You won me over, when it came to how ENTJ communicate love. It felt like I am watching myself in the mirror. Those were the same cliches that I use. I didn't know that I was communicating love in those pirticular arguments. Hopless ENTJs and pirticularly ENTJ girls and women. Only God can save us.

[gabbyhinds]

You called me out left and right . I'm an ENTJ female and this was extremely helpful for me.

I hate being an ENTJ from every 100 people i meet i would meet an ENTJ who would make me feel normal while the rest see me as a freak.
I got used to shutting my mouth up so i don't ruin my friendships, but then people would say this guy probably doesn't like us he always listens and never speaks.

As an ENTJ this video helped me so much. It helped put all the things I can feel in my gut into actionable steps for growth. I really like the idea of developing my inner world by going inside my own mind. It's so nice to have videos like this to go beyond the couple of pages of MBTI descriptions.

I am amazed how neutral this video is. I am an INFJ with a very close ENTJ. It helped me understand when at some point and I have to say - luckily we are both goal oriented and willing to grow. If both are healthy INFJ and ENTJ - ENTJ is such a powerful force to ignite the INFJ's sleeping blood since we're too defensive and hyper thinkers. While healthy INFJ can help ENTJ see their blind spots too. -- so seeing this video now is I'd say - amazing work.

I try to not get bogged into these things but I think one of my biggest flaws is I have some of the most AGGRESSIVE negative self talk when things aren't "clicking" its a problem, perspective really and truly is the antidote. Think big pic, think direction, talk to people who take a softer/slower view.

Meditation is key. Subliminals also help.

Thank you I have to say at the end I will definitely take more consideration of everyone around me before I make any kind of decisions and have more empathy about what they’re feeling and no the person I think that’s the most important part if you know the person then you can guarantee better results

I can attest to having the same weakness of impatience that's been attributed often to ENTJs with underdeveloped Ni. I've spent the last few years of my life in this primary-tertiary loop and I came really close multiple times to blowing crucial opportunities to advance my career and my undergraduate education. It sometimes amazes me how taxing and relieving it is to force myself to always slow down on a daily basis even for the small decisions I take. I've relied too much on tertiary Se to pick up new and exciting projects just to satisfy this illusion of being busy and productive, sometimes to the point that I abandon projects that would've helped me in the long run.


Thanks for the video! You guys have given me something to work on.

[nickyable]

SO DANG ON POINT. Everything. Especially the give and take on love part

[ashi]

Idk why I was given ENTJ.
Because to me ENTJs come across as know-it-all people whereas I don’t think I know everything. I do try to, yes. I have an interested in almost everything and try to learn about everything as much as possible and to debate about it.

[heathercameron]

I think this is the most helpful ENTJ description I've seen yet. Nice one 👌 Thanks so much for posting.

WOW so true. Effectiveness is a top priority. I find ineffective time wasted. I allowed my 10 year old to take over and got addicted to over indulgence and sensory pleasures. I avoided the emotional dragons for a long period. In previous relationships I often come off as cold hearted, distant or emotionally detached. Recently, I found a INTP. We seem to mirror one another.

[saminarose]

I’m making myself extremely busy with work and study! I’m already burning out!
I really want to understand people’s responses to my behaviors. It’s killing me because I can’t predict people’s reactions correctly many times! There’s no set rule and I have a hard time predicting illogical hurtful reactions of others. I feel like I’m surrounded by people who stab me in the back! 😢 I even let my 10 year old and probably even the 3 year old function hijack me and it’s caused me a BIG BIG mess I need to clean up! 😭 I’m hating emotions. I never want to feel them again now!

[antonkuranov]

Very well explained! Especially the part about love. Unfortunately the MBTI description contain a lot of clichés where it was difficult to recognize myself. Yes, I'm a leader in my job, but neither a commander nor a dominant and relentless business shark.

[AdaughterofEloheim]

So spot on it is scary... Can we get addicted to sensations of never ending knowledge? Like obsessed with always wanting to learn more?

[mserth]

How I let my 10 year old of sensations hijacked my happiness is by being impulsive at times, for example, over indulging in food/ alcohol or making decisions that make me feel good in the moment, when I know its not in my best intrest to do so (and usually these actions are against my intuition which are more often than not spot on). I also find myself ignoring my intuition because I have a need for things to make sense and be rational. This process hijacks my happiness because it causes me to feel guilty, irrational and just flat out stupid at times lol.

[wwvlfwq]

Great advice and you rarely find that on YT lol. Awesome insight and all 100% true it's crazy lol. Excellent video!!

[CHARELLESNO]

I AM A #ENTJ. 1% of women. :)

I found out more about my ennea-type by doing research online. It's been used for hundreds of years. I think its very effective and smart tool to use when hiring employees or for self reflection to analyze your behaviors & change your short comings. Building a stronger character for yourself it takes training, humility all ego aside to get amazing results out of this for you're future amazing self.

[ThiBrunette]

This whole video was spot on and an eye opener for me. It hit the nail on the head

[prayerblack]

There's an error around 1:06 where the title says "ENFJ" instead of "ENTJ".
Still, that's an effective car model metaphor.
