It's interesting how this video has more views than any other personality type...we really are curious about understanding the world and ourselves

[DMJ]

"Done is better than perfect".
That's what i needed! Sometimes i end up thinking and planning too much, exhausting myself before i even start the work.

[actionmethod]

Sometimes I push people away on purpose because I know they won't be happy with me. And I don't want to be the reason for someone's sadness.

[AsiyaIammuah]

Right now, I'm letting my introverted feeling get the best of me and I've been a shut-in only leaving the house when absolutely necessary. It's been so long since I've been effective at something, which makes matters worse but watching this has given me great insight. Good job personality hacker.

I am an INTJ-T and I've started telling others that I am the Avocado of people. I am rough and hard on the outside, but soft and vulnerable inside. I am an acquired taste that not everyone will enjoy but the ones who do will love and keep coming back for. I am complex and full of flavor, a little bitter and no doubt I can be salty. I don't pair well with everyone, however when I do pair well it is better then good... it's magical.

[DinaStrange]

Done is better than perfect? NO WAY! Perfectly done is what we want :P

[nicolaimatthew]

I've been a shut-in for almost 1 year and this video made me realize that my introverted feeling is in control most of the time. I've been on a streak of inaction and indulging in addictions, it's like a loop. I now understand what I need to do to fix this

[dukeofjax]

This issue on love is this, INTJ’s will tell you about how they’re wired, yet others still refuse to accept this difference and instead act as if we are the ones always required to change to the “norm”.

[cassiewash-bowman]

I HATE public interactions. people are irrational it bothers me to my core.

[christopherus]

I’ve been looping around for years trying to figure out what I’m supposed to be doing with my life and not finding anything that seems perfect or that I feel like I’m “meant” to do. Consequently, I’ve been locked in an introspective spiral of doubt and inaction. The description of the intrusive Authenticity function really hit home.

[Asmo]

I've ended up in some of the worst possible positions in life by letting my procrastinating nature to take hold. And my inability to act or live in the moment. I made a relationship my ultimate project, and exhibited pretty much the full INTJ spectrum as I picked it apart. Locked on to this singular goal, everything else fell away. As the other areas of life caught fire, I ignored them until they pulled the rest of the joy out of my life. As you would expect, being the object in the INTJ microscope takes its toll. I can tell you how deep the self indulgent rabbit hole goes. Violating all my own personal boundaries in the process. Much to my own detriment. Initiative is my new anti-me mechanism. I ask myself does this improve my quality of life? Is it positive? Can this hurt me? No? Then do it. Today. I still struggle with the loss of my ultimate project, and the love that came with it. It's still the problem I'll never be able to solve now. And the future that would have brought. But I understand me better now. And I don't feel crazy any more. Which, I have a feeling a lot of INTJ's that go against their internal makeup do. Good luck out there fellow ponderers. I know at times you'll need it. Learn to live in the moment at times. Even if it feels impossible. The person you love may need you too.

[Edzia]

This just made everything clear! I finally understand why I keep on reminiscing, why I constantly introspect, why I think of people who wrong me in the past. It is my wrongly used introverted feeling! Also, I an see now how I grew, how and when I learned to just get things done and accomplish. I am really impressed with this video!

[AnimexBoy]

Seriously I'm mind blown, I've read hundreads of articles and many other videos
But this perspective of view is quite original and very explicit / easy to grasp

[buidseach]

OMG, this is me, my 10 year old process has stopped me even going outside with anxiety disorder and I prefer to prevent getting hurt by not doing anything and concentrating on trying to feel good !

[karmer]

Personally the most helpful part of this video was as I understand - don't make the project perfect before releasing it (because it may never be ready), release it as soon as possible and then try make it perfect. And seeing you project work in real life will be the best feeling you ever had :)

[eclipsesjerhail]

This was an excellent analysis. I feel more motivated to move my ideas into the real world as I have been spending too much time with 'Authenticity' closing myself off and protecting myself against emotional pain with a wall of doing that which feels good instead of doing the right thing. I'm really glad to be updated, thanks for the hard work and thanks for the survey.

[RoopaDudleyPaintings]

I am INTJ Artist. I am known to be authentic in my work which is my pride and joy.. I am very comfortable in my skin even when I have to bare my soul for all to see.

[TheOfficialTab]

If anyone is wondering if the "introverted feelings" can really get that bad: 2 years, that's how long I'd stay indoors and just prepare for the worst. I ruined relationships out of the extreme desire to protect myself from emotional struggles, thankfully I was able to see that something was wrong with me; I attempted to search for a way out of that problem.

You've gotta learn how to not be so defensive, and that putting yourself out there with people you can trust is a good thing and allows you to grow as a person. I'm an artist, and for those two years I didn't try anything new, I didn't allow for criticism, and from all of that I didn't get any better at what I was doing. The effectiveness of raising my skill level went to 0. That's not a joke, I didn't improve AT ALL. Don't let your "introverted feelings" get the better of you.

After finding out what I was doing wrong, getting reacquainted with the formula for success, (which is a lot of failure and the attempt to find what causes that failure) and finally putting myself out there and getting some thick skin about things, a thousand times more stable as well as successful.

[kamimesa]

I can predict human behavior in any environment. Now I m focusing on becoming data scientist. Perfection really eats up time, get it done, learn from errors and move on to next project.

There was a time at work I became so pissed, I decided to show my real self and was ready to quit anytime. My 10 year old passenger was not in the picture anymore. I was not afraid what my boss or everyone would say, I questioned them and had my plans implemented whatever it took. I showed them that they are wrong and how my ideas were right. I did it because I was angry. I was rude and arrogant. This continued for 6 months. But in the end, my boss praised me and said I was smart. He liked me a lot, he gave me a promotion. I lost all my friends though. No one wants to talk to me.
