Why Traditional Routines Don’t Work for ENFPs

We ENFPs might struggle with consistency because the typical “stick-to-the-schedule” advice feels like a trap. In this video, we’ll explore why it’s so hard to make routines work for creative, spontaneous types—and how to build a flexible, meaningful routine that actually supports your goals

►My BOOK, The ENFP Calling ◄
One reviewer said: “I have read many, many self-help and personal development books over the years…I have never encountered anything that felt so personally actionable, validating and relatable as this book.”

It's available everywhere in print, digital, and audiobook and includes a bonus 10 day motivational audio program specifically for ENFPs.

Because we like to explore new things rather than focus on just one path.

I was just talking to myself about this yesterday. Most of the population are SJ types who keep routines like get up early, pray, read, exercise, have breakfast. But if I get up early to pray and read then that would just put me back to sleep lol. Lately, I've been going on Youtube to learn something first thing in the morning and that helps me be productive while I'm still in the process of waking up. I used to feel bad that I couldn't do what I hear people say I "should do", but now I don't feel so bad about it. I just do what works best for me as an ENFP. Here are my personal notes from Dan's video:
1:15 - Most types admire in others what they can't do
2:45 - Focus on the thing you actually want to do an let that drive your routine
5:39 - Your routine will vary based on what you're trying to do
6:55 - Figure out what components of a routine works best for you
8:35 - Summary
Thanks alot Dan, I appreciate you. I bought your book and listened to about 80% of it while delivering for FedEx. I got fired for making Youtube videos so now I'm all in on this Youtube journey 💪🏾

This is one of the best pieces of advice for ENFPs routines I have ever heard. Thank you! I’ve got to get The ENFP Calling.

Whaaat, you are part Croatian?
What a surprise for this Croatian to hear this, and to know you went to Zagreb.
Thanks for this video for a good morning - and hugs from Kvarner, Croatia 😊
Have a great trip!

Very good! Focus on the tasks I really want to do, and keep it going! Thanks. I don’t like the calendar filled with all the stuff that is not mine.

Simplify...you most likely will not be consistent...just focus on things that you want to do and go all in...but just find one thing only that gonna make you exited everyday...and for a break you can go do things that you need to do...its weird routine, but most likely it works with Enfp

Do you take medication for your ADHD? Wondering how that might effect ENFPs with adhd
