Sort of fun that seemingly quite a few INTPs (glad I am not the only one) talk about "humans" or "human beings" while excluding themselves (by mistake or on purpose) 😂

Things INTPs love: saw an INTP video right after waking up😄

"INTPs can work 20 hours a day on something they love" My coworker arriving in the morning : "Did you work all night ? Did you eat, drink, sleep ?" Me : "Wait it's morning ? Eating, drinking, sleep ? Ah sh*t I knew I forgot something important... About that, where are the toilets again ?"

Finally. A vid I can send people when they ask about all my tabs. "I'm not abandoning projects half way, I'm perfecting ten things at once. Sit down and watch, you might learn something about a high functioning diverging convergent." Thankyou Nathan.

That "I mean us." was on point 😂

Your ability to understand what makes people tick is mindboggling. Also you have a smooth style that is so easy to listen to. Your page is one of the few where I always feel like I'm learning. As an INTP myself, with most people I eventually get the impression that they run out of original insights and I stop viewing their content. So far, you seem to bucking this trend...well done!!!

Intp here. I can't , won't, and literally CANNOT follow a recipe. It's not that I refuse to; it's that I can't bring myself to do it. It's like slowly killing my soul if I follow the directions and carefully measure. I learned the fixed system of cooking and baking when I was younger. With the knowledge of ratios of ingredients and temps, I must create my own food, using a recipe for ideas only. My cakes don't always come out moist . Sometimes they are too wet. I don't care. It was the process and I decided in the moment what and how much to pour in. A fixed system that I must change, play with, explore

Easily one of the best description/explanation of the mind of INTPs, everything was on point, especially the part about the "eureka moment", it truly is the best feeling in the world.

I have conversations spiral into areas that seem completely unrelated and it’s incredibly satisfying when I join them all together into a seamless coherent narrative. People often say to me that they can never believe how wide ranging our conversations can go. Until I knew I was an INTP has thought that I was just scattered brained but now I see that I see patterns and at times things look like they fit and don’t but when they do I know it. I can make crazy predictions and they come true.

The satisfaction of finding a field with a system that is consistent and fixed, while still having a potential breakthrough that can be created through ''creativity,'' can make INTPs "rationally insane." Sometimes, they can also intuitively ''feel'' that that field is perfect from them.

Things you love as an INTP -Fixed systems -concretising knowledge -schedule-less-ness -Between the tabs -puzzles

One of the things I notice that gives me joy is making concepts or pieces of information simpler, it's like finding the perfect shape to keep it easier

As an INTP I’ve always like chaos, without necessarily knowing why. It was always fun, but I figured that there wasn’t necessarily a reason why. Know I think I know why. I think that the part I like is figuring it out. Making peace within the chaos, and being able to navigate it without much issue. In a world of chaos all you need is to understand it’s pattern and you can avoid it thoroughly.

As an ENTP married to an INTP for 30 years, I can testify that your comments about the difference with respect to systems is 100% accurate.

Brilliant as always. I love how you so eloquently managed to say "loves fixed systems because they're deeply insecure & fear making mistakes more than perhaps even murder, but they'd think of all the ways they'd screw that up too & end up not doing it." 🖤 INTP

I'm an intp and this is pretty accurate. I love to look into the stuff I find interesting and jump between these things I find interesting constantly. I like mbti because it helps me to understand people a little better and after just a few hours of it I began being able to fairly accurately type people around me after a little bit which helps me understand them a bit better

I'm an interior painter. This line of work has allowed me the opportunity to spend my hours, learning a multitude of subjects per day. The monotony drives me crazy, but I can't resist the ability to absorb knowledge. It also helps that I work alone.

*Chef's kiss approval from an INTP

I really had doubts on if I was really an INTP but after days of obsessing on this, it just clicked that I've been researching things on this over and over further proving that I am one ☠️

OMG, I am obsessed with personality theory for the reasons stated above. I wish I understood people in order to predict behavior and it takes all of the surprises out of things. You're amazing, love watching your videos.

2150 tabs lost them like 2 weeks back, when restarting firefox they were gone and only the last 25 could be recovered a burden has lifted from my shoulders, but it still hurts 😔

Big fan man. I'm not an INTP, but love gathering patterns. Earlier today I was having an existential crisis imbued with a little nihilism, then watched an anime which oddly tied into it all. This spurred the idea for a story I started writing, which helped spur the idea for other outlets. Interesting how easily things can connect like that

Being an INTP I know this to all be very true. I am an aerospace engineer and the job I have seeked out allows me to be who I am. I get a lot of satisfaction from quietly, creatively problem solving using the very firm laws of maths and physics as described in this video. There is nothing in my fridge 🤣

Hello, INTP here fixed in your last petition A way to get more views from your already existing suscribers is to repeat the same kind of content you do, wich is what you've been doing, and it works, but if you want to target other type of people maybe changing the things a little bit can be beneficial For example, a lot of people may not know about the basics of the mbti (I'm from the spanish community and this year the topic just exploded on social media, but people often doesn't even know what the letters mean) so with those type of videos you can serve as a resource to other people and a starting point to understand the rest of your content since you are heavily based on the theory Also, the most common scenario are people interested in their own type, but there's also the side of the community that use personality types as a way to know how to deal other people, so videos like "How to seduce the XXXX" are great in that matter, so i reccomend to keep doing those! Also, more of a quastion, what happened to your enneagram series? Those few videos were great, and I've noticed since more people are joining the mbti community usually the next step for them is the enneagram, so if you can be their introduction to it (Either videos of the enneagram as a whole, explaining wings subtypes and tritypes or about a specific enneatype, or sketch videos, relationships between them, examples, how to integrate and what to do when desintegrate, etc) could open a door to new people into your channel I love your content man, you are one of the few to use the proper vocabulary and dig into what it does, keep doing it! Also another question, do you plan to make a video to explain loops and grips of the types? It could be a very helpful video to those who are in a bad place, just an idea

Well, I was skeptical about this personality classification thing but this is surprisingly accurate

Dude you must work so hard on these videos editing wise there’s like a cut at the end of every sentence, mad props to you!!

I'm incredibly osmotic when it comes to information. Especially when confronting topics I show interest in. I simply know. I've immersed myself with so many seemingly unrelated points as to create cogent arguments without actually having studied the material.

That‘s why I love learning about psychology , physics and the universe (dark matter in particular) because it can‘t be explained easily there is almost no end to be found wich makes me really happy…

A lot of my introversion kind of comes from understanding "the randomness of people" as a fixed system of chaos that is not to be relied upon. It's easier to identify needs, define goals, and make/measure progress on my own.

Omg this vid made me feel like someone was taking off all my clothes. I recognized every single theme and area of the INTP (me) to a tee. The tabs items is so true. I think that correlates to contextual thinking, and the ability of metacognition in ENFPs, INFPs, ENTPs, and INTPs. I taught myself a couple of complex systems, but before I did I Collected, classified, analyzed , and eventually after a long period of time I was able to put to use, and monetize. My biggest satisfaction was creating my own systems and implementing it within a global system. It was so much fun. Great vid.

this was great. I am currently into the overlaps and differences of the INTxs. Thanks.

I shall answer your call. Branch out to connect MBTI with relevant cultural topics. For example: MBTI types in Dune characters and are they consistent with assigned types. Any popular character analysis from MBTI point of view. Politics and MBTI. Another venue is to establish MBTI as something substantial and proven, as it is now viewed by most as some astrology substitute. This would require monitoring of relevant psychological papers and breaking them down to public to unerstand.

Things you love when you're an INTP... Videos about INTP :)

This video itself felt like a eureka moment, especially when you mentioned the "finding solutions to things" part. This is why I'm kind of horrible if someone wants to tell me about problems in their life, because I always feel like I need to suggest a solution, when really all they want is someone to listen without judgement or input, which I find hard to do. And also that bit about learning concepts, and then applying them in creative ways also resonates with me a lot.

I was listening to a podcast today that mentioned various topics that I’d been searching this week, without knowing that any of these topics would be mentioned. My mind was blown and this made me enjoy it even more.

Love how straight and without any "distractions" you made this video. I dont know if i like this because i think i suits the type or because im an intp myself... either way i like it. Well done

INTP here. To solve the problem of getting more subscribers: I dont like to be told what to do, so I rarely bother to click the subscribe button. But one time I saw a video (I can't remember what it was about but lets say spacetravel) but in the end a ninja showed up out of nowhere and did stunts and talked with a cool ninja voice and told me to subscribe. For like 5 seconds. Then he was gone. I was so baffled and amused that I subscribed instantly. So you can put something unexpected and funny in the end of the video that tells the audience to subscribe. And they just might. That's my two cents. Thank you for the videos!

Congrats to the KZfaq algorithm, this channel is definitely worth a subscription. 👏 You just validated my approach to my research. Thanks!

Well put. I'm not sure if this is a universal experience, but I find that I'm kind of fundamentally driven to figure things out... often stuff that seems useless but yields some general concept that I find amazing. It's like watching something like the Sixth Sense, where the twist at the end changes how you see everything else you've known. It's exciting. When I discover something genuinely fascinating, I will get up and walk around/discuss or debate it in my head (Ti), then discuss it with other people (Ne). I love XNTJs for that last step, because they have an entirely different but completely brilliant approach to information. I can't express how excited I get about learning perspective-changing information is and how very, very weird my friends likely think I am because of it.

I'll ponder your question & get back to you on that. No guarantee when. (INTP)

As an INFJ I can relate to the INTP's Ti . . . I have an INTP good friend, and the mix of my Ni, her Ne, and our shared Ti makes for some amazing conversations. I've learned just to let her brain run around like a squirrel, and offer insights where called for. Picking each other's brains is so much fun.

Thank you this was so accurate, you should do more INTP videos

Another big check mark. My eldest sister told me "You're all over the place." because I am talking about things that, to me, are very connected. My Aspergery son would go "That's too random." and then I would explain the connection and he'd go "Okay. Do that more often. Then it's not random." Also, I just realized that teh reason I did not finish this video, before, is that you mention "brain teaser" puzzles and that often INTPs love those, too ... and I went off to do an Anagram and then a Logic Puzzle and then started researching things related to the anagram and forgot that I wanted to find out if I was INTP or no. (sigh) I almost just did it again. Instead, I have interrupted myself twice, just to add to this comment.

Great information. Thank you!

3:09 that's literally my favorite quote

Yes to all that. All the things I love are that, derived from that, or that adjacent. For examples... Information. I know, this sounds basic, but really, this is one area where I'm more quantity over quality. Give me more information, and I'll create the quality. This is even more true where people are concerned. I hate guessing and wondering how people are doing. I want them to tell me. Otherwise, my Ne takes over and I worry myself into anxiety. Process more than product. If I take up a creative hobby...art, cooking, etc...I know I can look up videos from experts and try to follow their methods exactly. That's a Te way of going about it, tho. I want to learn through process, even at the expense of the product. Experimenting and learning through observation is at least half the fun. Homeschooling. The cliches about homeschooling are mostly about religious homeschoolers who are invested in insulating themselves in order to maintain a particular world view. They represent the worst, not the best. Secular homeschooling, which I did for 5 years when my kids were in elementary grades, is the absolute shiznit. All of life becomes education and exploration. As long as we're keeping an eye on grade standards, we're free to prioritize however we see fit. A life defined by freedom and learning...an INTP dream come true!

Please more xNTP Videos

Just bought a T-shirt for an INTP... "Introverted, but will discuss skinks". And with such deep dives into specific subjects it had me wondering - where is the Ne? Is it in the tabs? Coz they are never closed. And why is everything saved on the desktop ("where it can be found") and just as loose files - NO FOLDERS! Anyhow, I would love some videos on how to recognise the functions in action. And which are the most detectable functions of each type (like, for me, INTP least displays Ne). You have the best content, x INFJ

Interesting. When I was a much younger man, I realized something. Rules exist in an art for two reasons. First, they act as the scaffolding to learn to do the art properly. Second, they serve as the milestone that marks when you no longer need them.

Great video. Love your content.

Great video! I felt identified

Damn! You’re so informative. Previously when I asked what your type is, you didn't answer clearly but now I gotcha!😉 Just got typed by an expert that follows CS Joseph, and it came out INTP. It's been a great struggle for me my whole life and I didn't know these problems are even real! I thought I'm overly different than everyone as I kept struggling to find my real type. Love your videos and you too seem to be stating the exact same things but with in-depth details. Really appreciate the efforts. Thank you and love from Bangladesh.🇧🇩❤

Wow! Personal experiences I could relate with are, I was good at listening to songs and playing them on piano from a young age and as I understood the 'system' (or rather, became aware of it's existence) aka relative pitch, I could replicate simple tones on many instruments that I haven't learned before, pretty quick. And I couldn't understand how people couldn't see how it was possible and they'd say I'm a natural and while it did make me feel good it also made me feel..misunderstood or lonely or frustrated to some degree cause it just seemed like 'simple but beautiful logic' that I couldn't get across to other people. I always compare a new story I like with the one I love the most (this one, I didn't just read, I studied, unintentionally). I'd see similar characters (most people would say extremely different), make connections and predict character arcs which almost always turn out right. It's almost insane how the same idea can be written in multitude of ways disguised in different forms. People would completely disregard some things I say, and when I explain to them how I reached that conclusion they would go 'wow! that makes so much sense' The ability to notice systems is something I take pride in. Because one day I would accidentally find out this system has a name and it's something that a lot of people are 'taught' and I'd feel closer to the art on a deeper level.. and of course the irony of still reaching nowhere with it.

truly what you said about intp and why they are attracted to mbti is a great insight. it makes sense that we would try to ti our way out of fe using mbti. As always great content

This was all incredibly accurate but the last point about turning every problem into a puzzle rang especially true. There was a bout of time where I was feeling pretty stuck and unhappy, and I didn't realize it at the time but I was absolutely treating it like a puzzle. It was like I was trying to logic my way through that feeling, trying to understanding and psychoanalyze myself to figure out what was the missing piece. Which led me further down the rabbit hole of learning about psychology. I think this tendency can be somewhat of a strength though because that mindset allowed me to approach that unhappy feeling through a relatively detached and action-oriented perspective, trying to resolve it rather than just wallowing in the feeling.

😁 enjoyed this. Doing my part for the algorithm

My man you've got us utterly pegged. Kudos.

I wanted so hard to be an INTJ because they seem more interesting and efficient and successful. But I related to everything in this video so much! I'm definitely an INTP.

Well surmised. In order to have more views maybe think about accommodating various preferences which are focused on or portrayed in the mainstream "youtubers" or media. Most of the known populace are sensing in nature so you would do well to add more things that "capture the eye" for the sake of the senses. Just make sure that there still remains a sense of coherence with the visual illustrations (of course I am not referring to the actual words said ordered in a way to make meaningful sentences, I am referring to the visual aesthetic. Motion and flow.) Motion when grand gestures or even ideas are mentioned, flow to bring context and coherence to the table and focus with concentration when details are mentioned. Some people can take in a lot of "finer" details at once while others need "grand gestures" a great sequel to Romeo and Juliet perhaps? I hope you get my point. Keep at what you're doing while broadening your aesthetical focus.

Haven't hit play yet, but I'm loving ur videos! I'm INTP and one of my favorite things ever, besides my routines, is making plans to socialize...and then the other party cancels. Because it a) proves to others I was totally down to hang out and b) I don't actually have to do it and it's not my fault, and I can lie and say aww shucks I was really looking forward to it. I wasn't. 😏

As an INFP watching this I wasn't expecting to be called out on my 50 open tabs...

As an INTP, I recommend you make videos about more common personality types😁 - New subscriber but love your videos!

Re suggestions to expand the number of subscribers, you could ask your viewers to share your content with someone who could find it *useful* or *entertaining* etc. I don’t remember if you do, many content providers don’t specify.

it is true that I jump from task to other tasks so as to finish them all at once it's quite fun

You mention musical instruments as being a 'fixed system'...another is foreign language study. The rules of the game (grammar, most vocabulary) don't change much. Learn the rules, then adapt it for creative use. The learning curve aspect is also very true about that, too.

"& yes u can use that line in court"🤣perfection. & Damnit man, now I want 2 email u w/ a bullet list of questions 4 u 2 answer about what all u have done 2 trigger the algorithm 4 ur channel & not stop til you've at least 2x ur sub count.

I am currently taking a computer integrated manufacturing class and for me it is very satisfying to learn the code which may be hard to learn but once I do I can count on that knowledge to almost always work

Turning everything into a puzzle makes so much sense now, As someone that is bilingual with English being my second language, when trying to translate or switch from one language to another, it feels like puzzle pieces fit when I find the perfect word or meaning in the other language, one of the most satisfying moments when speaking to someone, I even pause until the proper word is found and fits perfectly into place

I think it’s that I need structure but I like spontaneity so spontaneity within an established structure is optimum but I’m in that state like 3% of the time 😂 the rest is free-fall

Spot On! :)

"Between the tabs". Excellent concept. Will use.

Idea to get more viewers. Plot on a graph which videos get the most videos. Then chart the differences between them. Control by performing a factor analysis and determine the P value. This should teach you what works and what doesn't work. Additionally it may help you figure out the KZfaq algorithm. Once that is figured out it should fall into your hands.

I've got Plato's allegory of the cave, the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy on Introspection, the weather, tetris and, well, this. I've come to a point in my intellectual journey where almost all answers have a wide array of unexplored implications innately attached to their very essence, in such a way that these "conclusions" cannot exist without previous ones already being true. Thus I have started trying to not lose my mind in my investigation of Metaphysics, trying to seperate mind from reality, trying to not go insane with radical skepticism, finding out what matters to me in acceptance of the unknown/unknowable, trying get a satifying explanation of what knowledge is, what mind is, what reality is. I find any other task than this to merely be a form of keeping up the status quo - that being a unexamined and brutally unsatisfying existance. Philosophy is really just where my starting point is, as any other point just leads me back to it by an inevitable trail of questions summoned by assumptions that I can't live with, I just cant accept them and ignore them like other's seem to. And I've considered destroying my faith in every belief I have and seeing where I can get. 'Dunno of it's a great idea, might do it. Thank god for coffee.

Thank you so much for mentioning the ungodly number of tabs that I WILL get back to.

I've been back and forth on if I'm an INTP or an ENTP for a while now and I think this vid finally split the difference for me. Somedays I see myself as Ne/Fe and so I think I'm an ENTP and others Ti/Si.

This is perfect.

I love the way you talking.

Wow, this is scarily accurate!

3:53 Damn, this was so insightful. I feel that I'm productive but in an unfocused way, and I was questioning whether I'm an INTP because I have a load of finished projects to show. -Procrastination- Elite multitasking

Casinos (Vegas), stripclubs and Pattaya. We love these types of things bc we can exit our head and engage in social interaction in real time and love seeing a system that's outside of the norm. (Im walking around the casino now for the last 2 hours people watching)

I'm an ISFJ married to an adorable, tenderhearted INTP. You are so right on about my amazing husband.

4:20 INTP here, have 83 tabs open right now. Sometimes I have more open but I'm not on a wiki walk atm.

Nice video! You have done it again Love who. 💜 So, T - S is concerned with knowledge organization. F - S is affect organization? If so, I claim, x - S must be concerned with "phenomena" organization ( both T and F, avoiding "that debate" between facts and values). T and F are interested in "psychical causation", whether logical or physical is pretty irrelevant. The F dom personality may have a "need for phenomena", which may be fancy speak for states of being, in relation to a self-concept/world-view. One might "get the T" of this by reading Merlau-Ponty and Humes guillotine and by understanding human motivation. Engaging with the impressions butter* can make on a toasted sandwich, something alongside that can arise. An individual can experience the necessity and contingency that ideas have in relation to "a phenomenal field". N "imagines" x in a plot (oh what it would be like to do x) vs S sense ("x is amazing") as a way of reality-testing, thus producing Nx array: a toasty tasty snack/ an assembly of lettuce and tomatoe/ the object existing for-itself despite politicosomatic intolerance toward gluten/ ideosyncratic sui generic sandwiches compiled as much for the phenomenal engagement of a "happy meal" postscript as for satiation, etc. So, if S sensory experience entails engaging with at least one of the previous sandwiches, then N intuition experience maps an F or T/ phenomena x arrangement of S to make Sx, such that Sx can be an interpretation of S that satisfies a need for phenomena ie psychical causation, on top of the primary need for food, which put the whole system in motion.

That is the most comfortable looking hoodie I have ever seen.

I’m an INTP, and I approve this message!

To answer your last question, you would probably have more subscribers if you uploaded more videos about the more common personality types.

I have a minimum of 40 tabs open at any given point. One time I decided to close quite a few until there were 20 remaining. Within days it was back up to 50.

I've sorta considered as being an intp, that we're eclectic transmuters. Whatever interests us, we bring together the best of the such and create an amalgam that remains logical to us, possibly sitting in paradox, until we've developed it enough to materialise the knotted connections so others can follow. But a lot of this, remains unseen or repressed due to general societal value and our own internal fits of conflicting logic and counterintuitive frameworks that haven't been provided the language to understand itself.

aahhh....this is where I live. So nice to be understood.

Can you give an example of analyzing a fixed system to use it creatively? As Ne, it's hard for me to break the association of creativity with open systems/sandbox. Like it's not translating. Thank you.

A suggestion- Market your videos as informational asmr. You have a great voice for it. This may help you increase your views. I saw a museum history channel (I do not remember the channel's name) do it too.

KZfaq shorts are one of the best ways to get a lot of new viewer for sure, however it doesn’t yield hardly any money it’s basically just a broken way to get tons of views.

that sentiment it what Mirandola called 'the quest for knowledge" in the 'Oration on the Dignity of Man" It's not even a quest for the truth, I cant speak for INTPs, but you reach an age at which you realize, 'everyone has their own truth' and work around that. At least personally, very methodical, i cant just accept knowledge or 'truths', i have to test them out.

The number of INTP TRUTHS you cover in this video is INCREDIBLE! 👏 But this is ALL likely lost on non-INTPs (or those of a related type, which includes few, if any, Sensors in my personal INTP opinion)

Yes to puzzles! One of my online programming classes ended with one guy having an issue with his code, but the teacher said to bring it up next class because we had run out of time. So I emailed that student and begged him to send me his files so I can figure it out 😅(turned out to be a misnamed variable)

If we don’t get an entj video soon I will wreck havoc on the British isles

Try implementing music from every known genre. I would explain more, but I feel like you’ll understand what I mean.

The problem in getting more views and subscribers. The thing is, I think, you hv to appeal to the the taste of the mass. To appeal to the mass you’ll hv to change into something worse, lot of generalisation, streotyping, funny but boring popular things, repetitive stuffs, bcoz that’s just how things work. Everything that is good is always underrated. Your contents are amazing, very informative and your ideas feel original. You are awesome and I hope you keep doing splendid work.

i love your asthetics

Hmm, now I'm questioning my type, again. lol A lot of what you said in this INTP video describes me, yet I'm typed as an ISFJ. I always have tabs for my tabs open, yet it's organized in such a way that makes sense to me. I need to know everything, details upon details. I don't like conventional work schedule, freedom and flexibility are important. However, I enjoy helping jobs such as behavior therapy. Are there any pointers on typing oneself besides using the free quizzes online? 🤔
