I think as an isfp, I really have bad memory with names and facts, but I have good visual memory. I remember faces, feelings, and places vividly..
this. It’s the sensual experience that is remembered, the feelings, not the other crap. Bring back some photos, and it will all come back.
I just give their name a rhythm and tap it with my toes and after they leave I tap it until I remember their name. Then I speak their name in seance fashion for like 7 minutes
me too l remember their face, their energy, and how they made me feel. I'll remember how they styled their hair, how they smelled, or what they wore.
Also the sound of peoples voices always stays with me. I won't remember the conversations, but the tone and sound of their voice will be remembered and will stay with me. I'll recall all the little details but can't pin point a persons name.
@@Lynn-ip9sh Hahaha you hit the nail on the head. I constantly need to apologize for not remembering names. Even if I really like the person.
Names are really the worst!!!
People always get offended when I struggle to find their name like F, last times a just forget my brother name leave me alone 😭😭😭
ISFPs: Moral in the outside but crazy in the inside.
Someone tell my parents this 😩
ohheyyy * As a parent to an artist ISFP (majoring in Animation for college) I had to explain to her my artistic points (being an artist myself) were not criticism... we just want her to create/produce the best work of art so she can excel! 😂
Can you think of your parents’ criticism in a similar way sometimes? They just want the best for/from you? 😆
L. FERRER ahh thank you I’ll remember this 😅
@@l.ferrer7923 criticism is necessary sometimes, for self improvement. I'm an ISFP myself and not going to lie, I'm always hungry for things like compliments. When someone that I love show some appreciation, it makes me all bubbly inside. and of course I tend to get those criticism, however, if they sound more like attacking, with harsh tone, it will immediately make me close myself off, and scared.
K Waffle yes same, for me it’s also the fact that I’m my own biggest critic so to hear more criticism is just overwhelming... I’m aware this needs improvement ! Sometimes I want to hear what I’m doing right 🙃
As an ISFP I seriously appreciate the nonjudgemental honesty with which some pretty painful truths are delivered here. I always appreciate a straightforward, rip off the band-aid approach and prefer when others are willing to give honest, negative feedback if necessary rather than simply smiling and hiding their true feelings.
I am an intp, and I feel the same about my video. Thank you Joseph.
I completely agree ~ ISFP-T
Oh, another "painful truth" fetishist? Haha!
The reason I personally disagree so starkly with this myth of the "painful truth" is 1. first, most of the time it's young, naive people who havent learned basic things about life YET so are taking the "painfulness" in for the first time. Whereas, older people or people who grew up way too fast basically already KNOW the painful shit and don't need to hear it wielding as a weapon for cheap, petty power play. Second- most importantly- I'm so fascinated by the WRONGness of it!! Throughout my entire life, when I encounter something that is true, I almost always find it to be relieving, comforting rather painful. It is only ever LIES that have been painful for me. Everything else: aging, death, taxes, grief- I can handle with perhaps even a secret hope that there's a way out of it. It's lies, always lies that are the most painful.
Damn same!
YogiDevendra Biriyani
I’m an Intp.
Truth is what I do.
People die horribly.
Painfully.
They starve, the live in poverty and squalor. Hells.
We do nothing about it.
A disease could sweep the earth wiping us out at any moment.
We are too greedy as a species to not destroy literally everything around us, so our best bet is to leave this planet and spread across the stars like a plague.
We kill each other for petty bullshit.
We fight each other over systems of currency that we fucking made up.
So when you say that truth is comfortable, and lies are always painful, you clearly haven’t looked that fucking hard.
"never ask an isfp what they think, like ever, that's dumb, that'll activate the demon immediately"
Hilarious
This is so true
🤦😂😂😂🤷
also is it just me or do other ISFPs not like to be asked about their day when they're having a bad day? some people love to rant and let it out but i like to move on (i mean it's done, i can't change it, so why talk about it?!) and i like to talk about things that make me happy instead.
coconutmilch I feel similar. I’ve never understood how people know what to explain about their day and why they feel the need to talk about it.. could be cuz I just never know what I would even mention specifically without going through my entire day. When I’m done with work, I’m already moved into “Not at Work” mode. Lol
I lost it on that one! Now as an INTP should I have the same level of fear of the Ti demon or am I uniquely qualified to fend it off? lol
here's a comment you can like if you're isfp and you know you have bad memory
🙋🏻♀️
Wesley Scherr totally selective - nice 🎯
Lol right!? Where is this "stereotype" coming from. 😂
umm bru momento
Im gonna forget that I liked this
The thing about being tricked is i kinda know when im being tricked, like when someone try to sell things to me, I get suspicious but, I don't know, I just can't refuse?😅
Raisha often when I’m being tricked, I am aware and let it happen, because I enjoy seeing where people take things or what they want to happen
I have an ISFJ mother, is this why I never had a problem with this? lol
Tony. I don’t really see a point. Liars are liars. I do like arguing with stupid people, though
Yeah, maybe being younger and naive I could have easily been tricked, but through experience I see when someone is trying to trick me or sceptical of someone I don't know well. I think of it as a game of someone thinks they are deceiving me but I see what their motives are. Maybe it's just something that makes me Feel like I have control.
Got to confess I don't remember well, and I hate that! Wish I was better at remembering everything.
Perfectly said, Raisha. I’ve never been able to explain it - but that’s it. Something in me wants to please them, even though I know it’s not in my own best interest. I feel sorry for people. All of them.
Oh lord, the memory thing is so true, I have no issues admitting it. Sure, I remember a thousand different conjugations in French or Italian since I love learning languages and have done so for years, but ask me what I did last month or who visited me and I honestly don't know/can't remember. I have no idea how my brother (not sure about his type) remembers shit from 10 or 20 years ago; I can't remember most things from last year! I'm really a live-in-the-moment sort of guy, heh. Never trust an ISFP's memory, tbh!
Lol :D. My best friend is an ISFP and I've actually complimented his memory. I thought his memory's good. But yes he does forget some things that I remember. I think his memory isn't as good as mine but not horrible, he still has memory like every human. I'm an ISFJ.
same thats so true!
Guillermo i TOTALLY agree with you. I’m an ISFP too btw.
I can’t even remember what I had for breakfast yesterday for starters.
ISFP here. I have so many memories from great times. Even when I was like 3 years old. However if my mom tells me to do this or that I just forget it and I can't do anything about it.
Yeah it sucks cause how am I supposed to study?
ISFPs are so enigmatic to me. Actually all the background types. Okay, all introverts are mysterious to me.
Okay fine, all humans and everything in life are mysteries to me.
LOL
And extroverts are so louds
@Leearn LOL
What’s your type?
@@henriquevalenca5694 They just need your love from time to time.
I think ISFP's just want the quickest path back to a peace or zen state (or what is perceived as such). That's my motivation for most things at least, and Im prone to quickly address anything that interferes with it. Its like, how dare the world interfere with my little bubble.
Also very enneagram 9 which a lot of isfps are. Does chase believe in enneagram? Or could it just be like some kind of way of describing the different levels of integration among the same type 🤔
IDK if i am ISFP or not but i might be but i definitely tend to ignore my problems and “forget about them”. I do have this idea of wanting to be zen
One of the things I hate the most is getting pushed around. I NEED to take the things at my own pace. This is why I sometimes lose my cool at my work :(
What you said about ISFPs having a tendency to believe untrue things due to a tendency to rely on group think seems to be spot on here.
You mean like Herbalife? I joined to them some years back and three people told me it was a cult..I don't care if it is though coz the energy those guys emit from the supplements woooh.
Please explain? It goes against the "rebel artist" stereotype. It's not at all true for me personally either.
@@randomnumbers84269 Group think, not group feel. Us ISFPs are much less likely to compromise our values, but when it comes to logical reasoning, ISFPs look to others. I've fallen victim to this. I've been tricked into believing something to be true because it gave "seemingly" good reasons for it to be true, for example giving statistics that are cherry picked, or conflating correlation and causation, etc. I didn't recognize the logical fallacies until someone pointed them out. And then it was like "Oh! Duh! How could I have not seen that!" Reevaluate, change, improve.
@@randomnumbers84269 ISFPs think they're rebels but actually completely follow counterculture trends and parrot the same ideas as that group.
ISFPs are the "it's not a phase mom, it's who I am" kids who dress, act and think like a walking stereotype of something that's not mainstream but extremely accessable and think they're super out there and unique.
They're the types of people who were emos in high school, blue haired feminists in university and hippies at age 25, then at age 35 they're a tattoo artist and alternative healer who has dyed hair with black new age style clothing, combining all their past fads into the "real" them
I am an ISFP. I found this video to be startlingly accurate.
I didn't take myers brigg seriously until recently, but it's 99% dead on with how I feel about everything.
As an ISFP I've noticed that I am very interested in experiences. I almost throw myself (though not without anxiety) into new experiences and change purely for the value of growth that it will give me. I used to be super cautious about this- trying to observe other people while I was a child (possibly a reaction to my INT brothers observations of people and labeling them as "stupid" and my unwillingness to be looked at the same way) and not make similar mistakes. I've more recently discovered the value of learning lessons through your own experiences and how much more powerful it can be.
Also I've noticed that it is difficult for people to piss me off to the point of holding onto that feeling. Usually if I get mad at someone it fades within a few hours.
Holy crap SAME like SCARILY similar
same, i have social anxiety and randomly went to a social gathering where I didn't know anyone there, because I had the opportunity to
Oh my god! I just watched this video. CS Joseph, I am a full blown ISFP. I have always thought, since high school, that I was an INFP, but it makes sense now. You say that ISFPs can get very interested in the metaphysical, and we fit in nicely with the NFs. That is totally me. I have always been interested in the occult and meditation, divination, lucid dreaming, etc. Additionally, I do have a terrible memory. I have good memory when it comes to school, but I am terrible at remembering names, faces, phone numbers, my own address (I have to look up my own address...), passwords, events. One time I had a conversation with someone about having a bad memory, and they told me, "We had this conversation before?" "We did?" "Yeah about 2 months ago, you were telling me how you had a bad memory..." Also, I can totally see the group think, although I had not thought of this before. When I was a teenager my aunt asked me what I wanted to do when I grew up. I told her, "I think I want to become an accountant." She then told me, "You don't want to become an accountant. Accountants are boring people." I don't know why, but she got that in my head, and I started thinking... "I don't want to be boring. I don't want to be an accountant. Maybe I will figure something else out." It was years later that I got really mad at her for that, because maybe I would have been an awesome accountant, but she tricked me or talked me out of following one of my passions. Like yeah maybe accounting is boring, but in high school, I really liked accounting class...Ugh! I have to be very careful now what people tell me. Because I feel like their opinions can really influence me...
Same I wasnt really careful about my decision because I rely on what others say to me. Before I got to college, I really wanna be an architect because I wanna beautify structures, I wanna design a house and sign it with my name, I'm pretty hands-on with anything related to sketching but my civil engineering uncle told me that I can still do designing if I took the same course as his. I was afraid to tell them how much I really want architecture but I heard 'them' saying that it's too costly, since only private schools in our city has architecture. So I chose Civil Engineering instead and it's been such a pain in the ass. I was so naive that I didn't knew it will be so hard for me, math problem solvings, leadership, analyzation and really have to be innovative(which im not).I was so pressured because i'm the total opposite of what a CE should be. I act like everythings okay to my parents since they expect highly of me. I've failed a lot of times in my grades. 😭 It made me doubt my own capabilities. Ive always regret of not being assertive to what I really loved and ended up blaming myself instead.Even now that i'm already in my 4rth yr. Just one remaining year and iIl finally graduate.I'm still suffering emotionally, physically and mentally. My classmate often talks about me if Im okay since i seem super problematic and it scares them that i might commit suicide.
They pushed me to tell the truth to my parents and so I did.. but's already too late :(
You talk about how much ISFP'S rage. I have a couple in my extended family and find them to be extremely tolerant of other people and will let a lot go, far more than most other types. However, everyone has their limits, and of course they can snap, and it is scary.. But by and large they seem to be really chill people, and they seldom seem to be the instigators of any bad situations. You probably won't find too many of them on the internet though, as most of the one's I've come across don't seem to be all that interested in anything other than where they happen to be at that particular time. I really like them. Thanks for posting.
ghenttoo thank you for the comment and yes I completely agree with you. ISFPs can get ragey but it is more uncommon as they have to be provoked into it.
Yes, if I am provoked over and over or backed into a corner, I will stand my ground and it will not go well. People take advantage or underestimate the kind and peaceful people. I usually hate strife and discord, but I will take my stand when trampled on (ISFP)
Jeremiah B are you sure you are not an INFP?
I will respond in detail on the ISFP virtue/vice thread.
I so recognize this :)
(ISFP)
"ISFP's are the most morally strong people" *cracks knuckles in INFP*
I don't think an INFP would like to Fight
I'm INFP and my father is ISFP. I would say that my father is prone to make a moral decision to the situation in front of him, "right now", to make him feel good, even if it will have bad consequences in the future. Whereas I am prone to make moral decisions that will have long-term effects and affect persons' futures.
@@robertsh.2506 Exactly, you're concerned more about other people and their futures, while isfp are more concerned about right now and doing the right thing right now, for us first, then other people follow. We go with our Fi judgements moment by moment while you plan for a long term, which makes it easier to walk over you, because you can and you will endure more, to get to where you want to go, so you'll refrain from judging them if you think it's the righth think to do in terms of the future, while we just cool right here right now and judge person day by day with out Se observation.
We're more moral in terms of being more upfront and day by day about it, because if you're not doing a moral thing, we're cconstantly going to keep judging you, while you're more moral in a long term, you suffer and don't judge so often, as long as you see shit with your ne and it's on point, you're good.
@@rauliuxaa yes, this is why different types should complement each other
@@rauliuxaa ISFPs are also not so good at money management (Ne trickster) and are easily taken advantage of with "kind words" in a relationship/work environment/friendship (Ne trickster doesn't understand people's long term intentions). I'm saying it from years of observation after my ISFP father.
I'm an ISFP, but I don't really get effected by "group think" and I can usually tell when someone's trying to trick me or convince me to buy something. I also tend to seek out the truth knowing it's best (especially as a man of science). I will lead with my heart overall, but I do take what I know to be actually true to heart as well. Overall pretty good observation
Me too as an ISFP but it took me a few decades.
I grew up in a born again christian household. Reconciling that belief system with being gay broke any group think susceptibility that doesn't feel right. I might follow for a little while, but when it stops feeling right, I snap out of it and move on.
Isfps are super brilliant and incredibly intelligent.
@@therealsavarkdicupe Im also an ISFP and I totally agree with what you said about when it doesn’t feel right to just get out of it and search for something that truly feels right and good. When I feel strongly about something that’s definitely what I will do but if a good friend tells me that this person is this or that way I’ll totally believe it until I’m proved wrong and I don’t even question it really. Maybe for an ISFP group thinking mostly refers to things they don’t feel strongly or passionate about.
I used to get affected by it but I think that I'm starting to think for myself more. I'm not just gonna believe stuff without evidence and without thinking it through more
I am an ISFP, and I dont want to be rude, but whoever is doing the dishes in the background is making it really hard for me to concentrate on what you are saying. I would really love it if you did another session on ISFP's. Thanks so much!! P.S. - I LOVE your channel!! I have been watching for only a week or so and I have started watching your videos from the beginning so I can get a better knowledge of other personality types as well as understand myself a bit more. Thank you for what you are doing!!
I'm an ISFP and I'm TOTALLY interested in metaphysics, as you said, and that's exactly why I've been watching all of the videos in your channel lately.
Thanks for this content, keep up the good work!
@Leearn same
Haha i'm also very interested in metaphysics while not really understanding what it means
@J H wtf bro, since when YOU are the standard to type other ISFPs?
@J H I have, probably way more than you do.
I really agree with that memory thing, I’m an ISFP and I’m SO DARN forgetful 🤣
I think it's important to note that part of growing up, part of maturing, as an ISFP, is to learn to deal with criticism, to even accept it and grow with it. Your description of the ISFP was very accurate to me when I was a teenager, but since then I've learned to deal with most of the more negative traits here. I value knowing the truth, even if it contradicts what I want to be true (identifying the truth, and how it's different from what I want to be true or feel good about being true, is necessary to creating the world I want.) I know how to be discriminating about group think. I know how to accept criticism (oh my god it's still hard but it's so important to do.) I know my memory isn't the best so I take measures to help myself remember the important things. I know I can't read peoples intentions towards me worth shit (although I'm a little better with control and exploitation because I've studied them extensively), so I keep Fe-types around to help out and am careful to communicate about those issues. I reign in the ti-demon when I get criticism and instead process the negative reaction until I can make use of the criticism. Etc etc. etc. you wouldn't ever have to worry about me inventing a crazy assassination technique to kill you because that would be unethical.
Anyways, point is, you said that we approach everything like a work of art, like a magnum opus. And that's true. But we're also primarily focused inward and our own selves are one of those things we approach as a magnum opus. I'd hazard a guess (I know this is true for me and am guessing that it could be true for other ISFPs as well) that our self IS our Magnum Opus, and that everything else is just an expression to explore and experiment to continue improving that.

Omg i appreciate this thank you
my mom is an isfp and this is so true!!!!
she's very concerned about what other people think of her and just in general wants to make other people's experience a good one as much as she can. she has a bad memory in the same way you described it; she will only remember how that situation made her feel causing her to remember it differently sometimes.
she is probably the scariest customer because if she thinks you're treating her unfair or if your company policy is unfair, she will get very angry and might even get you fired.
also as an infj, i am always asking her what she thinks and she hates it. she says she doesn't like mbti because it stereotypes people. maybe she feels like she's being judged? idrk
It does stereotype people
I’m ISFP and I also hate the mbti.... I don’t like to be what somebody else says I should be or be put in a box type !!!! Totally agree with your mom :)
This is really important information. I was about to share mbti with my ISFP mom....
For me as an isfp, I dont like mbti bcs sometimes it gets so stereotypical, but mbti helped me a lot understanding my self and people around me and that's why I'm here, it's like a guilty pleasure maybe?!
@@Eve29xYeah, I’m an ISFP and I actually like MBTI….for fictional characters, I don’t know, in real life it just stereotypes people…
I see it more as a tool for creating characters or something lol, though I do slightly believe in it after learning cognitive functions and how I line up with I S F P.
Though I have HIGH anxiety and sometimes overthink.
One time I was so trapped in my mind with depression and anxiety that I temporarily became an INFJ💀
I just started getting into personality types and I must say, it is an indescribable feeling to see that I am not the only one who feels the things that I do. I think am best described as ISFP, but am a little unsure. I like to consider myself easy to talk to and overall a friendly person, but when I am alone I tend to be very dark and sort of twisted. I have been in a relationship for 4 years and tend to be the more submissive one. I comply with virtually anything my partner asks of me. However, with anyone else, I feel the need to be in complete control. I like things to go my way. I consider myself to be artistic, but in unconventional ways. I have a deep passion for makeup, beauty, and clothing, and tend to dress pretty unconventionally. I tend to be very messy and disorganized, which I don’t understand because I really appreciate things that look nice. Something I’ve noticed about myself is I can only handle people for a short period of time. If I don’t get time alone, I become agitated and rude, but feel pretty guilty that I am being that way. I often feel as though I have two very contradicting personalities. I haven’t dug deep enough into personality typing to completely grasp it, but I hope to keep learning more about it. Thanks for the awesome & educational video!!
I wanna know how you people know your friend and family scale?? I am ISFP. The memory part makes so much sense. I would forget something when someone bring it up but if I'm alone later that day or that week I'll totally remember everything. It's like my brain stored it somewhere else and it didn't wanna come out at the time it was brought up.
I also like to do what I want and I do get ragey when I feel a loss of control or if FAIRNESS comes up. Sheesh. And I also find myself not liking to small talk or share inner feelings or thoughts with someone my spirit don't take to
I am INTJ architect/mastermind, my wife is ISFP. I wish I had known this information a long time ago. Thank you for going into such an explicit explanation of this personality type, it will do us much help.
(ISFP)
One of my very good friends is an ENTJ. He'll randomly text me for feedback on his photography and new podcast ideas (He wants to do a podcast about history and current events). It's really neat to see what an ENTJ developing their subconscious looks like. Funny how pleasant well rounded people can be. Go figure :P
It's most likely that my mother is an ISFP.
It doesn't matter what proof she doesn't have, I have to consistently talk her out of spiraling into believing that everyone is a crook out take advantage of her kindness/morality which I suspect she is self-conscious of as her weakness. People tend to think she is controlling. She is such a gem. The irony is, I'm not an xSFJ (I think I'm an ENFP), but I constantly feel the need to protect her-- ESPECIALLY from poor financial decisions.
I find your videos is helpful.
OK, OK, wait. You're talking about this conversation you had with one or two isfp's or some hypothetical situation that many isfp's brag about their amazing memory. I have always struggled with my memory and it's terrible. I forget names, faces, details about information I have read about, even common words, etc.. I would get A's in tests at school and literally forget all the info a few days later. I don't expect other isfp's to have as bad of a memory as I have, but don't say this is a "common thing isfp's brag about " since I've never heard an other isfp brag about this nor have I ever done that myself. Lol
I AM AN INTP AND MY MOM IS ISFP. we used to fight every day until i deduced i shouldn't ask her logical questions , then i found out this video , it all makes perfect sense. thank you.
Meow what kind of questions were you asking her?
Oh BULLSHIT. Youre mom isnt "illogical" because she's an ISFP; maybe youre just a spoiled brat who ASSUMES erroneously that your every thought and whim is in fact "logic" when she realizes it is in fact not. You're just couching your own emotional needs in particular thoughts which you personally label "logic" but is NOT.
Meow yeah nah. You’re no intp.
@@zlatanibrahimovic8329 no, I've had same experiences with my mom. But something I've learned is, logical people can't win an emotional argument, so it's better to give up for harmony.
I dated an ISFP for 9 years and he made me *so" much beautiful art. From a crow weathervane for my barn to bluebird houses to a yin yang depiction of my horses.
I am ISTJ and it bothered me when *he* would decide what I needed as art rather than asking me. And I am well aware of the rages they can throw when being criticized (much like how a narcissist behaves). I wish him well and I hope he finds a better-suited type for him in the future. :-)
I swear you know me more than I know myself! Everything makes perfect sense though, I'm glad to know I'm not alone in being like this and that there's a reason for my bad memory. Thank you for this video, very insightful.
You are most welcome.
I'm always so harsh on myself because I just don't have strong opinions on things/events (Ti demon?) I tend to simply observe them for what they are and gather as much info as possible. I'd never give a polarising opinion in a group setting (Te Inferior?) at the risk of being judged for it. I always run my team events at work and make sure everyone engages and has fun (Se parent) even though I'm quite nervous to do so. I'm a natural musician across 5-6 instruments and played a high level of cricket here in Australia (both Se parent?) both of which came with enormous performance anxiety. I'm still not sure what my type is but this vid has resonated with me the most out of all CS's vids. I may just be an ISFP...
I am an ISFP or so thats what I think I am right now but I have no problems with the whole people taking advantage of me I can sense the general feeling in the room fairly quickly and can judge easily if someone should be trusted or not and their intentions. This goes out of the window when on alcohol though :).
I was hesitant on accepting this label but this was very accurate to me
5:55 - Never realized about the personal brand thing; but come to think of it, that is so true!
7:59 - Not sharing inner thoughts because it might cause other's opinions of us to change, which goes against our desire to deliver consistency. We take our reputation seriously---Again, never thought that this was an ISFP thing, but it's accurate!
10:00 - I'm an ISFP and I'll readily admit to my forgetfulness! I thought it was just me, but I guess it's linked to my personality type! Spot on!
Lots of great info that I didn't know about myself, but rings true upon reflection! Very very cool! Thank you for this!
As an extension about sharing inner thoughts, I would sometimes share my failings with others, even if it would make me look bad.
This is because I want others to see me the way I see myself (Again, wanting that consistency between my inner realities and my outward expressions). I do not want people to see me through a distorted or idealized lens. If others love or care for me, I want them to know who I truly am so that they can decide for themselves if they want to care for me as I am.
Thank you, I'm an ENTP currently dating an ISFP.
I've also had precognitive dreams, but she does it while awake.
I've found it to be a further deconstructed view that gets reorganized while sleeping and shows you a likely path to that scenario in the future.
so i had this whoooollleeee fool's journey through all the mbti types and i thought i was INTx, ENTx, xNFP, ISxJ and i ruled out SP for a loooong time because everyone's like "Se = mechanical mastery" and i'm like "but i have trouble with can openers" and i literally clicked out of this video after i heard "mechanical genius" but i decided to hear you out and now that i've heard it, it makes more sense. i really just don't care about can openers lol but i'm good at the things i like (which seems logical i mean, we become better through practice and if you like something you practice more, right?)
i used to think that my favorite thing to do is to sit around and think about philosophy but i think that's just me thinking too much back when i was depressed. also, all my life i've been known to cry very easily lol and i got SHAMED FOR IT and i felt so bad about it that i actively repressed my feelings.
i've had an awakening lately and i'm letting myself feel things again and i'm finally doing things i enjoy again
i know now that i do like to sit around and chill but i also love to sing, play the piano, decorate my room, listen to music, eat good food, freedive, run and rock climb. annnd i do love astrology/tarot/new-agey-spiritual stuff like past lives and things like that lol
finally knowing who i am feels heckin' good
So true about having a bad memory. I'm especially bad with remembering trivial details unless they're relevant or interesting to me personally.
20:10 Yup, I suspect my family lives in literal fear of my Ti demon. This video made me and my invisible guillotine feel strangely validated.
I hear you
I think we have a mean streak there. The TI Demon is really mean spirited and vindictive, I know how it feels now after bring threatened with court by a dodgy real estate agent, after going out of my way to professionally clean the property. I want to destroy Emily's life for doing this to me, I want to ruin her career, I want her to lose all her money and cry buckets of tears. I hate Emily and will rest only after I've done everything I can
God I finally found my personality, I’m so happy everything fits me spot on. The guitar, growing up drawing painting things, sensitive to when others hurt my feelings.
Yes! I almost always need some time alone to think about what I think and to make sure other peoples opinions don't influence my decisions. When I was younger it was even to the point of not really knowing if my favourite colour was actually mine or the choice of someone else, but luckily I got those kind of things figured out now and when I need it, I take my time before deciding :D
This is all very new to me....but I am ISFP & I feel like you just described me specifically. I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel! I look forward to learning more about this all, especially how to type my loved ones. I feel like this could tremendously help in my marriage right now! We are struggling to relate to how each other thinks, acts & feels....something that is difficult to admit for a couple who’s been married almost 20 years! I believe understanding one another’s type could be incredibly profound.
In true ISFP form, I enjoy solitude. I usually spend that alone time falling down various “rabbit holes” on whatever topics strike me at the time....this may be a subject very much worth diving into that could help me in everyday life. (Unlike those serial killer, Vice vortices, Celtic history & true crime rabbit holes I’ve found myself locked in!😂)
Thank you for all the awesome content & I look forward to learning more from you!
you are most welcome
ommmmg true crime rabbit holes are SUPER addictive, all the theories are so enticing!!
YogiDevendra Biriyani right!?!? Especially those crimes in or around my area. I don’t know why I do such things to myself! 😂
My most recent guilty indulgence, I found a makeup artist here on YT who discusses a true crime in detail whilst doing her makeup. 🤦🏼♀️😂
Just proof, there really is something for everyone out there! 😂😂
I'm ISFP and you nailed it.
QwQ when am interested in something i will go and research stuff about it and dig deep without knowing . it feels like Am doin somethin fun I don’t question myself why i do it or what am going to get from doing it but when I hate something just don’t bother yourself I will never listen to what you’re saying because I already know what I want that’s why am interested in psychology and helping people knowing themselves even though sometimes i feel overwhelmed
I’m an ISFP and you nailed it for sure. Although I will say that I’m the last person that could be sold by a sales person. I’m low P though too.
I'm glad we got to listen to someone making dinner in the background of this entire video.
As an ISFP the thing about wanting to make 'ultimate' experiences through art is very true, it's just that I undersell myself as well. This can sometimes be very annoying when you assume others will make the effort to experience and appreciate what you've done, because that's what you do for them, but they don't always see it that way
Here is the work of the ISFP artist, who brings their sensitivity of the physical work in a work of art for us Se users to enjoy: We had lunch on the waterfront in Belfast, Maine. The pier was a working parking lot, but the rustic setting was so pastoral with pink annuals planted in an old row boat overlooking the view and black petunias in the window boxes offset by contrasting greenery in lime greens, placed to block the cars in the parking lot, and rickety old boats lending movement in the bay. I learned that this kind of setting can be just as beautiful as a stunning mountain range. Then there was the contrasting flavors and textures of the food.... You can make something from nothing, and the physical world is oh so beautiful. I really appreciate the physical world. I love artists, who have a sensitivity to what is beautiful in life and who bring it to us to enjoy. All of it awoke my senses and made me appreciate the physical world. The concentration of gifts in that single place brought it...excited it...intensified it.....and it didn't hurt that I had the vision of Cher singing "Fernando" about the thunderous canon making her cry going through my head, for I had just seen Mamma Mia II, a joyous movie.... "For what we are about to receive, may the Lord make us truly thankful. Amen"
Awesome
I find my art in my in sports as an ISFP, and pretty much everything you said relates to me. Buddy read me like a book📕
i am an intp with an isfp friend, he is a science nerd and initially... i thought he was a robot with no feelings. turns out he was really kind hearted, just slightly frustrated about everyone and slightly depressed, and not used to expressing himself. haven't watched till the end, hoping that it'll help me understand him better since he only talks about his feelings on very rare, random occasions.
my dad never studied mechanics, but he can fix anything from completely remodeling an electrical circuit to fixing tv, fridge, anything i can imagine, he can completely dismantle a schooter or motor bike, rebuild part by part after fixing or remodeling,and he can fix any car problems, he can create a whole house electrical wearing, build furnitures, he has received awards for his paintings which are everywhere on our wall, is an wildlife photographer here, he is gentle and so keen in seeing minute details. and nowwww i found out he is an isfp. its beautiful. I am amazed how your research and knowledge is so broad . why don't you write books dear. Everything you say for every personality matches in every single detail.
My creative outlet, or "art", tends to be stories that have an emotional impact on others. When I was drama director at church, people would comment on how the plays were so emotionally effective--not to the point of being melodramatic--but as a way of displaying the hopes and heartbreaks of life. I also can sketch, but don't usually display my drawings, unless it's for a menu board at the coffee shop I sometimes work at.
me too but I don't usually share my work. it's really only my professors who know
Demon part was so accurate and hilarious!
I’m really just impressed you held that little sign up for such a long time without wanting to change your posture or just move, in general.
I am an INFJ and literary love ISFP. You guys are so adorable 😇
Really? I thought you guys hate me.
@@marad3351 no lol
This is prolly the best ISFP video I've seen so far. There are some painful truths but also a great reminder. Especially the part where we can be easily taken advantage of, true in my case.
Thank you so much for this! Great content, loved it!
You are brilliant man. Thanks for your insight.
My ISFP brother is very forgetful. He literally walks out of the house and drives away - then comes back in 5 mins forgetting what he left in the house. This has happened thousands of times.
He is a musician / songwriter. Brilliant guitarist - Can do things with a guitar that push the limits (like tapping the strings in a beautiful and harmonic way, but holding the guitar in a strange angle in order to achieve it). I think Jimmy Hendrix wa an ISFP, wasnt he? My bro does that kind of thing too.
He once found a cave and noticed that the wall of the cave had cup sized holes in it that he could make a sound from if he slapped his hand over it. He then noticed the pitch for different holes and made a song out of tapping the different holes to create music. It was fascinating. Perfect rhythm. He paints like a combination of Van Gogh and Picasso.
He once told me a story about someone who stole is spot at a parking lot... it was as if his body just rose up out of the seat - uncontrolled.. he literally burst out the door and stood raging at the driver next to his window. The gap between feeling and impusle action is almost non-existent with him.
He's also a great liar. He lies a lot (from this INFP perspective). Maybe it has something to do with what you were saying about Se parent... his image is very important to him (unlike myself)
C awesome!
I just wanted you to know how impressed with this video I am. I met a woman 8 or 9 years ago who was going into the field of mental health and therapy and she told me of MB tests and encouraged me to take it and finally just a few months ago I did and found that I am this personality type which I had no idea would end up being the artist type. I was very pleased to discover this because honestly I didn't and still don't know much about the different types but identify myself as an artist and have always considered myself this first and foremost above all other things going back to my earliest memories as a child. Even today, I am working on visual art and my biggest passion is making realistic paintings from oils which I see as the most important pursuit and objective in my life. Thank you! This was so helpful and I learned so much from watching this! Lastly, I also found the unconscious, sub-conscious, Super Ego stuff VERY interesting I am practically certain now that my girlfriend/partner is an ESFJ though I don't think she shares the same kind of enthusiasm about MB testing that I do. However, I think If I showed her this, she might suddenly become compelled to changer her mind... lol. Peace. Very well done!!!
In the first 5 minutes, I understood what he was talking about without feeling judged. I definitely agree with everything this guy is saying.
I'm ISFP and my friend whose ISTJ is obsessed with myers briggs stuff and she recommended me you and watched all your videos. She classified me as either esfp or isfp.
As an ISFP it is true I love to do all the arts. I play piano and sing and like to draw. All my notes have doodles on them :,D
It is also true I like to take care of my appearance not for me, but for others so they don't bully me lol because before when I didn't hit the gym, do my hair and makeup, I would always get insulted so that's why I take care of it.
It's cool how Nicki Minaj is ISFP too! I love her.
Not trying to advertise but check out my singing video from a my first year in highschool on my channel 😤
I'M AN ISFP CAT LOVER!!
I'm an ISFP dog lover hehe
My favorite art is when my dad made a bathroom in my attic room. It was a beautiful soothing seagreen with sandy tiles and creamy shower curtain. It felt like a hotel bathroom (though we had to wall it off before selling our house since qq haha) and I never accept gifts at heart (recession guilt) until later but for my 18th bday he gold pawned a heart charm bracelet for me and it was beautiful. 🙂 my favorite art is how he looked and played with us when we were tiny little kids surprising us, pulling tricks, and playing and smiling.
I have taken many personality test through-out my life and I have always got infj, but listening to you describe isfp, i can so relate to it and makes me think I am actually an isfp.
LMAOOHH! "At risk of giving into group thinking", so true. Following the crowd. OMG you even nailed it with the ISFP+*SFJ chemistry/relationships! I'm an ISFJ & my best friend is an ISFP (from what we know). Funny. You really know what you're talking about.
I don't follow the crowd, the crowd follows me u.u
I don't think so. Isfp follows him/herself due to big Fi in the top
You are spot on! I am an ISFP and you are one of the only ones that goes in depth and you're always creepily spot on!
I get that a lot...
For a very long time I was mistyped as an ESFP until I took the cognitive test twice months apart and tested ISFP. I relate to this much much more than the ESFP description. You are on point with this
21:17 *teleports behind you* heh nothing personnel kid
Thank you! I feel like i know myself more now and i feel like i’m not alone in this...
I'm a isfp & I did dance all though school & Loved it. My first real job was as a cake decorator, then as a personal trainer & now I have a Etsy store & create digital art where I sell my art on products such as canvases, decorative pillows, rugs, prints. 😊 I related with a lot of this info!
You have some great points. The point about how we "feel" about things is so important. My main guide in making any decision is determining if it "feels" right to me. If I'm holding myself up to my own standards. I think its good to note that I feel clumsy at expressing my deepest thoughts and feelings verbally, I wonder if that is an ISFP thing as well?
Aye it is
I appreciate the video. I’m fairly new to the MBTI, and was first typed as an INFP, but over time I realized there were many things that didn’t line up. Now I believe I’m an ISFP, and one of the many reasons was my terribly bad memory. I’ve really been shocked by how bad my memory is, and I don’t mind telling people. I have just chalked it up to all the preoccupations I have in my mind with my Fi. I appreciate you showing how it’s probably my Se that’s contributing to this.
This should be taught in schools.
Thank you for your time and effort! It was a very short 25 minutes watching this..
As an ISFP, I do agree with everthing you said .. I am a software developer and my motivation is so low when I get assigned a task that doesn't rely on my imagination.. On the other hand, I become extremely motivated and hardworking when I get a task with a lot of freedom to add my touch (as doing a GUI without a prototype so I can get creative with my thoughts)
Just to confirm that being artistic can be applied to all sorts of fields!
About the concept of "truth": I'm an ISFP and I claim I value the actual, objective truth :) I smile because I know you will disagree. I'm VERY frustrated in general about personal "truths" and beliefs perceived as "truth" when I'm having discussions with people, makes you want to scream, it's as some live in an alternate reality. I_want_THE_truth, whithout knowing yet what it is or if I like it. Truth based on scientific evidence, concrete facts - the only things which are true in this world. However, someone else should preferrably get it for me or think it out, but I definitely do not want only a truth that suits me or that I like, I hate the thought of fooling myself in any way, I want reality. I'm very unreligious, I'm not at all spiritual, very down to earth, but I'm creative, very much a senser, I'm introverted and I'm perceiving. Used to think I was a thinker too, but as I've learn more through your videos I think a large part of it has actually been 'feeling', a word that I have difficulties interpreting as a non-native speaker.
And a big thanks by the way for your very interesting and informative channel. I prefer learning by having someone telling me to that of reading, I can take it in much more efficiently that way and hopefully remember parts of it too :) Yes, bad memory for facts I agree on!
have you looked at ISTP?
Yes, not me..can't really be a thinker. And I'm not inventive, nor diligent, and not 'see it through' either - I start things but don't always finish. ISFP fits me the best, and it could be nurture that has formed me (studies in the scientific field etc), OR the subconscious that shows through (?), not so good at this stuff yet. Another thing that bothers me a bit is that "we" would be totally oblivious to people's bad intentions...I'm rather overly suspicious of people's motives (though maybe _because_ I sense that I'm vulnerable there and nobody's there to protect me?). Overall though I feel a lot more rational than the stereotypic ISFP sounds. Perhaps Te stronger than average(?)Logic is also importand to me, hate it when someone is being very unlogical. Maybe nurture there too, grew up in a family where those were kind of lacking, so maybe I had to develop them.
I just got this result on similarminds.com, result "unclear" . Fi and Se are as expected, the rest does sound ok to me, but won't fit any one type of course. Would that be my super ego messing with me?
Fi (Introverted Feeling) (80%)
Se (Extroverted Sensing) (80%)
Ne (Extroverted Intuition) (75%)
Ti (Introverted Thinking) (55%)
Fe (Extroverted Feeling) (45%)
Si (Introverted Sensing) (45%)
Te (Extroverted Thinking) (25%)
Ni (Introverted Intuition) (25%)
salukyh the way you have described yourself sounds exactly like me! Couldn’t figure out if I was an ISTP or ISFP
Before I knew MBTI I (INFP) dated an ISFP. Worst mistake ever.
Constantly asking what we thought about in the relationship immediately triggering both our Ti demons.
Gotta find myself a nice ENFJ or INFJ ;-;
God I am dating an ISFP right now and I did the same exact fucking thing, mannnnnn
infps are cringe bruh
dumb isfp~
@@habermanmusic We are pretty cringe ngl
@@RoseyCreations I mean... we're also cringe tbh
I know for a FACT my memory SUUUUCKS! At work when my boss asks me what I have done that morning, I honestly cannot remember. It's like I have early onset dementia at 23!! Its really frustrating
Mum confirmed as ISFP. Growing up as an intp (and one of those hyperactive ones, not the quiet in their own heads ones), i drove her nuts. I still drive her nuts. She's all horoscopes and things, so i grew up just thinking she was an archetypal Scorpio. I havent finished this (ive barely started), but that rage, man. It's a long burn. I know i'm a poke the bear person "why?, but why? why that? But didnt you just say..." Terrifying when they pop. As an INTP, i never had that wisdom to know the 'looks'. So as a kid it was question, question, BOOM!. So im looking forward to figuring this infinitely loving, semi-patient, wise, opinionated woman out and how to finally figure out how to say the right thing so she knows i appreciate her.
Small tiny and slightly embarrassing story of the Ti demon. Once upon a time a poor hungry intp waif (13 years old - basic theft) nicked 2 pounds from his mums purse so he could (i suppose since it was his interest at the time), buy dumb NFL trading cards with random helmets the next day at school (it was taking off in the uk at the time) . Mum knew INTP had done it (INTP roped in far more moral and kind sister on the shenanigans - who also stole 2 quid). ISFP mum dealt with this incredibly rationally: Im going for a nap, if it isnt back there by the time i get back (im pretty sure all the ISFPs know whats coming), somethings going to happen. Well, 'shes an idiot. Whats she going to do... (sister immediately put the money back)?
Apparently, get in a car and turn me into roadkill after she chased me out of the house like a fekkin banshee (i have a vision of her running out with a frying pan in her hand, but i think ive made that up). Even at the time i never took this seriously. But almost 30 years later, she still believes she stepped into that car in that exact moment with the full intention to splatter me on her windshield.
Again, to be clear, she's a bit embarrassed (possibly even ashamed) by this (it genuinely feels like a confession on her part). As an intp though, its still funny, i'll never understand how close i was to death. I really love her though. Who else lets intp's turn their room into an absolute fekkin state and just think 'he's just an idiot'. We both think the other is an idiot.
I wish i knew what mbti was in 1987 (id have wriggled out of this easy peasy).
I am ISTP living with ISFP husband. It can get "funny" sometimes.... 😅
I've never felt so understood before in my life before this video.
This was extremely mind opening. The way u explained it was perfect.
-an isfp
I’m an INTP but I used to do a lot of art when I was younger. So I guess I was developing my ISFP super ego. It’s weird, because it feels like a second ego. Especially, because I have only now begun to develop my ENTJ unconscious.
The accuracy is so real for me.
LOL I'm an ISFP and I'm so forgetful, in fact I can't learn things by theory alone, I have to learn by doing, by having an experience with what I'm learning or I'll forget it in a hot minute.
Recently I was classified as an ISFP and I gotta say I'm quite happy finally knowing who or what I am and learned so many reasons why my relationships failed. I was always falling for NTPs.
Thank you so much. You've been an angel in my life
I never felt so attacked about my forgetfulness. i have a thing about always forgetting where i placed my wallet and my brother points out how forgetful i am like how do i constantly keep misplacing my wallet. anyways love the video!
My god man, you are a legend!!! Everything you said in this video was so much like me, which was verification that I am an ISFP!!! Thank you, I’ve been trying to find out my type for so long!!!!🙏
Lol for the longest time I thought that I'm an infp but like *finally* i found this vid that describes isfp with such clearness and little big words that made my head hurt. Like because i don't like conflict and tend to go with group thinking i thought maybe i am an infp but then everything in this vid resonates with me so yeah! Just wanna say thank you for describing it so perfectly and easy to discern (i need real life example to understand things lol)
I am an INFP but I just found out that my mom is ISFP. And Im hoping through this video, I can understand her better and make her feel more accepted.
The shower thing is so true !
Space Folk our Si is worse than inferior
7:58 oh my God that point!! You put it really spot on! I've been telling the same thing to my friends!! Beautiful!!
Love the effort you put on the board
My mom is an ISFP, she has very artistic attitude on her clothes choices and taking photos, as well as massive mood swings. We used to quarrel so often due to her mood swings and going personal whenever I try to have a debate aka “what you think”. What’s even worse is, I’m an ENTJ a always start debates unintentionally and discards and definitely a thinker. 😂 And gosh, you were so true about the truth perception part, she’s pretty much all about emotions.
I'm always surprised by how in tune they are with the environment...and how introverted intuitive they are. They have incredible insights and they don't miss anything.
My partner is an ISFP, he makes jazz guitars and mandolins that sound utterly amazing, a master luthier and a beautiful musician. He is a man of love, and both the garden and all the animals that visit us , well they just love him. He will work with passion from dawn to dusk at whatever he loves, in rapture with his newest soundboard designs… always chasing the sound. He fluidly moves with grace through the physical world. He suffers immensely if feels forced to follow rules or someone else’s timetable, although whenever he has taken up other work his team quickly find what a skilled , responsive and hard worker he is- but not doing his real work, his passion, is …..painful.
you compare ISFP and INTP "demons" or rage mode quite a bit here so it's got me curious on how an INTP and ISFP would interact in a relationship? i hear it's not ideal but for personal reasons i' really invested/interested lol if you can't answer or make a video out of this question, i just wanna let you know this is the best/my favourite psycho analytical channel on yt anyway and hope ya never stop
I have a lecture on this coming out shortly.
@@CSJoseph please make a specific ISFP/INTP relationship video! It would be awesome
Funny, you should ask this. My parents are an ISFP/INTP relationship, so it can definitely happen. But, it's turned out badly. They don't communicate, they don't relate on any level, they don't try to understand where the other is coming from. I'd honestly rather they got divorced, but they've been married for over thirty years because they don't want to mess with their children's stability (not that it's been stable anyway b/c of how their individual types work). Surprisingly, my INTP dad is the romantic one, but my ISFP mom doesn't care about that all. It's really odd, and I wouldn't recommend it at all.
Cool, relaxed and interesting when things are going good, absolutely horrific nightmare when any problem arises...
Their small hard-drive means they don’t hold grudges, which is amazing to an SFJ.
this is a really good observation. no long-term memory means no long-term grudges. super interesting how a perceived con has a pro..
When the cat jumps off of something high, does your son yell, "TIMBERRRR!" like a lumberjack?
Great drawing, BTW.
lololollll, that’s for sure the reason the cat was named as so. what an amazing name!
ISFP here and you had me laughing at how accurate everything was 😂 I love to know all the good and the not so good so I'm glad I came across your very in depth analysis of my type and I'll be watching other videos for sure. Cognitive functions and personality types is my current obsession to "master" 😜
When I first watched this video I kind of fell in love with you, ngl. xD It felt like the first time that someone actually understood me without even knowing me. All my life I was misunderstood and was triggered by all the injustice - still am. But now I surround myself with friends that care and make an effort to understand me. And if I still feel bad I come back to this video every now and then to feel understood and good again.
I've been through a lot of bs in my 26 years and luckily am not as naive as in the beginning - also thanks to my INTJ father who always tried to open my eyes for things unseen. It also happened just a few days ago when my INFP friend an me went for a walk in the city when someone approached us and introduced himself very friendly. I'm way too kind so instead of ignoring him I started listening because I hate making others feel bad. But I still saw right through the patterns and methods he was using to make me feel sympathetic for his cause (he talked like 30 minutes about it). Until he wanted us to sign up then and there for a subscription of 15€ minimum per month. (I'm still a student so I don't really earn a lot) So I told him I would like to take a flyer with me and look into it further at home on my laptop because I didn't feel comfortable doing it at a booth. But he and his colleagues got verbally aggressive all of a sudden and tried to pressure us into it by making us feel like the bad people for not helping etc. And told us they don't have flyers.
That's when we just went away and I needed almost an hour to calm myself and let off steam about that whole situation. I knew that he was trying to sell me stuff from the beginning and I knew I wouldn't be buying any of it. But at the end I still felt very bad and needed such a long time to convince myself that I'm not a bad human being. The thought alone makes me feel sick. I'm still learning how to be more selfish and not think about how others might feel - because who does for me? (not talking about friends and family)

Very interesting. Your really knowledgeable! Dont know about my love of art but natural beauty of the outdoors gets me chocked up.
Being outdoors can be a form of art, like rock climbing.
So true. Just looking at the clouds from all times of the day is so damn beautiful!!!! 😃
