there's something to it, maybe that's why we keep moving forward

Honestly, that hit home. Developed an addiction a couple years ago and fell into depression. When things started getting less busy and work oriented/focused AKA christmas break, I decided to go to therapy, and the second I took the decision to go there was the second I decided to get myself out of that miserable state I was in. Kinda lost myself in this post but it really talked to me so yeah. Basically, yes, we dont stop, we dont cry until we get that small break and realize what's been going on.

omg this! 😪 I developed so many health issues because of this. And the worst part is, I don't even know how to control/prevent it. I would think that I am doing perfectly fine, and then all of a sudden I'd get a visual migraine. 😩

Same.

Lol People always ask "Are you excited about graduation?" I'm like "yeah" but there's no fanfare.

@@margaretgaby4506 I wasn't either. But when I got my degree I was really happy, also my mom hype...some food, etc. Real thing lasted like a minute and then I was asking about Master's degree.

I am an ENTJ and this is written on my notebook

@@esrabapir771 :-D

YES!

Haha yes I agree. I seriously told my friend “I’ve been kind of mad lately- so if there’s someone you need revenge on, nows the time lol Bc I want to DESTROY EVERYTHING THAT MOVES”

I 100% relate to this. We're the people who will take our Fi friends out for dinner - they might find a problem with their meal, but brush it off so as not to "cause a fuss". _We're_ the people who will call the waiter and make the complaint on their behalf. It's not a "fuss" to get the quality you've paid for.

@@roisinnigcrainn7722 omg this is just straight up facts

Same. I hold grudges like a mf too. I don't win fights. I win wars. Guaranteed.

NOO BUT FR THIS is so true

Oh, this is so true! I feel your friend. We (ENTJs) really enjoy spending a lot of things all the time. Funny, we are not aware how we were able to manage those stuff. We just don't want to waste our time and energy. 😂

I think if they would do the research, ENTJs would be most associated with polymaths.

Sounds like ENTJ jumper, leading with Te Se. These are the more extroverted ENTJs. There are the subdued ones with double feminine FF functions with Te Ni, often mistaken as lead introverted perceiving types.

@EXCEPTION So many things to achieve and so little time to live...

Blessing first

Man this is so true. Living in the ‘grey’ areas of life is a process

Hey! You might not have another objective right now, but you MUST be proud of yourself for achieving your first goal! The fact that you want to achieve more things, doesn't make the already achieved things less significant, so you are not a failure!

Duuuude! Yes very true!

This is the truth.

Truth. Ppl were like congrats you did this that and is great. I'm like.... yeah.... moving on to the next point.....😂

Gosh, does that explain a lot about why I haven't been getting any of the self help books finished very quickly. Skip the b.s., move along, move along - okay, I've mostly learned this, set it down and start another book. "I will finish you later." Yeah, 2.5 weeks, months or years later. Or, maybe it does. I just took the inventory again and it now said ESTJ but I am told they are often at least one letter off from right and I used to always get INTJ and INFJ.

Wait....thats sound moreee like ESTJ...

Life is a chess game where everyone is your peice and your enemies.

In 1968, the MPAA established the Code and Rating Administration, or CARA (later renamed the Classification and Rating Administration), which began issuing ratings for films exhibited and distributed commercially in the United States to help parents determine what films are appropriate for their children. Since the rating system was first introduced in November 1968, it has gone through several changes, including the addition of a PG-13 rating.[57][58] The ratings system is completely voluntary, and ratings have no legal standing.[59][60] Instead, theater owners enforce the MPAA film ratings after they have been assigned,[61] with many theaters refusing to exhibit non-rated films.[62] An unrated film is often denoted by "NR", such as in newspapers, although this is not a formal MPAA rating.[63] In 2006, the film This Film Is Not Yet Rated alleged that the MPAA gave preferential treatment to member studios during the process of assigning ratings,[64] as well as criticizing the rating process for its lack of transparency. In response, the MPAA posted its ratings rules, policies, and procedures, as well as its appeals process, online.[65] According to a 2015 study commissioned by CARA, ninety-three percent of parents in the U.S. find the rating system to be a helpful tool.[66] The ratings currently used by the MPAA's voluntary system are:[67]

What are you saying?! there is no relation between how our faces look like and our personalities😂😂😂

my closest friend is ENTJ and she can't understand why everyone doesn't appreciate what she does for them. lol Me ENFP........ I'm her human motive council. She comes to me to understand why people are doing and being as they do and be, without the right or wrong of it.

@@scrillion6 I think I could help, she might be playing bad guy to help people but when there cured she tells them yep I was a cunt on purpose look how happy you are now , they never believe us .. Yeah sure you was, but its true we really don't care as long as it gets results.

@Duy N.K I know two who have that same issue, because they find stumping for that degree a useless waste of time and irrelevant.

Indeed, well said :) Godbless

I believe entj are the least self sacrificing people yet better more selfish I m one so I can tell

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 a wise choice! Also you may not have empathy but compassion! People who lack compassion are immature!

It's always hard to be ENTJ, because when you take the lead in an emergency situation and do what really helps you solve the problem, people accuse you of pushing them or not thinking about their feelings. But you were simply efficient and it worked not only for you, but for everyone who was in the team with you. If you had not taken control into your own hands, the team would not have been able to cope with this problem, because sometimes democracy does not work and delays the time for decision-making. But you will be considered an insensitive tyrant.

I can't agree more with this opinion. Let's get this straight, I know hundreds of people around me. I have 0 (Zero) friends. Fact that I will never get any friend is so certain because I know it (my fucking Ni). How do I know it? Because of what you said, I have issues with the fundemental of friendship concept and what people attain to it. I can't just fit in it and I think I never will fit in it either.. So now what? Am I banished into loneliness? Well it's not that I crave for someone's presence but when it hits me IT HITS HARD that I really feel the existence of someone but I just don't know do I really need it to fill the emotional gap by again utilizing the relationship (friend or girlfriend) for the sake of my mental health or just for the sake of a bond. Everything is so easy and hard for me at the same time. I go outside doing stuff such as socializing or drinking from month to month other than that I've been focused on my job for the last 9 months because every single minor step of my job requires time for it and everything is chained to each other so I can't finish working when I get to home and when I can't finish I can't feel relaxed or accomplished. FUCK.

This is what I realised when covid started. I don't actually enjoy spending time with people just for the sake of it, unless we are actually doing something. Makes sense why the only time I'd meet some of my friends was if we were going hiking, rock climbing, or any other activity. I even used covid as an excuse to not meet people for over a year, because it would be a waste of time. If I am texting them, I can still do what I was planning on doing, and be productive, but if I meet them in a cafe or similar, I have to waste time to go there, waste time to return home, and focus all my attention on them, which to me seems utterly pointless.

Same. I limit friendships simply because I don't want to be fake and act interested in their feelings when I'm clearly not. When I was younger I used to invest my time actively listening to serve the friendship, but I'm just not interested in spending time doing things I don't wanna do. Specifically, listening to others who want to complain but not solve the issue which is my biggest pet peeve.

@@lanapapalii definitely agree with this. If you just want a shoulder to cry on, I am not your person. 😅

Unhealthy, I'm an ENTJ and i do not feel like that. You can efficiently have fun, efficiently seek meaning, efficiently deal with emotions. Efficiency doesn't just mean 'work', that's childish

I'm with you

Totally get this. I'll always be like "oh I thought we're done with this part" whenever people seemed to take forever just to get to the point about what their aims were, or tried to explain themselves (usually ++ doses of manipulative twists to it to get me into doing what they want). I always have to remind myself to be patient and just let them have at it (except if they're taking too much of my time and being inefficient about it), because you know, it's a relationship and that's a safe way to ensure I'm not being unfair/wrong in my assessments about a person; but it does gets tiring very quickly whenever people get into the same kind of narratives (that they're special unique beings, and no I don't get them. The most exasperating are the ones obvious in their wishes to be seen as holier than others, bc the insincerity stank!) I really honestly thought we are all so obvious, being you know, human being. We are calculable, using the right approaches and methods. Being wishy washy about those things are just plain time-wasting, let actions speak them!

ENTJ: I really need to get my work published and recognized. *works tirelessly* INFP: But what does all of this mean anyway?

I wonder if it works for entj female and infp male

@@downsjmmyjones101 **stares into the camera in INFP**

In this comment section I have started to wonder, have I failed as ENTJ bc I have manually learned to respect humans and count their feeling when they don’t block my plan. I just set goals for people I care and then act so that I help them to reach those goals. If I respect one I of course won’t decide what they want but I decide they must become something and I won’t act way that prevents their success. This has lot to do with the fact that I am in school where people are still developing and in very weak state. Bc I don’t have given authority (and my school system often tries to hold me back) I must sometimes even adapt. Basically the point was, give people around you goals and then don’t intervene.

Me too! Growing up in the 80s was a little easier I'm sure, but it's crazy how I dominate my spheres of influence. I have a power kitchen. Haha

Aye my ENTJ elder sister, shake off that dust and clutch what ever is in front of you that you find fascinating. Everything isn't easy to switch up on the drop of a dime, I get that. But the journey ain't over until you're dead ya feel me? If you want to bust into a new thing at 65 75 95 and you've got your wit about you, then go for it.

@@AG-wd7ng @The Sharingan Knight I made this comment as a youngling with little information on MBTI dichotomies. Turns out I am cognitively an ENTJ. I was just extremely unhealthy on Fi grip and had poor self regulation. It was kind of surprising because at first I look like an IxxP type. Last few monthsI have worked on discipline and self control. Something clicked in me I dont know what, maybe Ni auxiliary is developing? Maybe I have come to terms with my problems? Whatever it maybe I am glad I can think straight now and work. Deleted discord, instagram, reddit. Best descision ever. Hope ya'll do great.

@@silkysille I am happy for you, that sounds great! Can I ask how you worked on controlling and disciplining yourself?p

@@AG-wd7ng Know what you want to do, where you want things to go; and whats holding you back from doing so. To move forward you need to have a strong present. You cannot control time, timetable is ineffective cause there is always something coming up, instead just assign short term goals first to get used to doing stuff. A goal for a day, a goal for the week. Its kinda hard but things do pick momentum and it becomes a bit easier. know the problem, know whats causing it; first descend solve then ascend. Thats how its been working for me. And dont consume useless infomation, this here is a brain power killer. Journals and planners do help. Don't lose sight of what you want things to be.

Don't worry, just be low-key intolerable to your children. I'm sure they wouldn't have a problem with that.

I'm not sure if this is an ENTJ trait but I also have an intense sense of responsibility. This has been a useful trait when parenting. I'm not the most sensitive or patient parent but I'm fiercely dedicated to my kids.

@@BenDonahower It could probably be an ESTJ trait, since it's "responsibility" towards your children. I don't think ENTJs take responsibility towards other people and that they often care about their own goals.

@@freshprince69 Hm, I wonder what it is then because I'm very strongly ENTJ. Perhaps it's because I look at family success as a long-term goal?

@@BenDonahower Idk about it man, but in my perspective ENTJs don't comply with anything related to emotions. And "intense responsibility" is related to emotions and care. I just think ESTJs would more likely to have such responsibility due to their sensing trait for conventional ideas. However I do think that ENTJs could have that responsibility as well, I just presented my previous reply to you based on my perspectives.

Remember even scheduled time for relaxation can help you reach your goal too. Being better rested will help you think clearer and have more energy to chase your goal. Slow and steady wins the race.

Oscar Goodwin23 I need to schedule more resting time. Thank you 😊

Curious ENTJ here.. what do you do for work? I'm trying to figure out what career or business to get into.

Jensy Dominguez I’m a Technology Consultant. Perfect job for me. I get to strategize all day and fix things.

Emma N I’d like to PM you and ask more, but it looks like KZfaq disabled the feature. What do you consult tech companies on? How did you get started?

We are all in this community together! A better life for one person should be a better life for the community! A worse life for a person is worse life for the community! When you treat someone poorly it comes back at you, because you are part of the community!

I do, too. The problem is, in the end of the day, I used to ask myself, do I really a kind guy, caring for everyone in my team? Or I get close to and know them better just because I need to know the power and weakness of all my pieces to play efficiently and planning ahead? This gray area is where I keep questioning my own sense of "right and wrong" as a human.

Well that caring for them is actually your way of playing them as chess pieces since you have discovered that it is better for the work

It is important for people to take care of their health no matter the personality and understanding your emotions and when do they come from ISN'T a waste of time! Happy for you!🙂

@@lovewho I have the same feeling of like doing more. I go to the gym, meditate, journalling, cold showers. I obviously dont do these everyday but im triying.

I connect with this. You're not alone. Also, I feel like I'm kind of not an ENTJ at times when I'm *slightly* procrastinating or something like that, as everyone drives hard the fact that they're intensely efficient (which I do feel, but... one more episode. Come on).

I see it sometimes I can be very very minimalistic, other times I can be very very materialistic I don’t know if this is because I’m a Sagittarius ENTJ or what

Well said! 👏👏👏 It is important to deserve your breaks and to be happy with what you have and to be rational!

@@user-tw2nk9lj6r wow. You are an entj. Nice!!! It's hard living in a world where no one understands an entj but another entj. We are so few and far between. I have always deserved my breaks.

I had an ego death just recently. Had to humble myself from thinking I could fix people. .lived in disappointment from betrayals. It hindered me. Hard. I bounced back quick though. And I will live the rest of my life in peace and success. As. Success comes easy to me. Because I am disciplined. And honest. And care about being a good person. I know I'm a leader. I don't need credit. I thought I needed people to get off their ass. But I'm finding now that I got off mine. Mentally. I'm finding the right like minded people. I have great motivation and inspiration. I do not live in jealousy or insecurity. If I want better. I do better.

(INFP) Have an ENTJ father... Nuff said.

It is important to understand their intentions. We are very much mis interpreted by more sensitive types. But there are many that love our directness and honesty and no bullshit!

I've been told I was being over bearing ... when really, i just cared . My friend was making bad choices in choosing a car by letting her emotions get in the way of making a rational decision and I saw it. All I suggested was looking. Perhaps give her time to think about it by the end of our shifts. She said that to me and it pissed me off. So shes in her feels about not knowing what to do and basically projecting . And I was genuinely just trying to give her time but now I'm frustrated so I probably do look like an asshole. When I am not!!! I see people bad mouth entjs. First of all i dont even know if I've ever personally met another entj . But being quite self aware of myself , i know for a fact people have the wrong idea. Did you know entjs "walk around thinking they're bad people" subconsciously? Because we have been misunderstood our whole lives. Because we dont understand feelings "like that" it's not like we wallow in self pity. We actually go above and beyond to help others on a level much higher than people would imagine . So I guess we tend to look like "assholes" ? Because others dont understand? Idk about other entjs but I can assure you I'm highly aware that WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER! and I am very passionate and driven in doing everything in the most efficient and logical way possible. If you have a way that is more logical to doing something. I'm all ears! I'm definitely in no way shape or form above constructive criticism. So how does that make me egotistical? It doesn't. But I've noticed others own insecurities flare and project my way. And I know I'm innocent. Oh well. Sorry for the rant. Lol. God speed

@@gabepetro358 in true INFP fashion... I feel kinda crummy now. I should've said that my experience was not the best and that doesn't extend outside of that. But it's too late now. Yours was a good explanation, giving insight into and from and actual ENTJ. Thank you for taking the time to do so.

@@PhotoRubio oh. Dont feel bad. Lol. I can almost see how we can be taken the wrong way. I do get it.

Good point! Also that last quote made me laugh ~ Nathan

Self-awarness is the first step of self-improvement!
