Become an Actualized INFP with Erik Thor!
My name is Erik Thor and I have always had a lot of love for INFPs. You have all helped me more than you know and your energy continues to be an inspiration to me in my own life. I wanted to make this channel because I don't really have time to on my main channel anymore. This channel is dedicated to talking about the INFP - introverted, intuitive, feeling, perceiving personality type, but without stereotypes.
The goal is to help you get the most out of personal growth and find your own path in life. I'm against labels and for insight into the unique things that make you who you are, and to me, the MBTI is just a tool. I use Jungian psychology to help guide people in the goal of individuation, integration, and personal growth.

oh yes.. I just turned 31 and finally decided to live my life constantly reminding myself these words - radical responsibility, courage, openness, trust in the flow of the universe 🙏 also that failing equals learning not the end of the world. I think the combination of idealism, perfectionalism with oneself, fear of conflict and not wanting to be forcefully tied down in something is very tricky but also what an INFP really has to address in themselves in order to feel fulfilled

NOOO Erik I’m gonna cry, when you say that we’ll just be passive and let other people make the mistakes… you’re describing the very way I’m living! I’m so lost in my dark side!! 😫

Thank you. This is so accurate for me and what I needed to hear today. The things that I truly care deeply about, that represent who I really am and what I can bring to the world are exactly the things that are hardest for me to act on and take responsibility for. Because I can’t control the consequences in the real world the way I can control in my vision.

Yes, I never understood the warning against inertia when I read other personality analysis. Until certain events forced serious self reflection for a long period. I have to say your pretty spot on, I won’t compete because I don’t want to win bc I believe it will cause discord but then it shapes my circumstances in an unfavorable way anyway. Sigh.

Ah, my man! Long time no see! :) Welcome to the (my) dark side! Heard a wise man saying: "If you stare long enough into the abyss, you will see the light and if you don't see it, you haven't been looking long enough"

3:22 even though I haven't finished watching yet.. it is a scary idea to make your idealism come true. The undeveloped ones don't have any idea of the wants, desires and needs of other people. We doubt ourselves because we are not always right. I wish I could give an example but the comment would get lengthy anyway... Soon when we learn that our idealism shouldn't be surrounded by only our principles but we also learn to include others principles and factor others ideas.. good luck with spending six decades finally gathering all the knowledge and executing your ideas fella infps.

To be able to implement systems the right way we'll also need the eligible people to put work together (co-operate) the right way. And unfortunately it's near impossible to manage people into working together with the ideas like communism. Us humans are inclined to push our true agendas in between the progress which results into the collapse of the over all idea of the system. Quite complicated for my slow brain to process. If I am wrong anybody is free to correct me. I only want to know the right thing.
