and became more apt at talking to strangers
@@darth6129 ENFJ here. I can utterly relate to the trauma rigidly restricting my Fe. I had delved into Se as a coping mechanism, the part about continuous anxiety and feeling unsafe is also acute.
Take care, fellow ESTP. You're not forrlorn here, and as I observe you've accomplished a lot by admitting and addressing the issue. Our brains are adaptable and pliant, take responsibility of that by your astuteness and boldness. I sincerely believe in you, as my own experience proves that the change is possible. Sometimes it is inevitable. You got it
@@JeanCharest-g8u thank you
@@darth6129 where there's a will, there's a way
Estp, your NiTi Section just taught me why I feel a certain disconnect with myself and everyone else. Having to translate internally before translating again externally often loses the essence of what I even started with. So much data and life experience is tied below the surface of niti matrix things just come out so wrong but when leaning on it without explanation I always do come out on top. Just makes relationships to myself and others difficult. I must be a trip to people lol
Totally feeling this as an ENFJ...now I have my ESTPs son Ni-Ti to contend with as well lol...eh well at least we understand each other! 😂
This video is extremely profound and enlightening, particularly for me as an ENTP, to gain a more informed and nuanced insight into an otherwise underrepresented type within the community.
Well done, and I have a lot to reflect on. 😌
I was just lamenting that you didn’t have any ESTP videos and then this popped up in my search results😂 what timing!
Haha, nice!
Dude same
You just destroyed CSJ
You've described my ESTP father perfectly. I'm not even going to explain why because your video descriptions and signs were SO accurate. Every single word. Thank you for your insight and research!
- ESFJ
My boyfriend is an ESTP and I'm always amazed at what he can do when he puts his mind to it despite the chaos around him. He is a bit jaded, but he's never let that get to a toxic place. As an ENFP he has helped me ground when my feelings go scattered without making feel inferior. I love the ESTP type. He does fit the stereotype of always being up for a good time.😊 Thank you for this video, I feel like I understand him a little more.
Thank you so much for this! I've been contemplating whether I type as an ESTP. Most of the sources I'm reading are very stereotypical. I've watched other videos with explanations I could relate to, but it felt like they were trying to jam it down my throat. It's irritating, makes you question the intentions of these sources.
"I don't believe any type is limited in what they can achieve, but have noticed sensationalist attitudes and internet trends propagating a culture in which type-development is actively discouraged in favour of conforming to simplistic archetypes." and for that you got yourself a new subscriber! 😎
*Putting this down for personal research.
5 Signs You're Actually An ESTP
Sign. 1: SeFe Dominance
You engage with external reality in an intense manner.
The wat you engage socially is precise and often fast-paced.
Sign. 2: Fe Novelty
You are easily bored in social situations, enacting novelty in order to 'liven things up' and socialising more to get stimulation for the sake of communal belonging.
Sign. 3: Holistic Logic
You think more in terms of logical shapes and 'common tones', in a more musical manner based on frequences.
Your logiccal process is non-sequential, often hard to put into words, sometimes causing you to keep it to yourself lest you be misunderstood.
Sign. 4: NiTi Matrix
You navigate life probabilistically, turning chaos into opportunity.
You double-down on a signle model of reality, illuminating any loop holes it contains.
Sign. 5: The Ti Authority
You tend to take up the mantle of the protection and preservation of truth and logic.
Your pressure points tend to be around logical inconsistency, hypocrisy, and thoughtlessness.
Also,
That “…moody, withdrawn, and cynical. Those would be many of the ESTP’s in this community typing themselves as INTPs for some strange reason.” got me.
I'm constantly typed as INTP when I do those online tests - perhaps it's that Ti Dominance?
So far, I've hopped around being: ENTJ, ISTP, ISTJ, ISFP, and now: ESTP. Idk how I ended seeing myself in all those types. It's just that every time I do some introspection in reference to those types, I end up being left with more questions than answers.
Still trying to understand the NiFi blindspot. Not gonna lie, as much as I like nerding out like this, I feel like my brain is getting fried. 😵💫
Nice color added to the backdrop, also, I like how you broke this one down- easy to follow. Great work. Excited to see one exclusive to the ISTPs! ;)
Thank you! And ISTP coming up!
Dude. This is genius. I have an ESTP best friend. And I had him typed as an ENFJ for the longest time. But you just dropped some golden tidbits that opened my mind. Thank you.
I consistently typed INTP and ENTP until some people who had a better understanding of the system than me typed me as an ESTP. Objective personality has me as an ESTJ. Finding my type and being comfortable with it has been something I’ve struggled with for many many years. So I appreciate a lot of what you said during this video. Thank you.
I'm currently in the process of typing myself and had considerations of me being ENFJ, ISFP and ISTP. After this video however, I feel like ESTP might be added on the list of possible types. I figured out my Se-Ni/Ni-Se axis for sure, what I struggle with is my codec axis. The thing you mentioned about turning chaos into opportunity really clicked with me. I often find myself improvising at school while, for example, writing an essay (I'm a 15 year old who got really into psychology and discovering myself) in the present moment, while being informed by a general, abstract framework of reality and society.
I was a fan of your content for a year at this point and loved it all the way so far, even got the CPT e-book, which is helping me to understand the Fi-Fe dominance difference (I'm pretty sure I'm Fe/Fi convergent, however, I related to what you said about ISTPs) I just want to thank you for the content you create and the things you helped me realize about personality and cognition! Take care!
Have you checked out IDR labs? Honestly I don't think typing yourself at such a young age is very accurate or useful tbh. Your personality isn't even developed or experienced enough to be apparent until around the same time your neuroplasticity crystalizes, which is around 24-26. And trust me you will notice when that time comes, the intergration/formation makes you feel, kinda old and self aware. For now I really do believe that sort of self analysis will just hinder the joys and benefits of being young and free.
P.S I think I know your type :) Feel free to take my unsolicited opinion/advice with a grain of salt like you I find this stuff extremely interesting.
@@Dizmal0ne About the typing, I would say that it helped me understand that I have a passion for people and psychology, and that I have an intense interest in personality. While having other interests like gaming and drawing, this one fulfills the analytical part of me. However in the last months I was slowly moving away from having a strong attachment to it. I felt like I was putting too much of my identity into a type and decided to attempt to treat it in a less attached manner. (btw sounds like something ISFPs with their FiNi would say) Even though I disagree with your point of this self analysis hindering the joys of being young (actually its one of the things keeping me going), I really do respect your opinion and think that I should actually take some notes from it. I'm definitely planning to revisit this interest for self-exploration at the age you adviced me to! Also, can you please give your perspective on what type I might be, I'd love some food for thought!
@@MysticWizardMan Cool mate! I get what you mean and totally relate. You didn't answer my question though, so casually try IDRlabs "Jung Type Test" without putting too much thought into it and tell me what it reckons.
@@Dizmal0ne Okay, so, I have taken the test and the results are:
Mixed Results
Ne: 59%
Ni: 76%
Se: 31%
Si: 43%
Te: 43%
Ti: 31%
Fe: 76%
Fi: 63%
However, I want to note that I answered a lot of questions with the middle option because of "it depends"
Now, I'd like to hear your thoughts on my type!
@@MysticWizardMan was meaning this one /test.php
I too refer to an ESTP that I know as chaotic and he refers to himself as an agent of chaos. Very spot on description that I have seen from my INFJ lens. They're very adept at knowing who they can be punchy and or jokey with, who might need to be brought back into the social atmosphere (the loners), and I have experienced them sometimes going to others to verify information for their Ti at times. They feel like sandpaper but they're great at smoothing out the jagged parts in others or pointing out areas where others could benefit from going with their own chaos, rather than perpetually resisting it. A thoughtful type indeed.
Just to say I really appreciated your nuanced description of ESTPs. I'm an ENFJ mum to an ESTP son (definitely Fe agency & Ti authority) & he's a handful but delightful at the same time. I think the thoughtfulness of the type can get over looked a lot of the time; we vibe in our holistic logical thinking. I sometimes think he's been dealt a harsh hand as he's socially advanced for his age probably, in part, owing to his Se-Fe & his teachers forget that he's much younger than he actually is...he's still running rings around everyone though 😂
@@AnyaAnnika67 Thank you!

“a symbolic portrayal of a logical principle..for example comparing a general life pattern to a principle in quantum mechanics”
THIS.
I used the principle of entropy and spontaneity in chemistry as a 10th grader (and my whole life) to try to explain how life is just natural going towards chaos but there needs to be an opposing force to control it. OH. My. Goodness.
This explains so much.
This description is such a nice picture of Se as a cognitive function. It is very attuned to the external, as you said frequently chaotic, reality that Se dominants users wish to exert their will upon and restrain its messy effects by "forcing" the untidiness into state of a total submission. From the outside, it is a force to be reckoned with and its essence can be incredibly intimidating and intense.
Been annoyed with the typology community lately, but my goodness does this video fill me with more hope. I pibe the nuance and appreciation for the various interplay of functions. 👏
Hard relate as an ESTP with the Ni-Ti, btw.
Can you give any advice to a parent of a young ESTP? I'm an ENFJ & we vibe very well on the Ni-Ti lingo but I don't think a lot of other people necessarily understand us lol. He's also, given that he's such a 'social pro' for his age, given a lot of expectations by his teachers & I often think they forget how young he is; he's still running rings around everyone 😂. I guess I just want the best for him - he's definitely a Mummy's boy!
@@AnyaAnnika67 let him fail and learn hard consequences (for the small things, obviously). That’s my advice! It’ll help develop healthier Ti/Fe, knowing when to slow down and be principled and when to be a charmer. I got in a lot of small trouble, but not big trouble, as i figured out what I could get away with and what I couldn’t. Enfjs are great, btw. One of my best friends is one :).
Some days ago I was rewatching ISTP videos and thinking when you’d touch on xSTP types. Great video, as always! Thank you very much
Thank you!!
Impressive depth of understanding on the actual cognition of the types brother.. keep up the great work!
Very insightful video. Nice to see a type illuminated beyond the obvious Se dominant stereotypes. The Estps I know have a lot of depth to their personality
Just when I thought I could settle on my type Harry releases a new video.
Lord i've never clicked so fast 🤣
Can't wait to dive into it and i'm glad you're back! ☺️
Thank you! Taking longer breaks between videos for my studies but always good to be back
"mistakes are okay as long as they make sense given the availability of information" I find this funny as just today I was reflecting on why I don't find some kinds of Si/Ne jokes or limericks funny at all and I realized this happens if I know the people making them know they're not true, they don't extend reality, they are not a twist on reality, they are plain false affirmations, should any false affirmation be considered funny now because it's not true or..
anyway, thank you so much for this video, I was looking forward to it, truly insightful, and, in true probabilistic fashion, I won't lock in on my type yet, I am still pondering over ESTP/ENFJ, although I identified with all the points, it's a bit uncanny really. thanks!
Dude, that straight up pisses me off - when people tell straight up lies, unironically, as “jokes”. It’s gaslighting and it isn’t cute. Those things come from arrogant fools as far as I can tell.
I'm honestly puzzled. Can you elaborate on how "jokes" that don't extend the functioning reality cause your anger to increase so significantly? 😅
Bro I grew up in an academic environment that was really competitive and full of expectations to me so I spent good two years thinking I was an xNTJ (half a year later after getting into mbti I was like “yeah no I’m an extrovert”) and now I discovered it was a social mask and I’m actually an ESTP. Crazy how childhood can affect not only how others see you but how you see yourself. I mean I’m clearly not an INTJ, I get bitches.
“…moody, withdrawn, and cynical. Those would be many of the ESTP’s in this community typing themselves as INTPs for some strange reason.”
I feel so called out right now.
Me too - typed by CPT as a divergent ENFJ. I considered myself an INTP at one point probably because my Fe Ti axis is particularly fluid. I'm definitely moody, withdrawn and cynical 😂
I was typing myself along with about 15-20x taking mbti tests saying I'm INFP only lol
That part also hit me. Thought I might've been an ISFJ for a while, too, because I've been working on my Si. But I think ESTP fits too? 🤔
Super stoked you finally put out stuff for ESTP. Loved listening to your take on personalities to help find my type but the more I suspected I was ESTP, I couldn’t find any info from your channel on them. Looking forward to more!
Thank you. I discovered that I'm an ESTP today actually. ESTP - 9w8 963 sp/sx. I had a very hard time typing myself because I couldn't view myself objectively, I didn't know what I was or wasn't. But now I see how I ACTUALLY act in situations after years of thinking. You mentioned the loss of personality and that is so true. I feel like who I am is how I act in the moment and for a long time I was very down and unmotivated. But now I walk 10km every day and I feel great again, I understand myself and I know my walls and the confidence to break through them.
Looking forward to more content about ESTP, which is an amazing but very misunderstood type in my opinion. Can't wait for individual videos about ISTJ and ISFP. I feel like these two types need more deeper understanding.
Also real ESTPs can’t stand how low the volume of this video is
And the way he speak with a soft tone which bothers me (lol I'm sorry I didn't mean to be rude)
I saw the notification and I came running
After being mistyped by myself and others, several times, finally figured out, I am an ESTP, and Im female, which made it all the more complicated to be accurately typed. Great video!
I'm so happy!!! I was waiting for this video, this type specifically and their specific cognitive functions applications! With this one, all 16 types have at least an entirely dedicated video or share a video with another type in your channel, if I'm not mistaken.
Great, organized content as always!
As a ENTP I have to say I work really well with ESTP, we both have the stamina to get hard shit done, and I can handle there rage when stuff goes wrong, sometimes I wish they listened to my forecasts/ideas to save some hassles or fix an issue before or immediately rather than rely on there expertise and troubleshooting. They're the only Engineers that can handle the chaos and fast pace. Also they're a ally if we're in a social situation, whenever we're just in the same room there is an unspoken understanding, and I appreciate there eye contact, subtle vocal hints smart Fe use. I love there cool enthusiasm and explanations and respect there skills, they actually like the cool stuff I show them too, and give balanced responses to my wacky ideas.
What happens if a person is unable to use their dominant functions due to some sort of accident. Si user gets amnesia and can't remember things, Se user gets a physical disability, the football user who can no longer play, or T-dom gets brain damage, etc.. How would the person behave and how would the other functions compensate?
Absolutely. I thought the ESTP was an unthinking type, similar to wild animal, focused on getting approval via physical achievements or presence. Now I understand, my disagreeable, boring, analytic, and self destructive nature doesn't contradict at all the basis of the type!
i read about a concept the other day, 'antagonistic Pleiotropy', and I thought 'damn, that's why estps are so uncommon, they have the social skills of a woman, and are more likely to reproduce for that reason, but their descendants tend to be XNFJs'.
Amen!
I always self typed as ENTP but OPS typed me as ESTP which makes much more sense. The stereotype that Se first is some sort of skateboarding / mountain climber never fit me for and I always assumed my logical / intuitive bent came from Ne.
The shadow Fi is a difficult one. The feeling is of not having a sufficiently developed identity, and inability to align completely to different groups and perspectives. We can find the good and bad in each one without becoming a zealot of any path. The flip side is sometimes becoming a zealot is important for the long term investment in an identity or project without which the ESTP will lose interest.
As I’ve grown in my type Fi has also become more sensitive and I feel myself valuing the softer side of life more than I did when I was younger. It was certainly the key to development and become a well rounded person. It also smooths out the rough edges of an otherwise highly weaponised mind that can concurrently build intuitive models and slice up logical fallacies.
Everything you just said here sounds like me. Especially the part about Fi struggles. It feels like my whole life has been a giant identity crisis that I never resolved. I’ve explored many different subcultures and interests to try to figure myself out but I always either came up short or got bored
I can relate somewhat as an ENFJ albeit more so with Fi-Si as opposed to Fi-Ni. Prior to being typed by CPT I'd always considered myself a 'thinking' type due to my allegiance to logic albeit that does fit within the Fe-Ti axis (mines 50/50).
Can't wait for the Matrix personality typing video as well
Looking forward to when you post a video about the subtypes of the INTP!
My husband of 16 years is a FANTASTIC, confident, charismatic and sweet, ENTP! He is seen as argumentative and righteous and a go getter, who started his own successful business. He doesn’t care what people think about him and says what he means and what he thinks. His brutal honesty but deeply caring and moralistic nature is what I admire the most. I have never really seen him rattled or look nervous.
I am an overly emotional, spoilt, dreamy, moralistic, flighty and deeply thoughtful ENFP! I think it is touted that our personality match is not a great mix, but we work fantastically! We are each others ying to our yang! I liken him to Donald Trump, with a wink wink! And me to Kate Bush! Extra wink wink! An underrated dream team - very different, but quite the same in our convictions.
I’ve just found this channel and love it already! Refreshing! Thank you!
Just did the most ENFP thing and got my husbands type wrong… HA! He’s an ENTP!
I've known I'm an "estp" for years, but listening to you talk about my personality type makes me want to find more of us.
Hi ya Harry! Nice tips on deciphering the ESTP type. I hope that the studies are going well!
God I can't wait until you do "5 signs you're actually an ISTP"
One year later and I'd enjoy a Matrix video. Sometimes, I can almost see a very thin line between fabricated reality and what exists all around us. My head feels clear when I get out in nature, and I understand the traps society sets to distract us. Anyway it's hard to fully explain what I mean, but I think you can follow my thoughts. When you explained why we mistype as INTP, that was very validating. Thank you!
This is quite possibly the best assesment MBTI I have ever had.
Wow what an incredibly insightful video. From a former self-typed INTP haha.
You know, Harry. I've been coming up with a theory related to statistics and personality for a while now, and why there are so many misstypes in this community.
And it has to do with a specific question: is it valid to believe that convergent thinkers like INTP and ENTJ move away from MBTI due to lack of creative freedom to conjecture? Considering a community capable of lynching those who don't follow the rules of Jung and Myers-Briggs, mainly.
What do you think of this?
INTPs can be a mixed back there as they often also seek to preserve knowledge, but I have found ENTJs and INFJs have a greater tendency to form their own 'takes', so would fit your hypothesis more than the Ti dominants.
@@CognitivePersonality DID I HEAR DATA? So you have DATA collection?! Oh my god, what a wonderful thing.
I thought for a moment that you were just trying to build something (somewhat separate) that best represented each type.
Even if they are minimal or fallacious, or maybe even break some logic, like Bayes' Theorem (I don't know if you know it) (I'm not assuming you do any of that).
Rare. I appreciate that. Congratulations.
Well done! Very good work! I absolutely love that you speak slower then you used to. It was a pleasure listening to you, this time.
I have also just subscribed..
Yup this video just confirmed that I'm an estp. Thanks for the input
I like to think of the 1st/3rd functions as swords and the 2nd/4th functions as shields, I wish I could “attack” the world with my Se like I can my Ni 😂😂😂 90% of my problems wouldn’t exist. - INFJ
Wow! The master of all cognition is wanting to release more content about Sensors! Wow 2X!
Little regard for ... social exchange. .. etc. That's one of the things that kept throwing me off. I would think I sound "just like" this type except ... and the except was either that they loved small talk and talking about feelings all day long or they hated it. And, hate it if it is all day long or without reason- the gooshy "We need to talk" sort of talks, that is - but I love the sort of talk where you meet up with friends at a diner or just kick back and chill at home, or , go out dancing or whatever. But, I also need the deeper stuff. Not the gooshier, more overly sensitive stuff. No. Just leave my life if you are going to not give me a logical reason or simply say "I don't know. I felt mad so I acted like a jerk." Because, my goodness, everybody has themselves some trauma or angst. Let's have pizza and beer, and talk about them, instead.Though, not for around a year from now.
My Te very much loves the maths and physics terminology you use in this video !
Thanks Pazzy! Haha I enjoyed that
I've been waiting all month for this haha!
Fantastic video as always. I am quite certain I am an ENF-T but I relate to a lot of this... only in certain situations, though. You've mentioned before how the ENF-T can use SeFe in certain scenarios which I relate to often. Yet I wonder how it differs from ESF-T's SeFe? The only way I could discern myself from this video was because I am certain I use way more NiFi than SiFi, but still it's always good to have clarification.
Could a possible "ESTP vs ENTP" video be on its way? Love your content, Harry!
SeFe gateway tends to be fast and reactive, and has a harder quality to it. NeFe by contrast, regardless of Se dip, is very intentional and works more deterministically (like a music conductor) to shape the social landscape.
SiTi logic is a lot more algorithmic and computational than NiTi also!
Ah I love it whenever I can learn more about CPT haha thanks for the video 🙌
I appreciate it!
Love the spray paint analogy! Like some other people, for me that was great timing as well since I have recently worked with it. So, I can relate both metaphorically and physically :)
I suspect myself to be an ENFP, yet I wonder how I can see myself in those descriptions. I'm not sure if you remember but I had asked you a few times how I can develop my Fe. After some time it just developed on its own and now I see too much haha. But I like it more than when I didn't!
Specifically, I find myself predicting how certain social things could affect certain people and how any given room can feel by me saying something. That seems weird because if I'm an ENFP, I should be an intuitive thinker, not feeler.
Is this possible for an ENFP?
I also find myself relating more and more to INFJs just as much, if not, more than I relate to the ESTP. When will the ENFP subtypes video come out, if I may ask? I suspect that I may be an ambivert.
I understand that you have a life outside TH-cam but I would love to have a conversation with you. I can imagine that we would have a conversation I can't have with most people.
Oh my goodness . Sign 4. I think I'll go make a t-shirt that just says "Sign 4" on it, for my own amusement.
I feel like intp becomes estp when online and estp becomes intp when alone 😂
🔥 Another great and informative video!
I spent the majority of my life thinking I do not get bored, because, well, I do not get bored in the way that most people I know get bored when they say "I am so bored." which is usually folllowed by or entirely expressed as "There is nothing to do." Generally, there is always something to do- think, sing, feel, paint, write, exercise, work, something.
But, recently, I remembered a few times when I just couldn't take it anymore, and I was bored, bored, bored ... not because there was nothing to do but because life was being so staid and predictable, and nothing was a surprise. No one was doing or saying anything that was not to be expected of them. Criminals committing crime in the usual way, reporters reporting the same, the police saying the same things to the criminals and slapping on the same handcuffs. People walking down the street, observing and making the same comments about the same things, wearing the same sort of clothes and makeup as usual and relieving their own boredom in the same conformist manner they always had.
One time, I did something that was energetically criminal and dexterous, to the point that the observing police officer simply said he would report it all in some other way altogether as he didn't know how to write it up. And, thusly was everyone's boredom relieved for a small time.
Weirdly, no one ever mentioned it to me again. None of the people I was walking with, no one in my family was ever told - unless, maybe I told them, later, and it was one of the things they had decided I was either lying about or insane for thinking happened- and no one whose property sustained damage ever complained or sought recompense.
I was treated somewhat more deferentially by some people and challenged more by others. Which was, more or less, the same way things always go.
I'm so curious as to what it was that you did 🤣
I love your videos, but this one was hard to hear because the volume was too low... I'm sorry, don't mean to be rude, it's just honest feedback.
Many insights on this great personality! Have a wonderful day! 😄
Sorry again, but I just want to update my coment saying that it was actually my PC that was low on volume... My bad 😵💫
You are so good.
Did you think there's the potential for a lot of conflict with Fi authority types? I've noticed this with my ESTP son & fiancé who's an Fi authority type
you used alot of large words but you helped me realise im an ESTP so thankyou lol
This may sound ridiculous to some, but I would love to hear your perspective on being potentially mistyped between INFJ and ESTP. Is it even reasonable that this should be a difficult axis?
Honestly the latter type can mistype as literally anything. If there's a range between most and least likely mistypes, INFJ would be in the middle I'd say
Can an estp be extremely introverted?
Can ESTP misstype as ESTJ?
@@neagudavid2955 if on adhd pills yes lol helps us plan ahead better and have a vision more so
@@neagudavid2955 yes I did when I took the test for my first job out of college trying to answer more “professional”
Thanks for the video! Can you make Signs you are actually an ENTJ?
Definitely interested in that Matrix video if you haven't made it already
I really like your content. Sadly, I wasn't able to find any videos you made about ENFJs. I would really love to hear your thoughts about my personality type.
The alternating camera zoom is bugging me out.
I know this video is not about INFJ but it’s your newest video so I hope I get a reaction. Sometimes I want things in my benefit and want things the easiest way, not allways life is never black and white like that, but am I still an INFJ for that.
so good, bud
You’re the GOAT
Hey Harry i beg you i am so confused can you tell me whats David Lynch type?
I don't know why I get INFJ and ESPT when I take a test 😭 it's like 80% infj and 20% estp. Sometimes it's am even closer split as if I'm equally both
Which test did you take? You could be on the right lines re you've narrowed down the 'right' functions so that leaves you with 4 cognitive types. As a typed ENFJ I was pretty sure despite 'appearances' that I used Ni,Fe and Ti but wasn't certain of Se probably due to stereotypes and being a divergent subtype.
@@AnyaAnnika67 Emma! I found you! I’m the idiot who was WRONG a week ago in a comment on another channel!
I just clicked on Harry’s newest video and… I was immediately humbled to see that he was lining up cognition similar to Jung! I have no idea why I thought otherwise - I watched his old videos on ENTPs especially… I don’t know why I thought differently!
Anyway - YEA, I’m an idiot! I’m embarrassed by how stupid my comment was and I wanted to apologize for being arrogant!
I was just wondering how the hell I was going to find you and apologize… this is wild.
I was meant to call myself an idiot to your face! 😂😂
Anyway, please forgive me, ma’am!
@@AnyaAnnika67 HI! I took the truity test! I've taken so many though and I've gotten multiple results. How do I really test my cognitive functions whilst only incorporating emotions when needed? Espt and Infj really fluctuate for me and I notice I get espt more when I think about work or how I connect to people when I'm around them vs how I think about them when I'm alone. Idk 😭 I've gotten INFJ more dominantly than ESPT but I've also gotten INFP as well.
@@TarzanHedgepethno need to apologise although it's greatly appreciated 😊. I have great difficulty admitting when I'm wrong so kudos to you, I'm truly humbled 😊
@@AnyaAnnika67 Thank you!!
IM AN ESTPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
Do you have any videos about ESFJs planned? I think I am one but the type is very misunderstood. Also how can you tell the difference between ESFJ & ENTP?
ESFJ video 100% on the way
I'm an ESTP... I don't understand what you're saying 😂😂 weeeeee 🤸🏽♀️🫨😎
I'm pretty sure this is me
This video and what it brings is GREAT, but I can often barely understand what word he is saying 🥺😔 and why he pronounce R like a W in every word? Maybe it's accent I never heard before, but I'm sad because his content is very good.
Could the ESTP be impulsive thank you for the video.
My adult, ESTP child. To the letter.
Thank you, sir.
Oh dear .. I can't hear this, very well at all. Maybe if I had privacy it would help. See you in about a decade, then! lol I'll check for subtitles.
honestly i use se ti more than se fe in conversations
Please make matrix personality types video!
nope 5 seconds in have to peace out shit crazy fam get some black friends much love
😂😂😂
ISTJ vs ISTP video. One day?
estp me wanna closed this video after 1min... make it more concise please...
I was 30 seconds in, and already went to twitter while playing the background cause idk. But bro just has way too many words. Can someone give me a TLDR lmao.
Si fi grew enough to mimic istj ?
Never felt more like someone peering into my soul than this video, awesome😎
How are you doing?
Life is currently a juggling act but in the best possible way!
I’m so sick of people consistently delineating Se dom or aux types as these peripheral types who get their energy from disorder or some nonsense.
Thank you.
Andrew Tate is the ultimate ESTP
