I notice this one is personal, and I saw the video where you said that Fi-doms don't really want others telling them what to do, or they want advice unless they specifically ask for it, or something on that line, so in the hope of helping you and the perfectionist INFPs, I thought I respectfully through my 2 cents in (based on my own experience): So I'm an ex-perfectionist ISFP, and I learned by trial and error that my Te is willing to work most likely when my other first 3 functions are "ready for it", or "OK with it". For example: If there is something I personally find immoral about the way to finish a job (my 1st-Fi is not OK with it), then I'm very not likely to do it. If there is something I find particularly ugly aesthetically (like a TH-cam thumbnail) (my 2nd-Se is not OK), I'm not likely to finish that thumbnail, instead of that, I will have to re-design it (completely, if necessary). If there is something missing from my long-term vision of a project (my 3rd-Ni is not ready), then I'm not going to start to work on it before my long term vision gets complete and solidifies. . So inly after all these 3 functions are OK or ready, only then I can do the my 4th-Te work, but after all previous 3 is OK/ready, doing the 4th-Te work feels waaay easier (emotionally easier, it might get frustrating occasionally when I have to figure out something, or when I mess up the order of steps in the procedure while finishing the project, but overall it feels much easier and overall less frusttating and feels less daunting It definitelly FEELs easier (which I guess it is kind of important for FEELing-doms to stay motivated/energized/etc). For Fi-doms it's great when it feels easier to do a relatively complicated task, and for Fe-doms it's great when it feels easier to understand a relatively complicated concept, and they can make it feel easier if they take care of their 1st, 2nd and 3rd functions' needs before they are going to tackle the 4th-Te. . In a nutshell: STEP 1: Make your 1st, 2nd and 3rd function OK/ready. STEP 2: 4th-Te-"Just do it!"

Well played my friend. Thank you, I’ll have to make a video about this over on TikTok. I do agree. The only thing I’m wishy-washy on would be the Fe dom prefering conceptual ideas instead of concrete. That would call a need for the secondary/parental function - intuition or sensing. But that’s just in my experience. Well said and well played thank you! I appreciate your insight. PS I’ve never had an ISFP comment this long… some of the details you’ve mentioned (like the thumbnail creation example) makes me think of a couple other types instead.
I am impressed by the way esfp expresses concern for infp’s procrastination, coz I have been so tired by the way Xstjs pushing and criticizing that attitude of mine. Don’t worry, infps are just procrastinating, thinking one day I will complete it, in slow pace.
INFPs really are talented when they let themselves be, it’s insane
Aye. :)
@mbtiguy same for ENTPs
@@personalityguy When my brain lets me be that is. Too many ideas lol

So I'm an ex-perfectionist ISFP,
and I learned by trial and error that
my Te is willing to work most likely when my other first 3 functions are "ready for it", or "OK with it".
For example:
If there is something I personally find immoral about the way to finish a job
(my 1st-Fi is not OK with it),
then I'm very not likely to do it.
If there is something I find particularly ugly aesthetically (like a TH-cam thumbnail) (my 2nd-Se is not OK),
I'm not likely to finish that thumbnail,
instead of that, I will have to re-design it (completely, if necessary).

before my long term vision gets complete and solidifies.

So inly after all these 3 functions are OK or ready,
only then I can do the my 4th-Te work,
but after all previous 3 is OK/ready,
doing the 4th-Te work feels waaay easier (emotionally easier, it might get frustrating occasionally when I have to figure out something, or when I mess up the order of steps in the procedure while finishing the project, but overall it feels much easier and overall less frusttating and feels less daunting
It definitelly FEELs easier (which I guess it is kind of important for FEELing-doms
to stay motivated/energized/etc).
For Fi-doms
it's great when it feels easier
to do a relatively complicated task, and
for Fe-doms it's great when it feels easier
to understand a relatively complicated concept, and
they can make it feel easier
if they take care of their 1st, 2nd and 3rd functions' needs before they are going to tackle the 4th-Te.
.
In a nutshell:
STEP 1:
Make your 1st, 2nd and 3rd function OK/ready.
STEP 2:
4th-Te-"Just do it!"

Thank you, you made me emotional, but in a good way. I wish you the best
You too, thanks. We got this.
